Reached Bangalore last night. After a hectic day, just took sometime to post a blog. The city is the same as that i saw couple of years back. Nothing seems to have changed. I have been in blore couple of time before but never as a permanent fixture. I usually came for a day or two, this time it will be for a year or two.. I only hope things go well.. getting a cell no. is my number one priority..
Yeap.. Yeap... This is my last day in pune. I am counting hours for my departure from pune city. I am getting transferred to Pune and I will join IBM Bangalore the coming Monday (26th Feb). I've had a love hate relationship with pune. I loved the climate here and my housing society where I stayed (it was so damn peaceful there). I hated the traffic here, the dust pollution the roads and some people who where so freaking insensitive about the cleanliness factor in the roads. Talking about traffic I hear it is much worse in blore and for me if pune is bad I don't even wanna think about blore now. I will worry about that when i start commuting to office. Got lots of work today and this week has been hectic for me and, surrendering the landline, talking to the house owner, interacting with the movers and packers guy. And to top it all our office work just increased big time, i have a deadline next week and i need to complete a major portion of the code by March 2nd. Oh man the next couple of weeks are going to be maaad. On Idevnet, me and mike have shortlisted a design from www.openwebdesign.org. Mike is having some hosting changes done, he is kinda leaning towards asp.net plan. If it works out we will doing the site Asp.Net otherwise we will move to back to php. In the meanwhile i need to get my php and asp.net skills sharpened to get the flow of the site development. Well people i need to go out for lunch, the friends have been asking for a treat and today we are going out for a small lunch. Once that is done need to sort out some minor stuff in office like surrendering desk keys and stuff and then i am done. I just need 10:30 to come, so that i can fly to the comforts of my home. Of course the madness will start again next week.. but that's a different story.. for a different time... Signing off for now, be good and do good :).
I just reinstalled windows live writer. I am way too lazy to open up my browser and login to blogger and click a series of buttons and type my rant. So I installed writer to help me being lazy ;-). Just came from a coffee break, feeling refreshed now. The manager said he will confirm my transfer details today. Hopefully it shouldn't take longer than a week. In other updates, I plan to completely rewrite my Bill Tracking application that I wrote for my BIL's company. They needed some new features and I had to change my database design for that. I thought if I am going to change the database design why not change the code base and make it more OOP. I wrote the previous application in VB.net and the new version I am gonad do it in C#. Its time I seriously started learning C#, I mean with the current application its gonna be a relative easy since half of the code is gonna be database oriented and some of it are already there in another db related application I wrote. The main difficulty or the main rewrite comes in the form UI. I have planned some radical changes to the UI. I was drawing up some mockups in the free time I got today morning while traveling the bus. Couple of screens are left though, but gonna start with the base screen first and then proceed with it. Ok gotta go now, got some official work to do ;-). Till I meet you bee gooood and dooo gooooood :)
Its really long time since i posted anything in my blog. I have been busy with one thing or the another. The work at office has been really hectic partially because of the new Java mod that i was asked to write. My java knowledge is not much which in turn increased the load on me. Anyways i have completed it to the best of my knowledge. Now its upto Dhruv or me to take it up later sometime. I have been asked to finish some VB (Yuppppieeeee !! :D) tasks before i touch anything else. Anyways, i have some more news that needs to be posted but i am lacking time. Will post it once i get some free time. Till then be good and do good :)
