Downtown San Diego had a special electricity in the air this morning.  As I was pulling up to the Stingaree, location where RE BarCamp is being held, I immediately noticed small groups of people buzzing around.  The energy was similar to small children waiting to open gifts on Christmas morning, anticipation and enthusiasm oozing from every person there.

It was a who’s who of the Social Media and Blogging world.  One person commented to me that this was his first barcamp and what he immediately noticed was the positive attitude from everyone there.  He was correct, there was no negative attitudes or haters.

Maybe it’s all the hard work put in by the volunteers or the beginning of a “movement” as Jim Marks stated in his opening comments, but I am not sure there was a better group of people in the world to be around than the group of people who were at RE BarCamp San Diego this morning.

That’s it for now…I gotta get back to the bar camp and learn more from all these great people.
