BarCamp Phnom Penh poster now available on the net

As of writing this post, I can confirm that we have 127 registered BarCampers to show up at BarCamp Phnom Penh; we have 107 people subscribed to our email list. Please make sure that you all suscribe to the list, which can be found here. We use the email list to send you updates on the event.

It’s amazing that, so far, most of the campaigns have been done online. Our BarCamp PP folks use both basic and sopshisticated technologies to spread the word, from text messaging to email to Twitter; and not to mention Facebook. We’re also appreciated that our Cambodia bloggers link to our official blog site.

For presenters, please prepare your slides you will present at the BarCamp. You might want to use SlideShare to store the presentation. The BarCamp Phnom Penh at Cambodia-Japan Cooperation Center (CJCC) will be equipped with Wi-Fi and LCD projectors. Should you have any other questions, please leave your comment on this weblog post.

A couple of things to let you BarCampers know what’s behind the scene. The BarCamp planners are having a meeting later this week to conclude the works we have been running for the past months. We’re now BarCamp stickers; and we’ll soon start producing BarCamp Phnom Penh T-shirts. Our generous sponsors and supporters also provide us T-shirts, caps, print magazines, software, and such.

Also, for more information on the BarCamp PP, our wiki site was launched to provide all relevant information on the event. You can register online to participate the BarCamp physically.

Just less than 10 days after announcing our online registration, there are almost 60 people registered to attend BarCamp Phnom Penh. The conference hall at Cambodia-Japan Cooperation Center (CJCC) can host up to 400 people although we target only half of that amount.

On other front, our BarCamp planners are now working to produce media kits, such as some cool stickers, badges, and T-shirts.

Meanwhile, this is let everyone knows that our wiki page (user edited page) is here. We’ll be using the wiki page to plan, organize, and run the BarCamp. You can now find that there is new page called ‘Accommodation,’ where you can let us know if you can share places to stay for our BarCamp fellows coming from outside Phnom Penh and Cambodia.

Aside from our registration page, I’ve also created a new page that deals with questions and answers, mainly Frequently Asked Question (FAQ), about BarCamp Phnom Penh.
