First year as Software Engineer :)




Me and Subhayu Banerjee (cigarette Khabe) both joined e-Sutra on 1st August 2007(a day here or there). We worked for them very fine (for 1 month), all a sudden one day Mr. S. Mokhasi came with a proposal.
Which one of you like to work on the website and who like to work for the project with Subbu sir.
Since me and Subhayu both knew the project with Subbu sir is very good (both technically and a good add to resume), we were looking so confused, so, Sir given us a day time to take the decision. I went to Subbu sir’s house and had a chat with Subbu Sir and Savita mam, and Subbu sir told me to stay with Sudhi sir and don’t take decisions on priority. So I decided to stay with Sudhi sir and work on the BPOSutra.com, I was clear. I didn’t know about Subhayu.
Next day shock for me and Adi (Sleeping beauty of our office), Subhayu came and said “I like to work with Subbu Sir, because the project there is good for my future” Aaaaaaaaahhh…….
Anyways, now I was left alone, don’t know what to do. So I started again. Designing template 5 (previous 4 designed by me, Subhayu and Savita mam most all of them were experiments)
On weekends I use to call Subhayu, if I felt I’m stuck with something, but never ………… he suppose to come for downloads only ………. But I still had an impression I’m not alone, there is someone to help.

My first - Resignation letter

1st August, 2010

Mrs. Aparna M.
Head - HR, Admin & Finance
e-Sutra Chronicles Pvt. Ltd.

19th Main, Banashankari 2nd Stage
Bangalore-560070

Dear Madam,

After a considerable amount of thought and careful consideration, I have decided to pursue a different career and resign from my position as Team Leader with e-Sutra Chronicles pvt. ltd. Following with company policy, I am giving you a two months notice that my last day will be October 1, 2010.

I want to stress that my decision to follow a different career path has nothing to do with my experiences at e-Sutra Chronicles pvt. ltd. I have gained countless work experiences and a great deal of knowledge and I am very grateful for the opportunity I had to work here. I would recommend this company highly to anyone searching for a career in software engineering.

I have enjoyed working here for the past three years, but I feel that it is time for me to move on in my career. I greatly appreciate the opportunities you have given me to grow on both a personal and professional level.

Thank you,

Sincerely,



Sanjay Beedi

My great time during Development

My great time during Development (http://bposutra.com/index.php?option=com_mojo&Itemid=&p=5)
Posted by San B on June 7th, 2008 in the Category: General, Work
Its been a Headache hard time, specially from past 3 months.
The site was ready with all the functionalities, the only problem was UI(user interface). from April-2007 to Jan-2008 we changed around 5 templates, and then we started using template 6.
And in past 3 months template 6 is been changed 10-20 times.
After completing groups(for the first time) we started working on user-page, and in few days we finished it.
And then we ‘d a review from the Content Team, and they said user page is looking awsome, and then I asked what about the groups, and they said it looks a bit dull. Then we advanced the dates of the launch, and started working on group page (again :P ).
And when we finished that group we felt like user page is gone dull, and we started working on user page.
Finally today we are happy with what we have done and really itz looking good, all functionalities are working UI is good.
I’m getting great feed back, the best ‘r from
1. Sudhi sir’s friend : Suchismita
She said the site is good, clean. And I felt good and ’s not able to stop big smile, by the time she asked “so, how was it developing a site and working with sudhi”, but I’s not able to answer b’cus I was Smiling :) , and not able to stop it
2. Subbu Sir: hez been there all the time, but last few months he was out (US - for business), he came back ask me to give him a username and passwrod. Next day when I went to his place, first thing he did ’s SHOUTED at me “GREAT JOB”, I’s ???????. then he came near me and gave 2 hard short on my sholder and said “great job, the site is looking good. WHEN ARE WE GOING ONLINE” :)

Cloud is not for small players


Quite true, but can be played by multiple small players :)

Definitely the cloud technology is not for small players.
Its a big game, and no expectations in near future i.e. long term game.

but it can be managed by small players, like 2 or 3 small players get together and try it out.

like
1 handles Client, 1 Service, 1 Application, and 1 for Platform

and together they all handle both Infrastructure and Architecture

Major things to consider
Application Communications (HTTP, XML, AJAX)
Browsers/ user interfaces (need to be done, handle both online and offline issues)
Offline Implementations (if no connectivity)
Platform Solution ( can be windows, Linux or unix platform)
Service Data ( can be thru XML or database)
Web Services (any technology)
Storage (again a major issue to sort out)
Sharing (dedicated resources and virtually divided resources)
Security (will be a major issue)

Features in any networking site

I feel their are very few functionalities available on any social/professional/business networking site:

basic categories are:
1. Messaging - Scraps, Private messages and now a days something like status :)
2. Network/Friends - people already you know or second level (most probably you can cover the entire world at level 6).
3. Classifieds - Post ads purchase/sell.
4. Jobs - This is the only feature i think any networking can extent to second level, still from past a decad it is in its standard shape
5. Blogs - very common
6. PROFILES - theirs nothing effective - I like to show my profile to impress people - technicaly grow my network :P ........... same old profile - my pic, my place, contact ............ Can't theri be a thing Which is my own and I like to ....... :(

people have to think beyond this, now a days every week or so you get a mail "Join my network on ...." what to do? All look the same
