Episode Three of Developing Philly Season One, “Come Together”, looks at two events that changed the course of Philly tech. Here’s some extra info…

• We don’t get into it here, but one of the earliest listservs like the one Maria Sciarrino talks about at the beginning in Philly was called Dummytown. She was an early member.
• We’ll get into this more next week, but you might as well know now, PANMA stands for Philadelphia Area New Media Association.
• A little more on Ignite Philly.
• A little more on the home of Ignite Philly.
• Here’s a little more background on Ignite itself. Turns out Tim O’Reilly had a hand in the origin story of both of this episode’s main events.
• In case you were curious about the cows.
• Brian James Kirk’s pivotal Philebrity post about Ignite Philly.
• Technically Philly has since grown into Technical.ly, spreading to Baltimore and soon Brooklyn.
• Here’s a little more on BarCamp Philly.
• And, just for kicks, here’s BarCamp Orlando.
• And here’s a little more on the notion and history of BarCamp itself.
• And you can’t have BarCamp without…
• You’ll hear the name Roz Duffy again in this series.
• By the way, this is what Alex Hillman’s shirt says.
• This is completely self-serving, but one of the filmmakers once gave a talk at BarCamp Philly (and the other filmmaker filmed it, actually).
• Proof there really was a talk called “Microsoft: Help Us Suck Less” (look at the 12pm slot).
• Here are just a few of the camps that have sprung up since BarCamp Philly:
• HigherEdCamp
• edcamp
• HealthCamp
• failcamp
• BarCamp NewsInnovation
• Content Camp
• WordCamp
• And here’s one that pre-dates BarCamp Philly.
• If you stuck around for the easter egg, here’s the fabulous Pam Selle Ignite talk it comes from.
