Danny, Quinn and Gilbert have decided to turn their San Jose back yard into a campsite for people attending the O’Reilly Emerging Technology Confernece. In honor of Burning Man, they’ve decided to call the event “Emerging Man,” and they’ve got room for ten.
Differences Between Burning Man and Emerging Man
Instead of Labor Day weekend, Emerging Man will be from Apr 21- Apr 27, to coincide with Emerging Tech
Instead of being a neoprimitive celebration of someone’s girlfriend running off with their best mate, it’s a little micro-campsite for people who spent all their money buying a ticket for EmergingTech and so need somewhere cheap to stay (or just don’t want to live in another expensive hotel room or spend three hours commuting from San Francisco )
Instead of being in the hot Nevada desert, it’ll be in our quite nice back garden behind OurHouse
Instead of costing hundreds of dollars, it will be free (a daily NappyTax may be charged)
Much closer to civilisation – you’ll be PrettyCloseToEmergingTech and VeryCloseToSanJose
No exciting theme camps, though you can expect a lot of SocialHacking – and BiellasFamousReadingGroup will be down at the weekend.
No burning (although there will be a BarbequeOfSorts )
And we’re looking at the max ten people, not eighteen gazillion, so BookNowToAvoidDisappointment
(Thanks, Danny!)
