my pages project 001 – at 15/11/2008

As you aware, now i started to fill the pages in my blog, so far i’ve been publishing 2 pages, it’s PTC and PPC :

  1. the PTC is already on the good format, and i’ve included all the program i’ve been following, starting soon i will have status report on each PTC program listed. My wife lend me a hand on this PTC section, she manage 80% of the PTC account. So far i’ve collected about 30 or more other PTC program to try,

What this site will become.

It’s truly difficult to decide your blog topics, and much more difficult to stay focused with it. At first I try to build this site in Bahasa, then i realize that i cannot use Bahasa since I cannot use Adsense in Bahasa blog. Then I try to write in English. After that problem, another things keep bugging me, what will i write here ? Do I have to write about economy again ? I’ve been doing that with my previous blog [ id-economy ].

forum.belajarkeuangan.com

Guys, i start a forum under finance and economy topics, it’s http://forum.belajarkeuangan.com. Yes, it’s still empty and i hopelessly try to gain supporters from my friend, so far i got researcher from Gadjah Mada University [nickname : hamdy] on news topics; a great working mom at Bandung [nickname : p3ni] on practical finance and an IT geek from ITB [nickname : mfaa98] for helping me with the forum codes. Truly, all hands needed. Just PM me or simply leave comment here for volunteering.

If a programming language was a boat…

This one is inspired by a recent forum post, that still leaves me in amazement. “Hi, Im wondering how i can create a boat in turing and if someone can post a example”. This makes no sense, since one doesn’t normally make water vehicles in Turing, the programming language. Though this got me thinking — if a programming language was a boat, what would it be?

Turing

Turing would definitely be a kayak (thank you for comments). It’s small. It’s human powered. It’s often used as a beginner “boat”. And it’s also very Canadian.

Java

Java is a cargo ship. It’s very bulky. It’s very enterprise~y. Though it can also carry a lot of weight. Will carry a project, but not very fun to drive.
