My New LinkedIn Summary

Monday, January 21st, 2008

I love technology. And when used for good, it can be used to create cool, interesting, useful, and wonderful things. My goal in the past, now and in the future is to contribute to the building of systems or applications that can achieve all of the above. Technology can help us connect with people, make us more efficient, keep in touch with our loved ones, discover new ideas or concepts, and simplify our lives, all of which make us happier humans. In the end, when everything we do is boiled down to its most raw form, we realize that happiness should rule all above. For me, that happiness comes from pursuing what I enjoy, and that is technology. And as it is something that I am passionate about, it is the successes, whether small or large, that make me happy. I also love music.

Music While You Work

Tuesday, August 16th, 2005

I am going to try something new today: I will not listen to any music while working. I don’t know if many people who are reading this listen to much music while working, but I definitely do. I always have it going. The problem is, if you are too involved and passionate about the music, you end up becoming somewhat removed from the work you are doing. Maybe its only me and my poor concentration, but try not listening to music too. See how it affects your work.

One time I was working at a client’s site, listening to Global Underground – Sasha – vol 13 – disc 01 – Ibiza, and I just was so into the music, that for about 20 minutes, I was incredibly energized and excited, but could not concentrate on anything other than the music.

I feel that the factors are the type of work you are doing, the amount of creativity involved in the work, the type of music, and how much music drives your mood.

I’d love to hear what people have to say, so please comment if you got something good.
