= TorCampDemoCamp 2.0 * *Date*: *Tuesday, January 24th, 2006 - PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS HAS CHANGED* * *Time*: 6:30 - 8:00, drinks to follow for those interested * *Location*: [Radiant Core, Inc. http://www.radiantcore.com], 171 East Liberty St. Suite 253 (in Liberty Village, near King and Dufferin) * *Directions*: Please see our [contact] page, or our handy [map]. * *Requests*: Donations for Pizza/Drinks, a Big "Timer/Clock" (Bryce?) * *Expected Attendance*: All are welcome! Please add yourself to the Attendees list below so we have some idea of the size of the crowd. * *Format*: 4 x 5 Min Demos (5 min demo, 10 min Q&A/Discussions) * *Sign-ups and Schedule*: TorCampDemoCamp2SignUpHere ---- == Mini-FAQ * *What's the point?* Building on the success of the initial TorCamp and the first Demo Camp (SignUpHere), we want to continue to develop an active startup community in Toronto. Do you have a tool, a piece of software, a set of scripts, hardware hacks, PowerPoint/Keynote presentation that you want feedback on? Bring it. Show it. * *Who can come?* Everyone is welcome! Just Edit this page and add your name under Attendees, below, so that we have a rough idea of numbers. * *What are the rules?* Rule #1 of DemoCamp: Don't talk about DemoCamp ;) Rule #2 of DemoCamp: No powerpoints allowed. Why no .ppt ? Well, do you have working software or don't you? * *Do I have to have a demo?* Nope! You are welcome to come along and give feedback to the people who do (or just watch and absorb if you don't feel like talking). * *Have another question?* Just edit this page, add your question, and someone will answer it for you. ---- == Demo Schedule: * [Radiant Core Foundation http://www.radiantcore.com/foundation] - Website Management and Development Platform * [2ndSite Online Invoicing http://www.2ndsite.biz] - 30,000 users and counting * Kweschun - Harnessing the collective wisdom of the net to predict the future * [Leila Boujnane, new demo: EspionSketcher (sketch to find images) http://www.ideeinc.com] * Sonic Securites Ltd. - waveDNA: Music reverse engineering and search (We can definitely do more than four demos, but you might consider holding off until DemoCamp 3.0 in February) * *Special Bonus Session:* Wayne Bradley, from Development Associates, will do a quick and informative session about the CCRA's [SR&ED http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/taxcredit/sred/menu-e.html] tax rebate program and his insights gained from working for the government for eight years and then helping companies making claims for another 12 years. This isn't a demo per se - and definitely not a sales pitch for their services as they aren't looking for new clients, but part of their mandate is community outreach and education about SR&ED. They helped Radiant Core secure a considerable refund in 2004 - come and learn how your R&D efforts can earn you a cheque too. ---- == TorCamper Homework Everyone who has previously attended a TorCamp event has an assignment. Our ongoing success depends on our ability to find fresh... blood, so you are asked to please bring someone with you who has not attended a TorCamp event previously.
