One important aspect of barcamp is ‘fresh blood’. Having return campers is great, but new people are always needed to bolster the ranks and bring new ideas. All of us work with and know other people who would make *great* barcampers, if we could only get them to come to the event.
In an effort to entice them, below is the current promotional blurb we have been using. Please print&post it, email it, blog it, hand out flyers in the cafeteria. You know the drill.

Barcamp returns to Los Angeles, April 30 – May 1!
Barcamp is a ad-hoc technology conference where attendees are the speakers. Got something cool to share with your fellow tech geeks? Been working on a neat side project? Come to barcamp and meet others with your passion while sharing yours. The agenda is created each morning of the event, so while you won’t know exactly what the topics will be, you can be sure it will be engaging and interesting. Past sessions have ranged from Richard Stallman talking about the Free Software Foundation to an introduction to Tactical Corsets.
Its been a huge effort to bring barcamp back after and extended hiatus. Please join us!
