Barcamp KL – April 2009

March 29, 2009 by  

Our friends across the causeway will be holding Barcamp KL on 4th & 5th of April 2009 in Level 4, Inti College Subang Jaya. You can check out more information about the sessions and venue via their wiki page. If you are keen on web development, social networks and new ideas from Travel 2.0 to Fashion, this is definitely the event to go. BarCamp is basically a very open, participant-driven workshop event where people share knowledge and ideas and expand their social and business network. There is usually no particular theme. Those people who want to share ideas and knowledge – of any subject, in any field – could register for time and room to host their session. Then, the rest of the people could come to event for free and join any session that they are interested in. If they find that the session uninteresting, they could just leave and go to the next one. Note that Barcamp Singapore III is just over and we are looking forward to the KL and Bangkok one in the coming months.

Barcamp Malaysia 2008 – Aftermath and Thoughts about Malaysia Web Tech Scene

July 28, 2008 by  

After going through the two days in Barcamp Malaysia, I am now back in Singapore. To be honest, the Barcamp Malaysia has been an eye-opener for other fellow Singaporeans and myself who took the trip up to check out the interesting web/tech scene in Malaysia. Developers, entrepreneurs and investors from all walks of life are all gathered in this event, and the best part is that the event still go on with lighting talks (5 minutes given to each presenter and one of the speakers talk about Google Gears) even the official schedule is over.
