New Technology

I was shocked to hear a question from a champ in my Java class today – What is Silverlight ? Later on i realized that not many of the people i meet know about the latest that is happening in the industry today. We are in the year 2010 and the promises that technology today holds is beyond anybodies imagination. Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, ebay etc all our pouring in valuable contributions towards taking technology to new heights with every passing day. Its quite sad that even today what is being taught as a part of the software engineering curriculum is far far behind where technology actually is. And to add to the sad story the students are not putting in much effort towards practical learning. They are all focused on the academic part trying to learn what is written in books which are 10 years old. Despite millions of efforts by Microsoft, Apple and other companies towards making the society aware of the new technologies they are offering, we still lack in knowing the latest that is surrounding us. www.techaxe.com blog is an effort to make people aware of the latest technologies and a mode to present to them the actual beauty these technologies hold.
