Written on 7:16 PM by nitesh

Other day I was browsing through the ibnlive.com and found out this video of FM at ISB.
After watching the video it brought me alive the memories of the 100FM which we used to have in college . It started in 2nd year and I became an RJ after 6 months ( we bunch of friends decided to give it a go) , It used to be a lot of fun because we went there with a purpose of to enjoy ourselves not with the prupose of making others laugh. Show timings was 11.00pm to 12.00 midnight which is normally the prime time in college. Me with my friends go there in the Radio room , on our way we used to collect as many of friends to join use, till reaching the radio room we were normally 6-8 budding RJ's , ready for the show. As we donot follow the practice of preparing for the show so dk and chakku would open 2-3 mails of PJ's forwarded by people , this would start long comments like ' arj kiya hai ' ................................... waah waah what ever the PJ be but waah was said with full josh and vigour . We were lucky to have a great actor amongs us dk who can do mimicary of any artist , using his talent we would start a mock interview with nana , sharukh etc . Sachin would do his normal ulti-sidhi acts , don't get angry with me sachin. And out main targets during the shows used to be changu mangu , i would not reveal the details. These kind of fun filled activities widen your mind , let you think from some other perspective. Gone are those days.........



Though I have embd the ibnlive video still (the video might not show up) Video Link .

iPhone In iPod Out ??

Written on 5:14 PM by nitesh

"Today we're introducing three revolutionary products," Jobs said moments before unveiling the device. "A new iPod, a phone and an internet communicator. These are not three separate devices -- we call it the iPhone."
Steve Jobs finally put an end to the months of speculations .



Nobody guessed the design of the ipone right , there is no button touch and use, wide screen ipod. As expected from Apple sleek and slim . iPhone is awsome combination of phone , music device ipod with touch screen and blackberry like internet communication device. But does it mean days of ipod are numbered when Apple will launch iPhone Nano and iPhone Shuffle in near future . I feel may be in america days are numbered but there are other markets to be captured like India and China.
And since we can use any song as ringtone so who will pay some dollars to use xyz song as ringtone , another implication is days of ringtones companies are numbered.

So Nokia and Motorola start reducing your prices

The iPhone will be available in June exclusively from Cingular Wireless, at a price of $500 for a 4-GB model and $600 for an 8-GB model with a two-year service contract.

Written on 10:21 AM by nitesh


Here is another search engine battling out to lower google's share in the market. ChaCha is different from the other search engines out there like google, snap in a unique way. The engine has two options for searching :
  • simple searching
  • searching with real time guide.

When we search with a guide our query is sent to a person who is skilled/knowledgable in that particular field so that we can get the results we want . Our query is sent out to the thousands of guides out there and any one picks up our query if it is meaningful not words like 'jkads'.


When a guide is selected we can chat with the guide. Guide will talk to us for as long as we like. ChaCha indexes all the questions that are asked and associates them with the search engines and resources used by Guides, and the links visited by the users, ChaCha knows where to look and what the best human-approved resources are for each question or topic.

When one can enjoy gourmet meals , do laundry , get an oil massage , play , swim while in office who would like to to go home from office. This is what happens to the employees of the google. Google made its debut at the number one position on the Fortune 10th 100 best companies to work for. With just 8 years into existence google has got hundreds of people eying to work at the company , google receives 1300 resumes a day. Google will surpass $10 billion in sales for 2006.

Today's workplace is better in these respects according to http://www.greatplacetowork.com:

  • It's more of a learning environment.
  • It's more diverse in terms of female and minority representation.
  • It's more supportive of employees raising a family.
  • It's more democratic in terms of employee stock ownership.
  • It's more open in terms of communication upwards and downwards.

Other Software companies in the lsit are Cisco(11), Yahoo(44), Microsoft(50), strange point is there is no Apple.
