A Programmer....

i've just got to noe that the application which i've coded long ago has been widely used by malaysians...

the feeling of satisfaction is kinda undescribable.. being a programmer.. i hv yet to experience that till yesterday when i saw an ad for the application on a billboard in the heart of the city near puduraya...

the application is a SMS information retrieval system.. n it's a small and simple system where consumers can send in queries on prices of controlled items via sms and get information delivered to their mobiles almost instantly.. this will depend on the SMS traffic and the SMS servers' stability...

it can be considered as a small achievement for me frm my first job.. anyhow, i won't be there to monitor and c the number of ppl using the service as i've left my x company for better prospects...

kinda curious on how many will actually use the application..
