Change of interest
I don't know why, this thing happened to me since I was a young kid. I could not focus on a single thing of what I am working on.
Remember my last post, I posted about myself doing online marketing I lost about RM100 without earning a single cent. I changed direction to do other things. Finally, after reading a book "Turn your hobbies into money making machine" I pretty much realized that there are some potential in me that I can bring it out and turn it into money making machine. It is all about hobbies and interest, do thing that you love and you know best. I have passion in programming, therefore why not give it a hit.
My current project, is a central database, a client-server system harnessing the power of .Net architecture, that is Visual C# Express (free version of course) and MySQL. I chose MySQL is because if I were to use the SQL server Express (the free version) I am afraid that there will be a lot of restrictions especially the capacity and the concurrent usage issues. Therefore, I switched to MySQL.
For the designing, apart from manual sketching of the database relationship, I came across one wonderful software which I can use for brainstorming. It is called XMind.
Now, since I am short of knowledge about programming database with C#, I need to find a book to be my company. Googling for that I found Professional C# 2008 which I think suits best for the job. There are some chapters talking about database,and Linq. Linq is pretty much about simplifying SQL query in order to work with C# code. Buy it online! It needs to be on softcopy, so that it is easier to search rather than flipping the indexes and glossary.
Apparently, this database system has started about a year ago. It went to a halt for quite sometime due to my IT support work. I used PHP before but I think my current passion now is C#, so this project can sharpen up my skills in database programming in C#.
