Warning: Some bit of self praise ahead.
Nearing the end of yet another successful year. The year 2007 has been one of the ‘longest’ year in my life. With milestones achieved and several noteworthy events in both my personal and professional life, I should say, this perhaps could not be better!
Here are some important milestones/events in the last year (in no particular order):
- Learnt car driving and also got my 4 wheeler license. This was pending for a very long time.
- Part of the organization committee of the Web 2.0 conference organized by CSI Bangalore. I also delivered a talk on Enterprise application of Web 2.0 here.
- Attended swimming classes, another thing that had been pending since a long time.
- Tried my hand at cooking (could have done better).
- Got myself an iPod Nano.
- Delivered several talks and conducted hands-on workshop in colleges mostly on Eclipse.
- A few solo bike rides including the ring-road trip (This got more traction than I had expected with casual readers noting this more than my other entries!).
- Went to a few places and clicked a lot of photos.
- Guided a successful intern project.
- Eclifox release in alphaWorks.
- A few awards, papers and recognitions.
- Several other professional achievements – which unfortunately I cannot mention here.
- Last but not the least: experimented with my hair style and got a whole bunch of comments from family and friends!
