Phnom Penh Pragmatic Programmers
Comments OffCambodia, Programming
Whoa, time flies. After finding out how to reset my password for this abandoned blog, I have some news for programmers here in Phnom Penh.
We have been meeting with a small group of people to discuss patterns and practices, going through GoF patterns with the help of this study guide. The first round is almost done and we are about to start from beginning again. So, if you are interested in deepening your OO knowledge, please go to http://groups.google.com/group/ppppkh/ and apply for membership. Or you can send a mail to me mr[dot]khmerang[at]
khmerang[dot]com.
Edit: Also, if you are a developer visiting Cambodia, happen to be in Phnom Penh a Tuesday night and have a hunger for developer company, you are more than welcome!

Web Browsers in Game Consoles
Design, The web, Web Standards, Web Browsers, Games
Opera for Nintendo DS and Wii… NetFront in Playstation 3… Assuming IE won’t directly port to XBox 360… I guess web developers now have excuses to buy HDTVs and game consoles!

Web Standards Quiz 2.0
Site Updates, Web Standards
Web Standards Quiz 2.0 is online. Like the nature of anything 2.0, it’s still in beta and might have some serious issues… so be gentle.
I had big plans to include plenty of new questions, but heck, plans are just plans, right?

Scared?
Cambodia, Music
Phew, how fast the days go by… a post a month seems to be my current blogging schedule.
You might (or should) be aware that South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun has been in Cambodia for few days now. Monday night I happened to be on a motodop at Mao Tse Tung while PM Samdech Hun Sen was on his way to meet him, at Intercontinental I suppose. Naturally, the whole boulevard was closed for other traffic while the parade made way. Quite a parade it was: a police bike, a police car (oh yes they have at least 2 in Phnom Penh), another police car (yes, at least 2 in Phnom Penh), few police bikes, a black car, few police bikes, PM’s black car surrounded (or swallowed) by some 20 police bikes, a pickup with some policemen on top, few bikes more…
I was impressed seeing PM’s car in midst of all these bikes and thought aloud how he must be very scared. My moto driver convinced me, saying that yes, a bad man needs to be scared.
You too can scare yourself, this Saturday: Scary Uncle will support GT Falcons at Zeppelin, from 9pm I hear.
Any thoughts?
