CEMS Gala Dance 2010

It has been my tradition to describe major CEMS socializing events of the semester. The spring semester 2010 should not be any exception. Although I am not student anymore...sadly for me...I stil enjoy attending these events. CEMS Gala Dance was organized by CEMS Club Prague already in April but as I was going through my posts and pictures tonight I realized that evidence of this event has been missing on my blog....so here it is :-). Cool stylish evening with buffet, drinks and dancing lessons, nice meetup of cemsies on top of that of course.

Barcamps...an interesting meeting hub of internet, social media, startup fans and geeks

Hi, after attending the second barcamp with my boyfriend, I decided to post something about those events on my blog because it has been always a very interesting and enriching experience. In January 2010, we were on the first barcamp in CZ which was organized in Vsetin by local entrepreneurs and internet fans. It was a great meeting of interesting people and I really enjoyed the whole weekend of presentations and talks. I was in particular astonished by the high ratio of people having Macs and iPhones. I learned about a lot of interesting websites, intiatives, projects and after coming back from this weekend, I have established my twitter account as well (@olinkany). After-party in Vsetin was really nice as well :-).
 My second barcamp experience was last weekend in Vienna where we went with Lukáš to try out an international barcamp. Everything was in German which again refreshed my vocabulary and speaking a bit and we attended just few sessions about coworking, social media usage and own branding, fashion on internet and web-analytics. It was again Apple paradise, the only difference was, people were also using iPads there :-). Since the weather was nice, we also enjoyed some sightseeing in Vienna City Center. I love this City, not as much as Prague, but similarly :-) ... because it brought me a lot of nice memories during the semester I spent there in winter 2007/2008.
