<p>Twestival 2011 is going to happen worldwide on 24th March 2011.<a href="http://www.ranjith.me/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/cochin-twestival-2011.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-8397" style="border: 0pt none; margin: 4px;" title="cochin twestival 2011" src="http://www.ranjith.me/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/cochin-twestival-2011.jpg" alt="" width="190" height="180" /></a><br />
Twestival is short form for Twitter Festival. It is basically a mega tweet-up with lots of things added. In short, it is the ultimate Twitter Festival. Twitter Festivals or Twestivals happen all around the globe once a year. Twestival is one day event happening in multiple cities. The major aim of Twestival is the meet those who all are behind the tweets and join hands for a noble cause. The real power of Twestival is when everything comes together on one day, giving focus to an important cause, the cause being different every year.</p>
<p>Cochin Twestival is part of the Global event happening on 24th March 2011 and will be held at Cochin Gymkhana , vytilla , Cochin in the state of Kerala , India. Cochin Twestival aims at supporting <a href="http://www.adarshrehab.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Adarsh Chartiable Trust</strong></a>.  Adarsh is an institute started by a wonderful set of people caring for and enabling the rehabilitation of differently-abled children. They lend more than a helping hand to children who have been diagnosed with brain-developmental-disorders such as Cerebral Palsy, Autism, learning disorders which in most cases forces the children to drop out of or never attend conventional schools at all. They have grown from a modest institute looking after 7 children to an inspirational one helping over 230 children from all communities. A casual glance at their website, <a href="http://www.adarshrehab.org/" target="_blank">www.adarshrehab.com</a> endears one to their cause. It is a work of great proportion, and the numbers involved can definitely be increased if we pitch in with support. Adarsh encourages children from the ages of 6 months to 12 years to be brought to their school for therapy and training, where they would be relegated to the care of trained therapists and medical consultants from various disciplines, and provided counseling. It does not end there &#8211; the children are also made to feel completely at home and equally like anyone else, by maintaining the atmosphere of a normal school, with uniforms, time-tables, assembly, competitions, excursions, etc.</p>
<p>It is the responsibility of each human being to help the needy ones. We have got a chance to live a better life with the “grace of God”, that doesn’t mean that we should just enjoy our and should worry about the society. We as responsible human beings should shape a happy living and should also help the needy people. A small donation can bring smile to faces of the children you require your hand as support. So come join hands with us at this edition of Cochin Twestival, and let us use the power of Kerala&#8217;s largest social media event to shout out to the world that these children are not alone.. that they have friends, love  and support from all over the world!</p>
<p style="font-size: medium;">This year we have sponsors who have come up to support the event. <strong><a href="http://www.hopeeduc.com" target="_blank">HOPE (Home of Perfect Education)</a> , <a title="ITnet InfoCom" href="http://www.itnetinfo.com" target="_blank">ITnetInfoCom</a> , Grand Palace hotel Qatar, <a href="http://www.cabotsolutions.com" target="_blank">Cabot Solutions</a> , <a href="http://www.centipair.com" rel="dofollow">centipair</a> and <a href="http://www.dell.co.in/home">DELL</a></strong> has come out as sponsors for this years Cochin Twestival.

<p>Since the huge Air tragedy at Mangalore last saturday facebook and twitter profiles of the people died in the tragedy are getting a huge visits and some people feels the comments that are posted are little unfair in the contest. The Social media hasn&#8217;t been able to tackle this problem in a good way.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1185" style="margin: 5px; border: 0pt none;" title="FacebookLogo" src="http://www.ranjithkavarachan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/FacebookLogo.jpg" alt="" width="196" height="90" />I&#8217;ve found only facebook is putting some effort into this by introducing <a href="http://www.facebook.com/help/?ref=pf#!/help/contact.php?show_form=deceased" target="_blank">report a deceased users profile page</a>. they introduced it sometime back but not everyone know about it.  i first came across it last year when a friend of mine died and i reported it to facebook..</p>
<p>Use this to reduce the unfair and unwanted comments in the deceased users facebook profile</p>
<p>here is the link one more <a href="http://www.facebook.com/help/?ref=pf#!/help/contact.php?show_form=deceased">http://www.facebook.com/help/?ref=pf#!/help/contact.php?show_form=deceased</a><br />

