Hey there !

Hi I am Dhruva Sagar, I am an Application Programmer! I am from India, and my current native place is Mumbai. I am currently in Bangalore working as an Application Programmer for an eminent organisation (for those who are wondering which and why I am not mentioning that here, well I don't want to be violating the BCG [Business Conduct Guidlines] that i signed up with them, so I consider myself better off keeping their name hidden from here). I have completed my engineering (B. Tech) degree from College Of Engineering Roorkee, Roorkee which at the time was affiliated to U.P.Technical university.

I now have about a year of experience and my work so far has been in Java, XML, XSL, XSLT, VB, DB2, Java Webservices, as well as some work in J2EE lately and have gained quite a lot of critical experience as well as knowledge in the same now. Though I have been working in Java and VB for some 3 odd years now since college times and have a decent skill level in the same but my experience that I have gained in the spheres of XML technologies such as XML, XSL, XSLT, XPath have been extremely good also considering the fact that these are emerging technologies, being used widely accross organisations for several purposes.

I have keen interests in programming and learning new languages (programming languages!) and trying to come up with new things using the new things that I now know ;). I am specifically oriented towards Open Source Programming and have a few small (really small) projects / contributions of my own to the Open Source world. Though my contributions in Open Source aren't quite accountable (yet...), I aim to participate heavily in it in the coming years and aspire to come up with good front end market solutions and perhaps some good highly appreciable and flexible solutions. Currently I am focussing more towards market research (for the same) and learning newer things as well as reinforcing what I already know.

For those people who face difficulties in checking sites often for newer content and miss
important / nice content because of this, I recommend you to dwell a bit more on RSS / ATOM feeds.
My Wordpress blog here offers feeds like many other blogs and such sites that have new content coming
up very frequently. You can use several feed readers that are out there and it'll help you keep track of the
things going on in the sites, without you actually having to go there manually each time. That's the beauty
of it.

I have been working a lot lately and often I get really tired just like anybody else, but the weird part is, the more I tire, the more I want to work.
