Bud(ing)IT(e)

Well it has been a battle well fought.....and am happy that winner is me the net savy cool person aspiring to achieve maximum with zilch or minimal effort in an ethical manner.

It has taken me 2 years of (blog) reading - Kiruba, Somu, Jaydeep, GS, Balu, and few months of following Gaurav for a an oldie like me to make some sense of whats happening across us. Let me confess that names mentioned here are just an indication and they atmost represent 2% of all those whom I should acknowledge for helping me understand the world today a bit better.

Last weekend saw some interesting developments in my life and now I have discovered what I was always seeking, more on that later.

I am pleased to inform you that starting tomorrow my raddiwala will have lesser work as I am no longer under information overload syndrome. I am starting with chopping newspapers out of my life. The leading national newspaper, probabily only one with Readers Editor and the leading national business daily may not realize that I will nolonger miss them.

But some where I will be welcomed with red carpet(of nice banner ads) as I am slowly moving into more engagements with them. Yeah you are right, I am watching Budget 06. So chill and relax, don't worry when everyone is rushing to buy some things which are produced by cutting trees (thats how (news)paper is produced i was told), some others might be glued to TV channels and enduring misery of having no control on sequence of events, here is the choice you make today and once for all, that given 2 ways of attaining same experience whichever way you choose defines what you get and also the option chosen decides what kind of earth you leave behind - a clean, green one or some what worser than today - choice is yours !!

I am a simple person who intends to maximize benefits with minimal efforts and almost no restrictions. This Way suites MyWay....

So as markets react to Mr P Chidambaram's announcements, go ahead and relax amongst chaos...I am damn impressed with all the agencies - Sify, NIC and any others involved would have worked together to make this happen. It is incidental that I work in Sify. I am once again feeling proud of my company and this time also sharing the feeling with you.

One thing which impressed me was Finance Ministry website - they don't have a single snap of their boss...gr8 guys ....ways to go....
