BarCamp recently hit Kenya in a big a way!

Barcamp Nairobi ‘08 is an unconference made up of of technical professionals, Internet enthusiasts, bloggers, designers and other clever people in the Nairobi area who wish to share and learn in an open environment.

Attendees don’t just watch a set list of speakers. They give their own talks. Podcasting. Web standards. Microformats. Gum stick computers. Physical security. Robotics. Evolutionary algorithms. It can be anything. This event is not just for stuffy developer types – one of the best barcamp presentations ever given was about sandwiches. Barcamp is what you make of it.

When: Saturday, June 21
Time: 10am – 5pm (of course, this goes later, and I would stick around for any evening fun and conversation…)
Where: Jacaranda Hotel
