    And somewhere there are engineers,
    Helping others fly faster than sound.
    But where are the engineers
    Helping those who must live on the ground?

Barcamps over the world: BCB3/Minnebar

I think I am kinda special. Not quite like Paris Hilton special, but getting a  chance to attend two Barcamps separated by 8000 miles in a span of 3 weeks has got to be some kind of special stuff. I think the big guy above is smiling at me. Invest in my equity. This is an article outlining some of the interesting differences I saw between the barcamps in Bangalore (BCB3, 31 March -April 1, 2007 ) and Minnesota(Minnebar 2007, 21 April). This is not an article intended to compare or pass a judgement. Just throwing up some observations, fwiw . I am not offering explanations, I am not a socio-anthropology by training. Some of these do not require a degree to arrive at the reason of causation, but I want to keep this blog close to what I saw, not what I think. At most, some "could-be"s.

The drive cannot really be called scenic, unless you put it in compare mode against Ohio, I guess. I really wanted to see a barcamp outside India and there was no way I would this one in Minneapolis (since I was already in the area.)  So I got up at 3:46 am. The rest is sweet memories. Minnebar  (pronounced minibar) is in its second edition. It is  a BarCamp organised by enthusiasts in the twin cities of St. Paul/Minneapolis, Minnesota.    You can see the pictures here.   William Gurstelle literally blew us with his presentation on explosive underground technologies: potato guns, pumpkin throwers, tesla coils. He is the author of 5 books on how to increase the entropy of the unverse by factors of 10 or alike.    In some sense, the starCamper, if there be one was David Hans...

Work at a call center

  A nice article on the Jeff Bezos school of management. I am a strong supporter of this ethic. It just makes the world a better place.
