Vinay Vinay (@DigitalGeek)

A Computer geek and an Electronics Engineer with 3 years of experience in development of Embedded Software Systems. I have developed applications using Embedded C, Data Structures, C++ and a little bit of Python as well. I like programming and working on building some cool stuff. I wouldn't call myself an "Expert" in any particular field, technology or language. I know quite a bit about a few things, and a fair bit about a bunch of things. The real trick is knowing that, and to always be driven to learn more.