<p>&#8220;Privacy&#8221;, is often the big cry of facebook users. with facebook changing policies many people feels like their private data is not safe with facebook.   some mourn over the apps that invade their privacy some over their contact settings. There is always something  hidden for an end user regarding privacy.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.reclaimprivacy.org/" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1368" style="margin: 3px;" title="reclaimprivacylogo" src="http://www.ranjithkavarachan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/reclaimprivacylogo-150x150.png" alt="" width="150" height="150" />http://www.reclaimprivacy.org/</a> is an initiative to help users to check their privacy risks. They provides an <strong>independent</strong> and <strong>open</strong> tool  for scanning             your Facebook privacy settings.  They promise &#8220;<em>The <a href="http://github.com/mjpizz/reclaimprivacy">source code</a> and its  development will always remain open and transparent.&#8221; </em></p>
<p>The Process to check your facebook  Privacy with their tool is relatively simple</p>
<ol>
<li> Drag this link to your web browser bookmarks bar:                     <strong> <a title="Scan for Privacy" href="javascript:(function(){var%20script=document.createElement('script');script.src='http://static.reclaimprivacy.org/javascripts/privacyscanner.js';document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(script);})()">Scan  for Privacy</a> </strong></li>
<li> Log in to <a href="http://www.facebook.com/">facebook.com</a> and then click that bookmark</li>
<li> You will see a series of privacy scans that inspect  your privacy settings and warn you about                     settings that might be unexpectedly public.</li>
<li> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Reclaim-Privacy/121897834504447">Follow  us on Facebook</a> to hear about the latest updates.</li>
</ol>
<p>It checks a number of factors like apps , contact settings , personal settings , instant personalization etc to measure if the privacy is been compromised</p>
<p>I did a privacy check of my facebook profile and found the &#8220;Instant  Personalization&#8221; was turned on..  thanks to the reclaimprivacy team to help me know about it and shut it off<br />

<p>yet another Saturday with a  full day event to my schedule. Today(17th April 2010) it was the Malayalam Wikipedia Meet. The venue for the event was Rajagiri college of social sciences , kalamassery. It is always a Nostalgic feeling for me to be back in kalamassery campus of Rajagiri.</p>
<p>I reached at the venue few minutes past 10.  as i reached the venue a session (Report of Malayalam Wikipedia) was on going. As soon as i reached i got chance to meet <a href="http://twitter.com/tinucherian" target="_blank">Tinu Cherian </a>,<a href="http://twitter.com/manjithkaini" target="_blank">Manjith Kaini</a>, <a href="http://twitter.com/anoopan" target="_blank">Anoop Narayanan</a> , <a href="http://twitter.com/bipinkdas" target="_blank" class="broken_link">Bipin K Das</a> etc..</p>
<p>The Second session was by sunil. it was about the &#8220;copyright&#8221;. It was a lot informative. He tried his best to convey the good practices to make sure you don&#8217;t violate a copyright. He explained about the Wikipedia rules on copyright and also about the creative commons.. and i asked him &#8220;Is there any country which doesn&#8217;t have any image copyright policies ??&#8221; Manjith Kaini was always around helping everyone with the doubts on wikipedia.</p>
<p>Yet another Question that was raised in the discussions was which is better &#8211;&gt; Inscript  Typing or Manglish Typing..  even the Manglish typers suggested Inscript is better..</p>
<p>lunch was served to us at the College canteen. it was good !!</p>
<p>After the lunch Manjith kaini explained about various other section of malayalam wikipedia family like the wikibooks, wikisource, wikiquotes, wiktionary etc.</p>
<p>A Session on adding new article in wikipedia and also editing them was taken by Shiju alex and Anoop Narayanan. It was really great session for the new people of malayalam wikipedia. They explained it by a live example of adding wiki article about Rajagiri college of social Sciences. After the session we had tea break.</p>
<p>Soon after the break we had The biggest event&#8211;&gt; malayalam Wikipedia CD release by  Anwar sadath(Executive Director of It @school project). It is the First of its kind ever in India. The CD was later distributed among all the people who came for the meet.  Anwar Sadath spoke about the need of open source knowledge sharing in todays world..  After that We had Mr Vimal speaking about the Open source in general and that was the last session of the day !</p>
<p>I was really surprised by the active participation of elder people in the event.. There were 70 attendees and had a good number of elder people who are interested in knowledge sharing. I hope and i wish Malayalam Wikipedia will reach more heights very soon..</p>

