Updated ‘About Me’ and ‘Vision’ Pages

As the title indicates, I have updated the About Me and Vision pages.  Go take a look!

I am still considering whether I should put up some of my business ideas on my Ideas page. I will most probably do it, but it will take a while to upload them so stay tuned.

So…CUTC 2008 Pretty Much Sucked

CUTC2008 crap like bird crap

My apologies to my peers who were volunteers at the Canadian Undergraduate Technology Conference ‘08, but the conference was really really bad. The atmosphere of the event felt very “last minute.” The delegates were rude, clique-y and anti-social. Presenters, who are the main attractions and contributors to the conference, were only given t-shirts as prizes. This made me feel both embarrassed and a bit ticked off. Also, the TechExpo blew too. It was suppose to showcase emerging technologies, but instead was an open-floor for companies to promote themselves or recruit undergrads.

Well, that was my one minute rant. Any longer might be considered to be offensive (not that it hasn’t ticked off the volunteers already.

A t-shirt as a prize? Wow, I want to be a guest speaker for this event again!
