We're super excited to announce WhereCamp 2010 is almost here! It's free but you need to be one of the lucky first 300 registered to attend! Watch us at http://wherecamp.org and http://blog.wherecamp.org and http://twitter.com/wherecamp for ongoing updates!
This year we're doing it at Google Campus.

Just as with previous WhereCamps, this is an unconference, anyone and everyone is welcome to come and discuss local, maps, augmented reality, open standards, open ecosystems and more!
Join us for two days of fun - all you have to do is participate, educate, learn, contribute and share. We all want to hear each others voices - yours too. Sessions are organized in a bottom up way where any participant can propose a talk, topic or discussion which are held in multiple streams in multiple rooms.
Expect late night werewolf games, music, geocaching and more tomfoolery should be expected and encouraged.
Please sign-up!!
You can also help us get ready for the big weekend:
Do you know anybody that should come and speak or listen?
Then please pass this invite along!
Know anyone that can help us with our minimal costs?
We're looking for sponsors so please put us in touch!
Also! Please update the Wiki as needed (http://wherecamp.org) and follow @wherecamp on Twitter here: http://twitter.com/wherecamp
It should be another awesome WhereCamp!
Let's make 2010 our best yet!
Yours &c.

Just register and show up. By simply indicating your attendance here on this page you are registered. The event is free - we need registration to plan food.

Another question: How does the tent thing work? Does google provide tents (the pictures I see have the google branding). Is there a location where I can leave my luggage during the event (I would be heading over from Where 2.0)

Is there a suggested hotel nearby, or will people stay at the hotel for Where 2.0?

We did get tents from google for fun one time - but you can't count on that - it was more just a really great kind of promo thing they did. WhereCamp moves around to different venues and we happen to be back at Google ( well because they are so awesome ).
Regarding luggage - I feel like I should have an answer for that - but I don't yet. It seems to me that we could arrange something with Google Security?
And regarding a suggested hotel. Good point. I'll sort that out today and try update the wiki with that information.

Look forward to the event!
