Because,– Smart developers prefer email to IM– They are busy, as you are– More easy to manage / save and index
Why email and not IM?
For easiness, use an email client, like– Thunderbird - Easy to use and manage– Mutt - If you love terminal. More powerful!
Why email and not IM?

Why email and not IM?
Languages for quick start
– Easy to learn– Rapid development– Beautiful code– Documentations:
• http://docs.python.org/tutorial/• http://diveintopython.org• http://learnpythonthehardway.org
Python

Why email and not IM?
Some projects written in python
– Deluge, A BitTorrent client– Yum, Fedora's package manager– SMC's Language processing tools– Bazaar, Version Control System– Django, Web framework– PiTiVi, A video editor– Ubuntu Software centre– Gwibber– Google, Youtube and other big companies use
python– Goolge App Engine

Why email and not IM?
Languages for quick start
– We've already started learning languages– Powerful and fast– Lots of projects to get involved– Documentations:
• Think in C++: http://is.gd/P2tZOn• C Programming Language : K & R
C / C++
15/07/11 MES College Of Engineering, Kuttippuram19
Why email and not IM?
Some projects written in C/C++
– Linux Kernel– Git, Version Control System– Gimp– Mysql– Apache and many other server software– GNOME– KDE– Webkit, Layout engine to render web pages– Blender, 3D Animation software

✔ Revision control✔ Easy collaboration ✔ Most of the open source projects use a certain
version control system, such as git, svn, bzr or cvs
✔ Github – Social coding
Why Version Control Systems?
