hello world

Hey guys how's it going? My name is Abdullah Bakhach.. I live in Tripoli but I work in Tripoli and Beirut..

I just moved to Lebanon a year ago from the states.. worked in Amazon and Sweet Tooth Rewards before.

When I signed up the rules said that I shouldn't self promote too much.. in that case take a look at http://about.me/abdullahbakhach if you would like to add me the social networks/learn more about me etc.

It was Piotr Yordanov who introduced me to this site.. I'm really excited to meeting people like him here in Lebanon.. I'm an open source zealot my self! And I'm all about promoting and endorsing it's use. 

Check out my github (https://github.com/abbood) and this website that I made for open source back in the day (http://www.fossfactory.org/) <self promotion />

Anyways.. keep me posted about your meetups and stuff in Lebanon.. I'm dying to come! :)

Re: hello world

thanks you guys :)

@xterm lol why is the name 'fossfactory' hilarious? anyways it uses crowdfunding and distributed development long before kickstarter or github came to the scene.. and even before git itself became popular within the geek community.. i know it needs a facelift and all.. but more importantly I think that us geeks here in Lebanon can do an oss project together (through fossfactory or otherwise) that can be real significant!

foss in arabic slang means fart, add factory to it and what do you get? :-)
