Geeking Out

I admit it. I have no formal schooling nor training in any web development but the passion is there within me to learn about it. My interest is there, mostly each time I chance an impressive website be it done in Flash or simple HTML, or what other language or codes.

I count my self blessed, if not fortunate, to have friends and students who are equally passionate but more knowledgable than me when we talk about computer and web development.

Sir Danny Bosito, was one of those who introduced me to the basics of computer during my early years in AUP Academy. Whew! What were those lessons again, sir? Hehehe... Thank you because the PC you gave me in exchange of my Honda motorcyle opened my eyes to see the wonderful and vast world of knowledge discovery and learning.

Sir Dennis Rondael, is a friend who never gets tired in assisting me whenever my first ever PC, a Pentium III 933mHz, crashes. He will spend the night with me reformatting my PC and analyzing what caused the problem. I am blessed, he was my room mate. Being the Head of the AUP Computer Dept. at that time, he sure was worthy of the position with the bulk of knowledge he has in him. He shared so much about computer and web browsing, including designing and other softwares.

Of course, how can I miss Marc Galang, my former student whom I call as one of the experts in Web Developing and even hacking... Opps... sorry...
He introduced me to Joomla! That's the reason why I braved to manage the AUP Academy website because Marc is always there, even up to now, to fix whatever be the problem.

Marc also hosts my personal website, the i-Creative Werkz for FREE! Thank you Marc. :)

Then, Erjan Orbe, my student in the Academy. A young man with lots of potentials in web developing and the masterful use of Adobe softwares. He keeps on updating me about the recent trends in PC vs. Mac, Joomla! and many other stuffs. Recently, he taught me about Simple Viewer and how to incorporate it in my website. I gladly followed his instructions, and there, I got it! How happy I am! Then, the wrapping of the LR Picture Viewer in the Gallery.

I believe that the younger generation can possibly surpass the earlier ones. We can just learn from them and appreciate there capacities.

With this realization, I came to confirm my simple philosophy: We can learn even from a kid. Therefore, Try to learn something about anything, and then try to learn anything about that something.

So, I would always geek out. :)
