There are no pre-determined speakers at BarCamp. The schedule is created the morning of the event and YOU, the attendees, are the ones who lead sessions. You are not required to present, but your participation is important.
Now is your chance to talk about what you want to see at BarCamp. Do you want to learn more about WordPress? Community organizing with social media? How to develop iPhone apps? How to make the switch to freelance?

Product/site design process. Not using Photoshop, but the process of how one goes from an idea to a real working site/app/spaceship. Coding is easy; products are hard.
Also… robots.

In a nutshell? I’m interested in the broader social impact of social media, new technology, and social networking.

I’d love to see a discussion, fireside chat, whatever you want to call it, on creating communities from social media. (I’d be willing to help facilitate, even!)

I want to see/hear something totally off-the-wall. I think IGNITE has unequivocally illustrated for Philly that the standard ppt presentation is lacking…I’d love to see some video/lights/lazer/dancingladies talk on SEO, javascript, or some otherwise mundane web-like topic.

How to get social media right.
How to understand the implications of the Cloud as we move beyond Web 2.0.
More on ROI (sorry).

As a developer, building a social site isn’t hard, but building a good one is, but even then it will suck if it isn’t used. So anyone open to talking about how you go from 0-60 with a social site?

Formal presentations are the last thing people want. They are only useful as a prelude to a demo.
Interactive is best. If you are new to Barcamps don’t think you need to be an expert to lead a session. Often the non-expert creates the best session because they engage others with questions.
I for example will be interested in getting peoples input on how we can get consumers engaged in their own health care. How can we use Social media to accomplish that?

I would love a discussion on finding freelance work. That’s the sort of thing that work *very* wel as a multivocal conversation.

How about a writing session for all of us trying to get caught up or stay caught up on NanoWriMo?

- Making the switch to freelancing (especially in this economy)
- Community building
- Wordpress / Drupal / other CMS techniques
- Or more specifically, what are people doing in their choice of CMS to make it easier for clients/users to manage their sites without completely ruining everything.

I’d like to hear about engineering management/project management, and specifically making the transition from individual contributor to manager.
User-centered design is also an interest of mine.

I’d to hear about using technology and social networking in a community service context–for example, organizing a neighborhood watch or disseminating local zoning information.
Also, I think we really need to talk about the constituencies that are excluded when we rely on technology to get the word out and potential solutions.

I would love to discuss mobile applications — both design and usability. Things like location-based tracking, interactive applications and social networking on mobile devices is quickly growing but we’re not quite sure if it’s growing in the right ways.
Also, I love @Michael’s idea about finding freelancing work. What sorts of outlets do you use to search for new opportunities?
