Barcamp Mumbai and Blogcamp Mumbai Style

Barcamp Mumbai (barcampmumbai.org) was a fantastic unconference, as they say. It was really an unconference, i liked the unorganising thing, though it was bit problematic. No issues enjoyed a lot.....................IT was at the IIT school of Management Powai...................For all those

Barcamp Mumbai (bardcampmumbai.org) is different from Barcamp MU3(barcamp.org/barcampmu3). MU3 is the universoty edition of Barcamp. It is where Barcamp is conducted in colleges or universities, and where the target audience is limited..................

Today's Barcamp(barcamp.org) was a Mumbai chapter hence the name Barcamp Mumbai Style(barcampmumbai.org) ........... There where hell lot of topics being discussed today.................

I initially thought that I reached late, as I reached Barcamp Mumbai (bardcampmumbai.org) at around 10:30. But fortunately I was at the Barcamp(bardcampmumbai.org) when the Wiki, or the sessions where just scheduled. ..................

Todays Barcamp Mumbai Style(bardcampmumbai.org) had 4 major heads to be discussed.
1 - Startups : where new startup where demoed etc...
2 - Blogging,Web 2.o : Covering blogging, Web 2.0, SEO (Search Engine Optimization), SMM etc...
3 - Tech : Covering topics on Hacking Nintendo DS, Creating Wordpress application, Facebook Apllications etc...
4 - Other (Misc) : Covering rest of the topics like Sun Startup(Sun where the major sponsors), etc....

I attended all the Pre lunch sessions at the Startup heads which was at the IRC Audi of IIT SJSOM (the venue for Barcamp Mumbai Style).................
Detail on this in the next post..............

Post lunch, i attended SEO(search engine optimization) sessions, hacking Nintendo DS, Sun Startup(http://www.sun.com/emrkt/startupessentials/index.jsp), tagg.in(tagg.in)................

We had very good lunch, coffee, tea, and fast food provided kudos to the UNorganisers.

But some issues i like to highlight are:
1 - Not all sessions planned where executed.
2 - The planning of the wiki really takes time and the breakfast should be kept simultaneously.

But no hard feelings, it happens. All and all a very fruit full day.....

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaait!!! the best part is yet to be told.........

Got many goodies like a
1 - Flex(http://www.adobe.com/products/flex) book from Brajeshwar(brajeshwar.com) himslef, 33
2 - Wikipack(contains the whole Wikipedia(http://en.wikipedia.org) site on a DVD) from Webaroo (webaroo.com) guys, and
3 - a T-shirt :)))

More on the BarCamp Series

Barcamp and Blogcamp the coming...........The veneue is at IIT SJSOM on 29th April..............
The best part it is, this time there are two Barcamps..... It is a combination of Barcamp Mumbai Chapter plus the Blogcamp(Barcamp on Blogging)(http://barcamp.org/BlogCampMumbaiStyle), in the series...... This Blogcamp is the from the organisers of the First Blogcamp conducted at Pune (http://barcamp.org/BlogCampPune)

After the very successful BarCampMU3 chapter, this is a quite huge one..............I think such Blogcamp Mumbai Style amd Barcamp Mumbai are a great medium for socializing, networking, marketing whatever you name it..............At least we come across some like minded people, which after college is hard to find.

Just waiting eagerly to attend it.......................
Dunno will it be possible for me, since we have our college presentations going on Research Papers.
