How my coding habits changed since 1990?

I start writing code since 1990 when I was in high school , today 18 years later when I think how my coding habits changed, I found three major events that effected the way I write code:

• Introduction of design patterns by GOF
• Introduction of garbage collector in Java and I need no more to free allocated memory
• Introduction of Test driven development

other than this I think the way I write code remain the same wither I code in Java, C# , Ruby or whatever else

Advantages of Offshore development in Egypt

Egypt is a great place and I would like to point here to some advantages of doing offshore development in Egypt:

• Large pool of technical skills
• Egypt shares a time zone with many European countries, which make Egypt actually a near shore location
• Egypt has a multilingual workforce
• Familiarity with western culture
