Barcamp Kenya

[UPDATE: Wanna know exactly what a BarCamp is? Check out this location]

Tomorrow I will be very privileged to attend a really cool event at Strathmore University. I may have to skive class to attend but this will definitely be worth it! I can’t wait.

BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees. **Everyone should come prepared to stand up and talk – this is interactive**

This is the second BarCamp being held in Kenya.

The first one was held on 31st March 2007.
