7DRL Begins
Hi People,
Great way to experiment with code begins this weekend. 7DRL is your chance to build a game in 7 days or a bit longer. I am up to my 6th attempt and given only 2 success’s I need to lift my game this year and it’s a high difficulty factor for me.

[OT] Blade Runner Quote
If you haven’t seen it yet – please please watch “Blade Runner”. It’s my favourite film if all time.
My favourite quote:
“I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.”

Presented at Get Connected Canberra #2
Huge thanks toRibit, CiT, Canberra Uni and ANU for having me present the Xero vacation program at Get Connected Canberra #2. Neha Sood (Grad Developer – Xero) came along with me, and we did some really great micro interviews with Students.
I got to provide a 30 sec brief on Xero and out vacation program for Software Engineers and we then spent around 90 minutes doing mini-interviews
Was a really great night and met a bunch of sensational students interested in coding.
For any students who attended who are interested in learning more about C#/.NET check out lots of articles/links on this site as well as a bunch of other cool websites  for .NET learning resources including: http://www.asp.net and http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/
