Christopher Wink: Sharing my work and writing about media convergence, entrepreneurship and the future of news
I’m heading to the national BarCamp for NewsInnovation at Temple University in Philadelphia. If you’re in the region, why don’t you stop on by, it runs all day to 5 p.m. and should prove interesting.
I also wrote an impassioned plea about this for uwishunu.

I so wanted to be there but had family obligations! I think it was a valid reason for a BarCamp, and I hope it went well. We (Philly tourism) did try to support the conference. Did you see the gift bags?

The Greater Philadelphia Tourism and Marketing Corp. offered great goodie bags for all attendants!! A true welcome to Philadelphia from a great tourism agency. That’s something we won’t forget soon! Thanks much, and sorry you missed it. I hope more technology events will find there way to Philly.
