As well as exceptional academic results I also have a strong demo of my work on my website.<br /><br />I am really keen to work for BR and would be grateful for a good word from someone like yourself!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09497568651798205151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700150753820174455.post-27931587715646977172009-12-06T01:31:30.431-08:002009-12-06T01:31:30.431-08:00Thanks for the reply, Sam.

I have a keen interest in programming, and really enjoyed your article in Develop magazine (think it was issue 98) about compiling code and optimisation techniques, and then came across your blog searching for anything else you may have written!<br /><br />Have to say I completely agree with this post! Think it has only been a matter of time before this sort of thing happened, and like you mentioned, others will surely follow! The argument may be that if you're not doing anything wrong then you have nothing to worry about (i'm certainly not one to torrent files)... but surely that's not the point??<br /><br />The internet has been pioneering in so many ways, one of which is the "freedom of speech" that comes with its use. It is just a shame that we are gradually losing our anonymity and this freedom is being controlled, as a reaction to the music industry being unable to cope with digital piracy!<br /><br />I for one think this should be abolished before it becomes widespread across ISPs!<br /><br /><br />(Btw I am looking for a work placement in the games industry for next year, and was wondering if you have anything at your company in a programming role? Please have a look at my online portfolio at www.sam-edwards.co.uk and let me know if you can offer anything? Thanks!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09497568651798205151noreply@blogger.com
