Hello Everyone,
As a part of
#MSA I would like to share few things about my journey with Microsoft and
Microsoft products through this blog.
How has the Microsoft changed
our lives? - is certainly one of the easiest questions to answer, because the
way Microsoft has impacted our lives is evident in every walk of life. From the
day of introduction of Microsoft "Windows" to the inception of 3G and 4G technologies, Microsoft's developments have
impacted our lives in a way that it is next to impossible to imagine this
world, without its presence. While Microsoft developments have made life
amazingly easier, simpler and anything is just a mouse's click away.
As we
all know that computer is just a box without the Operating System, Microsoft
introduced an operating environment named Windows on November 20,
1985. Microsoft Windows came to dominate the world’s personal computer market. Now
it has been moved to Windows-8.1. It provides an simple and
awesome user interface, where even children feel comfortable to use the
computer.
The
impact of microsoft on education is a classic example of the way our lives have
changed by microsoft. Our forefathers never got the opportunity to study in
interactive classrooms with 3D images and projectors and they never had an
access to the ocean of knowledge, the Internet and various other computer
facilities. Microsoft's- MSPowerPoint ,MS Word, MS Paint, MS Excel
and the Internet technology has given teaching an altogether different
dimension. Education has become computer dominated in this era and it has gone
beyond notebooks and blackboards. Computer education has become an integral
part of college education all across the globe, as it is the key to make the
students competent enough to meet the industry requirements as well, where the
Microsoft is helping the students to gain such knowledge by offering courses, boot-camps and workshops apart from academics.
I had
been a part of Boot-Camp by Microsoft in our campus for developing
Windows-store app with lots of fun. It was purely
possible because of Microsoft Visual Studio. I feel it is one among the
best IDEs which provides such an awesome user interface and allows developers to
develop beautiful apps just by dragging and dropping and less coding. The .Net
framework is also an awesome IDE by Microsoft which also contributes to
develop the windows forms, web pages etc; in C# and other programming languages. Microsoft's Skydrive-Onedrive, Outlook, Bing Search, Dreamspark are also best.
The best moment was “Hackathon” a 24-hour Appfest, held at 29th September,2013 where we were allowed to develop an app within 24 hours, it was like a day and
night match of developing apps and fun with friends and students from other colleges were also
allowed to participate and showcase their talents.
I would
like to thank Sir Sandeep Alur, Technical
Evangelism Manager, Microsoft Corporation (India) Pvt.Ltd and Sir Vinay S, Head
of the Department(CS&E), PESITM, Shimoga and all the supporting staff of PESITM and Microsoft to conduct
such an wonderful event in our campus and to publish my app in the Windows
store. And made me to say proudly that Am an windows-store App Developer. My app is one among the Top-100 Apps by PESITM, Shimoga.
Being a MSA:
There is need
creating wonderful apps which can help the society and to convert the knowledge
learnt as theory to practical. Not only the entertainment, social, games,
sports, arts, business, music, education apps there is need of some other apps which
can contribute to the society and nation. As India is a country of young minds,
there is a need of usage of such minds and contribute to the society. I feel
that without the problems there can’t be the great ideas which can change the
world. Check for the problems first and develop a good solution which doesn’t
help to oneself but as a whole to the society. Youth should contribute to the society by conducting boot-camps, workshops and seminars about the emerging technologies. As a MSA I would like to find solutions for some of the problems and learn lot of new technologies.
Hope to see myself as a part of MSA soon.
Thank you.
