Silicon Valley Code Camp

Next weekend, a free software developer "code camp" in Silicon Valley will be held at Foothill College. I'm not going, but I hope some notes about functional programming will be posted on their website. I'm not using functional programming and do not plan to until I've tried it out on some small projects. I am trying to learn more about it due to the influence of Douglas Crockford and his javascript talks. Hopefully by the end of the month I will checkout the basics of the why and what of functional programming.
