General Information

BlogCampSwitzerland 2.0 is a European conference focusing exclusively on blogging, organized by bloggers for bloggers. It's built upon the principles of the famous BarCamp ("ad-hoc unconference"). The next BlogCamp will again host an open environment at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH), for a maximum of 200 Bloggers from all over Europe. We're again expecting an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction between attendees. Any blogger who wants to contribute is welcome and invited to join.

This is a non-profit event: Attending is free of charge. Watch this video to understand what the BarCamp principles are about.

What's new?

If you attended the first BlogCampSwitzerland in March: this one is going to be pretty much the same - so relax, you already know how it works. There are going to be three differences, all per request of participants of 1.0:

  • liveDEMO: One room out of the five will be reserved for demos - of new software, new websites, new startups, etc.
  • We're going to have five consecutive slots instead of four, so you get to see one more session.
  • Lunch will be provided on site to reduce stress and allow more time for talks.

If you did NOT attend BlogCampSwitzerland 1.0: You'll easily get into it! We cannot think of any excuse for not coming - again.

unAgenda

Regular sessions

UnAgenda BlogCamp 1-0 24Mar07.jpg

Enter your name, affiliation (optional), if you want to give a presentation. You can talk about anything you like around blogging and blogs. Please note that we will NOT put together a program by assigning rooms and time slots. The final "unAgenda" will be composed by posting your topic on the spot.(*Please keep in mind this is a blog and blogging focused event. Your session should primarily target bloggers as an audience)

There will be 20 minute slots for presentations followed by about another 20 minutes Q&A and discussions. So you get around 45 minutes.

You are free to present in any language you want. English, German, Swiss German, French, Italian? Take your pick.

Organizing Committee

BlogCampSwitzerland 2.0 is again organized by four bloggers and/or startup entrepreneurs. Please note that all four are doing this in their private time, so it will be in no way a corporate event hosted by any of their companies. If you don't trust us, ask Matthias Gutfeldt what it was like last time.

Travel

A variety of online maps to find ETH:

Tram stop: "ETH / Universitätsspital", tram lines 6/9/10

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

The great thing about Zurich is that it's easily reachable by train and plane - it's one hour away by air from all major European cities. Some links:

Travel time from the train station should be no more than ten minutes. When you arrive at "Zürich Hauptbahnhof" (getting off the train, facing the main hall), the easiest way is to go to the right, down the escalators, a few steps through the hall, up another escalator to the tram stop "Bahnhofplatz/Hauptbahnhof": Trams 3, 14 and 10 stop here. Take the 10 (final stop "Oerlikon") to "ETH/Universitätsspital" (3 stops). You can check search.ch for the up-to-date schedule. The tram stop is located directly in front of the main ETH building ("HG" for "Hauptgebäude"). It's really as easy as it sounds...

Carpool

The following section is for carpooling to Zurich/Switzerland. If you are in need for a transport please add you name and your contact details to the list. If you are traveling to Zurich and have a seat or two free in your car add your name as well and add your route. Maybe you find a nice person and your travel will be less long or boring.

I need a ride

Oliver Gassner, from Hannover/Stephansstift to Zurich. Preferably on Friday night, at around 22:00. Contact: og[at]carpe.com or skype: olivergassner

<your name, your route>

Roomsharing

The following section is for people from abroad looking for an overnight stay near to the event. If you think it's more fun to sleep at a blogger's place than in a hotel, add you name and your contact details to the list. If you have some free space for bloggers on Friday or Saturday night, add your name as well and add your contact details. Maybe you find an interresting blogger to share your thoughts with before or after the meeting

I need a place
