Calling the techies of Kerala!
With BarCampKerala and BlogCampKerala, we made a great stride in getting all of us up and personal offline. I think there are a lot more of techies in Kerala who are scattered and we really need to get to them. This will not only help in organizing cool events in future like a WordPress workshop, a tweetup or more members in CochinBloggers meetup. So, if you are a techie from Cochin trying to reach like minds, I have the following options for you.
The mailing lists of techies which I am a part of and active in are:
- CochinBloggers (Google Group)
- BarCampKerala (Google Group)
- Campus Blogs (Orkut Community)
The google groups are a must join, and our Kerala based sites are galore, but a few which I actively follow are:
- MyTechnopark Forum – Almost all Technopark employees and Trivandrum IT crowd are a part of this forum.
- CochinSquare – Cochin News Blog – My own blog, where me and a few other freelance writers from Cochin share their thoughts.
- KeralaCitizenBloggers – A lot of authors, a lot of views and counter-views. Mostly Techies’ view on the affairs of the state.
The Google groups, especially the CochinBloggers group is full of active techies and we even conduct offline meetups once in a while to discuss the latest in technology and internet. You can also find help these groups for literally any of your ventures. PHP coders, ASP programmers, Adobe AIR, Flash, Game creators, Windows Mobile programmers and every other technology area you can think so.
