Here’s the Drill…

OK, we have a little better idea of the schedule tomorrow for Atlanta’s first real estate barcamp.

8:45-9:15 – Registration Check-In/Social – As everyone arrives, there is a chance to catch up with folks while getting ready for everything to get cranking… Read more

Later This Evening…

After the Pre-Party event tonight (Thursday, Sept 30th), we will be looking at the schedule for tomorrow and posting up a little more information about how things will run for the event.

Feel free to drop into Spring4th Center this evening from 6-9 to say hi.  We’ll be there mixing it up with anyone that wants to hang out for a little while, as well as getting things set up for tomorrow morning. Read more

We Have PRIZES…

With a little bit of the budget, we had the opportunity to do a little tech shopping today.  And there were a couple of cool bargains that just seemed to dive in the van for the trip home.

First, we have a Kodak play>sport digital camcorder.  It is waterproof to 10′, shoots 1080p video, and accepts a SD card (which is why I had to buy one!).  The battery is removable and rechargeable, so you can get a spare battery and have it ready to go…

And the other cool toy is an Insignia 4.3″ GPS unit.  This little bugger can be connected to the internet, enabling it to get live traffic, do Google searches (based on location) and even Tweet your location and destination if you want it to… Read more

And there will be Partying, too…

We are happy to announce that we will be hosting a “Pre-Event Meet-up/Party/Set-up” at the event venue on Thursday evening, 30th September, 2010.  It will run from about 6-9pm.  We might even run down to the WORLD FAMOUS Varsity for a dog and a Coke. Read more

Where is this at again?

Thanks go out to Randy Barnes for putting together a super cool video showing you EXACTLY how to get to rebarcamp Atlanta.  #rebcATL is at the Spring4th Center, and Randy gives directions for anyone coming from the northern side of town.  It is only two minutes, and he also drops in some good parking tips.

YES, we are still accepting sponsors…

But, T-shirts have to be ordered by Tuesday, September 21st, 2010… so we can’t get you on the T-shirt unless we know by NOON Tuesday.

However, since we are a creative bunch, we are constantly dreaming up new ways for our sponsors to promote their companies to rebarcamp attendees, without making it sound like a NASCAR Trophy ceremony (“The #2 Miller Lite, FaceBook, Twitter Dodge ran exceptionally well today.  the Goodyear tires were sticking like Gorilla Glue.  The Foursquare, SVNGR crew was incredibly fast in the pits, too.  I’d love to thank my sponsors, PayPal and EventBrite, as well as WordPessfor helping to field this great car” – take a big swig of Social Kool-Aid)… Read more

And a little more Location Detail…

Here is a map of the venue area.  Several parking areas are tagged.  More information will be added as it becomes available. Read more

Location is LOCKED in!!!

We are pleased thrilled to announce the new and improved venue for reBarCamp Atlanta…

Spring4th Center

The Spring4th Center is kind of a funky, artistic space in Midtown Atlanta.  If you haven’t guessed, it is near Spring Street and 4th Street…  Check out the link above for more info on parking and other information.  We will have plenty of break-out spaces… we anticipate setting up as many as 7 or 8… Read more

What makes rebarcamp COOL?

The people that show up…

But we have a question…

What do YOU think would make rebarcampAtlanta even cooler?

Have you been to a rebarcamp before?  What made it a great event or could have made it a better event?  If you haven’t been to a rebarcamp event before, what are your expectations?

We’re wanting to hear from you.  Lane, Ken, Patty, Thom, Tonya and Randy all want to make this the best rebarcamp ever… we already know it will be the best one in Atlanta so far (it’s the first, so it is a lock).

Let us know what you think…

[note from Lane:  I just thought the picture was a great combination of 'Hot' and 'Cool'... ]
