Kenney had this great idea about having a BarCampKerala over here and it’s got me really excited. I’ve been to BarCamps in Delhi and one in Hyderabad, and it’s always been an amazing place to talk to good people. I’m pretty sure I’ll find loads of techies in Thiruvananthapuram to contribute and because of the event I’ve already reconnected with some great people I know. Raj from Linuxense is chipping in, and so are many others I’ve yet to meet.

It’s going to happen Nov 24, and we haven’t decided on the venue yet it’s at the UST Zenith hall (next to Coffee Beanz) at Technopark. It should be easy enough to find. Most probably it’s going to be somewhere in or near Technopark.

In case you don’t know what a BarCamp is, it’s an unconference (yes cool word) which anybody can organize and anyone can come and speak on a first-come-first-speak basis. What I love about BarCamps are the discussions on the fringes of talks and the great people that come to them.

Gimme a call (+91.9846087017) if you’re somewhere in the vicinity and want to contribute!

Other assorted stuff:

• The logo banner is plaigarized from this excellent snap by Shabbir.
• There’s a presentation in case you’re looking to rope in a sponsor (or are one yourself).
