Social Graph Foo Camp (wiki password is c4mp)
(wiki password is c4mp)
February 1-3, 2008
**O'Reilly's Campus in Sebastopol, CA
We've invited about 70 Friends Of O'Reilly (aka Foo), people who're doing interesting works around social networking, the social graph, and technologies for data portability. We'll have some planned activities, but much of the agenda will be determined by you. We'll provide space, electricity, a wireless network, and a wiki. You bring your ideas, enthusiasms, and projects. We all get to know each other better, and hopefully come up with some cool ideas about how to change the world.
Like past FooCamps which O'Reilly organized, a Foo Camp is as good as participants make it. Be prepared to lead or participate in a session, ask interesting questions, show off what you're working on, and generally leave your mark on the weekend. It's a little like Burning Man in that there are no spectators, only participants (much less dust, however). People sometimes ask "what can I do to be invited back" and your best bet is to make a (positive) impression by engaging and presenting.
Be Prepared to Demo or Speak
We'll put the program together on Friday evening at about 7:30pm, so if you want to lead a session, sign up for a slot then. Don't worry if you arrive late, there should be enough sessions to go around. We'll have a variety of spaces–conference rooms and open areas. Several of the rooms have projectors, but we could use more, so if you have one to lend, do bring it along. For more information about past Foo Camps, Tim has posted "Why Foo Camp" and there are tips from past campers.
Schedule
Plan on arriving Friday afternoon (4ish) and leaving mid-day Sunday. There will be heavy traffic on 101N starting at 3pm (or before), especially if it's raining as forecasted. Leave early to avoid the worst of it.
An updating calendar of the presentation schedule is available at http://adactio.com/extras/schedules/sgfoocamp08/|here].
Camping
Generally people will "camp" at O'Reilly's campus either outside in tents or throughout their offices/cubicles in sleeping bags. http://wiki.oreillynet.com/foocamp07/index.cgi?WhatToBring is a good reference too.

The following companies (beyond O'Reilly donating their awesome campus) are helping to make SG Foo possible.

Photography
There is a Flickr group SGFOO2008.
Tagging
If we all use the tag "sgfoo2008" for blog posts, photographs, and other tag folksonomy enabled sites, it will be easier for everyone to find each other's stuff about this event.
Blogging & otherwise recording SG Foo
We don't have a strict policy about blogging, but we do expect that if someone tells you something in confidence, you'll respect that confidence as if it were told to you under NDA. We call this frieNDA. Much of the free interchange that happens at a Foo Camp comes from people's confidence that they can tell each other things off the record, so please respect any request for privacy.
Foo Camp conversations tend to be a mixture of public knowledge (here's what we're up to, here's a fact about X that you probably didn't already know) and private conversations (we tried X and it didn't work, we're going to compete against Y by doing Z). Be aware of this and confirm the status of a nugget before you blog or write up something you heard.
We'd rather not have the sessions recorded or live-blogged. We're hoping to encourage spontaneous conversation, and the idea that someone is recording can act as an inhibitor to that spontaneity.
If you want to do a detailed writeup on a presentation you attended, do public background check with the presenter, or in the case of a discussion, the participants. That being said, many sessions benefit from someone taking notes and making them available to others. So the point is really just to do what serves the group and the event. There's a big difference between recording what went on for the benefit of the participants, and turning your experience into a media event. We'd prefer that you write about SG Foo as a participant, not a reporter, and focus on your own experience of the weekend.
That said, there are so many interesting people and ideas at a Foo Camp that some kind of documentation seems desirable. At the last Foo Camp, Carl Malamud had the good idea to set up a video room away from the action, where we can film people talking about their sessions, what they've learned at Camp, and/or what they see coming down the road. We're going to do just that at SG Foo. More details at Camp about how to participate (it's voluntary, of course).
