Were you waiting for 2009?

// January 1st, 2009 // No Comments » // Personal

Hi!

I know I have not been regular on the blog.  I blog about my irregularity in every alternate irregular post of mine :D . As you may have figured out, I am a lazy ass when it comes to blogging.

Now, don’t expect me to write in resolutions that I will blog in 2009. I don’t want to write resolutions on paper which I am not sure I would be able to maintain. But yeah, I will definitely blog when I feel like doing it, and it could be regular :D

OK. First let me wish you a very Happy New Year ahead.

Happy New Year 2009

Happy New Year 2009

So 2008 is officially gone now. There was something about the year. It was highly eventful. A lot happened and among the so many other things what I would like to talk about is the numerous terrorist attacks in the country. What was different in the last one was that it affected the high-society and hence the remembrance of it by the society and the government has been pretty long. What needs to be seen is how much action happens and how many things change due to this remembrance.

On the personal front, 2008 was looong. I completed my engineering, joined a job, left it and even started up on my own. My new company’s name is Digital Canvas. It is going to be the banner under which I wish to launch a couple of my ideas that have been evolving but rotting in my mind since I was in my final year. And, on the forefront, the company offers design & development services for the web and print media. My specialisation in Wordpress also carries on to the list of the company’s services.

Fine. So, were you waiting for 2009? I was. With hopes for the recession to flow out and terrorism to be eradicated among other things. Here’s a list of top 10 things you might be interested in, that my friend Anupam Gupta wants not to happen in 2009.

Now, this wasn’t lethargy

Lethargy? No. This was not my blog lethargy again.

I got malaria that perfectly encapsulated BarCampMumbai4. I got into the hospital on Friday & out of it on Monday, and the barcamp was on Saturday and Sunday. :( I was really enthusiastic about this one, but this was the ‘vidhi ka vidhaan’ so cannot help it. Now I can only wait for the BCM5 planning to start.

Too many rumours and too much hype about the iPhone

// July 29th, 2008 // No Comments » // Gadgets, Personal, Technology, iPhone

I agree Tech 2.0 is big and can be relied upon. It is the one which triggered the news about iPhone 3G launching on 18th of August by Vodafone. But the grapevine, as notorious as it is supposed to be, has added all sorts of rumours about its price.

But it is for sure that if the iPhone does launch for the price of 12,000, I would really consider buying it, but only after I find out a bit more about the data plans that are going to be attached to it.

I eagerly await Vodafone’s & Airtel’s press releases to tell us more about the iPhone in India. That would decide the fate of the phone that would reach into my hands. ;)

The Randomness of Randomness

// July 10th, 2008 // 2 Comments » // Life, Personal

Hi,

This is Mitesh Ashar. I’m a fresh computer engineer from Mumbai University about to get into the professional world as a Software Engineer for Convonix.

I used to earlier blog at The Webbie, and I was not really regular on it. I had also attempted to give the blogger in me a rebirth, but alas, The Webbie could not live long.

The Randomness of Randomness is the birth of a new blogger in me, which I hope shall live longer.

On RoR, I intend to express about any random thing I think about or come across. My thoughtscope and the people I meet, indicate that all of this random stuff is going to probably be about technology(from web to software to a lot more), entrepreneurship, life, etc.

So, I hope I do let the blogger in me nurture this time.
