Boilerhouse sponsors UKGovCamp2010

A great day was had by all at the UKGovCamp2010 for which we provided the logo and the t-shirts (described by one delegate’s wife as making him look like a superhero, so we did something right here……..For the uninitiated, this event was the third Barcamp for UK government and was held on 23 January at Google HQ in London.

Barcamps are ‘unconferences’ – events where the agenda is decided on the day and the content is dictated by the people who come along. On paper it sounds like it will never work, but just read the feedback from webbies and social media types who attended and you’ll want to come along to the next one. You can access write ups from the event at http://www.ukgovweb.org/. Boilerhouse’s Vicky Sargent led a session on setting up a UK gov web professionals group.
