Great Indian Developer Summit - 2012, at IISc, Bangalore

Great Indian Developer Summit - 2012, at IISc, Bangalore

Wow. What an experience today, first of its kind for me at IISc. Felt really proud of seeing a lot of pratical real brains in action at the dias; Practitioners from google, thoughworks, redhat, GrapeCity, GS, IBM etc and much more...

From checking in to the auditorium at 8:15am till checking out at 7pm, it was a packed up schedule. Had a good chance to attend the sessions from top notch Java evangelists from the Software Devleopment Industry. Though every session was special in its own style, I personally felt that the most welcomed and impecable sessions were unianimously from Dr. Venkat Subramaniam, founder of Agile Developer, Inc - Excellent Speech!

Be it - Java 7, Lambda expressions, Concurrency with Clozure or the Scala language - he was the best! I really had a bunch of take aways from this summit, which will surely make an impact in the way we have fun with programming.

Looking forward to attend/listen to more sessions from @venkat_s.
