Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else.

== Current News ==

I can't program anymore, unlike before, due to my 6 years old PC cannot support Xorg 7.1 for Edgy. I frequently borrowed my brother's laptop, which I use a LiveCD, but later on I was allowed to install Linux. I'm really sorry about my unmaintained softwares..

My current goal is to create 50 software for 2006. My approach is doing RAD programming with C and GTK+.

-----------------*** (Update) ***----------------------
Now I miss Ubuntu alot, I'm very inactive as of the Aug 10, 2006.
Part of making me really busy is for my college scholarship.
I still plan to do 50, 60, or heck 100 software in the future,
but as of now I think I'll just lay-low the plans, and stay
realistic and reasonable. Maybe, another 3 more in December or so..
-------------------------------------------------------

I also am a geek monk, most of the time I fast personally (not about religion), fasting gives me fresh ideas, and it gives me energy. By fasting, I learn alot of things, not only technical but nature, and somewhat spiritual. I can fill up this page of all the wonderful things fasting can do, but what it really does is, fasting clear the mind, detoxify our body, and gives me almost superhuman understanding. And I get natural euphoria feeling with it too. If anyone wants to quit smoking, I say fasting, if anyone wants to take out the hearts burden, I say fasting... And if anyone feels it's the end of everything, all I can say is fasting. My longest fast is 30 days, but it's not advisable, max is 21. I usually take two spoonfulls of honey and mix it with apple cider vinegar (or fresh lemon juice) with cold distilled water, it's all I put into my body for 21 days. Wow, this is too much information, It's like a blog. :-)

Current News

I can't program anymore, unlike before, due to my 6 years old PC cannot support Xorg 7.1 for Edgy. I frequently borrowed my brother's laptop, which I use a LiveCD, but later on I was allowed to install Linux. I'm really sorry about my unmaintained softwares..

Introduction

I love GTK+ programming, and very enthusiastic about GNOME and Linux. I like solving problems, and providing software solutions to make life in linux easy.

I love to design attractive HIG compliant GUI interfaces and make them work seemlessly. I'm obsessed with GUI attractiveness and functionality, I try to learn the designs from Mac OSX, Windows Vista, and other OS's.

Software Design & Linux Involvement

During mid college years (late 2003), I got involved as a VP-Internal on a student IT group called ite@ch. It was a blast, because my part was not VP stuff, but I'm on the technical stuff like software design, art and multimedia, the things that I enjoyed most.

And later that year, I joined a web design comptetion, and won 2nd place. By the end of the year, we got financial problems, so I wasn't able to enroll.

Being bored at home, I find a job, and worked as a Technical Consultant (Feb 2004), specializing for Linux and Open Source related technology. During those times, I was introducing Fedora Core 1, MySQL Database, GTK+ and PHP for SME and Manufacturing businesses. A part of my job is integrating their business process from different department to an ERP system. I in-house-develop their ERP, POS systems and done some migration to Fedora Core 1. Working there is a blast, It's my first work, and I really enjoyed it. Then, classes starts again, this time, I have enough money to enroll, I endo my contract without renewing and continue studying.

Then while I was studying in AMA Computer University, Makati. I worked as a Student Assistance in the IT department, where I deploy Fedora Core 2 servers (2004) to handle DHCP, Squid Proxy, tasks. And last year, the IT team and I deployed dual-boot Ubuntu 5.04 with Windows XP to 300 computers (2005).

In June 2006, I will migrate the database to Ubuntu Server, and Dapper Drake to more than 1000 computers.

As a college student, I worked on numerous thesis, software projects (for other kids, including professors). Some GTK+ based ported to Windows, some web based, some GTK+ in Fedora.

My first Linux experience was in late 1996, where I download and install a 6 floppy version of Linux called "Monkey Linux" in a BBS.

I'm a full college scholar student.
