The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk


I am proud to announce that Bar Camp Tampa Bay will host The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk!

Come join us as we swap things with the TJIMBOEJ for a 2 hour slot, event room/time details to be announced on Saturday (Dev/Tech day).  Please bring some electronic goodies that you would like to trade but, keep it small enough to fit in a USPS flat-rate Priority Mail box. We will write up, photograph, document and publish all swaps on a flickr site to be determined but tagged with TGIMBOEJ and TBTECH. You can see more info on the contents of our box coming all the way from Huntsville, AL at http://igotalongdomainname.com/tgimboej.html

Remember, the goal is to “swap-junk” - so bring items you may have lying around that are not of value which you are willing to trade for other ‘junk’ items.
What is The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk?
The Great Internet Migratory Box Of Electronics Junk is a progressive lending library of electronic components. An internet meme in physical form halfway between P2P zip-archive sharing and a flea market. It arrives full of wonderful (and possibly useless) components, but you will surely find some treasures to keep. You will be inspired to look through your own piles, such as they are, and find more mysterious components that clearly need to be donated to the box before it is passed on again.
