i Will b Camping few days in Bar :)

Hey Folks, don't get astonished, me-the nice behaved guy has decided to get himself "poured" and "soaked" into whatever flows at BarCamp .

On top of it, one of the host, Kiruba, intends to delegate HOSPITALITY Function for the event to me, yes, thats correct.

Now imagine this, already I am participating in Vodkathon! so in what state of mind and body I would be to take care of esteemed participants at BarCamp.......

Jokes apart guys, this is very very interesting forum of us and us only. I mean there will be Sharkhun or Aamir of the cine world, nor will be NarayanMurthys or Azim Premzis of the IT world or for that matter any one already having traditional fan following may not be permitted.

Just get an idea of the "spirit" of the show before you proceed, this will help you make better sense of my chatter in following few paras.

All we aspire in hospitality desk is to treat each of our distinguished participants / volunteers / sponsors/ partners / organizers / other BarCamp Champs, with respect for their mindshare and pertinent participation / contribution in making this event happen as planned.

It is already being reported to be a world class kick off an international forum in Chennai and incidently also at Hyderabad on 8th-9th Apr'06.

We are working out exact details on the hospitality related support we need, however, do let me know your queries/comments etc via post on this blog or at skgc7j at gmail dot com or SMS (98410-61512) or YahooIM @ suneet_21 or Skype - babloosaheb........I am sure you have some thing to say after reading this so am sharing all the coordinates which can be used to reach me on the subject.

Some of the pointers for you to think -

0.a) Participate by Presenting on what is up your sleeves - it could be any thing about per se or could be in IT related areas....act fast and there is tremendous pressure for 2 days of action (read fun) packed learning (read leg pulling of new ideas) ahead

0.b) Volunteer - i am told there are tons of them, but I believe there is no problem of plenty ever and thus do let me know for Our Hospitality Cell I am looking for -

1. People who can lend cars / any other 4 wheelers / CABs etc for helping outstanding folks commute seamlessly

2. Volunteers who can accomodate esteemed outstation speakers as family guest for 1-2 nights

3. Folks who can receive and also see off outstation teams / delegates

4. Center Operations Center - would need to work 24 x 7 from 7th Apr'06 till we wind up the show (that includes cleaning the premises and cleaning the Wiki site based on the proceedings)---- here we will need a place with land line(s), net commection and probabily a rest room ie working home cum office

5. Sponsors

5.1 Helpline cells - we can play your desired mp3 tune.....if needed :)
5.2. Banners for Railway Stn and Airport, Bus Stand etc.....(who knows if UFOs could land at venue as well)
5.3. Stickers for all Vehciles being used for commuting on duty

6. Strong Admin Team - To get to interact with Police Dept, any other government agency and also Les Conceirge services for ticket changes, First Aid Support, Babby Sitting?? etc.........

Drop in your ideas/queiries/comments/etc as soon as convenient to you, have nice week ahead, take care, see you Soon :)
