Here is some background info on this event -

 

One of the new tracks at Citrix Synergy this year is the GeekSpeak
track. 

In addition to the GeekSpeak Live event, there will also be a GeekSpeak
BarCamp event.  This event is designed to allow any attendee to sign up
to speak for 30 minutes on any technical topic. GeekSpeak BarCamp will
give the attendees at Citrix Synergy a new opportunity to contribute to
the discussion and provide a much wider array of technical content.
Pizza and drinks will be provided for those who attend. The Geek Speak
Gadget Gear Lounge will be open during both GeekSpeak Live and the
BarCamp as well. We will have eight Dell/AlienWare workstations for
multiplayer gaming over Project Apollo.

This BarCamp event will follow immediately after GeekSpeak Live on
Wednesday, May 21st. We will have access to four sections of the
GeekSpeak room to host these sessions. We will be hosting a total of
twenty sessions at this event, all led by members of the Citrix
Community who have volunteered to speak. Any Citrix Synergy attendee is
eligible to sign up to lead a session at GeekSpeak BarCamp.

You are invited to attend the free GeekSpeak BarCamp event. We would
also like to invite you to speak at the event if you have a session
topic you would like to share with the other attendees. Any technology
topic is open for discussion at GeekSpeak BarCamp. The sessions will
range from white board discussions to live installations. The only rule
is no sales or marketing pitches are allowed.

You can find more detail and background on the Official Citrix Blog
about GeekSpeak BarCamp http://community.citrix.com/x/NYCoAQ and on the

You can post your session idea in the comments on the blog, or email
them to me at citrixblogger @ citrix.com (remove the spaces).

 

We look forward to seeing you at Citrix Synergy and at GeekSpeak.

 

 

 

Thanks,

Barry Flanagan
