SImplicity


As I was watching England play Ghana in the soccer worldcup, it suddenly dawned on me....

The best and most popular things in life are simple.

Football is revered around the world for its simplicity of rules (ok i am discounting the offside rule, wonder why they had it??!!). Doesnt make one reach to the rule book for Power Plays, Hitting outside the line, LBW et al......

Google became the bestest site on the internet crowded by a zillion websites by simplifying the art of finding information. So simple that you and I can use it without being a boolean bozo.

If only we extend this to simplify our lives to a few things that we like to do and are good at.

Moral of the story as you have supper watching soccer....simplify yourself!

Wireless broadband

I write this not sitting in swivel chair, crouching to reach my keyboard but reclining ony couch watching TV, chatting with my dad.

Ladies and gentlemen, behold the pleasures of being on a wireless broadband.

8 years back when I started my online life my only net access was in crowded cybercafes where the next man seemed more interested in what is happening to my screen than his!

Gosh, we have come a long way. Wireless access on your laptop at break neck speed from govt. owned BSNL is something even the most optimistic minded yours truly wudnt have envisaged!

Well progress happens so seamlessly that occasionally there are moments like these which hit you and your face and says...

"the future is already here"
