Facebook Weekend in Toronto Coming Up

A good friend of mine, Raymond Luk, is involved with Facebook Weekend in Toronto. It’s a combination BarCamp-style unconference and StartupWeekend. For anyone involved in Facebook development or looking at it for their companies, it’s a good chance to meet the community in Toronto.

From what I’ve heard there will be a good number of experienced entrepreneurs as well, to help companies with their startup plans.

Facebook Weekend is this weekend (starting on Friday) and you can sign-up here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=5803124517.

I should have gotten this notice out earlier, but such is the life of a crazed entrepreneur.

    Startup plans for facebook applications? Maybe I am not fully understanding, but how can one have a business plan wrapped around a facebook application?

    HDR – I’m not sure, I guess we’ll have to wait and see. I suspect we haven’t yet seen the sweet spot of FB applications that have business opportunity beyond advertising. As well, companies are still not getting strategic enough on how they use FB apps within the greater context of their business.

    Very interesting information Ben…I never heard of this before..not until I get to read your post. I also become more interested when I read the line that says “there will be a good number of experienced entrepreneurs as well, to help companies with their startup plans.”

    Anyway…Thanks a lot for this post Ben :-)
