I mean, they can always have another Friendster. At least Eskwela's a bit different. :P I'm tempted to blog about just to have a free account but I don't have a Mac! Maybe I can sell the account later. Hahaha.

If it were 10-20 years ago, then perhaps this is a good reason. The thing is, there are not that many bright software engineers dabbing in machine level or system level development as compared to those providing full applications and services. I am not saying that C/C are not important, it is just that it is no longer the major programming language used by enterprise. If you are going into firmware hacking, operating systems and networking, then there is no other way to do it than in C/C (unless, of course, you'd do it in SHIFTs and MOVs).

Somebody asked the question why some of the best open source projects are in C and not C . On C, C , Obj C vs. Java I think programming nearer the machine level would be a good reason. C gives you the power of low level languages. Its similar to using SQL. Its main goal is to abstract how the engine retrieves data but sometimes you need to know how does the database engine works. Besides after graduating most probably you will use Java anyway. I remember a debate regarding C vs C a long time ago.
