Hope you had a good new yrs. Love to Jr and regards to you and the Mrs.
Oh, I hope item # 2 never makes news ever again, except maybe to say that he's retiring from politics completely.
Anyway, wish you and your family a peaceful 2009 :)
Red and Shalom - Thanks so much for your wishes, and wish you and your loved ones the same!
Bombay Addict, this is an interesting blog. do get urself Tell-a-Friend, a sharing widget http://ad.vu/hvkf
I think your second wish will get major support. Today morning itself I was wishing that our media will ignore the guy but seems like his PR team is already in overdrive ... sighhh.
I don't see Raj disappearing from public space any time soon. He has some really dedicated people and an amazing speech writer.
10th one I second :)
Hi,
I was reading ur blog posts and found some of them to be very good.. u write well.. Why don't you popularize it more.. ur posts on ur blog ‘Bombay Diaries’ took my particular attention as some of them are interesting topics of mine too;
BTW I help out some ex-IIMA guys who with another batch mate run www.rambhai.com where you can post links to your most loved blog-posts. Rambhai was the chaiwala at IIMA and it is a site where users can themselves share links to blog posts etc and other can find and vote on them. The best make it to the homepage!
This way you can reach out to rambhai readers some of whom could become your ardent fans.. who knows.. :)
Cheers,
Ray
Well, for some reason, I feel like disagreeing on one point!
Twitter will NOT be acquired in 2009. It'll grow by leaps and bounds and find a very sustainable business model. That's what will happen in 2009. Maybe, acquisition will be a year later :)
