Except even that isn’t quite true, because you can still add to the story:

If you have photos you’d like to share, we have a Flickr pool set up for you to contribute too.

Here are some of our photos we’d like to share:

There’s always the BarCamp Posterous blog. You can still email in photos, video, audio, and commentary.

At BarCamp, we streamed the presentations through UStream. We also recorded them; however, due to some technical issues, some sessions remain unavailable.

Many presenters, however, have been kind enough to send us links to embeddable online slideshows for their presentations as well.

Here’s where to find them:

We’re on a hard push for Sponsors and Speakers.

For Sponsors, please give big shouts to our existing sponsors (they’re displayed in the header of this site) and reach out to more.  We’ve some awesome in-kind and door sponsors, and are needing financial sponsors (stroke a check type) to help pay for t-shirts! Minimum sponsorship levels start at merely $300. Visit the Sponsor page for details.

Tonight we’re posting the topics that have come in to-date.  Let us hear from you via response on this post, email or even call us at 901-214-5862.

And by all means, please register now. Thank you!

Here’s a little excerpt from last year’s introduction to BarCamp ‘08:

Let’s begin by deciding what BarCamp, most definitely, is not. BarCamp is not every other conference you’ve ever been to. The ones with cold coffee and colder speakers discussing topics that have been decided, possibly months in advance, with little or no audience input. It is not something you go to planning to sit still, look straight ahead, and try not to cough… or snore. It is the un-conference.

BarCamp is interactive and user-generated. There are pre-chosen topics interspersed throughout the day to help start things off. These topics are things that every BarCamper can use (programming languages, social media, social networks). After that, it’s all up to you. Anyone and everyone who comes to BarCamp can come with a topic in hand, prepared to share it with their fellow Campers. When it’s time to begin, you get to vote on exactly you want to hear that day. The result is the most relevant, informative, and interesting conference possible for you, today. Said simply, BarCamp becomes exactly what you want it to be.

BarCamp will have rooms set aside for open discussion on the topics that matter to you most (i.e. the ones you choose). There will be panel discussions throughout the day on those subjects where two (or more) heads are better than one. Even the traditional presentations are more exciting when you get to pick them yourself.

Registration will begin soon for BarCamp ‘09!

We’ve especially got to thank people like Mary Cashiola from The Memphis Flyer, Paul Ryburn and MLGW, who all gave us promo plugs on their blogs, and Bob Hazlett at OneHalfAmazing.com, JT Rigsby and Sarah Christine Bolton, who all featured great SocialCamp wrap-up posts on their sites. And we can’t forget Lisette Casey, who gave us a shout-out all the way from Colorado on the Ramblings of a Professional Learning Community blog.

Big kudos go to our organizers and volunteers, who dedicated hours to making SocialCamp a reality. (We’re also pretty indebted to our sponsors, whose logos and links you can find above.)

And since we’re in the thanking mood, we’ll thank you in advance. For what, you ask? Why, for helping us out with a Start/Stop/Keep Webinar on SocialCamp tomorrow morning at 11:30! You can call in (on 347-857-2345) or tweet us @socialcampmem with your suggestions and ideas for what we should start doing next time, what we should keep and what we should stop altogether. You can listen to the entire brainstorming session here. Your ideas and comments will help us hone the next SocialCamp experience in Memphis to be the best it can be.

Don’t forget to mark your calendars for BarCamp Memphis, happening November 14.

It’s a good exhaustion; we put our all into this weekend, and it was apparent from everyone we talked to that the presenters did, too. So it’s the exhaustion of accomplishment we’re feeling.

We had unending participation from attendees, from the stream of tweets coming in to the @socialcampmem account to the SocialCamp Posterous blog.

The sessions were great and varied, ranging from the irreverent, like “Don’t be a Social Media Douchebag” and “How I Screwed Up Using Social Media,” to the specific and business-focused, like “Facebook for Small Business,” “Advertising on Facebook (or YouTube) 101,” and “Social Media for Enterprise Collaboration.” No matter what your skill level, SocialCamp had something for you to learn.

But the best part, by far, was the attendees. The major draw of SocialCamp is meeting and hanging out with great people who are all interested in great ways to utilize the internet and new technologies.

If there was one single thread running through the minds of SocialCamp attendees, it was that they loved the presentations, but treasured the opportunity to speak with the presenters throughout the event.

Thanks again to all of our sponsors who are the ones who made SocialCamp possible:

• Social Media Expedition
• MPACT
• CustomXM
• South of Beale
• Buck Rogers/Buck Daddy Blog
• Resolute Games
• Kooky Canuck
• Memphis Academy of Science and Engineering
• Fanfare Media Services
• Pique Creative Agency

and hosts:

• LunaWeb
• LaunchMemphis

We’re extremely grateful to have had everyone we have had on board. If you enjoyed your ‘Camping’ experience, you don’t have to wait for the next SocialCamp; there’s all kinds of things happening all over the place if you want to keep involved.

Coming up over the course of the next few months, we have:

1. September 27-28 – WordCamp Birmingham
2. October 7 – Social Expedition (Breakfast)
3. October 17 – BarCamp Nashville
4. October 24 – RealCamp (as in tents, campfire etc…)
5. November 14 – BarCamp Memphis

Keep your eyes peeled for more information about each of these events, and we’ll see you in time for the next SocialCamp Memphis!
