history

Program Like it's 1996, a practical satire.

Bring your own computer.

I'm fascinated by all the social networks available, and I'd like to have a session to talk about what has happened, what is happening now, and what the social networks OF THE FUTURE might be like...

I'm no expert -- which is what BarCamp is about -- and if you want to present something, that is great -- I am mainly proposing it because I want to attend and learn something from such a session. I'll facilitate the discussion and organize it loosely around the sequence: tales of the past, what is going on in the present, and ideas of the future.

I've come to know--through people in web414 and BarCampMilwaukee--networks such as facebook, meetup, flickr, twitter, yelp, panoramio, metroproper, pownce, OKCupid, linkedin, mySpace, ziki, upcoming, friendster, hi5.com, orkut, tribe, live, del.icio.us, tumblr, zorpia, familylink, outside.in, and more.

History Of Programming Languages

I've been interested in the history of different programming languages, so I'd like to share some of that history of languages that I find interesting.

This session will discuss Forth and APL. Brief histories and maybe a bit of overview about the actual syntax of the languages. No more than 30 minutes each, maybe less.

Discussion is encouraged.

Both of the original HOPL sessions were merged together into one HOPL session. We talked about APL and Forth mostly. It was quite interesting and enjoyable.

This session will discuss Erlang and Smalltalk. Brief histories and maybe a bit of overview about the actual syntax of the languages. No more than 30 minutes each, maybe less.
