Digital Scarborough is presenting BarCamp Scarborough in a few days time. This is an event loosely based on the principles of BarCamp, looking for people from the world of business and people studying all aspects of computing and digital media to come along and discuss issues and raise ideas with like-minded people.
This event is being held at the University of Hull’s Scarborough Campus. Initially there will be eight, twenty-minute, slots available per stream to people who have an issue they want to talk about, a piece of technology they want to shower praise upon or simply need a soap-box for that axe they need to grind.
Since interest in speaking has been a little bit low, I may need to prepare some kind of discussion to share with the world – and by world, I mean probably about 15 people.
So what am I going to talk about (if I do)? I think I am going to pickup from where Chris Spooner left off, and talk about various web debates such as design below the fold (which seems an issue which business folk in Scarborough do not seem to want to grasp), opening links in new windows and designing for older browsers.
If you want to check out more information, or even sign up, head on over to the official BarCamp Scarborough event on the Digital Scarborough website.
