Hi all, The list has been quiet the last week or two. Reading the last few notes, it seems we have some promising possibilities, but nothing set yet. Any ...
We have a small list of possible venues. All the sites have various strengths and weaknesses. After some of the key players in the venue selection process...
I recently conned my good friend and illustrator extraordinary, Greg Damiani, into coming up with some graphical suggestions for the BarCampBoston3 logo. He...
If you want to go Red Sox themed, why not have a silhouetted baseball player in white hitting a more ball-shaped BarCamp fireball? Also, after seeing Austin...
I really like the lobster one - it's uniquely New England and a visually interesting shape - and it seems that a logo without a built-in color background might...
Hi folks, Quick update on the venue situation for BarCamp Boston 3: - No chance of getting the entire Stata Center in the next few months. Getting a room or...
I'm talking with one of my contacts at Google who may be able to help out in some way. I'll keep the list posted once I learn more. -- Steve Pomeroy ...
Could we rent a big wedding tent and tables and set up in a public park (the half shell!) or something like that? http://www.atent4rent.com/event_tents.html Or...
What about renting a yacht!? This yacht charter company has a couple of vessels that can seat 350+ people. http://www.bostonyachtcharters.com/chartere.html I...
Other possabilities are art galleries or museums (maybe won't have small rooms though). Libraries. Other colleges? BU? BC? NE? Umass? Emerson? Mass art? MFA...
I guess the Computer Museum is gone right -- that shows how long it's been since I've lived in Boston ! ... small rooms ... Tufts? Art ... or something...
Hello, The Computer Museum is part of the Museum of Science now. While Reed has good suggestions, one issue with a lot of them is that they wouldn't be able to...
Just some info I found, will add some more pages if I find them. http://del.icio.us/reedhedges/bcb08 In particular the Museum of Science has some bigger rooms...
I was talking with friends in Portland who are organizing a Kid Camp at Bar Camp, mostly organized by the kids, with adult supervision. My son is very, very...
I don't have any little ones, but think this is a rockin idea! Also, what about http://hacketyhack.net/ ? iirc, it had a good run in the Boston area, so maybe...
Shimon and I will be making site visits to two plausible BarCampBoston sites tomorrow. One is located in Central Square and the other in the Davis Square...
Folks, It's time to choose among our venue options and pick a date. The viable venue choices at this time are the Cambridge YMCA (Central Square), Matignon...
Hey all- Greg was kind enough to update the logos with a number of color variations, and also add a new Boston Red Sox styled design. It's taken me awhile to ...
After the site visits, Matignon High School is ahead by a nose right now. We have to do a little research on our Internet options at both venues. As for the...
I slightly prefer the redsox-style logo with the non-baseball fireball. The one with baseball stitching seems to suggest baseball a little too strongly, as if...
... My vote is for the second-from-top, (red fireball, blue shirt) but I'd change the "B" back to the normal B for that font. Subtle is good. When doing the...
I wanted to follow up with a little more detail about the venue options and tradeoffs. 1. Cambridge YMCA PROS: T-accessible, cool/unusual space (theatre + 2...
I would be all over the Y (particularly on the "funky-space" front), but the lack of projectors and wifi are pretty serious detractors. Matignon does sound...
I also really like the 3c lobster, but the 2c version of the baseball w/o stitching is nice as well, so I can live with it :). I'm not thrilled about the navy...
