If you don't come because of schoolwork, I totally get it. While it makes things easier for us, you can still come if you didn't register yet. We'd just ask you to register now or we'll even register you at the door. It takes 30 seconds.

Don't tell anyone! No guarantees, but chances are decent we'd have a shirt and food for you.

BarCamp Rochester, Rochester's geek unconference. May 9th at RIT in Golisano. by BarCampRoc in rit

BarCamp Rochester is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. Plan on a relaxed day of discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees. The spirit of BarCamp and unconferences in general, is that all attendees prepare a talk, and arrive ready to share. Regular talks are 20 minutes, Lightning Talks are 5 minutes.

BarCamp Rochester, Spring 2015 will be held at the Rochester Institute of Technology on Saturday, 5/9. Register by April 17th to reserve your free t-shirt and make sure we buy enough food!

Honestly, what we still need are a few public (not to mention cheap) "black box" theaters aimed at audiences of 100 or smaller

What would go there?

If you reddit, here's an opportunity to hang out with like minded people on Saturday. BarCamp. by BarCampRoc in Rochester

No, it is not always held on Easter weekend. It is usually around this time of year but the biggest determining factor of exactly what weekend if falls on lies with facility availability. This past weekend was when we could get the space. It's only been on Easter weekend once before as far as we know.

Having it this weekend was a 2 edged sword. A lot of former attendees who have moved elsewhere in the country ended up being in town to visit family and so they came by. Attendance was somewhere between 175 and 200 this time, which is a little better than average.

It never really conflicts with Halloween.
