WhereCampPDX 2009: Sessions
Metro Regional Center

IMPORTANT: Please add yourself as an attendee for the unconference so we can plan accordingly.

WhereCampPDX is a free unconference focusing on all things geographical. This informal meeting of minds welcomes all geo-locative enthusiasts, anyone who asks “where am I” or feels the need to “know their place”.

An unconference is a conference planned by the participants, we all convene together, plan sessions, and have break-outs into sessions. This gives everybody an opportunity to bring to the table the things that interest them the most and lets us talk about new topics that are still new and exploratory. Part of what is important to hearing new voices and getting new ideas is lowering barriers to participation – this event is free and it is driven by the participants.

WhereCampPDX 2009: Game Day
Backspace

WhereCamp is a free, open unconference for all geo-technology enthusiasts.

The game day is a chance to get out around town, and try out different locative and urban games and activities. Last year we did Pac-Manhattan, Cruel 2B Kind, and a disaster preparedness mapping activity. Check our website for details on this year's game schedule.

If you'd like to host an activity in connection with the event, please contact us via the mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/wherecamp-pdx

We will base at Backspace, and games will issue forth from there.
