Today , for most of the day , I was at the Barcamp Kerala 10 venue in the SCMS campus at Kochi. This would have been the most participatory barcamp which has been conducted uptil now. I think , now we are living up to the image of an unconferencing event.
Met Kenny , Binny , Anand , Hari KT , Eldhose ,Arun Basil Lal, Juwal Bose (regulars at Barcamps ) after a gap of six months. This time , Kenny Jacob started a lively session which fundamentally says that Language is one of the most important cause for Human Intelligence. Being a person who believes in Linguistic Determinism ( Sapir Whorf Hypothesis ) , I was mostly in sync with Kenny's argument.
The next session was taken by me and it is about Snobbery and I did present some Anti-Snobbery device. Judging by the people's reaction , Some found it to be useful.
The next session was about PR . Unfortunately , I had to go out for a personal reason and missed the presentation.
I also missed the first part of the presentation on http://whatiswrongwith.me/ . But , I enjoyed whatever I have heard from them. I did put a suggestion them to have list of questionnaire's to decide one's negative points. Recently , I had undergone Strengthfinder 2.0 test @ http://www.strengthsfinder.com/home.aspx
After the lunch , Binny VA did a good session on "Development : What they do not teach you anywhere " .Some notable tools were Workstation , Chairs , Regular Expressions , Community and there was a lively discussion on this.
The Next Session was on Cyber Warfare and I learned a lot of terms and their exact meaning . The presenter has taken lot of pains to prepare those slides and were good.
After the Cyber Warfare session , there was a session on Friday , a unique software from dextra. Even though , it was a product demo, It seems most people enjoyed it and wholeheartedly participated in the discussion. The presenter has good skills to put the idea across.
The Last session was on Financial Engineering by Mathew. He was aided by Mr. Sanjay George by keying in the key points of the topic. Couple of guys participated in the discussion and things were interesting. I participated in the ensuing discussion.
I really enjoyed the event and met lot of new Individuals . I also met erstwhile colleagues Rahul and Sanal after a gap of three months.
