Presentations from the Barcamp!
Important

(Taken from other BarCamp pages) BarCamp is an ad-hoc un-conference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees.
All attendees should give a demo, a session, or help with one. All presentions are scheduled the day they happen. Prepare in advance, but come early to get a slot on the wall. Presenters are responsible for making sure that notes/slides/audio/video of their presentations are published on the web for the benefit of all and those who can’t be present.
Anyone with something to contribute or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to join.

- 1. HalfBaked.com session (for everyone): starting at 3.15pm
HalfBaked.com is a fun improv game in which the audience shouts out random words after which the group is split into small teams that pick 2 words each to christen a brand new company. The teams then have to come up with business models, marketing plans, logos, taglines etc for their companies. They do this in 10 minutes. Each team then pitches to the audience for 5 minutes; the audience grills them and decides who wins!
This is inspired by the HalfBaked.com session that Amit Gupta conducted at Barcamp NYC. His post on this is here: http://amitgupta.com/blog/shoebox/2006/10/03/halfbakedcom-entrepreneurial-improv/
