Modern Luxury DC: "Revenge of the Nerds" @corbett3000 @frankgruber @refreshdc @jfc3

I just spotted this article -- "Revenge of the Nerds" by Hays Sibley -- in November's issue of DC Magazine by Modern Luxury. The issue spotlights DC tech talent-- very nice! Personalities and events mentioned in this particular article include Jason Garber's Refresh DC, BarcampDC 3, Accessibility Camp's John F Croston III, She's Geeky, and Frank Gruber's TECH Cocktail.

Peter Corbett, of iStrategyLabs fame, is mentioned for TechArts. We also know him for his contribution to recent unconferences such as PubCamp and Barcamp. Yesterday, Peter spoke at an arts and technology panel moderated by Philippa Hughes of the Pink Line Project.

DC Tech Events's Ross Karchner also mentioned. Good job, guys!

Sign up to attend PublicMediaCamp '09. NPR, PBS, AU & iStrategyLabs host this user-generated conference, October 17 - 18, 2009

What: PublicMediaCamp '09 is the national kickoff event for a series of local user-generated conferences (aka “unconferences”) focusing on strengthening the relationship between public broadcasters and their communities through new forms of collaboration.

PublicMediaCamp seeks to bring together community technology activists, citizen journalists and other members of the public eager to support public media in tangible ways, bringing them together with public broadcasters in an engaging collaborative environment.

Where: American University's Mary Gradon Hall (map).

Future PublicMediaCamps will be hosted by stations around the country.

Who: The inaugural national event will be co-hosted by NPR, PBS  and AU’s Center for Social Media, in conjunction with iStrategyLabs.

Participants will be composed of public broadcasters, as well individuals who are passionate about public broadcasting and who have a personal interest in volunteering time and effort to further its mission.

Format: Inspired by unconferences such as BarCamp, PodCamp and unconferences hosted by Minnesota Public Radio and KUSP Santa Cruz, PublicMediaCamp will give all participants an opportunity to plan and run the event.

Participants will be invited to formulate conference tracks and sessions as part of pre-conference engagement process. Significant portions of event will also be left open and reserved for attendees to create their own sessions on the weekend of the event itself.

All presentations and sessions at PublicMediaCamp are on the record; blogging, podcasting, tweeting, etc are all strongly encouraged, in conjunction with the tag #PubCamp.

Refresh-dc-july

View flickr photos >

Boy, was it hot in there! The technology, the speakers, and the lack of AC made for a heated and informative session by old buddies Jason Garber (mixx.com) and M. Jackson Wilkinson (vigetlabs.com).


The doctype: seriously elegant


Being able to keep your old XTHML coding habits


Progressful Degrahancement (TM)


@font-face faces legal hurdles


Nice: getElementsByClassName


Structured Client Storage


Multiple background images: sometimes it's the little things

And much, much more. I will post slides when the speakers do. Until then, you can read this summary.
