A day with community ...

Once upon a time, I was organizing and speaking in the meetups ( Bengaluru Insights & Data) along with my great friends. Come across many challenges including identifying right speaker and pulling the techies to the meetup. Albeit, we have conducted 12 meetups in a year, and shut down due to the dissolving of team because few moved to other cities. 

Today I attended the Software Architects Meetup which was full house, on time, and speakers are super amazing.

Love to share with you all that the inspiring and thumbs moment in the

“A day with community …”

• All the speakers are awesome, esp the “Let Waste = Null” architect to eliminate waste by Sudeep Prasad. Thanks and it is fantastic. For me this talk is without a minute waste; a full of informative. Looking forward for more sessions in down the line. He introduced me a book called Building Insanely Great Products by David Fradin,, ordered and waiting to have a read so i can adopt in our current flagship product #MLens by Knowledge Lens.
• Then the quiz after lunch was super fun, and thrilling but i lost the podium. One interesting question is how many letters are in “Alphabets”, yes like maximum i answered 26 but it is 9. Yep, got the same smile on the file.. And felt ohhhh…..
• Gift to speakers are unique like by giving plant to them, but it is super unique by gifting book called  “Atomic Habits by James Clear”. Thanks much for introducing the book. 
• They are in 8th year in a row now, great going with approx of 5k
• Made the absolute purpose of meetup is to connect and collaborate, the team emphasized in the every step of journey today, for an example by providing break after every session.
• But definitely, I have to quote the intro from each of us; they have asked about name and a favorite movie & why. Mind blowing lists including “Life is Beautiful” (yes, my favorite movie), Forrest Gump, Inception, Titanic, and many more
• Super kudos and greatly appreciated all for their time and uber cool talk by speakers Venkata Ravi Kumar A, Sudeep Prasad, Mithun Shanbhag, Sayee Vignesh
• Sayee Vignesh, a 1 first timer of public speech on his journey towards micro services, but he delivered with amaze. 
• And the logistics like mic, speaker, tools like meetuplog.com, Kahoot, meetup.com are amazingly leveraged. 
• Must moment happened when the lunch bell tuned, yes lunch served are mini idlis; was simple and purposeful.
• And, love to thank you all community members, Software Architect Meetup Organizer Team, Devon Security Team, and to my friend Ganesh Samarthyam who introduced me to this team
• This is my first visit to Software Architects Meetup, down the line I will speak and volunteer to create more impact in the journey of software architect meetup group.  

Happy weekend, see you all next community day. Thumbs up. Kudos with super smile to Software Architects Bangalore Meetup Anand Gothe & Team
