    Here and There

    As the year, nears an end, its time for Indibloggies. Indibloggies 2005 is just getting ready. Their new site, Indibloggies.org has a pretty design. Debashish as Indi Blogger is doing a great job in organising the whole effort. This could be talk of the Indian Blogosphere for the next few weeks, so take a sneak peek.

    Manoj of StudentConcepts is arranging for an Himalayan Trek, Heat 2006, to beat the heat of next summer. The email brochure he sent out gives the schedule for this 10 Days / 9 Nights trek will start from Delhi. Seems like a pretty planned one. Check out Student Concepts for more.

    Seattle Tamil Sangam is hosting the first ever Carrom Tournament in Seattle area and it happens right next to my house. Its been hosted by the youth board and the president is good friend of mine. Worthy news is that they are arranging some good masala vadais, samosas and ofcourse tea. If you are around, do come along. NO MLM desis allowed !!

    Just in case, you missed the first staging of the uproarious Python Hyss…teria by EVAM, its time you get a chance to hurt your bellies. This weekend, they are staging it again, in Chennai. If you are around, you might not want to miss it. Read The Hindu review.

    With the rain receding in Chennai, Chennaites are getting ready for the musical rain. Usually it’s December but this time, the early bird is The Hindu sponsored November Fest. From U Srinivas to Shuvha Mudgal, there are a bunch of ‘not-to-miss’ musicians performing this month. Check the schedule as I take a deep breath.

    From now you would see too many crib postings here as I miss the Chennai Marghazhi Kutcheri. Get Ready !!

    Spielberg’s Munich – Trailer

    Speilberg's Munich

    After the tripods attacking mother earth, Steven Spielberg is all set with his next offering for Christmas. This time it’s an historical thriller based on dramatization of a real story. I only wish Mani Ratnam could bounce back as fast as Spielberg, after a movie.

    Munich, starring ‘Troy’ fame Eric Bana, is named after the 1972 Olympics at Munich, which forms the crux of the story. As the Munich site explains, it is a gripping suspense thriller set in the aftermath of the massacre of 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics. The whole movie production and the news about the movie were kept under covers , until the official trailer was released, few days back.

    Don’t miss to watch the trailer. The trailer sets high expectations for the movie especially John William’s background score stands out. Can’t actually wait to see the movie. For now all eyes and ears set to Dec 23rd.

    Anand on CEO Blogs

    Ashwini’s column in Silicon India on CEO blogging opens up a whole new perspective on why CEO and top executives should blog. She drives her point through two top executives in the valley. Anand Chandrasekharan, a friend of mine, co-founder of Aeroprise and more importantly a guest blogger to this blog, talks about his experiences on blog evangelism and its impact in markets. Rajesh Setty, well known for his book Life Beyond Code, also throws light.

    From Ashwini’s column, Logged out, Blogged in –

    While blogs have caught the frenzy of many CEO’s and top executives, it has also entered the world of news. Traditional Web columns and e-newsletters have moved to a blog type columns allowing instant comments and feedback. When you blog, people read. But what happens when you get blogged. Aeroprise, a mobile workflow management company found itself in a middle of heavy Web traffic!

    On another note, Anand‘s Aeroprise also made it to SiliconIndia Top 100[PDF]. Anand, Three cheers for the next stuff.

    I would love to stay

    I would love to stay with my current hoster, Total Choice Hosting. Two things that make me look for alternatives. One, they adviced the blog is growing and needs to setup a re-seller account worth $20/ mo. Two, No Fantastico option here. Hence, looking out for a domain hoster. Any suggestions ?

    Found this Ad on Sulkeha given by a dude. Though seems like a perfect business deal at the first sight, I donno what to say. Isn’t this the heights of chauvinism ?

    And they are talking about equal rights for a girl and free education for ‘single girls’ back in India. Indian Education ki Jay !! NRIs ki jay !!
