Consumer Camp

Consumer Camp is an event started by Marques Lyons, a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional in the area of Zune. It was born out of a desire to showcase the great consumer-oriented technology made by Microsoft in a fun and approachable way.

You can follow Consumer Camp on Twitter (@consumercamp) or join our Facebook page.

If you wish to put on a Consumer Camp event, I’ve written three articles to help you get started with formulating, organizing, executing, and analyzing: Article One / Article Two / Article Three.
