The feedback was very good, and I was glad that everybody liked it. Jordev is really moving ahead, and I am very excited being part of it 🙂

Below is the slide show (it’s an enhanced version from my previous one):

Track your financial status

Tue, 29 Jul 2008 15:25:55 +0000

Lately, I have been living a financial chaos; I couldn’t tell how much money I had in the bank, lent to friends or in my Pocket! (ok the last one was exaggeration…I could count it anytime :P).

I decided to put an end to this, so I started looking for a software to track my financial status; went through many solutions starting from Excell sheets passing by GNUCash, AceMoneyLite , and ending with Microsoft Office Accounting Express (the latter makes me want to start my own business! wow).
Nothing seemed to meet my simple requirements of …just…tracking my money!

My “Introduction to NHibernate” presentation and slides

Wed, 02 Jul 2008 16:34:04 +0000

I have delivered the presentation I talked about in my previous post here.

Actually it was pretty simple and straightforward, the slides them selves don’t have code content; all the code was shown in VS directly (I always found it better to see the code in its really environment to better understand).
The attendees were handful, but if felt really great when they expressed how excited they were about the whole thing.

What is next

Ok, now I am facing a hard decision; what to do next in my technical life?

In order to reach for better decision, I drew a mind map using this wonderful online tool Mindomo, it’s like the following:

Those nodes are the things I think I want to study/do most.
I marked the most important ones with the red, yellow and then blue flags. Then marked the ones I need to do most urgently with 1 being the most urgent, 2 less urgent and so on.
