नमस्ते
Accompanied by the typical Sunday laziness, I came out of my place to have a casual walk looking at the few tea stalls and pani puri centres which were lightened up with the emergency lanterns. My eyes were looking at few people who were sharing news about the new happenings in their life and few of them waiting for their family members to join them in a park. Few shops doing business like they usually do. Folks, generally, address such phase of life as stagnant and the routine. Taking a step further on the pavement I just realized the importance of having community friends all across the globe who does the stuffs similar to what we do but in a different fashion, in a different way. The way they interact, the way they present and the way they accomplish it’s all different! These differences are obvious due to diversity in their culture. Due to this there was a need to establish a lingua franca to ease the communication amongst the people who belongs to different places! The language could be the plain English language or C#.NET! Yes really :)
The need and craving of the people to know each other all across the globe gave the rise to community websites. I remember the time when orkut gained its popularity amongst the net surfers because they could find their friends whom they have not met since a very long period. They can join the community which they were already part of in their past. They can see what their friends are doing now-a-days. They can see the pictures of their recent birthday party and everything else which a friend may want to share. All these information became very handy and could be reached at a mouse click!
The community website has also become a means of business development for some industry. It’s really a no surprise if the marketing team spends their entire life on facebook, orkut, myspace, twitter, linkedin and other community websites. It became very easy and economical for the companies to setup their team to do the market research and analyze the market trends using these websites. These website also provides a range of software applications that automates the analysis and brings up the information to its users or the business partners. The real world example could be a simple website showing the number of users visited it till date. The marketing team may want to show the region specific advertisements based on the location of the user currently logged in the website. It can also be parameterized by the interest of the user, his age, his profession, his wishlist, etc. The list may go endless.
Technology industry, being a very close to internet, have made the most out of these websites. Isn’t it fascinating to send the message to millions of users about your new product release within a second? It is more effective than printing the pamphlets and circulating across all the shops, shopping malls, theatres, traffic signals, etc. Really amazing and quick!
Codes & Notes is neither of the above. It is not as great as MSDN or any other open source project hosting website. It is just a mirror of an average mind who aspires to explore all the horizons. The technical concepts to put here might be limited but the thoughts are unlimited. It surpasses any machine or a robot that are pre-programmed, in a sense; they know what to do next and how to do it. It is probably that they cannot innovate or cannot learn from their experiences and convey it effectively to make a better tomorrow. This is probably the only reason why humans are said to be “grownup” whereas others are “built”. Respecting this attribute of the humans, I promise to bring up the new solutions on the table and eventually on a whiteboard to satisfy the craving to learn something. There is literally no full stop to this space and hope it grows very rapidly.
That’s all for now we'll be right back at the same location and same space. Till then have a great time. Adiós
