From TwinclingConnect2009

The incessant rains in Hyderabad stopped on Sat, 3rd October, the day of Twincling Connect 2009 and a bright sun showed up to boost the spirits.

The afternoon saw very active participation of the Open Source community members and the effort put in by the speakers was mind blowing. Attendees all the way from Vijayawada and Solapur came in to attend the event. The atmosphere was so full of energy that even the attendees delivered impromptu talk sessions on the technology or the project of their interest.

You have to catch up the twitter updates at http://twitter.com/twincling by Ms. Namita Iyer to believe the kind of ideas people came up with.

There were so many discussions going on and finally at 9:45pm (yes 9:45pm) we closed the event to get everybody to pick up some grub and take rest. One round of rains was done and the curtain on this years event was drawn to a close.

To continue the good discussions that started, Namita created the forum discussion topics at
