The 3rd Mumbai Barcamp this past Saturday at the IIT Mumbai campus was a great experience for me. Though the event started a bit slow, it was great to meet like-minded tech-enthusiasts and discuss topics ranging from blogging, mobile, saas, startups, social networking etc. Its cool that the interest has shifted from ‘how do we start a new BPO or outsourcing company” to “how do I make the next killer app”.My brief presentation on DeskAway and Building, Scaling & Marketing a Software As A Service can be viewed here: DeskAway Presentation at Barcamp Mumbai (29th March, 2008)

Do you have projects that are completed but are taking up your limit on your paid plan? Now, simply edit your completed project and archive it - its as good as locking it (or making it read-only). You will not be able to add/edit/delete anything from the project and it will not count towards your ‘active’ projects in your paid plan. Archived projects can be un-archived at anytime by editing the project. Additionally, none of the stuff (overdue tasks, issues etc.) will show up on the main dashboard.

Why is this useful?
- Cost-effective - you do not pay for archived projects. Only pay for ongoing projects.
- Better Organizing - Easily distinguish between ongoing, completed and archived projects.
- Knowledge Repository - Since you can have unlimited archived projects, it serves as a knowledge repository of all your old projects that can be searched.
