What can we expect from the Bootcamp?

During the bootcamp, we will be covering everything you will need to survive the Weekend. Talking points include:

• Intro: What happens in SWM? What's the agenda? Is there a schedule we should follow?
• Pitching: What's it like? Should I pitch? What should I have in my 60 second pitch? What should I include in the final Sunday pitch?
• Teamwork: How are teams formed? If my idea isn't picked, should I leave or join another team? Team culture starts on day one. Don't screw it up.
• Google Technologies: AdSense, HTML5, AppEngine, Maps

We'll be talking about a whole bunch of stuff, including...

Building a Business for the Web & Your App - Cathy Candano, Strategic Partner Manager, Online Partnerships Group, Google SEA
Maps API - Wayne Manuel, GDG PH Community Manager, Geo Advocate, and MapMaker Global Competition Winner
Voice API - Michelle Santos, Developer Relations Manager, GlobeLabs
