Social networks, web 3.0 and e-business were the key topics at this weekend’s BarCamp.
Over 200 people attended the “freeform” conference, where the audience is invited to give speeches on the topics of their choosing.
Social networking was a recurring theme in the weekend talks. Entrepreneur Elias Bizannes criticised businesses for failing to understand the importance of social networks.
