Braincode, BrainIT & Hackpedia

The BrainIT competition is over. Hope that on 5th of January 2009 we will begin sending the prizes throughout the country. Thanks to all our sponsors and parteners and especially to Programare.org and the Software Developers’ Association (Asociatia Programatorilor de Soft).

I am now looking forward to finishing some projects for Braincode and finally post the website with the help of my team. Although I will be very busy, I won’t forget about BrainIT and I hope Braincode will be able to organize a new edition most probably in the summer of 2009.

What about this blog? I will continue posting some news about Braincode projects and as for the research, tutorials and “mini tools”, please visit the Hackpedia Ethical Hacking and Programming Community where I am one of the administrators (you can use Google Translate on that site). I will think about keeping you up to date with the articles I write for Hackpedia. :)

PS: Glad to have Page Rank 3!

BrainIT and the sending of projects phase

BrainIT

Hello again!

It’s the last day of registration for the BrainIT National Contest so hurry up if you want to participate! Last night Bacioiu Ciprian and I worked on setting up and testing the FTP server where the participants will upload their projects so, tonight at 00:00 (+2 GMT) we will get the server going and update the website with new information.

The hard work has started for us, the organizers.

BrainIT National Competition

BrainIT

I have been busy in the last half of the year forming a team of software developers named Braincode (the website hasn’t been finished yet). Our first project is based on education and encourages every Romanian student who develops software or web application to participate in it.

The BrainIT competition (motto: it’s all about imagination) takes part online (we hope that the next edition will take part in a city). You will have to register by 1st of December and add a description of your project. The sending of projects will be between 2nd and 15th of December. Then, we will start the assessment and give the results on 25th of December (for some of you it will be a very happy Christmas).

The website can be accessed here: http://brainit.braincode.ro (if you don’t understand Romanian, you can use Google Translate to view the translated version). You will find there the Criteria, the Schedule, the Awards and so on.

Gook Luck!

PS: Please read the terms and conditions before registering!

Braincode offers you waranty that no member of it will use in any way your projects or ideas.

CV Update

I’ve updated my Curriculum Vitae (CV) : click here because it was approximately an year old. You can also click this link from the About page.

Long time no see(write)…

Finally I found some spare time in order to write on this blog. I hope I will be able to write something interesting in the upcoming days as the summer holiday has come. I took some time off because I had a very tiring period in May with 5 contests (in which I was able to finish in the top spots).

I started working on a project, the project being a team of software developers. Although I am having my leadership capabilities tested, it’s quite fun and very different from writing software “alone”. Let’s hope this will come up nicely.

Off-topic: Many of you know that this period is marked by the EURO 2008 football tournament so HAI ROMANIA!

Hope to write here soon!

Something, anything…

I’m sorry I didn’t have time to post some new researches/minitools. I’ve been busy working on some personal projects and stuff like that. Of course Christmas and New Year’s Day “trapped” me and I couldn’t write a line of code nor to post anything. I hope in a few months I will finish my projects and take time off to relax or to post something interesting.

A happy New Year!

PS: I’m glad that Sub to Srt converter is  becoming more and more popular on the Internet (4th link – Google.com). :)
