I Found a New Language

It has been 7 years since I left my programming job as a senior Delphi programmer because there was no demand for Delphi programmers in Singapore.

The products that I dearly love so much had faded - dBase, Paradox, Delphi. I could not make a living doing what I love cos there was no demand.

With the advent of web 2.0 technologies, what will be the next best new programming language to learn. I want a language that is fun, easy to learn and application to the web technology.

Finally I found one that does what I want: the easiest programming language in the world, one that is cross platform across Unix, Linux, Windows and Mac Os, and one that produces web-based web applications.

The language is called Run Revolution. It has its root in Hypercard. Today I tried my first 'Hello' program. It's very cool. I love it. The codes are very short with English like syntax. Very much like Cobol.

Run Revolution is going to be my new toy, my new hobby, my new mistress. I can be sitting on my computer and tinkling with the codes for hours, and absorbed in my own world. This is an addiction man!

Welcome to the new world.
