PROJectBee

PROJectBee is primarily set up to provide a good learning avenue for all security enthusiasts out there. Although it’s more likely to focus on Web Application Security, but it also likely to talk about programming (mostly in PHP), network security, and at times, the author’s irrelevant philosophies. Kindly bear with them.

We believe that real expertise is all about having clear fundamentals -be it knowledge of HTTP protocol for web programming or knowledge of computer memory management for a desktop applications. Having a solid base in fundamentals not only makes you a good programmer, but also makes you appreciate coding. You write more efficient and less insecure codes. So pretty obviously, we will attempt to provide a fundamental guide on various topics every now and then.

However, we also believe that understanding HTTP (or TCP/IP or memory management) should not boil down to reading a 1760 pages of RFC. Not initially, at least. Learning has to be fun, interactive, and if and when possible, visual. Needless to say, we’ll try to provide demos when applicable (and of course when time permits, which is always an issue).

  1. I like your blog title. Explains an engineer’s plight so well :) Thank you for stopping by my blog. I appreciate it.

  2. Shukriya :) It’s accompanied by a slogan (which was missing until now as I shifted from blogspot to WP recently), which explains that my motive was to expand the title to life too.
    I must, however, admit that this blog is meant for my tech related posts only. My personal rantings are recorded on my other blog. It’s title derives it’s name from a William Cowper’s poem. :)
    BTW, your blog theme has very clean look. I am still looking around for some similar theme for this blog. :(

  3. Oh I see your tagline now :)
    [It’s title derives it’s name from a William Cowper’s poem. :)]

    Really? Which poem? I love reading good poems (but non-Victorian stuff).

    [BTW, your blog theme has very clean look. I am still looking around for some similar theme for this blog. :(]

    Thank you :) I played around a lot with themes. It’s called Fadtastic. You can try it too. The only thing is that only the latest post is displayed. All the other posts are archived below. There is another one called Twenty Eight Thirteen (3 column). That’s quite nice too. Among the two column themes, Misty Look and Press Row are really neat.

  4. The first line of William Cowper’s “The Solitude of Alexander Selirk”: I am the monarch of all I survey
    I love this poem.

    You can try it too.
    Actually I need some theme that would give a feeling that the blog is technology related, and would yet be readable.

    …and boy! You really have PLAYED with themes. :)

  5. well the funny thing is that I distinctly remember seeing you website (.org one) a couple of weeks back. Don’t remember where I got the link from. And I went to your friend Lalit’s blog and really LOVED his design. It looks SO COOL. I think it’s one of the best deigned personal website I have ever come across.

    Lots to ask for…if you still want to remain at WP, you would be better off getting a CSS upgrade or expanding your website on the server that you’ve got.

  6. Sorry for delay in reply. Actually, I am on vacation. :) Lalit used to have a web development company, and is currently working with Slideshare.net. I have a few similar geeky friends. :)
    I was manipulating the possibility of picking a theme and modifying the CSS. It doesn’t look feasible though; have too much on the to-do list and too li’ll time. :(

  7. well the funny thing is that I distinctly remember seeing you website (.org one) a couple of weeks back. Don’t remember where I got the link from…
    Probably from Amrit’s post on American History X. I just saw that you had commented there too.
    The world, apparently, is a small place. :)

  8. Ahh yes :) I guess that explains it.

    I agree, working with a CSS style sheet takes a lot of time. I am too lazy to do it. That’s why I came to WP after trying out Blogger for a couple of days.

    Enjoy your vacation :)

  9. ” that the fun reduces when your interest becomes your job ”

    I think thatz kinda little true ( and according to Johnny’s agreement metrics : /me agrees by 19.34%)

  10. Aah! I am impressed by the Johnny’s agreement metrics. I hope the implementation isn’t copyrighted or patented. :)
