i am anna, why?

I support a peaceful, non-violent and people-driven movement to bring about positive change in the country. I support Anna Hazare and I am aware that some well-meaning citizens don’t. This is my attempt at justifying the support for Team Anna and trying to answer some of the questions criticizing the movement.

why-so-conventional?

Why can’t a computer engineer always fix computer problems or an electrical engineer fix all kinds of electrical problems? Is it because most professionals tend to work more on the fancy stuff than on the basics? To succeed in their respective fields, each finds the need to evolve by adapting to the new/cutting-edge/innovative developments of his/her field. And in pursuing all of this, they keep moving away from the basics.

I guess most professionals do this. And they do it well. They excel at what they do daily, their niche skills become finer and finer and they compete with others within a subset of their domain.

I did the same. Until I came across an interesting project.

the gaana bajaana on Pune’s radiowaves..

Tweet

“Ass… ass… ass…. ass…. Superhits 93.5” goes one of the FM radio channels in Pune… until sometime back, this terribly sad jingle played EVERY 5 minutes on this particular radio station… Jingle apart, the station has a hilarious group of RJ’s – including one who has a neither-here-nor-there voice [a voice that hasn't cracked as [...]

The world’s best CHAOS

Tweet

To go on to visualize a successful chaos, lets begin with Singapore of all places!! Singapore, as most of us are aware, is amongst the most disciplined, organized and well-governed city-states in the world. You can’t get away with littering or breaking rules. Shops and businesses strictly adhere to the time guidelines [and not tweak [...]

How I got lost @ Dalal Street…

The interesting thing about “stocks” “shares” “equities” is that when we first come to hear of these terms, we are fairly excited by their potential. [Not literally the first time but more likely the first time we come to hear of them after we have some of our own funds to invest - which by-the-way [...]

after an infinite number of “Oh yes, I am going to start my blog soon”, I finally created one and in the process found some use for the site as well [or at least I think so! :)]…
