su_sivabalan: ennada... enna nadakkuthu
chennaigv: onnum illai da
su_sivabalan: i have a idea ..
arushiva: whats that tell me
su_sivabalan: will take a topic for each ..will start reading that.. and will discuss that so it will be a knowledge for everyone .. what do u say correct me if iam wrong
arushiva: really wonderful da
arushiva: so tomorrow morning we will start reading some topic
chennaigv: okie thats pretty good idea
su_sivabalan: not some topic.. will fix one for each and start looking more into that
su_sivabalan: its should not be one day for each topic..
su_sivabalan: taking one topic .. and try to explore to its core
su_sivabalan: learn more and more out of it .. till you decide.. nothing more on that
arushiva: really great idea machi
arushiva: come lets discuss now and decide the topic for tomorrow
su_sivabalan: first tell me is it goign to be open source or common
arushiva: common da
su_sivabalan: if its going to be open source we can have topics like perl,java, c++,linux,cgi,xml,
arushiva: first lets explore related to our project then we will move on to microsoft products
chennaigv: i guess we can discuss anything under the sun .. but lets discuss what would be helpful in building our career ....
su_sivabalan: but unless until .. we are serious about the subject.. nobody can learn anything out of it
arushiva: true da... i suggest instead of taking the whole language or scripting language we will take modules of a specific language or DB then discuss on that
su_sivabalan: it could be something like .. you can send a whitepapers, pdfs,documents,ppts related to that particular subject you are going to take.. take sometime of your work to get those.. and if you find those would be helpful.. go thru those article prepare a small document of it and send so it is understood by others..
su_sivabalan: Its not something .. you send a url.. and i read it.. its something everyone should know everything about it
su_sivabalan: there should be a discussion over each artcile.. questions has to be raised.. and the person is responsible to answer to those questions next time..
chennaigv: a wonderful thought bala .. so why dont we do this .. we create a blog and try explain what we have understood .. a small description abt the topic / subject
su_sivabalan: if you feel.. its practically impossible .. will drop these idea
chennaigv: this way we would have a log also and can also be looked again for reference ..
arushiva: y cant we start today by creating a blog
chennaigv: no bala its not .. as u have seen kenni's blog like he explains what he has seen or experienced .... we can explain what we have understood .. quote examples .. give links so that this becomes self explanatory ... comments can be posted ..
arushiva: true machi .... the clarifications can be posted in the comments
arushiva: and we can answer the same immediately
