Thoughts That Occurred Too Late!

I admit that I have spent better part of the last decade sleeping through the developments in the IT industry . You see, I began as an average software programmer like most others and for a long time, my world only consisted of projects, deadlines, defects, quality metrics, CMM et al. I never bothered about the bigger picture - how does what I do fit in industry, trends that are shaping up the future, and just plain awareness about what is going on outside my "bubble". Of late, I have awakened to find the exciting side of the industry. That got me to thinking .. hmm, I wonder what I can come up with this new found knowledge.

That brings us to this section - Thoughts That Occurred Too Late. To satisfy my ego, I have dared to document all the half-cooked ideas that are sprouting in my brain. Unfortunately, in these fast times, I'm finding that some of my so-called "ideas" are outdated by at least half a decade or more. In any case, I thought I would at least write it up as a note to myself to see what could have been. All these thoughts are new to me but not to the world apparently!!! What are ideas anyway if they are not acted upon.

Indulge me, please! And do share if you thought if you had great idea only to find that it has been documented and used elsewhere.
