It&#8217;ll be interesting to see how it compares to FooCamp and BarCamp and the other geek events I&#8217;ve been to.</p>
<p>The Seattle software industry is a lot different than the one down in the San Francisco area. But because of Boeing/Starbucks/Amazon/Microsoft&#8217;s influence there&#8217;s quite a few interesting geeks up here. Plus Kirkland has five or six video game companies and Nintendo is here too. I&#8217;ll be at <a href="http://www.seattlemind.com/">Mind Camp</a>, my ticket is on the counter. </p>
