I created this group because there are so many talented developers and designers in Melbourne, but no forum for them to meetup, collaborate and learn from each other.

The purpose of this group is to share thoughts on cutting edge tools, insights gained from experience and knowledge learned. This group is technology-agnostic. ie. It doesn't matter how you do development for mobile devices, we want to know about what you …

Starting or contributing to a world-class technology start-up in the world's most livable city, Melbourne, Australia. What exactly is a start-up, I hear you ask? Well, according to Paul Graham of the famed Y-Combinator, "essentially a startup is a new business designed for scale".

It is the vision of Sadhguru – a realized yogi and Master – to offer ‘one drop of spirituality’ to every individual. Through Isha Kriya, the possibilities of …

I know there are other female scientists out there, but we never seem to be in the same place at the same time.  Therefore, this social group for female physicists, chemists, engineers and mathemat …