<p>My Usual Saturdays Starts at 10 am but today was different.. It was my Birthday.  and we had the Adobe Flex Launch Event to happen today at Hotel Woods Manor Cochin. Juwal Bose one of the co-ordinators of the event had demanded  me to bring sweeets to the event as it is my birthday. I reached the hotel at 9.30 and found many people have already arrived. some were familiar to me but most were strange faces just due to the fact that it was basiclly adobe developers in there and i&#8217;m alien to that field. As usual i was soon comfortable with this crowd too.<br />
Bridge India Outsourcing the sponsers of the event had also been arrived at the venue. Really appreciate their willingness to sponsor and support and also to attend the event throughout the day.<br />
The sessions started a little late due to a delayed flight from chennai. The event commenced as soon as Harish Sivaramakrishnan from Adobe reached the venue. Harish took the first session on New Adobe Flex.  He created a demo app of a video player without a single line of code  and also how to display a grid on a web page&#8230; quite enough for anyone to get interested in the new Flash Builder. After Harish&#8217;s session we had the morning tea.</p>
<p>After The Tea break Juwal took a sneakpeak session on few great plugins in Photoshop CS5. he showed us the video of how simple some otherwise thought to be tough jobs can be done with photoshop CS5. After that was a Session on what is new with Cold Fusion Builder by Thazleem from Toobler. Diana Kulke from Bridge India enlioghtened us about The Open Coffee initiative on april 21st 2010</p>
<p>Lunch Was Awesome and Delicious</p>
<p>After the lunch the sleepy mood was murdered by an awesome session by Vipin Chandran. His Session consisted of the Open source in Flash. it was greatly informative. second session by Juwal Bose was a sneak peak of Flash CS5.  After That We had Tea and small session on iPlotz.</p>
<p>Networking was an important job done through out the event and most of us could get many new contacts throught that. There were few give away in the form of T-Shirts and pens from Adobe(I got a Tee).</p>

<p>Mar Athanasios College For Advanced Studies (  MACFAST ) , Tiruvalla hosted the 8th Barcamp Kerala On March 28th 2010.  The Number of attendees for barcamp was lower than last time due to various factors like Hosana Sunday , the Railways Issues and also the exams&#8230;   . The Venue was exceptionally good .. MacFast Really Has a great Infrastructure .</p>
<p>The first session by Deepak on Statistical Machine Translation was awesome. It covered the Base of translation Technique in a simple<a href="http://www.ranjithkavarachan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/bck8.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-1245 alignleft" style="margin: 6px; border: 2px solid black;" title="bck8" src="http://www.ranjithkavarachan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/bck8-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a> and understandable way . It was the Best session in the Whole Barcamp Kerala 8 !!. The Mobile web by Shwetank Dixit was next. Shwetank was a representative of Opera. He talked about the technology trends and market stats of the mobile web.. and also about the latest standards in web like HTML5</p>
<p>The session about Spara was bit of an disappointment for the concept of Barcamp.  Only attraction was the presenter but she too was married.  I suggest even if you are just promoting a product try attending the barcamp in full .. coming in at 11am , taking a session immediatly and leaving as soon as it is over doesn&#8217;t sync with the Barcamp spirit.  Do Better Next Time Artin Dynamics..   and next time please don&#8217;t break  the guidelines of Barcamp Kerala <a href="http://www.barcampkerala.org/blog/about/" target="_blank"><strong><big>&#8220;Presentations promoting specific commercial products or companies  are discouraged.&#8221;</big></strong></a></p>
<p>Aravind Jose showed a video about the future of web in kerala  and his session comprised of the his forseeing of web  in kerala for next 20 months. I&#8217;m skipping the short session i took..  i know it wasnt that great !!! The “No Negative Day” by Fahad Mether sounded like a good cause by  quitting  negative things in life for one day in a month.  Really dont know how this will shape into. between .. it is observed 24th of every month.</p>
<p>Alan Haggai Alavi took a session on Perl.  He is an expert on Perl. he tried to make it as simple as possible .. Even though he gave a good idea about perl the session lacked some examples which could have made the session more interesting.</p>
<p>It was the First Time We had food being sponsored for Barcamp. Thanks to MACFAST for the Lunch. As usual it was time for more informal tech talks and interactions in the Lunch Time.</p>
<p>&#8220;How to Start up&#8221; by Adv. Ivin Gancius gave an about starting a firm and various other factors like taxation, registrations, trademarks, patents etc&#8230; As usual Kenney Came up with a social concern.. this time  &#8220;Marriages&#8221;&#8230; He talked about the evolution of various marriage systems existing and that has existed in the society. and as usual it got heated up in the due course.. it killed sleep of many attendees . .. Niju Mohan talked about his expereinces on TATA Jagriti Yatra.  He shared his experience of the journey with the photographs and videos too.</p>
<p>Reni Yohanan took a half cooked session on  Network security . The tried to discuss the various kind of threats and attacks in a network.  Social Media Recruitment by Ajith Sam John had real substance in it . He talked about the  recruitment through the social medias. The session reminded the attendees about the importance of updating ones profile in these websites and the concept of keeping the profile “clean”. Arun Basil Lal discussed about creating a website using wordpress &#8230;installation of wordpress, plugins, themes&#8230;. etc etc etc.</p>
<p>Binny VA discussed about the  eNGO Product Launch. how he plans to launch it and also about its name change to TENads &#8230;Thanks a lot to Macfast for the evening Tea.  The tea session is an oppurtunity for informal talks and discussions on various social issues and thrashing Manorama.</p>
<p>alltogether a good day at Barcamp.. !!!</p>

