It was on the 27th of June, this year, in Swaziland, venue at one of the most beautiful places in Southern Africa that is House on Fire.

I am going to be writing mostly about how did i find the first Barcamp Swaziland, and the things I liked about the whole workshop. Although i was the youngest (20yrs) at the barcamp but i won't deny that I enjoyed it to the core.

First and foremost I'd like to congratulate you guys for bringing us something great and beneficial for the youth of Swaziland.The whole workshop was interesting, very educative, very live and clear, well organised, a super venue, good music and food (he he he yeah, how can i miss that 1), had open and very kind members, non-boring views and points and last very beautiful and good equipment, and thanx for the handouts!

All this listed above were the part of the experience I felt during that camp, but next time i would like to see more time added on our sessions -the 15 minutes wasn't enough for me, and the topics to discuss (e.g. Programming, Facebook, networking topics, etc) were too many at a time, like they were 5 at 15 to 30 time to discuss. Out of all 5 I would attend 2 leaving the other 1 stil processing, which I find it difficult. What i would love here is to pick 1 or 2 topic like programming and do it in 20 minutes, ask questions, add points and etc, then the next topic.... I dont know what you think.

Overall, I enjoyed being involved in such a event. I met a lot of outgoing, free and friendly guys there. Some of them even promise to work with me in the future, like helping me because I'm still new in the field of IT and a lot more. We even made suggestions and gave possitive ideas about improving the structure or the shape of IT in Swaziland as it's still new and not highly considered yet the community need it, the youth seriously need it, to be more specific.

I would like to see Barcamp Swaziland coming back to our shores with more energy. From the day i saw BCSWAZILAND on my newspaper I knew i would love it.

Thanx barcamp, for bringing us the future of IT in Swaziland.

Thanx again for especialy You (the reader of this Article), for reading all my words.

God blesssss!!!
