BarCampLA 8 update – (postponed)

We hate to do this, and more so are sorry about the late notice, but BarCampLA 8 is going to be postponed a couple months.
We’re looking at the possibility of January, we’re just making sure we can find a date with the least amount of conflicts that makes sense.
But I’m sure what you’d all really like to know is, “Why is BarCamp postponed?”
There are a lot of reasons, the big ones currently being resources, economy, and time. When it comes to us, the organizers, it’s been an

Digital Family Reunion, now with just a hint of BarCampLA

Howdy Campers!
Digital Family Reunion is bringing all of the LA Tech/Business/Media scene together December 11th, for a nice holiday party at the Skirball Center! It should be a blast having so many great LA communities together, sharing their thoughts and having some great holiday fun! We’d love to see our LA BarCampers come out with us and join in on what looks to be an amazing night of fun and festivities! To save you a little bit of scratch, (that’s cash, moola, greenbacks, etc for the rest of you), use the special BarCamp code of ‘DFR03′ when you buy your tickets, and you’ll save $20 off the ticket price.
Check out the details below, and we hope to see…

BarCamp LA is looking for some helping hands!

Howdy Campers and Camperettes!
BarCamp LA is in need of a few helping hands Saturday morning before things get started to help us set up chairs and prep a few things before the festivities begin! We also have a limited number of Barcamp LA shirts this year, so early helpers will get first dibs on their shirts. :-) If you’d like to lend a hand, Please meet us at Mahalo / Causecast HQ, 902 Colorado Ave. Santa Monica, CA 90401 , Saturday Morning, at 9am!
Cant wait to see y’all there!!
