Sourcing

[edit]

Foo Camps are mentioned in the book "The Best of Technology Writing 2006." [1]

Heh, I happen to have read that book! It's a collection of essays from various sources. Which one mentions Foo Camp? It'd be better to cite the essay directly (most of the ones in the book are also online in one form or another). Dreamyshade (talk) 00:47, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

[edit]

Someone tagged this article as possibly not-notable, so here are some sources y'all might find useful:

Online

[edit]

Washington Post, CNN, Wired, InfoWorld, BusinessWeek, Forbes? I'd say that that kind of coverage means it's notable.

Books

[edit]
  • Informal Learning: Rediscovering the Natural Pathways That Inspire by Jay Cross (page 209)
  • The Cult of the Amateur: How Today's Internet is Killing Our Culture by Andrew Keen (page 13)
  • Founders at Work: Stories of Startups' Early Days by Jessica Livingston
  • Everything is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder by David Weinberger (page 243)
  • The Myths of Innovation by Scott Berkun (page 159)
  • The Impact of Electronic Publishing: The Future for Libraries and Publishers by David J. Brown (page 251)
  • Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations by Clay Shirky (page 229)

Normally, I'd just update the article myself, but given that at least one of the above quotes me, I figure I should recuse myself. Dori (TalkContribs) 19:42, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I added the refimprove tag a few months ago because the article does need better sourcing, but Foo Camp is definitely notable. I'll see if I can work on integrating some of these sources soon. Dreamyshade (talk) 00:39, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FOO Bar

[edit]

I was at the first one and I'm pretty sure there was a FOO Bar set up there, not just in 2005. Source anyone? dweinberger — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dweinberger (talkcontribs) 17:28, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there has always been a Foo Bar since the beginning. Marsee (talk) 23:07, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
