An Awesome Social Web Foo Camp

Back in the office after an awesome Social Web Foo Camp on the O’Reilly Media campus in Sebastopol. The event came off perfectly, with great people, fantastic weather, and flawless logistics. Thanks to the O’Reilly team and to David Recordon, Dave Morin, and Scott Kveton for organizing and hosting such a great event. Conversations at Foo are covered under “frieND”-A, so I didn’t live-blog or take notes. But I did take a few photos, and thought I would share them to provide a window into the nature of this very special gathering. We have made so much progress toward an open and interoperable Social Web since the first Social Foo Camp, last February, and this event did nothing to dampen my optimism for the coming months.
