RE Barcamp NYC is shaping up to be a great event, but it occurred to us that we never formally posted any type of schedule or location information. Now would be a pretty good time to rectify that issue:

First of all, RE Barcamp NYC is going to be located at the Marriott Marquis, Times Square. The room for Barcamp NYC is the Marquis AB. It is the same room for Blogger’s Connect on Wednesday, for those of you attending that, too.

Now that you know where it is, you probably want to know when to be there. Barcamp NYC registration will begin at 9am. Here is our planned schedule:

9:00-9:45 Registration and networking/socializing

9:45-10:00 Introduction and planning of sessions

10:00-10:45 Session 1

10:45-11:00 Break

11:00-11:45 Session 2

11:45-12:00 Break

12:00-12:45 Session 3

12:45-2:00 LUNCH (generously sponsored by Better Homes & Gardens Real Estate)

2:00-2:45 Session 4

2:45-3:00 Break

3:00-3:45 Session 5

3:45-5:00 (or so) MORE sharing/networking/socializing

During each 45 minute session, we should be able to have 2 simultaneous presentations/discussions going on at the same time, if need be. That should allow us to have plenty of great content for everyone. At the very least, there are going to be 5 presentations/discussions that you are NOT going to want to miss.

And don’t forget, the fun doesn’t stop with RE Barcamp NYC. From 6-8pm is another prime networking event, Beer With Bloggers. Beer With Bloggers is the regular kickoff before Inman Real Estate Connect gets underway. Beer With Bloggers is ultra convenient this year, as it is also located at the Marriot Marquis. Join everyone for drinks and socializing at the 8th Floor Atrium of the Marriott. It is going to be a don’t-miss event, for sure.

So now that you know where it is, and what is going on, you have no excuses to miss what is sure to be an awesome event to get your 2009 off on the right foot.

See you in Times Square!

    Thanks Daniel & Todd,

    Is there a wiki version of this, or some other way to see what else is being proposed for specific time slots?

    Just posted two discussion threads on REBarCamp Facebook group, republishing below hoping to find a place on the schedule for both ideas as well as request for presentation:

    DISCUSSION 1:
    Anyone else got a specific site or application you’d like to know more about but are too embarrassed to admit to tech savvy peers? If so, should we begin proposing tech tutorial trades here, on REBarCamp site, or on Twitter?

    DISCUSSION 2:
    Seeking case studies for “ePhilanthropy & Cause Marketing in Real Estate” best practices roundtable at #REBCNY before #icny

    Bill, I know this seems a little disorganized. But trust me, it’s going to work. We did a wiki for the original event. The schedule was never developed any more than what we have now.

    I realize it freaks some people out. I was freaked out in San Fransisco. But it’s going to work.

    Is there a cost/admission fee?
