We are working today to complete the “flattening” of https://t.co/ICpNdnZjDJ, and so the site may be unavailable or just plain weird today. Thanks for understanding!

[thatcamp @thatcamp]

@patrick_mj There are no scripts: just me! And SiteSucker. But that was all me.

[thatcamp @thatcamp]

@patrick_mj That was an aberration caused by my messing around ... sorry!

“I don’t know if I’d say that my THATCamp experiences have been non-hierarchical or fun. I will say that, at the 2013 session I just described and at the event at-large, folks were extremely generous and seemed less concerned with hierarchies” @JimMc_Grath https://t.co/MGZtpn61L7

"A collaborator [said] 'The Brumfields know everyone.' Yes, that’s part of consulting work, but you don’t build those relationships from selling people your time. You build them when you show up and work together on events like THATCamp” - @saracarl https://t.co/NG2huQlLGB

"Conversations at the 2012 THATCamp AHA gave me an opportunity to quit my industry job and work on DH full time, and–with encouragement from yet more THATCampers–I started a more meaningful career” - @benwbrum https://t.co/wOfCcNKKQt

@foundhistory @amandafrench @quinnanya @nirak Sure — am still working on editing the flattened site, so it won’t get replaced until next week.

“THATCamp was our booster rocket, but now comes the much longer journey. So thank you, THATCamp, for being the kick I didn’t know I needed, at just the time that it could do the very most” - @matthewdlincoln https://t.co/AVNEocv5ZS

“Content experts admitted they were tech novices. Attendees were encouraged to get up mid-session to try something else. The wifi wasn’t always strong, but it was always available.” - @SheilaABrennan https://t.co/TTFT5Zol4P

"There’s a clear line from my first THATCamp to where I am now: Dad introduced me to THATCamp; THATCamp introduced me to RRCHNM and George Mason University; now I’m RRCHNM staff and a doctoral candidate at GMU” - @magpie https://t.co/UNOHSFnS1t

Still happy to accept remembrances of THATCamp today and tomorrow ... https://t.co/2CQZSPZczc

“It was two years into Obama’s first term, and while the ‘hope and change’ wasn’t necessarily working out as planned, the rhetoric of ‘yes, we can’ still resonated. THATCamp was like that.” - @quinnanya https://t.co/CVRe6v9J6Y

“What we need next is uncertain: stronger online communities, perhaps; ways to address our role as tech-focused humanists in climate change; and broader conversations about a frightening future for our universities” - @AnaSalter https://t.co/BeA4sKunuA

@dancohen Thanks, Dan!!

“THATCamp pushed back against the normal academic conference modes of panels and lectures, of “let me tell you how smart I am” pontificating, of questions that are actually overlong statements.” - @dancohen https://t.co/ACtw4j3BvB

"In 2008, the opportunity to sit in a room of people who were interested in the overlap of technology and humanities was exciting.…There was not a lot of emphasis on the digital in my MLS program at UMD” -- @spellboundblog https://t.co/cfP00sOiJX

Terrific insight by @jmcclurken: “THATCamp’s role always worked best (in my observations) as an introduction. I think that’s part of why it has run its course. … There wasn’t a clear next step for THATCamp to play in people’s own DH development.” https://t.co/p92U0lszFQ
