San Diego

The First Ever IndieWebCamp San Diego!

Event has been confirmed for 2023-12-16…17 at the Blackmarket Bakery. https://indieweb.org/2023/SD

Venue:

• Brainstorming for December 2023
  • Blackmarket Bakery (7am - 4pm) is pretty good. On 30th St. They have a nice fenced in courtyard of good size with several table sizes, shade, power, etc. I believe they have some other locations too dotted around but I can't speak for them.
    • Note: since they close at 4pm we'd likely need another venue to continue brainstorming or for demos (like with a projector? or we use a laptop with a large screen and share window with Zoom to record it)
      • David Shanske has a $40 HDMI projector somewhere
  • Seaside Market in Cardiff is further north (almost a midpoint to Oceanside) - has adjacent Starbucks and outdoor tables.
  • Encinitas is on the Coaster line and has a lot of outdoor venues.
• Maybe not:
  • Most of the Better Buzz's fit the bill but with smaller outdoor footprint - so more of a fight to get a good table.
    • chance of "fight to get a good table" means we shouldn't depend on it for an IndieWebCamp — Tantek Çelik

Organizers:

• Joe Crawford — venue
• Tantek Çelik — wiki planning
• David Shanske - If venue, will travel. Wiki planning, during event assistance, etc.
