I’m happy to announce the next Chicago Code Camp will be taking place on May 1st at IIT Campus in (where else?) Chicago. I threw out the challenge to the planning committee to make this event stand out on the map of Code Camps taking place all over the world. It’s an event for the whole technology community in and around Chicago. To make this event GREAT, we want *YOU*. We want you to speak. We want you to participate. We want you to engage. Share your ideas. Share your interests. Share your passion. Code Camps are all about sharing and learning amongst your peers.

Call for Speakers

The Call for Speakers has gone out. If you would like to share your passion, submit a talk or two (or more). We would like to have a diverse set of technologies addressed on the camp’s agenda. Including areas such as .NET, Java, Ruby, PERL, Python, ActionScript, Flash, iPhone, Android, Windows Phone, Web, Mobile, etc., etc., etc.

Before submitting your session, be sure to read the Code Camp Manifesto and pay particular attention to the part about “No Fluff only Code”.

Although we’d like to accept all submissions, the logistics and size of venue keeps us from doing so. The planning committee will work to make sure they have a balanced agenda covering the depth of technologies that makes for the best Code Camp possible. This is also reliant, of course, on people submitting a range of topic ideas.

Submit your session ideas now!
