I though it was interesting that OBJ's son is a Microsoft IT developer

In college, I was a JAVA Teaching Assistant.  As my time to graduate approached, we conducted interviews for replacements for myself and others.  Now, I don't remember the name well, but I do know that I did in fact interview an Obasanjo for the position.  Based on his graduation date, this might be him.  If not, then there was more than one OBJ at the school of computing.  Anyways, back to the story:

I didn't tell him I was Nigerian so he wouldn't expect any favors.  I must confess, he was pretty smart and he was indeed hired for the position and the rest, as they say, is history.  I am not surpised he graduated with high honors and is now working at MSFT.  He deserves it.

I first heard about him when he was making an argument/comparison b/w WPF and flash in his blog.
Although the comparison seems to be highly biased towards MS but I think he seems to be very intelligent
and knows the technologies he's talking about.

To diverge a little WPF is now what is MS released as SilverLight and ther're a lot of interesting things in it that
warrants a thread on it.

Back to Dare, I think he is a great IT professional.

I read his blog posting too,   We'll see what silverlight brings to the table soon :-)

ps: Silverlight was formally known as WPF/E , not WPF.  WPF/E stands for Windows Presentation Foundation Everywhere, and it is a web based subset of WPF, and is OS-independent.

Thanx for the correction man.
 I only picked an interest in Silverlight when I read about the DLR.
 I don't want to digress much from the topic of the post but I think SilverLight will be a great technology but
 will hardly be able to beat flash.
 Well Adobe is not asleep and they know that ecosystem much more than Microsoft.

There's a thread discussing Silverlight here in the programmer's forum.

Maybe we'll get more views about Silverlight there.

I did search I got 33,000,  I have seen that name for more than 3 years now,  ever time i click that name,  it goes directly to a pop up or a 419 letter asking you for money,  claiming is father his president,.  Yes , there may be a Dare Obasanjo working for microsoft.
Here I think is dare obasanjo,  He looks like Obj

At least some are hating, some are praising - and I am sure in few years time some who doesnt know him will come to this same forum to say he has stolen Nigerian money through his father - shame.
