Having missed the last OpenCoffee in Leeds due to being, well, not in Leeds, I'm pleased to say I should be able to make the next (sixth) one, OpenCoffee {Sei}, on Tuesday 6 November.

BarCamp Leeds - 17 November 2007
But not only has Imran been busy sorting these out, he's now set in motion things for BarCamp Leeds on Saturday 17 December. Over to Imran for the details:

BarCamp Leeds is the city's first 'unconference', a event where the folks that attend create the programme of sessions themselves. BarCamps are open, participatory, democratic, 'workshop' events; the organisers and sponsors simply provide wireless broadband, a venue, beverages and food! The attendees provide the content - and the buzz :)

We're anticipating sessions on social media, blogging, 3D printing, Augmented Reality interfaces, mobile technology trends, Drupal, games design, co-creation, PR in the digital age, an SEO clinic as well as talks from the founders of BT Bizbox, Plusnet and eDocr.

There'll also be a great opportunity to network - we're hoping our Nintendo Wii's will break the ice and Leeds Met's Old Broadcasting House will provide a fun and inspiring venue.

We'd love for you to come - if your a creative, an artist, a writer, blogger, technologist, or a developer, geek, entrepreneur, academic researcher, gamer or investor please join us. If you're just curious and interested in digital culture - we'd love to meet you too :)

Come and demo, talk, share or just hang out!

According to the Rules of BarCamp, I HAVE to present something. So I'm off to put my thinking cap on, and am wondering whether a collection of Web 2.0 geeks want to know anything about DSL networks...
