আর মাত্র কয়েক ঘন্টা, তারপর একজনের সাথে দেখা হবে…

May 29th, 2009

এই সেই একজন যার কথা আগে কোথাও বলিনি, কেন বলিনি ঠিক জানিনা, বলার মত কিছু ছিল বলেও মনে হয়না। যদিও ওর কাজ নিয়ে  ব্লগ লিখছি কিন্তু মুখ ফুটে কখন বলিনি এই মেয়েটিকে কত ভালোবাসি। ৫ বছর আগের কথা, দেশে এসেছিলো কানাডা থেকে। কি এক ওজানা কারনে ভাল লেগে গেল।বলে ফেললাম [কি বলেছিলাম না হয় নাই বললাম..হে হে] ….এইতো হয়ে গেল। তারপর ও চলে গেল কানাডায় আর আমি পড়াশুনা আর কাজ চালিয়ে যেতে লাগলাম…

সেইথেকে, সবসময় যোগাযোগ ছিল….আর যোগাযোগের মাধ্যম ছিল স্কাইপ, এমএসএন…এইভাবে ৫ টি বছর কেটে গেল! তাই আমার মনে হয় প্রিয়জন কাছে না থাকার যন্ত্রনা আমার চেয়ে কেউ ভাল বলতে পারবেনা। যাইহোক, সেই কষ্টের কথা বলার জন্য আজ লিখছিনা…

কাল ভোর ৬ টায় ও ঢাকায় পৌছবে! এ এমন একটা মুহুর্ত যেটা ঠিক বুজাতে পারবোনা। ওকে রিসিভ করার জন্য আমি ভোর ৫ টায় জিয়া ইন্টঃ এয়ারপোর্ট চলে যাব…একটা নিস্তবদতা পেয়ে বসছে নিজের ওজান্তেই

আর মাত্র কয়েক ঘন্টা, তারপর ওর সাথে আমার দেখা হবে…

Quiz Monster is Really a Monster for Your Facebook Homepage!

May 23rd, 2009

We don’t believe in what our horoscope says, but still want to have a look at our daily horoscope. We don’t believe in astrologist, but still when someone wants to see our palm and tell us the future, we don’t mind eh?

We always have this curiosity to know about ourselves, things that yet to come are mostly make us curious. Some examples are…

  • When will you get married?
  • What’s your actual age?
  • What is first letter of the person you will marry?
  • What does your birthday say about you?
  • How many kids will you have?

Ah, ok i’m stopping….. but, do all these make you annoyed? Aren’t these questions  like your horoscope that you don’t believe but you don’t mind to check it out?

Well, these are the facts why “Quiz Monster” is so popular now. I was hiding all these applications since redesigned facebook launched and lately, I have realized that I can’t actually stop these news feed by hiding one or few applications. Why ? Because this application allows you to create another quiz application! with another freaking question! So, that means I have to wait until my friends decide “ok we have had enough“. And till then I have to face this monster on my home stream.

But hey, Quiz Monster played really well with us. We cant blame it directly right. It’s our friends who are creating another quiz application to check out his/her next curiosity. Got to say well done Quiz Monster!

Presenting “Developing Facebook Application” at PHPExperts Semianr 2009

May 17th, 2009

Today, I was really honored to present “how to develop facebook application” at PHPExperts Semianr 2009. Indeed, that was a great experience for me to be in front of bunch of talent guys from whole Bangladesh. Though, it was not possible to show all important points/notes/stories by one presentation at a time, so my target audience were those who were willing to start developing facebook application and my aim was to make it as simple as possible, so that they can start…..

I dont know how successful I was for this…but I will be really happy if I see people are getting interest about developing facebook application.

Personally, I’m very much thrilled after this seminar, because I met lots of people I know from twitter, friendfeed or facebook. Now, i’m pretty sure we have this natural bonding between us. I would like to thank everybody whom I met or who enjoyed my presentation. Your suggestions are always welcome to me. If I ever get any chance again in any other seminar, I will try to talk about advance facebook application developing.

Thanks to all PHPExperts!

Twitter Desktop Client War Between TweetDeck and Seesmic!

May 4th, 2009

I have just played with Seesmic new twitter desktop client. Though i have been using TweetDeck for last couple of months. Just wanted to try out the new twitter desktop client as there is a huge buzz about it on twitter and friendfeed. So, what’s so difference between TweetDeck and Seesmic? Well, everything is almost same just facebook integration on new Seesmic desktop client simply rocks. But wait, you gotta call Seesmic a clever jack! Why? Because they just used the new “Open Stream API” and “Facebook for Adobe AIR” very smartly. Facebook Open Stream API was just released a few days ago.I just think if TweetDeck’s last release was little bit delayed it would be great for them. Because then, they would include all these stuffs that Seesmic added. I’m pretty sure now TweetDeck will move it’s ass really fast to get all these new facebook api features enabled in their stomach. And well, facebook made a great move allowing developers to access users’ home stream. Seesmic is the latest result of that move and we gotta wait to see more applications based on this new API. By the way, I’m enjoying Seesmic client for now, let’s have a look at some screenshots.


and well, I guess war is just begun. I asked TweetDeck on twitter to know if they are gonna add new Seesmic’s features in their next version. and they said there will be “big differences in the next version, we have different path“. Smart answer Tweetdeck!

I’m sure next version of TweetDeck is gonna be exciting. What do you think?

There is Something Wrong, But…

Google Reader Unread...

Google Reader Unread...

…good thing is, I know what it is.

My Google reader usually don’t miss me that much. At most 3/4 days? And then I read my all favorite bloggers posts on my Google reader. And my blog? I guess, on an average I post one blog per week.

BUT, it’s been more than a month I haven’t even opened my Google reader, blogging really less and it remind me when people ask me why I have no new post. And then I make plan to write something on new Facebook API, maybe more something about Friendfeed and twitter, or how facebook is making mistake fighting with twitter? Or maybe what i’m enjoying from learning python? Well, I know there are lots of things I can write about. There are lots of arguments I can make. Lots of things to talk about….

at the same time, I have learned from my little experience that “don’t write, when your life in pain“. I don’t know if I used the right word, this is something personal. Yes, I have been in a personal issue (i’m not calling it a problem). I know, I never been opened with my personal stuff on any where on the web but like, this is something that keeping me away from all “daily extra activities” . Though im still active on twitter and friendfeed!

And, I’m promising to everybody that soon, I will be open with the issue….i hope this will make me more open and fair to everybody.

p.s: this is nothing related to my work, i’m happily working with my friends :)
