Today my colleague gave me a leaflet advertising Social Innovation Camp. The idea sounds interesting and most likely I will try to attend because there will be a camp taking place in Glasgow. Now I just need a great idea or two...
New interest and new blog - Apertoire

BarCamp Scotland 2009
March 15, 2009
Yesterday I attended BarCamp Scotland for a second time. I arrived late so I missed some presentations but otherwise the day was great. This time I did not present anything even though I had a plan to do so. My Selenium presentation's technical demo was not working properly so I decided to skip this time.
I think this year the highlights were Mike Masnick's presentation about 'Business Models for a Digital Era' and after that an interesting discussion about online personal profile management. Time between presentations was spent on networking and I ended up convincing couple fellow developers to try out Selenium. Even though I warned that it is not a perfect tool but it definitely beats writing test cases manually for HttpUnit.
Some photos from the event can be found from my Flicker account under BarCampScotland tag.
