| I'm a BIG |
 |
fan, i extremely love Google technologies, |
the main point for this is that the folks there think different in a very dynamic challenging environment, and go more far than u can imagine, they really surprise me always, their solutions don't take ages to apply to the real world and the big trick is they do their magic using very simple, light, advanced, genius, innovated, FREE ways..

On the contrary i'm very ( Anti- ), there's just 2 things i love about M$FT, which is their Strong Marketing Channels & Software Interface Design!
Micro$oft was the target for every developer on the planet, but now, they r conquered successfully in every technology field other than Windows, Office and Server products.. or the areas where they only should be from the beginning..
Micro$oft now exists in the technology market NOT for the technology itself but for $$$.. if u don't believe me, give a look @ their differerent software and updates.. they r playing..

I'm also tracking Web 2.0 technologies very hard, because i believe it's the dawn of the new internet..
Although there're rumers telling that Web 2.0 has no future in internet development process, i strongly disagree with all of them, because they can't be true while giant companies like Google r investing billions on applying Web 2.0 technologies in their products.. |

Who Am I?
| |
| Name |
: Mostafa Sobhi Amin |
| Location |
: Cairo, Egypt |
| Gender |
: Male |
| Education |
: B.Sc. Commerce - Major Accounting |
| Languages |
: I'm Fluent @ Arabic - English [speak - read - write] |
| |
|
|
 |
I'm a faculty of commerce graduate, but unfortunately, i'm not proud of that at all!
somehow, i consider my college as a compulsory period, or as a prison.. |
|
After graduation i felt that i'm not adequate to work as an accountant, obeying strict rules somewhere that says NO to creation trends and NEVER use ur talent!
i told myself why start as a mini-bug and never advance even in 100 years!!, while i can begin from a little below from the top.. feeling myself, feeling my mind, advance in a daily-basis.. |
|
I didn't think too much because after a continuous series of failures in finding the right job, i decided to quit the commerce world forever and go professionally towards internet programming.. |
|
I went very hard with a very big steps towards the new field.. and i finally found myself in something useful.. |
|
The pretty thing here is that i can work anytime, anywhere.. just with a computer connected to the internet.. and my mind ofcourse ;)! |
