OPEYEMIAD:


I am happy you said you started from visual Basic 6.0.
Please how long do you glue with it before migrating to C and how old are you in coding.

I married VB 6.0 and am enjoying it, with the experience please who should I get married to next?
I have been coding since 1999/2000 as a hobby. And I still use vb 6 till date for some ultra-light weight projects (especially when I want a stand-alone app that can run from your pen drive). I started C/C++ around 2004 with Microsoft Visual Studio 6, but later on started using CodeBlocks (which Seun Osewa mentioned on a thread some years back).

@thread, I am done with the social networking project, so I have now continued with the sample code. I should start serious posting today with screen shots.

Wrong. Whatsapp is built using a derivative of XMPP that does not follow the XMPP specification. Its call FunXMPP. You can google that. But nice try anyway.
@chappie Sorry are you chappie as in the movie? Welcome to Nairaland ohhh. Please dont destroy us ohhhh. How is your artificial intelligence learning coming along.......?
funxmpp is still xmpp cause it use's xmpp protocol but minified version..

Python is not old at all. Its a very modern language. Its one of the most versatile languages i know. I can most nearly do the impossible in python and in record time too.

You are welcome. I shall be brief.
1. I started from visual basic 6.0 back then, then later went into c,c++,java and gradually entered web via asp/perl

Right now:
- For Web: I use php technologies, and I am an expert with JavaScript. Although I can use node.js and MEAN stack, but I have not yet done any useful project with it.
- For Windows Desktop: I use Visual basic 6 (for some light-weight projects), Visual basic .NET 2013, JAVA (for more stronger apps)
- For Windows Commandline: I use C,C++,PHP (yeah, it can do win32 console apps too)
- For Mac OS: XCODE/Object C (only runs on mac)
- For IOS: XCODE/Object C
- For Android: Android Studio / Eclipse
- For Hybrid apps: Flash builder with PHP
- Some other other platforms, but the above are what I really use for most of my work

Of course, I have summarized it a bit. . .but that is it in a nutshell.

@topic: I have almost finished the social networking site blocking me, once I am done, we shall kick off our long overdued tutorial.
THANKS A LOT!!

FunXMPP is not xmpp just a derivative. XMPP is a specification and funxmpp does not follow that specification.
