Mashup Camp 2 - Recap
For those who don’t know too much about Mashup Camp, the guidelines serve as a great summary.
Mashup Camp is governed by a few essential principles:
- Whoever comes are the right people.
- Whatever happens is the only thing that could have.
- Whenever it starts is the right time.
- When it is over, it is over.
Winners of the Speed Geeking
#1 - WeatherBonk
#2 - HotCaptcha (+ MeCommerce, something fishy here, perhaps they combined nickels)
There are a ton of pictures from the camp event found on FlickR.
And it looks like I got picked up a few places as well.
- In the background of a picture currently on the frontpage of the Mashup Camp blog, seen here, during a session about “Social Networking for Young People” run by a 16-year-old girl.
- Someone snapped a shot of me during Speed Geeking, where I was demoing SecretPrices.com.
Finally, I’d like to personally thank David Berlind and Doug Gold for organizing the event as well as a quick thanks to the sponsors who made it possible. By the way, the conference was free.
Ideas for next time:
- My first suggestion is to have a time slot allocated for developers to checkout each others mashups. The problem was that those of us who did Speed Geeking both days had no time to see the other developers’ mashups.
- Secondly, a session for Speed Geeking Best Practices… Generally how to market your mashup to people in the five minutes you have. Identifying what is the most important to cover, identifying what you want the audience to take from it, establishing contacts, etc.
