It’s already been a week now since I have had internet at my home. It works pretty well. Though I couldn’t stream video directly, I can wait for respectively 1.5X times the video length for smooth playback. Well, since I have been thinking on getting into web and stuffs of computer and internet, I have always wanted to make things of my own but somehow I have managed my self to not to do so.

In the last few days, I went through different websites and blog of different peoples on the internet. Found most of them inspiring. Basically because they are/were building applications of themselves. I went to Hacker News a lot and followed up the links as far as I could and tried to read almost all of the articles that I found interesting, basically those were related to startups, announcements of new services, attack made by LulzSec and other security articles and stories like that. I am afraid to say that I almost never tried to follow those links that were leading me to GitHub or were talking basically about the functions of Python or what is with the Node.Js. I don’t know why. May be because I found those links totally not understandable. I mean, hey I am interested in programming and these stuffs, but I am so afraid to get into the real core part of programming, real time programming specially, those the peoples in Silicon Valley are talking about because at this point I simply don’t get what they are talking about. I have done little programming with C and C++ and also later with PHP, MYSQL, HTML but hey, I got to get the basics before you teach me the black majic of those! I also went to some cool websites I didn’t knew they existed. One of them is Quora, one of the most cool Q&A site on the internet. Mention me if you want an invitation to sign up. Introduced myself a little about HTML5 and jQuery. I also tried to use the Vanilla CMS to make a forum at hamroweb.com but then I stopped due to some issues like there already was kind of a website that I wanted to build and I had to come up with some better idea instead of making up a clone of something. I Googled a little about PHP Frameworks and found CodeIgniter and Zend are some how active at this time while I was thinking of getting up with CAKEPHP. I was with Omegle for sometime and found it freakishly addictive specially when you are procrastinating and in misery and not sure what to do, it can take a lot of your time and make it worth nothing but procrastinate more.

At the mean while time I am a little confused which language should I get expert into. I mean seriously, I want to be an entrepreneur, and I know learning a single language and even getting to its advanced level and being an expert won’t make me. I had a little discussion with one of my friends on twitter about how much it is important to Code to be an entrepreneur? And finally we headed to a conclusion that, A guy who have an Idea, can surely learn how to code. But a guy who knows how to code won’t necessarily come up with an Idea. Well, may be it is some how against what @msuster says, but at least I think it is what in reality. As I am already familiar with PHP/MYSQL, C & CPP and a little with CAKEPHP, now I was thinking about learning some front end languages like HTML5 and JavaScript, basically because I guess it is going to have a great impact in the coming years in the web industry.

In the next post I will come up with some basic idea I got for my startups while wandering here and there.Thank you for reading this post. You may want to follow me on @deSushil if you like.
