Proposed Topics

 

To edit this wiki, the "invite key" is c4mp.

 

(If you see somone doing something similar to you - try and reach out before the event to suggest a joint presentation)

 

EQUIPMENT: There should be projectors available in every room! If you've got a mac, please be sure to bring your DVI to VGA converter. We'll try to have a few available, but there's inevitably a shortage of these little dongles.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Many participants are listing their intended topic of interest on the registration page. But this registration page is not editable. So we've consolidated the topics from the registration page onto the list below.

 

Camp IRC: freenode #barcampnyc3

 

 

  1. Introductory Overview of Asterisk - What is it? Why you cant write software without knowing about it? Why was this voted the 2nd most important open source technology of 2006? Why have IBM had Digium on their top 10 companies to watch for the last 3 years - Dean Collins
  2. Everything To Do With WORDPRESS - Regarded by some as the ultimate blogging platform, Wordpress is a tremendously empowering tool for non-technical web site owners, as well as more demanding corporate users. This session will exchange tips, insights and methods about this premier open-source content management tool. The skill level of the participants in this session will determine the level of detail and complexity to be exchanged - adaptable from novice to expert. Led by William Stratas of Planetcast.
  3. Inelegant SQL for your first year with databases - Sad but true, you needn't master set theory to make ample use of relational databases in your early software years. A thirty minute talk will offer cookbook formulae for getting what you need into and out of a database, without creating a monster you'll hate yourself for later.

Need to remove the acne from photos of your teens? I'll aim to hold forth on digital imaging basics for beginners, and adjust for the level of the crowd. If at all possible, come to this session with a laptop that's got Photoshop or Adobe Creative Suite installed. Failing that, download GimpShop and take it for a spin.
