Teacamp 4 Feb 2010

The first teacamp of the year was held on Thursday 4th February, in the cafe at the top of House of Fraser on Victoria Street in London.
The topic was the third Govcamp for UK government, which took place on the 23rd January. I had the pleasure of talking about the day, how it was unorganised and what some of the outcomes were. Turnout was terrific, with lots of new faces.
Don’t worry if you didn’t make it though, because David Wilcox was there with his trusty iPhone to record the whole joyous event.
News of the next Teacamp in March to be announced soon. Make sure you sign up for the alerts!
Happy ‘campers

This site has been set up to make it easier for people to find out about the monthly teacamps which take place in London every month, usually on a Thursday.
Teacamps are a spinoff from the annual government barcamp, or govcamp, which happens every January. There’s a network where stuff relating to that event gets talked about, and a wiki where content is gathered together from the day.
You might be thinking that you’ve now got yet another site to look at, but don’t worry. This is just to let you know when teacamps are happening and what the themes will be. Your best bet is probably to sign up for the email alerts, that way you’ll never have to remember to visit here at all!
Oh, and if anyone wants to design a nice logo for the site, that would be great!
