Ali Jawad's Portal Site

Well this is just an article summing up the idea about the whole website and me.

I did this site during the July war 2006 by Israel on Lebanon. Bombs where dropping on Lebanon left and right and I was in this safe sanctuary called NOCC www.nocclb.com. That was the company my career started at, the offices were at Bliss street on the 7th floor and with each bomb the whole building would vibrate.

Well at least it was safe there because it the office is facing the American University of Beirut. During that time we were resisting through some online activites, anti-war blogs and anti-israeli terrorism blogs..I mean more than a thousand lebanese civilians were killed during the war. Well I could not go anywhere because of the war so I spent all my time behind the PC, working, blogging and researching online solutions. That is where I met joomla and I just registered a domain name and set this site up using Joomla.

Well that is the story behind the site, my story is simpler than that. I am a first grade honor graduate from the Arab Open University, I graduated in ITC, Information Technology and computing. After that I started working at NOCC did a couple of certificates "CCNA, Linux+, MCSA and CEH". And because I am a bookworm I am looking for another certification to do right now. I like helping my friends out in IT issues and educating them. I am an active member of the experts-exchange portal, I think right now I am a Wizard over there. My nickname is shakoush2001 on EE.

I started out my career as a PHP developer but my current occupation is more related to System Administration with a touch of VOIP. My duties include all possible *NIX related task you can imagine + MS administration + VOIP networking and network security. Well all around it is a very interesting job, I like it because there is always something going on. I spend my spare time either doing some research on my Kubuntu laptop or with me beloved fiance .

Did I mention that I am going to be 26 next May ...that is 2008..in case I dont update this site for another two years :p.

C ya later ..guys.
