Keeping Up with the Latest and the Greatest Technology!!
It's becoming quite clear to me that it's humanely not possible at all to keep up with all the interesting technological advancements and the projects which seem to be taking the world by storm.
It's wildfire - and if this word was ever used in a good way - this is it. A wildfire of innovation and a big bang of possibilities.
Should I look into IOT ( Internet Of Things ) which is such a hot property these days?
Or should I get deep with System Programming - wouldn't it be fun to be the unquestionable master of my machine ?
Oh how about the new platforms like MeteorJS - how many cool things I'd be able to make with NodeJS and Electron - countless!
And, who can't forget Android right? How useful is Android gonna be in future, how much should I get into Android internals and programming?
What if I want to customize my Android, how am I supposed to do it? Do I need to learn Java and all it's subtleties as a language - for some reason, I really don't like Java!
Shall I get involved with Firefox and the general Mozilla developers network and help create this Secure and Free world of software and revel in collaboration ? Perhaps Tizen is the next "android" ?
Or is it the Light Table which becomes the wave of the future, as far as the editors are concerned ?
How many libraries of the languages I learn do I need to be fluent at ?
Which plugins to use for the web browsers and even which browser to use while we are at it?
~~~~~~~~~~~

So, there's the verbal storm that's shaking my forced reluctance these days! Confusing, isn't it?
There are literally so so many open source repositories which I'd really like to contribute to. Then my goal for being this deep in technology comes to my rescue, you know where my True North is don't you=)
It has always been my Dream to contribute to science and to be able to understand what is beyond this all-too-human-centric world. There's magic out there, in the stars and in the emptiness in between. There are great discoveries to be made - that's my True North. Technology is just a tool toward that goal, a path towards that destination.
Become Limitless, through your Limits - This used to be an obscure thought but it's becoming all the more clear to me now.
Though the major thrust, in the Tech. World is towards using the Web-Tech. driven products and leveraging the one thing our entire species has worked so hard upon - the Internet.
Anyone who wishes to even be remotely a ToolMaster in future - must also be a WebArtist.
Oh, btw I'm gonna switch to OS X soon. Actually, I did use the Macbook Pro a while ago and as I had the option of refusing to work on it, I tried out various things which work for me and documented the entire process. I think it's the lighter counterpart Macbook Air which suits my needs better. So, there's gonna be this change soon when my PC ( a powerful desktop ) will be having a dual boot ( Mint + Windows7 ) and I'll work on the portable Mac Air. This Dell laptop's been a great companion through my college life and god only knows how many experiments it has been subjected to. It's has been a great machine to me.

So many possibilities that I can't help but feel a bit drowsy and overwhelmed!

For some reasons, I don't like Java too.
