Widget Press Organizing iPhone and Mobile Camps in Atlanta, Georgia

Widget Press is pleased to announce the organizing of two free mobile BarCamp-style events in Atlanta, Georgia, iPhone Camp Atlanta 2009 and Mobile Camp Atlanta 2009. The event will take place at the historic King Plow Arts Center in Atlanta on Saturday, July 18, 2009. The one day event will be organized in a BarCamp-style conference where the attendees will create the conference sessions themselves. Event start time is 8 am and ends at 1 pm with a catered continental breakfast served throughout the event.

Trying to keep pace with the fast popularity of the iPhone and iPod touch, the event will be separated into two tracks, helping to best fill the needs of folks interested only in iPhone and iPod touch sessions. iPhone Camp Atlanta will likely have sessions on the iPhone and iPod touch development, iTunes App Store, App demos, iPhone 3.0, business strategies, game development and about everything else under Apple's mobile solution. Mobile Camp Atlanta will focus on sessions related to everything around the Google Androids, Windows Mobiles, Palm Pres and Blackberry mobiles.

The venue was selected to help foster creative and open discussions about mobile technologies. King Plow has been transformed from an antiquated plow factory into an arts community and center for commercial, performing and visual arts. In 1990, the owners designed a plan to build affordable Live/work studios, commercial artist spaces, art galleries, areas designed for the performing arts, and a restaurant within the buildings while preserving their historic and architectural significance. The project started with eleven different buildings. Several of the buildings were built at different periods of time throughout the Plow Company's existence. The oldest, as well as the only two-story building, was built circa 1890. Most of other buildings were built between 1936-38. Because of the different types of architecture involved the renovation of the building created spaces that are truly unique.
