Essay :

If you are still looking for more, you have enough time and is interested to know about me . Well ........ I don't know from where to start. I watched the wonderful movie "Who am I" of Jackie chan, from that I thought to change the name of the menu about to "who am i".

I am basically from Calicut , working as a web developer in PHP at ISPG , Cochin . Completed my BTech in Information Technology from Calicut University Institute of Engineering and Technology ( CUIET , Thenjipalam ) .

I am an opensource lover . My love for Linux starts from my college ( CUIET ) . There were some good seniors who have helped me to learn and who motivated me . I would like to express my sincere Thanks to them. Some of them who motivates me are George Victor, Kiran , Hafsal, Jayanarayanan, Jose Antony , Anirudh Sasi Kumar , Jaya Krishnan , Dileep often called Dilpu , Akhil , Ganesh sir, Akhil sir , Sunil sir , Muhammed Ammen sir, Shaukath sir .............. and lot more. Its mainly Dileep who have made me to learn the basics of HTML. He was a student of NIT . My fond for Linux makes me find Dileep with the help of one of my friend Akhil, who was studying in NIT .

When I met him , I recognised he was an EEE student . I really wondered , a EEE student having a website . Oops I am an IT student and I don't have one . It was in the fourth semester I started learning HTML . I was not aware of dynamic pages at that time. All I build was static HTML pages .So it makes a tedious job. Later I knew about PHP. Ganesh sir, have a good role introducing PHP before us. I some how learned it , not fully . This was in the Sixth semester .

After reaching my seventh semester , I came to know from Jose that its a powerful language and have great job opportunities. But I was not able to look more deeply into it . It was mainly because of the projects and seminars of BTech . Finished my course and was looking for a job , learned PHP from scratch with the help of PHP5 and MySQL bible. Learned a lot from it, every thing that I learn was new .

Got a job as PHP programmer at ISPG . My craise for Opensource and GNU/Linux starts when I came close and close to PHP. Now I am using GNU/Linux in my laptop and desktop . As I know some basic commands in GNU/Linux, I am comfortable using it. I have used redhat , suse , mandrake , fedora , debain and ubuntu . Now all my systems are in Ubuntu distro. The reason how I learned GNU/Linux commands is to configure an internal modem . I was successful configuring it with the help of a foreigner . I don't remember his name for the time being .

Now trying to make people aware of GNU / Linux and to show people the real world of Freedom . Enjoy GNU / Linux and Open source. Change the world. Hack and learn things . Hacking makes you fun . Enjoy Hacking. Don't misunderstand between Hacking and Cracking , both are different . Learn the difference between Opensource , freeware , shareware and propreitry software .

If you are interested to know about GNU/ Linux watch the movie Revolution OS .

This is some what me , not completely .

*Note : The quote "Career is like light and girls are like shadows" was the quote of the day my friend Riyas K P finds in devzone and skyped to me .
