First ever BarCamp in Kerala on November 24th, 2007

This is exciting news! The first and foremost BarCamp is going to be held in Kerala, this November 24th. It’s probably going to be hosted at the Technopark Auditorium, Trivandrum, (actually the venue is not decided yet.) This is the first of it’s kind happening in Kerala, and I have mixed emotions regarding it.

I’m happy because it’s happening in the building, next to where I work.
Sad because, I’ll miss the usual travel and on-flight adventures.

Nevertheless, this sounds cool as this BarCamp had been in the planning for quite a long time, and if it materializes, that’s something to be happy about. (Psst..I had registered for this, an year ago.) :0

The last camp I attended was at Chennai, Oct 6th-8th at TidelPark, where I had a session on “Blogging and SEO” and the memories are still lingering. Here are the pictures from SearchCamp Chennai if you missed it. register for Barcamp Kerala here. Photo courtesy – Shabbir Siraj
