[BarCamp Sydney](http://www.barcampsydney.org/?ref=katecarruthers.com) is on again - so block out Saturday 27 June 2009 in your diary.

This is [5th BarCamp Sydney](http://www.barcampsydney.org/2009/05/29/barcamp-sydney-5-the-recession-edition/?ref=katecarruthers.com) & the un-organising committee has tagged this one as the *Recession Edition* or “*the BarCamp we had to have*” (paraphrasing [Keating from 1990](http://www.australianpolitics.com/executive/keating/keating-chronology.shtml?ref=katecarruthers.com)).

There's a new venue this time, with the kind folks at the [Australian Technology Park (ATP) Innovations Centre](http://www.atp.com.au/index.html?ref=katecarruthers.com) providing the space for free (kudos to them for this support).

Any potential sponsors should get in touch with the the un-organisers and let them know via [email](mailto:barcamp-sydney-unorganisers@googlegroups.com).

One innovation that I'm really keen on for this Barcamp is the *Think Tank room*. The Think Tank room is a small room with no projector and no tech - just enough room for a small group of people discussing ideas. And what better ideas to discuss than ideas about the future. For some more background on this idea check out the [Barcamp Sydney blog](http://www.barcampsydney.org/2009/05/29/barcamp-sydney-5-the-recession-edition/?ref=katecarruthers.com).
