BeerCamp

My buddy Duane is cooking up a cool idea currently called BeerCamp which seems appropriate to me since we met over beers at the SuperHappyDevHouse last year.

The idea is that a bunch of people camp out for the weekend with the goal of creating a company from scratch during that weekend.

Head over to Duane’s blog for the full scoop and post in the comments if you’re interested in participating. All the usual event stuff will come if there is enough interest.

Update: Looks like it will be called StartupWeekend Vancouver…there will still be beer in attendance so calm down.
