It's Good to Be a Werewolf
I had the same feeling the first time I read about BarCamps. That little thrill of excitement that keeps me tied to events. Not the boring, 'let's get drunk' kind of meetings - rather the fuzzy, 'I don't know what is going to happen' kind of moment. As I was reading the February issue of Wired UK, I learned that once again the geeks innovated. I read about Werewolf. As for the unconference, FooCamp 'borrowed' the idea from Open Space Technology. They 'borrowed' it once again from Mafia - a cult, underground, hostelized Russian role play game of the mid '90s. Why does it matter? Well in the myriad of user generated events, this seems like a great networking compromise that gets rid of the businessy cardy, spammy practice we're all tired of.I hope you don't use it for your event as I already started my London Meetup and going to conquer the World :-p Here's a nice video:
