Last year, about 30 scientists and tech folks got together on the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus at the first Barcamp in Cambridge. The whole day was a great success, so I think we should do it again.

One and all are invited to a day of talks, demos and discussions at Barcamb 2, on Friday 1st August, 2008 at the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus

The Barcamp concept is simple: there is no predetermined schedule or invited speakers, only a collection of awesome people ready to participate and contribute. Last year, we had a wide range of talks and demos from some excellent speakers. I think everyone enjoyed the day last year: we had some great feedback, including a word or two from Tim O'Reilly based on Ian's excellent coverage. There are some photos up on Flickr, too.
