EventCamp 2010 was a BarCamp-style gathering that brought together event professionals to share best practices and learn new strategies of leveraging social media and technology to create a successful event. EventCamp was a grassroots initiative produced by a group of volunteers and solely funded by sponsors. It was the biggest trending topic in NYC on twitter and offered video conferencing so people at home could participate. I was asked by my friend, Christina Coster, a freelance planner in NYC and one of the producers of the event to come take photos. I had a lot of fun meeting all kinds of social media gurus and planners and learned some new tips for twitter.
