BarCamp Manchester 2014

It’s been a week since the end of BarCamp Manchester(#bcmcr). This was certainly one of the best events I have attended. For those of you who have no idea what a BarCamp is, I highly recommend you to attend one.

BarCamp is an unconference conference. It was a two-day overnight event took place between the 18^th and 19^th October 2014 at SpacePortX, Manchester. Participants were the ones to decide what talks/sessions were available, and which ones to attend. The sessions could be as formal or informal as you like. You don’t need to be a geek or a technical person, the sessions could be about anything, whether it’s about games, programming, or just random non-technical topics; they could be traditional PowerPoint presentations, general discussions, or workshops. You don’t have to deliver a session, you could just be an attendee for the whole event. Even though it was an overnight event, I must admit that I did not stay overnight, I prefer the comfort of my own bed!

My very first blog – the start of le space

To start my very first blog I must thank BarCamp Manchester to give me this opportunity to make a start. I had an idea of writing blogs a couple of weeks ago but never had the motivation until attended a blogging discussion during BarCamp today. As promised, I will keep you all updated via twitter, which is now @lwyso.
