F#un

I have been trying my hand at trying to learn a new functional language for the past some time and I made a pretty decent choice of F#. Since I am currently working as a .NET developer, I find F# tons more comfortable than other languages such as Clojure, Haskell or OCaml. I intend to get a deeper understanding of the language by solving problems from Project Euler. Solutions to follow :-)

Retrospective after BAD(I mean "BAD") Bowling

Finally, after many light years, an interesting thought actually worthy of being read on a blog has entered the trenches of my mind(Or at least I choose to think so). The ThoughtWorks University batch went bowling yesterday and I learned one thing from the experience --- I SUCK at bowling.

My fir_______

I originally started to write this post as a draft of my experiences at the ThoughtWorks Orientation . But later, it crossed my mind how blogs and digiital reading take out the real content out of a narration. Take a second how a story is read on the screen. Is it really a story?
Is something missing from it?
I think the problem is that the story gets transmogrified , or belittled into information . A story posted no longer remains a story. It gets converted into a few kilobytes of 1s and 0s. Is it just me who feels this way?Share your thoughts on the way you feel about digital reading
