Should there be a BarCamp for MR? MRCamp anyone?
Having spent a little time looking through the conversations in some of the MR-related facebook groups (as an aside, I wish there was a more proactive way that groups would update you with what's being posted on their walls and discussions), I came across one that talked about a wish for some BarCamp-like meetups to share information on web 2.0 and social media for research and insight (as an alternative to the big, expensive, and generally top-down MR conferences).
I think that's a brilliant idea - for BarCamp read MRCamp!
It's vaguely in the same area as the Research Liberation Front, who ran a fringe meeting at the last MRS conference in Brighton, but would ideally be closer to the "everyone presents something" BarCamp ethos.
Is anyone up for this? If so, please contribute to the community wiki at mrcamp.org. If not, we'll consign it to the dustbin of history..