<p class="intro">Cochin Twestival 2010 will be held on March 25<sup>th</sup>, 2010 from 5 PM to 8 PM at Somewhere Else Cafe. Cochin Twestival is a mega tweet-up with lots of things added.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=106707076018488">RSVP for Cochin Twestival</a></h3>
<p>For those of you who don’t know what a Twestival is&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>It is a mega tweet-up with lots of things added. In short, it is a Twitter Festival. Twitter Festivals or Twestivals happen all around the globe once a year. There are basically two types of Twestivals: Twestival Global &amp; Twestival Local. Twestival Global is one day, one cause all around the world and Twestival Local takes place over a weekend where cities are encouraged to support a local cause. Both versions have international momentum, but the real power of Twestival is when everything comes together on one day, giving focus to an important cause, the cause being different every year.</p>

<p>It is about a week since Facebook revealed its new design to users world wide..   the design in a look is neat and good.. but i feel like they have made a mess up regarding few items..</p>
<p><strong> The Notifications </strong> were earlier shown on the right side portion of the bottom bar which used to be static at that place ..   it always helped to know about the notification almost instantly..  <img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1185" style="border: 0pt none; margin: 0px 6px;" title="FacebookLogo" src="http://www.ranjithkavarachan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/FacebookLogo.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="90" />in the new design they have made the notifications appear on the TOP bar which gets scrolled out along with the page this makes it a uneasy to know the notifications if the page is scrolled a little bit down .   I feel this as a real  discomfort  with notifications because of this change.</p>
<p>Some times when adding friends the add to list is not shown .. especially when someone refers a friend.. this is making it difficult for me to manage friends when you have a lot of friends..   and the process of adding an unlisted  friend to a list is cluttered now.. you have to select the list take the edit list  and browse through the friends list and add the single friend to that list.  the older way of adding a friend to a list was easier to do</p>
<p>i hope facebook will take care of these usability issues in their next FaceLift<br />

<p>The Foundation Stone Laying Ceremony of InfoPark Kochi Phase II  at <strong>kunnathunadu &amp; puthencuruz village of kunnathunadu taluk</strong> will be done by Hon. Chief Minister of Kerala Shri V.S. Achuthanandan on 28th nov 2009(saturday)  at 11.30 am.. The Functions will be held at Kochi infopark Campus at Kakkanad.</p>
<p>It sounds like a very good gesture from the part of kerala towards the Development of IT infrastructure in the state despite the backlash of the much hyped Smart City Kochi Project.  My prayers for the Project to be successful and a great milestone in Development of  the Country<br />
