Hey, I am Syed Balkhi, The guy who is behind Balkhis Inc. I entered the industry back in 2002 not knowing a single thing. I barely spoke English at that time. In the past six years, my language barrier has been eliminated. Aside from English, now I also speak html, and php. Along with the languages I have also managed to master a few arts. Art of web-designing started when I first entered. Messing around with photoshop, I learned how to create my first web design. Now I founded a web designing firm Uzzz Productions. After running numerous amount of websites in various niche, I have mastered the art of web-development. Now I am compiling a resource of what I already know, and what I am learning on this blog. This resource is to help me if I ever need a guide to look back to, and it is help my fellow webmasters.
Good luck in you summer classes. Also it is crazy how fast twitter has exploded hasn’t it. If you had asked me what is twitter a couple of months ago I would have had no clue.
Yes twitter has grown significantly. It is amazing. Thanks I will try my best in summer classes.
Good luck at your summer classes and have a safe trip
Following you now on twitter, I hope your summer classes goes well and you come back with a post dedicated to it.
All the best Monica
I am told that Pakistan will be hot! Anyway, nothing like a vacation at home. Have fun. Unfortunately, I am not tech savvy enough to guest post for your blog. I wish I were!
Yeah Pakistan will be hot .. Good thing there is A/C right lol
Nice list…. I’m just off to check out the Photoshop effects.
I’d love to go to Pakistan one day. I grew up in an Pakistani / Indian / West Indian / Chinese area in London and as soon as I was old enough I barely touched English food….. I have been wanting to go to Pakistan and get some real (non-westernized) food forever
Yeah the food is one of the best parts about Pakistan. I love eating there too.
I attend Penn State, this week is my finals week, so I am happy about that! No summer classes for me though… but if I could afford it, I would definitely take some summer classes! You are lucky!!! Best of luck!
Till then,
Jean
