Yahoo Mobile Developer Award 2009 Kick of Briefing

Last Saturday (4th April 2009), I attended Yahoo Mobile Developer Award 2009 (YMDA 2009) Kick of Briefing at X2 Club Plaza Senayan Jakarta Selatan. The most important agenda for that day is announcement of who will be sponsor company for the event. The sponsor are 5 big company in Indonesia like, Yamaha Motor, XL, BNI, Viva News and Code Jawa. Different with previously informed, there are 5 sponsors and not 6 sponsors. However there still a lot of challenge to built application that conform with sponsor requirement. Those 5 sponsor is randomly assigned adequately to total of about 70 participants. So, about 12 to 13 teams will built application to each sponsor. Actually if we see from quantity, the competion is likely easy. Moreover if we can provide good application. The path to winning is really clear for such readyness.

Individually, I got Code Jawa as sponsor. Code Jawa itself claim, it is largest content provider company in Indonesia. Their claim seems right if we see slot of advertisement of their product in television. Not many of us know Code Jawa. But I believe most of us know Mama Lauren, Chat n Date, SMS celebrities, which are products from Code Jawa. Even though Code Jawa is not as bonafide as Yamaha, BNI or XL, or even Viva, Code Jawa provide very flexible requirements for the application needed to build. I just hope can manage 3 weeks time provided to finish application with well. Someway too, I really hope can increase possibility to grab total of 20,000 USD from to event.

Happy compete, for all of the team. See you at final.
