Search is everywhere

I’ve just finished reading a book: The Search: How Google and Its Rivals Rewrote the Rules of Business and Transformed Our Culture. It’s amazing. I read from desk to desk. I after that I’ve got so many ideas, I nearly exploded. John Battelle has great experience, and I must say it’s a good narrator. I’ve bookmarked his blog, it’s worth (John Battelle’s Searchbook).

It’s all about searching, and when I read this book I realized that’s true, all tasks we makes in World Wide Web begins in searching.

And now I know that searching is a future. My colleague makes him own business, very risky, because he has nice position in my new job. But I feel that he makes it and I hope he do so.

about me

My name is Sebastian Pietrowski. I've finished Warsaw University as Master degree. I started my journey with Java 1.1 with Thread and JDBC programing in 1998 as I worked for merlin.pl. In 1999 I've passed Java Programer Certificate for Java 1.2, and was solution architect of merlin.pl infrastructure when we was moving from pl/sql to J2EE. It was great performance optimization with 10 times more req/sec than in requirements and 85 times faster as original solution.

Currently I work as Expert Software Development Java at F.Hoffmann-La Roche. The company was founded in 1896 and today, Roche employs over 80.000 people. After work I'm involved in activities related to Scala/Lift, Ruby/Rails/Merb, Python/Django. This is because I try to be pragmatic also I'm focused on application performance and tuning with success in my daily work.
