Democamp Toronto 28
Last night was Democamp 28 at Ryerson University. It was my first time attending a Democamp there and the venue was a theater format with the crowd very separate from the presenter…

DemoCampToronto19
Democamp was back on last night at the Imperial Pub. It was back to its root with a small crowded venue with hard to hear and see demos. I think with a 2nd speaker near the back would probably fix all this and the location was certainly work-able. It was also a lot of the […]
DemoCampToronto18
Last night with the 18th DemoCamp in Toronto, I think I’ve been to about 11 since my first DemoCamp around #5. The venue was at the SuperMarket restaurant/bar on Augusta. The venue was way too small for the event, even though the SuperMarket does have awesome food. The Supermarket even ran out of beer glasses […]
MeshU Schedule
The mesh guys have finalized the MeshU schedule with a great line-up for startups, and anyone building for the web. MeshU is a one-day seminar, separate from the Mesh Conference, that focuses on web startups. The day features 12 workshops and 3 streams ( design, development, management ). I think the series highlights for me […]
StartupCampWaterloo2
Last night was StartupCampWaterloo and I made my first trip out to the Waterloo Acceleration Center. Having gone to a lot of events around Toronto the Waterloo Acceleration Center is awesome, with an open lobby area for presentations. I think there was about 80 people in attendance but it was still an intimate environment for […]
DemoCampToronto17
DemoCampToronto17 was last night at the Board of Trade. It was a packed house again with tickets selling out a few weeks ago. About half the crowd was new to DemoCamp again. It’s a strange trend that so many new people are coming out. The Demo’s for the night were: AskItOnline.com by Kaitlyn McLachlan, Clear […]
PodCamp Toronto
On Saturday I attended the PodCamp Toronto at Ryerson University. I’ve been to a lot of Toronto events but I was surprised to see and meet a lot of new people. The Podcast community is defininetly a different one from the other Toronto events. The event also attracted a good number of out of town […]
Flash in TO v66
I went to Flash in TO again last night, which turned out to be about all things not flash. There was a good crowd of people there and free pizza for everyone. The event also featured a little bar which makes for a good night. The presentations for the evening were: Unity 3D by Cam […]
StartupCampToronto1 Review
StartupCampToronto was last night and it was awesome. A much more business focused crowd than DemoCamp, the crowd was a mix of startups and funding options. It was a No Regrets, which is a more intimate environment to have a drink and watch the presentations. The presentation line last night was as follows: Freshbooks I’ve […]
DemoCampToronto16 Review
DemoCampToronto16 took place on Monday night and was back at the Board of Trade. The BOT is a great venue but seems to bring out a lot of people in suits and create an overall more formal atmosphere. I was again surprised at the number of new DemoCamp attendees. I’m not really sure why DemoCamp […]
