Sun Tech Days '07

I've been recently to Sun Tech Days @ Hyderabad, a 3 day workshop on SUN's technologies (now many being open-sourced) and their applications and advancements. It was a pretty gud session. The main focus was on 3 streams -

1) JavaME - my favourite tech stuff. Most interesting stuff was that there wer a couple of demos that were done from the scratch and those applications were ported on the mobile devices and whoooop they were perfectly done and yup there z great applause from the audience.
2) NetBeans - hmmm it was great to see this IDE do many of d tasks so simple especially the visual designer. I suggest to have a look at this too.
3) OpenSolaris - Think now Solaris Vs Linux seems to be a favorite topic amongst the "OPEN" developers.


Adrenalin due to technology - most important event was that there were 2 teams of 3 professionals each. Every one had 5 min to demo a unusual project for which they worked. We audience had a great rush of adrenalin as what that application would do after those nail-biting 5 min. It was perfect and these demos are mind-blowing. eg., One person demoed an appln using Image processing, AJAX where visual objects were manipulated, made to dance etc using voice commands. Perfect one to have seen there live.

Other highlights included giving away ipods, cool shirts n caps to people selected from a lucky draw. Phew I couldnt get any :(

But I got some pretty stuffs viz., bag, Java cup, key chain etc.,,

The enthusiasm with which people, from acads & industry, moved there was amazing. Surely I can say this is one of the best conferences I've ever attended.

Overall, Enlightened by Sun Tech Days.....

Love your fellow being as Lord Himself..

I'm posting after going through a site of Mother Teresa. I was awaiting such a stuff to go into my mind and add some humanitarian face to my personality to the existing.

People these days are becoming self-centric owing to factors like job, money, social status.. But thanks to corporate companies, they tend to do some helping work to the need on certain special occasions like x-mas etc., But this would look much better if the work they do is done periodically.

A major banking MNC, is sponsoring a Govt. school in Andhra Pradesh, India and the xmas greeting cards they produced had drawings done by the students there, on the face cover. This is another way to let the talents of those rich-at-heart children rise.

Here is the link, I was saying about Mother Teresa. Its worth visting once and follow Her principles.
