I saw this on the news this morning and at first i thought this guys are some sort terrorist.. I was surprised to find out that these guys are actually "Real-Life Super Heroes" living in my area. Interesting.

I love being busy. I do.

I love working and building applications. I love making sure that what I build is a high quality application that has the 'Wow' factor stamped all over it. I guess it's just my nature to enjoy work and build stuff.

I love building stuff. I do.

Being busy makes me feel productive. Pressure makes me better and seeing my users smile at the end of the project motivates me to do my best job everytime. Thinking of my family and our future keeps me moving. It does. It really does.

I've been busy this past few weeks (i think it's almost a month and half know) with so much stuff going on at work doing UAT and production launch in a big ASP.NET dashboard application that I have been building in the past few months and I haven't had the change to post anything useful since early February because of these work related things.

None. Zip. Nada.

Anyway, that should change soon since my schedule would be a little bit more relax in the next few weeks other than a week I need to spend with some Cognos guys to show them our data and help them mine it. Oh well! I'll post something code related tonight. Promise!

I'll keep you posted for sure! Later!

Microsoft Philippines is conducting an event for developers called "Defy All Challenges: The .NET Developer Roadshow" on March 26, 2008 at SM Megamall Cinema 4, Ortigas Center, Mandaluyong City, Philippines. I think this is going to be a great event! I've already talked to few developers and they are definetely excited although some raise concerns about the cost of the event (P500).

Paolo Tioseco, a Technology Specialist for Microsoft Philippines asked me to post the event details at DevPinoy.org and I've decided to create my own banner based on their original poster.

Oh! and I have a small one too!

Tech is fun!

My wife and I went to the Heroes Happen {here} event in Los Angeles, CA last month and boy, it was a blast! The event was a fullhouse with hundreds of developers and IT professionals attending this big day. My wife took some photos of me at the event during idle time and this is what came up.

My wife told me to take a picture of this banner and put the DevPinoy logo to it and right there and then I caught a vision. }

We had fun that day. I'm really thankful that my wife is a techie like me because we can go to the same conference and enjoy the same technology. I saw Woody at the event and as always he is a cool guy. Hmmm.. I wonder if all MS Developer Evangelist are like him. Hehehe!

The next launch event that we are going to attend is the San Diego launch event which is happening sometime around May. Yipee!

Yup! Me and my wife are coming to the VS 2008 Kickoff event in Los Angeles today. Wohoo! This is the first time we'll see Bill Gates live in person and we are excited about it.

Wohoo!

I'll post some pictures here tommorow to show you guys what transpired at the Nokia Theatre and Los Angeles Convention Center.

See yah at the event!
