Nokia Developer Conference 2009

The rescheduled dates are out; I am planning to attend it this time around.The venue & date for The Nokia Developer Conference 2009 is as follows;

Venue: Trinity, Taj Residency, Bangalore.
Date: 20th January 2009
Official Website: http://www.nokiadevcon.in

If you have been itching to do something on mobile apps, this would be the place to be. With 3G coming to India soon and the already existing millions of mobile subscribers, mobile apps are hot. Serial entrepreneurs & tech industry gurus, all are betting big on mobile applications.

I guess, it would be wise to hear from entrepreneurs who already have a head start in this business. The speaker’s page is here;
http://www.nokiadevcon.in/speakers.html I recall meeting one of the speakers in 2004 & he had a working prototype back then! Right from govt officials, guys from Forum Nokia, operators, mobile game developers, everyone from the telecom industry would be attending, so, I guess it would be a good opportunity to network & keep abreast with the latest in mobile technology. Presentations on Java, Symbian, Web 2.0 etc. are scheduled and interaction with industry these experts too.

The different sessions are Mobile VAS Industry, Mobile Technology Evolution, Technology Showcase, Developer Evangelization & more details are on the sessions page here; http://www.nokiadevcon.in/session.html

This Nokia Developer Conference is bought to you by Forum Nokia, and according to their own words

“The objective of the conference is to inspire and fuel the dreams of developers to create killer mobile applications through support and collaboration.” and also “The Conference will provide the developers a forum, where best minds in the industry will meet and discuss the evolution of the Mobile VAS industry and what the future holds.”

I just read that there are great prizes for mobile application developers at the Nokia Bangalore Conference on the Forum here:

Django hosting

It’s been a while since I posted so apologies for that. It’s been very busy and I hope to get back to regular posting again.

I have been ‘curious’ about Django for a couple of years now & have been regularly checking oon the progress since Django began in 2005. Anyway, I came across a good sale at one of the hosting guides. Web Hosting Search is having a deal with Web Hosting Buzz. The sale was just for the Black Friday holiday in the US. (When everyone goes wild shopping) But, the sale is going on and if you type in ” cybermonday ” when checking out at webhostingbuzz.com, you’ll get $6.99 off of any plan (though it excludes Reseller and VPS accounts).
