As the job search continues I have decided to add a new string to my bow and pick up a programming language.

Programming has always been an interest of mine but something I just never seemed to have the time to really dig my teeth into. I can of course write simple scripts and put together simplistic applications but I am after a deeper understanding. I am looking forward to increasing my analytical and mathematical knowledge as I progress through my learning.

Also as a but of a bonus an old friend has also decided to join in on the learning experience so we have scheduled some virtual meetings 3 times a week. So through the use of VOIP, screen sharing and webcams we are managing to create a virtual office and work through problems together.

Its a fabulous learning experience and what I would definitely choose to use in the future.
