Finally after a rocking BlogCamp Kerala, its time for a BarCamp Kerala now. This is the third BarCamp in Kerala. For those you asking what is barcamp?
BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from participants.
And as all BarCamps, this will be a unconference. Something that will go against every rule of a normal conference. No boring long speeches, no boring presentations and sit still talks. At unconferences you are supposed to:
BlogCamps are fun! Not that I have been to any. Judging from how the recent barcamp went, it seems that BlogCamp will be hell lot of fun!
The concept of barcamps, meetups and unconferences are slowly catching pace in Kerala judging the crowd at the past 3 barcamps and junior barcamps. Funnily enough, my spell checker says barcamps, meetups and unconferences are not dictionary words. Heck, even blog is not a word in my spell checker!
I was wondering how to reach all the bloggers and to inform them about the event. One list acclaimed by many is the Kerala Blog Roll. Anyone knows any other directories where bloggers can be reached?
Each time I decide I should be posting more frequently on this blog, something or the other keeps coming up. Yea, Fricking excuses. I know. 
February was a great month of sorts with the first weekend spent at the Barcamp. It was a great event with great participation and even greater people. I have to say, that spending time with those thinking like you, greatly changes the way you look at things.

You are informally invited to join us at the BarCamp in Kerala along with your pillows and your loudest snore. It will be greatly appreciated if you can blog about it or spread the word about it somehow or the other. If you blog about it, tell me so that I can add up to the list here.
One of my resolutions for the New Year was to connect with more techies and webbies offline and hence have a pool of contacts I can always count on to
have a drink or a watch a movie together or maybe simply ask about their adsense earnings for the week ;). Orkut was my first stop to find some people offline at my place Cochin. I found a few really interesting people and got in touch with them. It was really great to meet up with them, a bunch of techies who are warm and made me regret I had not taken this decision earlier :). No dollars ever earned gave me the feeling of happiness when people recognize your site and appreciate it. You need to feel it to actually understand what I am trying to say.
I found that Kenny, is in the process of organizing a second BarCamp in Cochin for Kerala after successfully completing the first one in Trivandrum. Whats a BarCamp? The concept of BarCamps are not really known to many including me. Hell, I first heard about the word from Kenny! From what I found online a BarCamp is
