The Adequate Knowledge

by Adam Babekir Mohamed

According to Virginia Gildersleeve “The ability to think straight, some knowledge of the past, some vision of the future, some urge to fit that service into the well-being of the community- these are the most vital things that education must try to produce”

Sharing your knowledge with others is one step on the path of your contribution to the development of your community, so contribute to community development through your information and experience in your specialty.

Barcamp: A fast approaching event.

By Biruh Misganaw 

It was last year September 2010 that I got the chance to participate in BarCamp event. For me it was a whole new experience. Likely I was involved from the very beginning. We were going to companies to ask for sponsorship. At the time many people were not aware of BarCamp. Some people were asking if we are going to open a bar, others were not comfortable to sponsor us since we don’t have specific speakers, some others didn’t like the fact that the speaker (session presenter) could be any one and not necessary a high profile person……and much more. And these all thing was not a new thing for me.
