Whenever you go to a conference you get doubts. Questions like the following arise Will it be worth the drive? Will I learn something new? What will be the quality of speakers? Can time be spent in something more useful?  But still the open mind pushes you along and tells Just go and chill If nothing more you will breathe the ashram air So I do arrive on a beautiful Sunday morning wading through the kanakpura traffic. There were few traffic snarls as one bully mini-truck brushed the back of a poor motor biker. At the ashram gate, waving the teachers card, swooned inside. After lots of pain and with support from spouse and kids I found the printers power cord. The invitation to the international bloggers conference was printed. At Vishalaksmi Mantap, the reception simply ignored the printout and waved for me to jump in inside. +Khurshed Batliwala  (Bawa from here on) was already on the stage.

A unique exposure. A unique game. A noisy venue. The day started with car washer taking away the car keys but not returning them in time. I had to scout for him in Brigade Gardenia campus. One of his supporting staff had the key. When I got into the car, suddenly he appeared from nowhere.

The day was Sunday 3rd April 2011, fresh from India World cup Cricket Victory. No one in embassy golf links knew where Microsoft Signature Building was.  Parked the car in basement.

So got a chance to hear Sharad Sharma, a pleasant speaker who insisted that we were in cusp of another IT revolution in India. Here is our chance to grab it and live it. Did you know that Indian Angel Network is a group of ind...

Image via Wikipedia Startup saturday is organized by headstart.in on every second saturday of every month for the past few years. Headstart.in is a great initiative by a group of go-getters about few years back. The venue is mostly a conference room in IIMB bangalore as the initiative is supported by NSR Cell. I have soaked my hands in freelancing for about a year and felt qualified to attend such a meet. My nerves betray me when I try to get social. This time I was adamant to push my luck. I have been alone for so many days. No team in physical form around. Social isolation . Lost connection with regular job goers and their pristine topics. Facebook was constructing their social graphs and what was I doing here in isolation?. A man alone in single island is good for a few days but then you need to ride the dolphin/shark/whale based on your luck and your accompanying stars. And I bit the social bullet and here are few glimpses. If you are not used to it then it could ...
