Like I've said before too - Microsoft is good in marketing (They're god-like in marketing,no doubt) but when it comes to their work - they terribly suck!
Not only that,just for sake of profit they have ruined the entire gaming industry using "DirectX".

So, if you're technology enthusiasts or Game developer then this blog of David Rosen is for you to Open your eyes.

    Even I like Game Programming. 😀
    Applying for an internship for getting my skills brushed.

    Nil,buddy 😔
    I am so dang confused atm.
    I have deep interest in :
    - VLSI/Embedded Systems (Hardware/Chipset designing)
    - Game programming (But strictly Linux)
    - Linux Kernel Development
    - Console hardware development

    I am learning(I would rather say - just reading) C++(g++), OpenGL, SDL, Python & my ECE Subjects - it's like Tooo much work & even though output is zero 😭
    I have never coded a game,but planning to do one small game (in the end of 2013) - once i understand this creepy random libs of OpenGL & SDL.
    If you got any cute book or pdf file or any tutorial then do share.
    PS : Straight Linux - Not interested in Winblows or OS X.

    Besides, I am having interest in various fields.
    1) Data Mining and Analytics
    2) Coding/Programming
    3) Software Development
    4) Mobile Application Development
    5) Game development (My Personal Favorite)

    Though I had done a academic research and summer internship in Networking and Security, but don't want to have a career in Computer Networks at the first place. I am keen interested into the programming and analytic parts of every project I've worked. Very recently, I've also completed my another research in Web Data Mining and now I'm working on Twitter API using techniques of Social Network Analysis and NLP.

    In the end, It's one and only Game Programming which makes me more interested and probably would like to have a career in the beginning.
