BarCamp Delhi update
BarCamp Delhi has gotten amazing response! Over 60 people have signed up so far! Many are flying in from outside of Delhi to participate. Over 20 sessions are already scheduled thus far on topics raging from AJAX to entrepreneurship to open source sofware. We put in order for t-shirts just today so we will have to pray that we get the Tees on time! I have to say I feel proud of apni dilli. Delhi is usually labelled as the "BPO capital" and not much of a software/technology center. Banglore and Hyderabad take all the limelight most of the times. Well, I hope this clears some misconceptions! :)
See you at the BarCamp!

A couple of things, Gaurav;
1) Yes, I too am very excited about BarCampDelhi!! Can't wait to meet all of you there.
2) Delhi, I still feel isn't truly the techie capital, but is getting there. And I too believe it will, which is why I'm on my way there for a conference with you all :)
3) You forget Pune when you talk about Bangalore and Hyderabad. We have some of the biggest software MNCs in pune, including Symantec who I work for.

Hemanshu - complete oversight on my part to leave out Pune from this list! Anyhow, it is great that there is interest in such events in India in general. See you on Saturday!
