Choice to be made.

So far so good. Its been some time, where I have been pondering upon what to write about. Should I use some marketing brains to choose a perfect topic and just throw it in or just be me. Its time to make a choice here and its not going to be so easy. Therefore, I am not going to make any choice here. Let me think more on it.

Starting from the experience so far, I have found some things regarding the Internet media that I want to share:

1. Blog is not Wiki : No matter how much you try, blog can never be wiki because wikipedia already exist and there's no reason to copy it. Blog is a place to share your views with people around the globe who understand what you are talking about. You can't talk about marketing with a guy from literature, right.

2. Social Networking, a place to Advertise: So far, I had used social site like: hi5 and facebook to connect to old lost friends and communicate with them. But recently, I find myself adding anyone in my friend list and updating my status with new posts, so that people will read what I have been writing. This brings me to another phenomenon that occurred recently with a friend of mine, Bhupendra, his success in twitter was remarkable and a interesting. Check it out.

3. Obsession with the updating status: This one is the remarkable phenomenon that has occurred in the Internet. Today, people over the Internet are looking at each others profile, adding as a friend and making new connections. But this small section where you update your status, as if you are some machine is interesting. This demonstrates how expressive humans are, it also explains so many facial expressions that we can give. Also, its a great way to start a conversation. For example: If you meet someone, who doesn't show any expression, it difficult breaking the ice. But lets say, you meet someone who is happy, or sad or anything, you can at least ask the reason for it and there is goes, you are friends.


4. Twitter gives you the latest news: Unarguable, not only twitter but, these days, you don't have to log on to news site to get an update on the news. You just have to connect to your social network site and there you go, everyone is already talking about it. Its so similar to the physical world.

5. People's changing attitude towards information: All this points to one things and its people's attitude towards the information. People have become obsessive about it, they want more and more in less time, in small packets where they don't want to chew but just swallow. Its this behaviour that is new in human race, its this attitude that has some how created more opportunities in market and also somehow caused the real in depth news to lose its attention.

So, these are few of my observation and analysis. Well, as I said earlier, it has been some time ,I have not written but the fact is I did write, only things is it didn't sound correct to post it. Its better to be true to yourself and write that way, its better.

Good Ad Versus Bad Ad

At InRev , for past few days we have been working on our new project. The project is about collaborative blogging, from the blogger around the world. As Bhupendra and I have been blogging for long time, with his immense experience, our team has been working to revamp the globalthoughtz and create a new blogging experience. In this site, we are planning to add a section where people can add their advertisement. We thought lets start by our own :), with already so many products on the line, it was obvious. So there goes an effort to create a small 128 px by 128 px logo. If you are a designer, you know that designing is a very time consuming process. For hours, you just test around with colors. Remember there are 256 X 256 X 256 combination of colors!! Its hard job selecting one. Lets start with F-Cube : In short F-cube is a Free Economic Reporting Site. Let me exhibit some Ad made for it and its pros and cons. (Please don't click on the image. Wait till the end. Thank You) OK, h...

Bruce Lee

Yes. Bruce Lee . Remember all the punches and kicks in his all time hits movies. But why am I talking about him. Am I going to talk about his movies? No, I am not. I am going to say about his philosophies which have been so many times projected in his fighting styles. By the way, he also wrote a book. Many may not know but he had a unique way of thinking about the life and his art of fighting. Let me put forwards his thinking, in my own words.   He believed in efficiency and rejected any amount of redundancy that affected the performance. He believed that there is no one style which is correct. Everyone has their own unique way and must harness those skills rather waste their time in doing something that is not efficient at all.  There are many fighting styles carrying their own norms and values. Every style starts by assuming something. But slowly those assumption are taken as a Gospel truth, and people make them into rules which cannot be broken. But, without understanding the key me...

Being an Artist and Being an Entrepreneur is almost similar

Most people flock to big cities to pursue their dreams and struggle for years. Some people succeed but many still find themselves waiting for the opportunities. They consider that opportunity is the biggest thing that can actually leverage their talent or skill. But I believe that it is not always so. There are couple of examples that proves that opportunity along is not everything. Moreover in today’s media hyped world, opportunities are everywhere from a reality TV shows to your own youtube channel, twitter account or facebook profile. If you look around in youtube, there are lots of artists doing great with their skills and scaling them to offline. This gives a lot of encouragement to all those people who want to pursue their passion. But there is a reality beyond pursuing your dreams that everyone considers once in a while. It’s how far you can take yourself with what you have. Most people get stuck on it and lose their passion in mid way, and some people simply cannot go beyon...
