If you’re attending BarCamp Leeds, I need YOU. I’d love to know what you’ve been up to recently, and what better way to find out than for you to tell me (and everyone else) as part of an open mic “my last project” session.

Great day at Barcamp Manchester
Barcamp Manchester, held yesterday at the MEN Media HQ, was great and made it clear to me once again that there’s a great web community up here in the North. A very exciting place to be at the moment, and I’m convinced things here will only get better. Barcamps are always an opportunity to meet …
Daniel Morris: UK Teens & the Web at Barcamp Manchester
Dan Morris’ session on UK Teens & the Web was one of my favourites of the day, which you can see from my frantically scribbled notes (below). Dan’s working for a semi-autonomous BBC unit which produces online content for teenagers, and had some really interesting insights to share from his experience and some research they’d …

BarCamp Manchester. Why would you not. # Travel, is that not the first axis. Let’t join in. (Must not twitter when inebriated. -Ed)
Good turn out for the first BarCamp Manchester. Looking forward to the day ahead. # Great talk from Dan Morris on the BBC’s work with teens. Waiting nervously for my slot on WordPress now. # BarCamp Manchester has decamped to the bar to disintegrate. Well done to Paul Robinson for pulling and holding the day …

So a quick round up of my first BarCamp experience at BarCamp Leeds: brilliant.
Tom Smith: Things you don’t know, but might, at BarCamp Leeds 2007
Tom Smith, of Everything Ability, gave an entertaining & refreshing talk for the last of my BarCamp Leeds sessions. A wonderful roll call, reminder and rallying cry for what he felt were great but neglected ideas things.
Simon Wheatley: Introduction to WordPress at BarCamp Leeds 2007
My session for BarCamp Leeds was on “An Introduction to WordPress”, and I put together a nice graphical presentation for it… only to find the laptop playing up and unable to connect to the screen!
Mark Rushworth & Dominic Hodgson: SEO Clinic at BarCamp Leeds 2007
Around the campfires late at night, old Leeds GeekUppers tell tales of the legendary SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) clash of Hodgson and Rushworth at a Leeds GeekUp many moons ago. Apparently Hodgson is (I’m hoping someone can fill me in). Apparently Rushworth is (not sure, I wasn’t there). Anyway, it was heated, let’s just leave …

Mark Sailes: TV 3.0 at BarCamp Leeds 2007
For me, BarCamp Leeds started with Mark Sailes‘ session on TV 3.0. Mark’s session was one of my favourite sessions of the day and centred on his contention that TV needs to enter a third phase (1st phase: black & white, 2nd phase: colour). TV 3.0 is all about audience participation and analysis (this linked …
