Digesting Barcamp Nonprofits
photo by @HowardLake Amy just posted about her feeling of emotional hangover after last week’s Barcamp Nonprofits London so I thought it’s probably a good time for me too to gather all my thoughts too. Since last week’s event there have been a lot of interesting reactions to our event so before you check out my points, please listen (and leave a kind comment) on the...

Last Thursday I attended my first Barcamp event in London. I have been following Barcamp Nonprofits for the past year and missed the chance by one day to attend the previous one (October 2011) – you see the popularity of these events and the nature of free tickets lead to “sold out” events very quickly.

It’s funny how most charity sector conferences and seminars are exactly the same. I don’t mean in terms of speakers, content, quality or venue of course.
