God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change,the courage to change the things i can and the wisdom to know the difference between.

Ebot starts to rant again

Well, I don’t know where to start. It’s been about 6 months since my last blog post. I know I have been lazy but you can’t blame me. My environment has changed completely: from a quiet stable life around people who think like me to a dumpster called school with both pleasant and unpleasant people. Just before I moved to this shithole, I dumped PHP for a romantic relationship with functional programming (LISP). I was amazed by the power I was given as programmer, I could rewrite almost every local method in several ways. All the recursion, “CONSing”, and “applicative operators” made me feel smart.

Google Chrome

Whoof!!! Its been ages since I last posted a blog entry. Well, all I needed was the King of the Web(GOOGLE) to poke me back to blogging ways. Yes, that means I want to write about Chrome(the google browser project). For starters, trusting one person(a company in this case) with my emails(Gmail), search and now browser experience(Chrome), makes me a bit weary(But worry not the MIGHTY GOOGLE IS IN CHARGE).

MIT Open Course Ware

Recently I have been going through some video lectures from the MIT Open Course Ware, specifically videos on the Structure and Implementation of Computer Programs, an introductory course for students studying Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. MIT is one of the best universities in the world, and one can get all the necessary material(full lectures, notes and exercises) to support their studies in any course offered by MIT for free.

In Cameroon these days, anybody who is always on the internet is not associated with 'geekology' but immediately tagged a SCAMMER(people who perform scams on the internet). This new internet 'business' called 'Scamming' has got everybody excited and no one is concentrating on the what the internet truly brings, "globalization". With the internet bursting in Cameroon, we should see more nerds and geeks not 'Scammers'. The internet should be the a new platform for business in Africa, which is a large market not yet harnessed.
