On A Loose End

Cell phones are smart and are now turning out to be smart phones. The mobile operators are smart and are turning out to be smarter. They don't let you hang up without an answer, they tell you why you should hang up. Maybe they think you would continue to wait for that elusive voice on the other end of the line. So you have messages like, the user is out of reach, network problem, busy etc. Hardly creative. But don't worry, it won't be long before the operators get even smarter and let you listen to messages which make you feel that they are really on your side. First time you call up, "The subscriber you have called is not responding". Second time, "The subscriber you have called may be busy elsewhere and will probably call you when he is free." Third time, "The subscriber just finished another call. What will it take for you to realize that the subscriber you have called is ignoring you?" or "The subscriber you have called doesn't eve...

On World Environement day, Mahindra did their bit by asking the Mahindra vehicle owners to drive into their service stations and get a free PUC check for the vehicles. Did I say Mahindra, I should have said someone in Mahindra Company. As a proud owner of a Mahindra Logan I drove into the Mahindra Global Gallery service station at Kolshet Road Thane.There was a big poster announcing the eco-friendly drive. I was still at the gate wondering which side to take my vehicle to when the security guard asked me to move to a particular spot since there was anither vehicle behind me. I complied and then got down to ask the security how to go about claiming my free PUC check. He confidently told me to take a token from the reception inside. I went inside and asked the reception.

I went in and there was another girl who stopped ...

And like in the other cases, after a lot of talk, allegations, clarifications the issue will die down and those involved in the scam will laugh all the way to the bank. While I was surfing the net for news on the Sukna scam, I came across a report in the Indian Express about the shady deals in the "Adarsh Cooperative Housing Society" in Cuffe Parade, Mumbai. Apparently the land which was known as Eco park was transferred to the society formed for the welfare of Kargil Heroes. The land was transferred to the society at hugely concessional rates. At the time of the article which is dated 2003 their was a lone subedar in the list of members. The deposit amount at that time was Rs 6 Lakhs. Considering the amount to be twenty percent as is the norm, the flat was valued at 30 Lakhs in 2...

“A Beginner’s Guide To Blogging and Making Money Online”. That's the title of my first non fiction book which I have co-authored with my wife. After having spent close to three years blogging and working on the other sites on the Internet, We decide to share our knowledge with the public. And hence came the idea of writing the book. I have seen many people who are spending a lot of time on the Internet and not getting back anything other than maybe satisfaction of sharing their thoughts with the others.
