Also, I’d like to give a big thank you to the organizers of this event. I expect it to be another memorable BarCamp, just like the first. The planners are: Eric Downs of DownsDesign, Matt Secoske of nimblelogic, Megan Hunt of Princess Lasertron, Dusty Davidson of BrightMix, and Jeff Slobotski of SPN.
