“Organizers call the ‘un-conferences’,” says the teaser line for the article titled “This one time…at BarCamp…”, “with no PowerPoint, unpaid guest speakers and lots of audience participation. Find out how they’re spreading across Canada, and beyond.”

So begins an article over at IT Business that features an interview with some of us involved with Toronto BarCamp and DemoCamp activities: David Crow, Jay Goldman, Bryce Johnson and Yours Truly. We did a phone interview with the article’s author, Grant Buckler, last Tuesday before DemoCamp 8.
