Bojug

Java User Group started functioning in Bangalore. The first meeting happened today at Sun Microsystems buildings. Thanks to Sun for allowing the team to conduct the event in their premise and providing facilities to the group.

It was nice to meet different people from different background experience.
The meeting was very friendly and healthy; quite informative too. Two technical sessions were conducted. One on Netbeans IDE usage, module development and the next about Java db. Very well prepared presentation and audience were interested to know more.

People have an idea about doing something useful in terms of project implementation. That would be great thing to happen. We will have a open source development community right at our doorstep (or in our backyard, whichever one wants to see and feel comfortable). With such dynamism, we will have innovation happening among us and technologies shaping here. I feel that is one area India needs to jump in. This meet seems to be a good start.

Looking forward to more jugging.
