Toronto. Saturday, 25 October, 2008. Be there!

Part two of our look at the Universities of the Big Ten Conference. But not the football. Nope; that's boring. We're looking at their online campus maps and how the OpenStreetMap community is progressing in their area as well. Part one covered Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan,
Michigan State and Minnesota.
Northwestern University
Ohio State University

So who has the best campus map of the Big Ten? How do their web site campus maps compare and how is their OpenStreetMap campus shaping up? We look at the Big Ten Conference and OpenStreetMap. Where are the OSM hotspots and where shall we map next?
The first Open Everything event was held yesterday in Toronto. The event was brought to my attention by a couple of my favorite Open Source people and that was enough for me to decide to participate. I didn't know exactly why I should be there and I didn't know exactly what to expect but with a couple of friends there I knew that I could find some fun.
So I went with no expectations and an open mind. I couldn't have been more impressed.
