Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Foo Camp is an annual hacker event hosted by publisher O'Reilly Media. O'Reilly describes it as "the wiki of conferences", where the program is developed by the attendees at the event, using big whiteboard schedule templates that can be rewritten or overwritten by attendees to optimize the schedule; this type of event is sometimes called an unconference. The event started as a joke between Tim O'Reilly and Sara Winge, O'Reilly's VP of Corporate Communications. Sara had always wanted to run a foo bar, an open bar for Friends of O'Reilly, at one of O'Reilly's conferences. That joke morphed into a brainstorm after the dot com bust left O'Reilly with much unused office space in its new buildings, creating the opportunity for Foo Camp. The first FOO Camp was held in October 2003, and had approximately 200 attendees. There was eventually a Foo Bar at the camp. Tim O'Reilly describes the goal of his company as "changing the world by spreading the knowledge of innovators." Foo Camp has evolved into an important mechanism for finding those innovators. O'Reilly asks attendees to nominate new and interesting people to be invited to future camps. (en)
  • Il Foo camp è una riunione annuale di hacker. L'evento, per tradizione non strutturato e senza un programma predefinito, è ospitato in strutture mobili messe a disposizione dall'editore Tim O'Reilly. La partecipazione è solo su invito. O'Reilly descrive un Foo Camp come una "conferenza wiki" in quanto il programma è sviluppato dagli stessi partecipanti usando una grande lavagna sulla quale ciascuno può apportare modifiche necessarie ad ottimizzare la pianificazione delle diverse discussioni. Finalità di un Foo Camp è di attirare sempre nuove persone che con il loro contributo possono aumentare la conoscenza della casa editrice sulle nuove tecnologie incoraggiando lo scambio di informazioni e facendo crescere soggetti di particolare interesse per il futuro della O'Reilly.
