CBEUG @ Karunya University on 20th March 09


Mr. Siddarth Prakash, Program manager, Microsoft along with CBEUG - Coimbatore User Group conducted a seminar on Introduction to .net, Visual Studio 2008, Microsoft Academic Initiatives and a lot of cool demos in the premises of Karunya University on 20th March 2009.
Karunya University is located 25 kms away from Coimbatore.
There were more than 1100+ attendees from 1st, 2nd, 3rd years of IT and CSE Department. It was organized by the .net club of Karunya University. The students were really very enthusiastic and interactive.
The session went on for a period of one hour, and the enthusiastic crowd required more time to shoot questions at Siddharth, who also was dynamically answering them. The Director of the Engineering Block, Mr. Blessing was very instrumental in making this event a grand success. The students of the college also spent some quality time with Siddharth and the Microsoft Student Partners to learn more about their ideas and future plans.

Tadoba: A Journey into India's Majestic Wilderness

Image
India has always amazed with its vast wonders—its diverse cultures, its people, the snow-capped Himalayas. Until recently, I had never considered wildlife as one of these wonders. But a visit to Tadoba National Park, one of India's most densely populated tiger reserves, changed everything.  Over the course of a three-day jungle safari, I came to realize that the natural world, untamed and vibrant, was yet another breathtaking layer of India’s magic. Our journey was unique from the beginning. Without mobile phones, cut off from the outside world, we trusted entirely in the instincts and wisdom of our forest guard. It was a profound experience, riding an open jeep through the dense forest, feeling the pulse of the wilderness as it enveloped us. Each safari felt like a treasure hunt, a careful grid search undertaken by teams scattered across the forest, everyone guessing, converging, trying to piece together clues left by the elusive tigers. One of ...

Life is filled with lessons

I hope most of you might have experienced this in your final year of college. All that you hear is placement, training etc. If you happened to get any tips from your seniors or staffs, all they say is "you need to have a right attitude which is very difficult to build", "you should go for some personality development classes". Well if you ask me, I would say it can be easily built and no need for going to any of these classes. Lesson can be learnt from every incident and thing you do in your life. I completely believe that they happen just to teach you some valuable lesson. One such example is Age of Empires(AOE). It’s a strategy game in which most of us fail to understand its valuable lessons. This game has personally changed me and my friends in terms of attitude and approach in life. It may sound insane, but its very true. Ask any AOE player, I bet he would say the same, if not ask him to read this post because he has failed to implement them.
