The talk was concentrated on its application on Orkut &#8211; as it is the most popular social networking site here.<\/p>\n<h3>Game Development in Ruby<\/h3>\n<p>By <a href=\"http:\/\/vysnu.com\/\">Vishnu Gopal<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This session was about creating small 2D games in Ruby using the &#8216;Gosu&#8217; library. You can get a small sample game he created for this session at <a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/p\/gosu-n3wton\/\">N3wton Google Code<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/vishnu\/simple-game-development-with-ruby\/\">Presentation<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Home Automation using Bluetooth<\/h3>\n<p>By <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leadstech.org\/\">Hari Krishnan<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Using your mobile phone as an universal remote for all applications within your home.<\/p>\n<h3>Asterisk<\/h3>\n<p>By Bipin<\/p>\n<p>Asterisk is a Open Source software PBX(Private branch exchange)<\/p>\n<h3>QT<\/h3>\n<p>By Dhaneesh and Dev<\/p>\n<p>Using QT Designer to create GUI applications.<\/p>\n<h3>Computer Memory Based on Bacteriorhodopsin<\/h3>\n<p>By Jidhu<\/p>\n<p>A new way of storing information &#8211; by changing the state of a protein. This is done by shining a different colour light on the protein. It is much faster and cheaper than the fastest RAMs available today. Also, it is non-volatile &#8211; so it can be as both the HardDisk and as the RAM. I found this the most interesting of all session.<\/p>\n<h3>Open Network Project<\/h3>\n<p>By <a href=\"http:\/\/www.angelsvista.com\/\">Linoy Joseph<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A implementation of a mesh style open network.<\/p>\n<h3>Android<\/h3>\n<p>by Renjith Ramachandran<\/p>\n<p>Developing mobile application using the Android SDK provided by Google.
