Be2camp is a place for people interested in how the latest web applications and web design techniques (Web 2.0; eg: RSS, blogs, Twitter, Wikis, Google Maps) could help build a better, more sustainable built environment - from planning and design through construction to occupation and management of buildings, infrastructure, landscape, etc.
Be2camp 2008, the UK's (and possibly the world's) first unconference focused on Web 2.0 and the built environment, was held in London in October 2008, Be2camp North was in Liverpool in May, and Be2camp Brum will be in Birmingham on 12 August. This site gives information about these, and future activities like Be2camp@WorkingBuildings on 7-8 October 2009. Keep in touch: Follow @Be2camp on Twitter.
Use the Groups feature to discuss specific be2camp themes (eg: Second Life, marketing, mashups)? Why not start a group, invite friends and share your ideas?

If you've been to a Be2camp unconference, or simply lurked around Be2camp long enough, you will have heard people talk about Pachube. Well, if you're interested in this technology, now Pachube has its own blog, so you can subscribe to its RSS feed and keep yourself up to date

The Be2camp concept started as a Twitter conversation between Martin Brown and Paul Wilkinson, following Martin's attendance at Barcamp-type events, suggesting we do 'something' for the (UK) built environment. This discussion was picked by Jodie Miners in Australia, through Twitter, and through conversations within Second Life with Pam Broviak from Illinois, USA. The timing of Be2camp 2008 was fixed to coincide with Jodie's visit to the UK, while Pam helped coordinate Be2camp's Second Life activities. So now you know who to contact, praise or blame!
