Join us for Portland Code Camp 2012

This spring the Portland, Oregon development community is coming together for an outstanding community-based software (un-)conference like no other.

Portland Code Camp brings regional software development professionals together for the opportunity to immerse themselves in seminars, presentations, group exploration, and networking. Participants will be able to engage in their preferred technology, as well as to sample other options, with a focus on extending information exchange and enhancing the cross pollination of ideas. Mark your calendar! Portland Code Camp is scheduled for June 2, 2012 at Eliot Center in downtown Portland, Oregon. The Eliot Center offers a great venue — including large meeting rooms, excellent access to public transportation, and easy bike commuting.

Admission to this event is free, all costs are covered by donations and sponsorships. Please register soon as seating is limited — and tell you friends and colleagues about the event.

The camp schedule is available in a few different forms.

Portland Code Camp is the place to share what you know and what excites you about software with your friends and colleagues in the community. So propose a session now!

Show us some wonderful piece of technology that you've worked with. Share a great tool that everyone should know about. Demonstrate a cool way that you solved an interesting problem. At Portland Code Camp we like to see more code than slides, show us how it's put together and how it works.

All languages, all technologies, and all platforms are welcome! As software developers, we share a lot in common regardless of the languages and tools we are using. We love solving problems and finding new ways to bring our software skills to bear on problems. At Portland Code Camp we celebrate our common interests and we get to learn how other people are solving similar problems in different ways. That could be for a server or a smartphone, the browser or the desktop, open source or commercial software, something serious for work or fun for entertainment. It's all welcome at Portland Code Camp. So tell us about something new, something you find valuable in your work, or that side project that keeps you fresh and learning new things!

And if you've never presented before, then Portland Code Camp is your ideal opportunity to give it a try. Get started in front a warm, friendly group of your peers. We've had many success stories from people who spoke for the first time at Portland Code Camp. You could be next. What are you waiting for?
