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!

There is Something Wrong, But…

May 3rd, 2009
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 :)

An Excellent Day and A Guilty…

April 15th, 2009

Today was bangla new year (1416), and at least for this day I don’t stay at home. Last year I was in my hometown sylhet. I wrote a blog on last year’s experience though it was mostly about my bald head fun :) This year I stayed here in dhaka and went out with friends. Place was banani, where a new year fair was organized by AIUB. My friend had  “Rgb Unmad” stall so we all were chilling there. Intension? Well, of course all beautiful girls with sharees ;)

Anyways, this is one of our best cultures that brings all Bangladeshis together. Probably, this is why I like “pohela boishakh” or Bangla new year so much. I was glad to see a successful event organized by AIUB. Whole day was fun…..let’s look at some pictures. Though these pictures don’t show the actual joys but still….

Biscope, still here!

And right picture was taken when event was over and we were gossiping. Difference between them? Right one you see, her name is “chondona” , she collects empty bottles and sale them for food. I asked how much she actually earn from these empty bottles. 6-7 tk, she said. Only 6/7 tk? Didn’t say anything to her, I looked at my cigarette that was in my hand. That was cost 5 taka. I was leaving them in the air with lots of peace in my mind eh? On the other hand chondona, collects these bottles and then she walks a mile to sale them…and then she gets 6-7 taka – sigh!

Let’s Find a Heaven in This Hell…

March 2nd, 2009

Yesterday, my mom invited our relatives at our place for dinner…..ok, wait, let me come to this story later!

I have been pretending a lot since this BDR (Bangladesh rifles) mutiny. Stopping myself from updating my status about it or saying something on it on twitter. Keeping myself in silent when all friends are firing about what BDR/Army did, even when my family members are talking at dinner table.

I’m just too much shocked! I have no language to express this feeling. What difference would I make by saying something about it on twitter? Will these kids get back their fathers in their family? Will all these women get back their husbands in their family even if I scream so loud looking at the sky with spreading my hands? -sigh!

Another thing make me a little bit hypocrite talking about this. I will never feel the pain and sorrow that a kid is feeling after losing his/her dad. A women after losing her husband. I will never feel the same until I lose my own brother or sister!

I know I can ask thousands questions about this incident. But to me a question or rule is worthless when someone is already gone. Life is very beautiful, you have taken that life! What else matters to that dead person? But still I have a question! “why this happened?” no, no you didn’t get my question – I’m not asking what actually happened between BDR and Army so that it happened. Look around – almighty is all around right? He knows what you are doing and how you are doing? Almighty knew that it was going to happen right. If he likes to see people in peace then why wouldn’t he stop it? Why did he allow all these army people for misleading BDRs? BDRs are our brothers too, he knew that eh? If he has all powers then why wouldn’t he do such thing so that we people never fight with each other, we never hate each other, we never kill each other! – ok, I know im talking rubbish!

This is a hell, this is not the world I imagine. So, john lennon’s “Imagine” doesn’t give any peace in my mind. I’m just tired of all these things!

Ok enough, let’s come to the story I started at the beginning. So, we had lots of guests here at my sylhet house. Among them there, were around 8-10 kids! As usual, when I see kids I take them to my room or a place where I can play with them. And for some reasons kids easily adapt with me…

anyways, they were playing on my bed and I was taking some pictures of them while there were playing. They would fight and then forget, cry and then hug the kid who slapped! Things were going on for around an hour. Most amazing thing happened when a kid went to wash room leaving her chocolate on the bed. Next one came and took it, she asked the other one like “whos chocolate is this?” “it’s not yours” other kid replied. She left the chocolate exactly where it was! I was staring at her! Wow, i’m in heaven in this hell! Look at these kids who don’t understand what is called BDR and what is called Army! They are not bothered. But, they know PEACE.

I have found heaven in children! Now, I will go back to my music list to include John lennon’s “Imagine” again ……….
