CUSAT Campus, December 7, 2008
The third edition of BarCamp Kerala saw 90 techies, students, entrepreneurs and freelancers come together to share their insights on their area of expertise. The program started off at about 10AM with the self introduction of the participants then on to sessions.
The sessions, which were highly informative and the attendees had their exposure to a few new concepts like free wares from microsoft, mathematics and programming, collabteam, firefox firebug and blender. I am sure many will explore further into these new interesting areas. Also screened was a interesting video which explained the power of social media for information propagation.
