What is BarCamp?

Directly quoted from Wikipedia: BarCamp is
an international network of user generated conferences — open,
participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by
participants — often focusing on early-stage web applications, and related open source technologies, social protocols, and open data formats.

BarCamp Malaysia

BarCamp Malaysia is an ad-hoc unconference and is part of the larger BarCamp
movement. While there are topics suggested for discussion, there is no
set agenda until everyone gathers. Attendees are required to
participate to some degree: either by giving a presentation, demo, etc.
or by facilitating a group discussion. Topics are flexible, as well.

BarCamp Malaysia 2008 will be held on 26th and 27th July.
