Sridhar: Web Unplugged!!!!
Thank god. It Isnt a Brain Surgery, Its a Web App!!!Tehelka, Tarun Tejpal & Us
Last week had been, in decent words, disappointing to say the least.
I was and I am still a BIG fan of Tehelkha & Tarun Tejpal ( Hold ur abusive words for a while).
Sometime back I wrote a post on Tehelka. While I strongly believe that any case of sexual assault/rape should be dealt with strongest & strictest way possible to create fear so that such incident never ever happens again.
I, for one, feels cheated like many in the media industry. He taught us the difference between right and wrong. And here we are now judging him morally.
To tell truth, I have written to shoma chaudhary, many times, seeking a position in Tehelka. N i will continue to do so.
The fact is last week was a rape of all our moral values as a individual and as institution. I have read articles in Open Magazine, IBN Live blogs, Times Of India Blogs written by some prominent journalists across.
I have come to understanding that in the case of Aaarushi double murder case, the proof is still far from missing and proved.
One side we have a case shut withour concrete evidence and motive proved. And on other side we have Tarun Tejpal case of sexual assault.
Truth will take its time to come out in open.
We continue to believe in justice system. Or somewhere have we started questioning ourselves?
Simplest solution to end corruption in India.
If I hear one more time gush over anti-corruption bills and laws, I swear, I’m gonna puke.
Team Anna says they want a strong bill so that they want to punish the corrupt officials. What if I were to tell you, there are proof’s/stings of politicians and middlemen taking bribes on camera?
Well, I am no journalist, nor from any media background and the last thing, I am not attached to any political party. It’s disclaimer.
I want to know, what and how are you going to deal with them?
Now to give you proof’s, please hop on to Tehelka.com and you will find some stunning and shocking truth.
I happened to go over, the Godhra Coverage and the Operation West End.
One simple google search on the same, and you will find tons of articles and interviews of Tarun Tejpal and wikipedia entries of the same.
After going over each one of them, I feel Team Anna has just wasted theirs and nation’s time.
If they would have known how the powerful people in delhi corridor’s react on such corruption issues, and what extent they went behind people exposing it, they would have never expected the elected representatives to pass a strong lokpal bill.
And, guess what happen’s to people who are caught in bribery? Well, is there any other “India’s Upcoming Hero’s Award lined up?”
My curiosity lingers me to raise few doubts about the media itself. I wonder why no one picked up these stories in main stream media? Television debates? Why was anna fast covered?
So that brings me to suggest, this nation of 100 crore+ people, my simplest solution to end corruption in India.
Instead of wasting time, money and energy in organizing, attending and travelling all cities to make people aware of the jan-lok-pal or jan-joke-pal, just raise power and money.
Bring in people who are powerful or can give money ( any amount) at their disposal and take all that money and power and invest in Tehelka 2.0
Let these good, daring and selfless folks at Tehelka 2.0 expose everyone and anyone who are corrupt and are county’s enemies. Then let loose media to follow up on these corrupt officials and finally, we can also do a candle light march ( that’s kinda in-thing now a days) to make sure guilty is punished.
That’s my solution. If you don’t have a better one, please get your cheques ready, should anyone decide to start a Tehelka again, we should be ready with boat loads of money and power.
Agree? Disagree? Feel free to express your solutions in the comments section.
With love,
One Among The Mango People.

Back from Home…Back to Work!!!
Okay, I am back from home, had good time 🙂 Will write about the trip soon
Now, getting back to work.
Btw, check out this video song, its from Beatles, Imagine. Its awesome. Beautiful lyrics and touching music. Njoy Maadi 😀
Lyrics of the song:
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today…
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace…
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world…
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

India Still an IT giant? Lifting Website data from Singapore.
Delhi Police has “lifted” website structure, data, content and even Images 😦 from Singapore’s police website.
This news was first broken by NDTV on Saturday.
It is shame to see things like this happen, specially when the world considers India as a IT destination?
If they were desperate to get some simple HTML pages done with text and images, least they could have dropped me mail. Than doing this HOLY shit.
I guess it wouldnt be completely wrong to say that Delhi Police has done what Software Engineers in India do it on a daily basis.
Some of the “HOT” quotes from Delhi Police website.
”With the increasing number of bombing incidents around the world, no country including Singapore can take safety for granted.”
And just in case there’s a biological attack and you get anthrax, there’s no need to panic.
The website says: In Singapore, the SCDF, Police, Ministry of Health and Singapore Post have taken precautionary measures to deal with this threat.

