Ottawa Web Weekend

I am pleased to say that Ottawa Web Weekend will be on May 9-11, 2008.

It will take place at TheCodeFactory downtown on Queen St.

We will start the registration process soon.

Can’t wait!

I got feedback from people attending university saying April 4-6 was not the best time for them to take part in the Weekend…and I remember how it was.

So, we’re postponing the weekend to the beginning for May (2-4 or 9-11) so it better fits with their schedule.

We’ll keep you posted.

Hi everybody,

we are looking for a venue for the Weekend. We don’t need anything complicated:

• A place big enough where we can get around 50 people working togheter (if possible, a big room where we can hold meetings and smaller ones to work in).
• A place easy to get to (either downtown or close to the Transitway?)
• Available from Friday around 5PM to Sunday around 10PM.

In exchange, we are ready to advertise any organization that will provide us with a working space on our website (this one and the weekend’s app one).

Write us if you got something.

Even tho it’s more than 2 months away, it’s time to start organizing the Weekend. There is lots to do to make it happen: find a venue, advertise/recruit participants, find sponsors and decide what will happen during those 3 days.

If you are interested in helping out to organize it, send me an e-mail (ottawaw [at] gmail [dot] com) and we will meet soon.

If you are interested in participating, enter your name and e-mail address in the box on the right and I’ll keep you posted.
