BarCamp Manila

Yesterday, I went to BarCampManila with Sheli Moscatel and Mario Carreon. To give you a short background on it,

BarCamp Manila is an ad-hoc unconference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees. All attendees are encouraged to share some form of technical information, be it a software development tip, tools, product demo, open source projects, software, hardware, etc. – in seven (7) minutes!

Overall, I had a great time listening to those interesting talks that the developers shared. I did not share anything because I am currently a student and people might think that I’m way over my head for sharing something that the developers already know. The food’s great. The venue’s very cozy as well. Sadly, some people had to stand because the space was not large enough to accomodate all attendees.

I’m wishing that the organizers will have another BarCamp next year.
