From the origins in Palo Alto, BarCamp is an unconference, meant for knowledge sharing and learning.BarCamp is an international network of user-generated conferences (or unconferences). They are open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants.
The first BarCamps focused on early-stage web applications, and were related to open source technologies, social protocols, and open data formats. The format has also been used for a variety of other topics, including public transit, health care, and political organizing.BarCamp makes their organizational process freely available. In addition to the BarCamp-branded network, it is also a model for user-generated conferences in other fields and for more specialized applications.

The focus of BarCamp Guwahati was emerging open source technologies.Barcamp Guwahati invited technologists, programmers, developers, designers, and Geeks to a day long of unadulterated geeky Barcamp fun.

after the presentation ..

We had a fair share  of joinees and got a lot of response and appreciation .I personally had taken a session on OSGi , along with Faruk Ali Ahmed who is a software engineer. It was a day long event and a very intresting one too.The open house quiz held in between the sessions were very refreshing. A bright day spent along-with bright minds.


Hoping to witness and be a part of many such thought provoking events :-)
