On the heels of the iPhone SDK announcement, growing interest in Google’s Android and a whole host of other recent developments, Dan Appelquist of Mobile Monday London and Ian Forrester of BBC Backstage have been organizing a new hybrid conference/hackday for the mobile set here in London.

Like Mobile Camp London, this event will be entirely free to attendees. We’ve got a great venue over at Imperial College London, and room for 400+ participants. For those of you who wanted to come to Mobile Camp, but couldn’t because it cut into your weekend, feel free to drop in to day one on Friday the 4th – Over the Air after all, is work related :)

In addition to the Orange Code Camp happening November 6th and 7th and the Future of Mobile occurring the following week here in London, October and November will be busy months for mobile events. Just a quick scan of Barcamp.org’s homepage reveals several mobile camps happening around the globe:

• Oct. 13th – MobileWebCampParis
• Oct. 28th – MobileCampLA
• Nov. 3rd – MobileCampSF
• Nov. 10th – MobileCampNYC2

If anybody is going to any of the above and blogging, please let me know, it would be great if we could start sharing what’s presented at each of these grassroots events so that everybody gets to learn more.

Carson Systems would like to offer all London Mobile Campers a 15% discount to their one day conference taking place at the BFI IMAX Theatre near Waterloo station. It should be really good with speakers including Marcus Foster from Google, Dan Appelquist from Vodafone/Mobile Monday, Tom Hume from Future Platforms, and many more.

This will be followed by a 1 ½ day Code Camp for techies. Attendees will be split into groups depending on their level of experience, to get really stuck-in to coding and development with hands-on help from the Bubbletop, Pikeo and Design and Usability teams.

In the afternoon of the second day prizes will be awarded to the best mash-ups and widgets!
