My RSS feedburning stats have soared in the recent hours. I had seen my regular weblog reading stats booming from 100+ on average in August to 200+ in September while my RSS feeding statistics stayed stuck below 100.

Today 60 more people subscribed to my RSS feed. To the 150 people who got “Tech IT Easy” in their RSS feeder, to the 200+ people reading me on a daily basis, and – the most important bit, to the “Tech IT Easy” community, those who actively comment, I want to thank you. So, thank you.

By the way, I don’t know well what you like: entrepreneurial ideas? the IT leader “Who am I”? new IT product or service reviews? telecommunications? computer networking? software? e-Business and BPM? e-Commerce? Stuff about me? Be bold, be creative, tell me! I find it hard to understand your expectations well since the post I consider to be best hardly get many comments. So tell me what you’ll like to talk about and discuss right here.

And thanks again. Keep coming, start commenting (that’s what matters most to integrate a community: give!), and tell me what you like.

Donald E. Knuth, a Professor at Stanford University and Godfather of algorithmics, wrote in his bible entitled “The Art of Computer Programming” that computer science would arrive at maturity stage when 1500 algorithms would be known and mastered. In the beginning of the 80s, Donald E. Knuth had counted about 500 existing algorithms.

In your opinion, where do we stand today?

What does “the maturity era of computer science” mean to you?

Addendum September 25th 2006 – in a more recent academic publication (2001), Knuth stroke a contradictory stance: there would be an infinite need for computer science algorithms. If you feel like learning more about that, see this comment by Vincent van Wylick.
