The spread of Information Technology has introduced a number of challenges as well as opportunities into the Kerala society. Kerala needs to empower its citizens and make digital literacy universal to enable them to utilize the opportunities and manage the challenges. Nevertheless IT penetration is not optimal in a state with such a favorable scenario for IT penetration as it faces a number of challenges. The Government of Kerala has taken a number of steps to address them and they seem to have begun bearing fruit.

Zyxware recently conducted a session on GIMP for dentists. The workshop was conducted on the 17th of December, 2012. This was as part of a workshop organised by Indian Dental Association for their members on photography and photo editing. Zyxware conducted a 4 hour session on photo editing using GIMP, a Free Software Tool. Photography and photo editing are important skills for the modern day dentist given the requirements of documentation and research and communication with patients. Recognising the need for training for dentists in these areas, the IDA has taken an important step by organising this workshop. That they have chosen Free Software Tools like GIMP is commendable.
