About

BotHack introduces you to the latest in the world of technology and informs you on the latest happenings. BotHack can help imporve your productivity level. The main idea behind BotHack is to construct one such portal to help the millions in search of knowledge. Bothack introduces to ideas, tricks, tutorials and tips in variopus fields ranging from robotics to cooking.

BotHack also brings you upto date on the current trends in technology and gizmos. The most interesting aspect of BotHack is the DO-It-Yourselves (DIY) and the How-Tos. These sections deal with mini projects you could tryout during your weekends. Most of them being cheap and useful in daily life.

How is this site different from its previous version?

We at BotHack have introduced a new segment called the ‘FESTS’, where we list in the important cultural and technical fest along with various competitions happening in India (As of now this segment will concentrate on Indian fests alone)

‘Monthly Polls'(MPs) is another feature we have introduced to get to know our readers a bit more. What you think is very important to us and the MPs will just be the right tool to get to know you people.

‘Readers Queries'(RQs) is another user centric feature that we are developing where we answer your technological related questions. Please send in your Queries to bothack@gmail.com
Also BotHack has become more user friendly and less clustered and more organised. Lots of features are being planned in the near future. You can help us with your suggestions.

If you’d like to contact BotHack with suggestions, comments, fests or product announcements, you can email us at bothack@gmail.com.

Hi all, As promised we couldn’t hold the meeting over last weekend owing to tied up schedules and personal commitments for most of us and also the fact that this was the first weekend that we lay off after working constantly for the last 6 Sundays for the Blog Camp. All of us needed the break. But the developments happening cannot wait so let me post what this entire project of the tie up between The Knowledge Foundation and N-Logue is all about.
N- Logue project is run by the TeNet Goup in IIT Madras under Dr. Ashok Jhujhunwalla. The project is managed by Mr. Falguni, Ms. Saloni and Ms. Aarthi from TeNet.
About
The Project is about empowering the rural India to create digital content showcasing our native culture heritage and age old history and to preserve tradition of the people.
N-logue is also about bridging the digital divide and about creating an awareness among rural masses to take to blogging to make their voices heard across India.
N-Logue aims to showcase our expertise and craftsmen from rural India to the world and thereby create a source of commercial interest for such underprivileged masses. It is about providing recognition to such hidden talent and to ensure that relevant organizations take preventive and protective measures to preserve such talent pool from extinction.
Outline
N-logue aims to create a lot of kiosks (nodal points) across all villages in India. These kiosks will basically be connected to the Internet and will be equipped with connectivity and system with a web cam and camera. These kiosk will typically be manned by an operator who will act as the news aggregator of that village. Apart from running the kiosks these operators (KO) will also be news generator for the village.
How
We should find an active kiosk who has a reasonably smart (class XII graduate) person who has a flavor of writing. We would like her / him to prepare a story about his / her village every day (25 days a month) and post it to us (we will edit and put it on our site). The story could be on anything: news from village, interview of a person, about different people (profiling), about agriculture in village, school, water, disease and health care, crafts and skills, about shops, about government officers in village, politics in village, culture, festivals, about reaction to films and TV shows in village, electricity, lighting, roads, any other thing. We expect the person to generate 4 to 5 page story and have one photograph associated with the article.
This will be TeNeT sponsored work.
The role of The Knowledge Foundation
The Knowledge Foundation will work along with TeNet on the N-Logue Project using our team in educating the pilot group of 5 villages and their KO’s on the how to blog, We will form a team that will set the platform and the site where we can do this entire activity on a separate domain.
Ideas
1.We define areas in which stories can be sent
2. To begin with we also give a pool of ideas that they should write on – as we move on they can add their own topics.
3. The 5 KOs could probably start a group blog – which is easy to use and maintain in both English and Tamil. Also they can easily add photo’s and audio/ video files to the blog.
4. We can make sure some of us read these stories and comment on a regular basis to keep these people motivated.
5. A one day basic training on how to blog can be provided to these KOs. This one day training can be provided hands on at site on the village itself. (Volunteers Please let us know..)
6. Subsequent training, assistance or interaction can be provided by using the bandwidth and connectivity that TeNet has with all these villages as a separate dedicated network which can be used to do live Video casting too..
7. A lot of support would be required from readers to encourage these people, that means a lot of need to blog about it – though money would be a major motivating factor, I think the recognition will also play an important role.
Points to be kept in mind during the entire hand holding process will be …
a. We should also look at what data would be attractive to marketers and involves creativity .. for example … tracking aspiration levels with different age groups can give insights into popular brands and their positioning ..
b. Focus will be also towards descriptive accounts of popular events would help identify the best times and place to run marketing campaigns.
c.One more topic we should encourage is movies – since it is a very popular form down south.
We invite more ideas as of now from our Bloggers Group Pls write to us…
For an initial hands on couple of us are planning to go to the village this weekend to conduct feasibility study and to do a Blog of one day in the life at the village. Interested people pls get in touch immediately as we need to book the tickets for the trip. We leave on Friday night reach there in the morning spend the entire day with the villagers (Bring your gadgets guys) record events, maybe try to blog, photoblog, videocast right from there to evaluate bandwidth and other issues and start back to chennai on saturday night so that we are back on sunday morning at chennai.
I feel this will be more meaningful side to our entire blogging community and look forward to an interesting and soul filling experience.
Work to do
1. First we need to set up The Knowledge Foundation Web site up and running and a blog installed so that all this can go there.
2. Next we need to design a very basic blog where we can bring all these content and start activity for all these villages
3. We need the techies to generate absolutely simple training material so that its easy to start all these KO’s on blogging.
Whoever wants to pitch in please let us know before 20th. evening so that we could do the relevant arrangements. We want to restrict the group to minimum bcos its initial fact finding trip only and regional blogger’s are the need of the hour.!

Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found
a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell
to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it
pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this
is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!

A neutron walks into a bar and orders a drink and asks the bartender how much.

She gazed beautiful in the daylight, however at night I do believe she a whole lot
more so. He’s on (or over) the edge, bordering on rude and doesn’t seem
to give a damn about anyone but himself – what exactly do women see
in a guy like that.