First Lady President with Crime Records. Applause!!!
India’s first Lady president, OOops Sonia’s Joke to Nation, Ooops a social-pest, Again I forgot Criminal too. Meet Mrs.Prathibha Patil.
I guess we should raise funds to buy Sonia & Co to buy a televisions, so that they atleast hear, see and understand that the candidate they are supporting has a background!!!!
Newspapers, Media, television everything is flooding of Mrs.Patil’s balcklist activities.
Why are they doing such things? Keep some respect for the Man, whom she is replacing.
Bloddy Politics they just want all uneducated people to fill the seats.
Openings in Indian Politics:
Qualifications, all are mandatory:
1. NO education
2. Crime record
3. Media full of black activities
4. Support from fellow illiterates “Sonia”, “Manmohan”
Shit, we Indians should hang our heads in shame for having such a lady as President.
You can read the complete “History-Geography-Biography” of this lady here
https://www.knowpratibhapatil.com/9/ptotal-new.pdf
I hear that people have self-respect, dignity and morale values in life, Mrs.Patil are you aware of any of these words? If yes, please resign.

Myers Briggs Personality Type: Whts ur Type???
Heard of Myers Briggs Personality Type? If not, dont panic, even I heard and came to know about it today morning after Winslie’s mail.
I was surprised that such tests can really help you understand your self better and so does others can also.
It deals with ones psychological ability to think. Everyone has there own unique way to think and approach but when your planning for team work, everyones Personality Type comes into picture.
I also felt that, these TYPEs can also change with age, work, environment and other factors. Its about how you see things in different conditions and situtations. Though some people may resist this change.
I must admit that in India, this practice is yet to mature. Yes, some companies take Psychological tests but then it’s about the same meaning in different contexts.
My Personality type : ESTJ
You can read more about it Here. You can even take a free Personality Test.

Technology Threats???
Have you even imagined that the benefits we are taking of Technology even the terrorist can take?
Imagine how dangerous it can be?
Cyber police says, it can trace the emails sent, scan them and then identify the anti-social elements.
Anti-Social #1[Place 1]: Writes the message in the email/blog and saves it without sending.
Anti-Social #2[Place 2]: Opens with same userID and Password, reads the same saved message and logs Off.
What can the police do in such a situation?
This sure may sound, simple but trust me it can prove very costly and deadly as well.
Any thoughts??? views??? suggestions???

Sena heated up over SNS(orkut)!!!
Before you read this article, I would appreciate if you can read my previous post Here.
I was going through a Daily Newspaper, The Times of India, 12th june edition, in the front-page an article quoting ” Sena Cubs are part of target website”, Which was written in the context of Shiv-sena’s attacking some cyber cafes to protest against Social Networking site, Orkut.com.
Shiva Sena’s attacks were due to some posts/articles on orkut quoting wrong about Shiva Sena supremo, Bal Saheb Thackery and his party.
What’s the point in attacking cyber cafes? Orkut is run by those people.
One more interesting fact is that, the “cubs” of shiv sena have their profiles and more than hundred friends on orkut.
Why dont they break computers at their home, rather than cyber cafes?
I was wondering, if this is going to be the mentality, soon sites like Desimartini, yaari.com etc will have treat and also causing treat to wanna-bes.
Check out the article in the newspaper here.

Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates: After 24 years, again!!!
I have question at the bottom of the post: Drop your comments!!!
Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates: After 24 years, again!!!
To create a new standard, it takes something that’s not just a little bit different, it takes something that’s really new and really captures people’s imagination and the Macintosh, of all the machines I’ve ever seen, is the only one that meets that standard.”
–Microsoft founder Bill Gates, 1984
If I were running Apple, I would milk the Macintosh for all it’s worth–and get busy on the next great thing. The PC wars are over. Done. Microsoft won a long time ago.”
–Steve Jobs, 1996
As far as I have read, it was in year 1983 when these two icons came together, then young, aggressive and visionaries, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates again met during the D conference.
For some reason, I have always been a big fan of Steve Jobs. I know, he knows and so does everyone knows, he cant sit and code nor can he design!!!
But, then it takes guts, to visualize a product, the beauty, the impact and above all the market and then RUDELY get the work done.
One thing about Apple and Steve jobs is that they think what MSFT cannot. They think innovation. They think beauty. They think creativity.
I would like all my readers to read the novel named “ICON” on Steve Jobs. His autobiography.
For now, you people enjoy this interview Here.
It has links for podcats, live blogging, and videos as well. Enjoy.
Now, time for some mind-tickling!!!
After the rumors of MSFT + Yahoo being false. Why not Apple + Google?
Imagine the future war as Tag-Team wars!!!
MSFT/Yahoo or Apple/Google. Which one would you prefer to be winner?
Being a Lil’ Patiently Aggressive!!!
Yes, Thats my state of mind now and will be for sometime. Today, 6th June 2007. I have learned a new way of living bit relaxingly.
Success as they say, will not come over night, takes continous hard work!!!! Its not a matter of “Chance”.
Lets see, how much will it take for me.
I would love to share it with you folks, but you know its better to practice before preaching!!! Thats what I will be doing for next 6 months.
I guess, if things start working out the way I am planning, I promise to share with you all as well.
