Extreme Blue India - Bangalore Expo
It has been awhile since we finished up the Extreme Blue India Expo in Bangalore, but our team has been quite happy with the results. We submitted six patent disclosures and our project on Connecting Virtual Worlds and Real Worlds was featured in the India Times in the Economic section. I gave my first press statement and I was very happy that they quoted me in the article. I should note that the article is a bit too gracious in its credit to me. The idea for connecting the virtual world and the real world to me was originally Pankaj Zanwar’s, our mentor, and as well, due credit to the rest of the team including Debdutta Choudhuri, Harish Lakshmi, and Vikas Sonigara. I have missed working with them and our ten weeks together went by quickly.
Thanks Ben.. this was team effort and we all executed to get workable prototype of BlueSladgets.
