Life is meant to be well punctuated; explain the semicolon, take a break with coma, emote the exclamation mark and obviously a full stop to put an end.
Most of u must have come across the poll question below as a frwd msg but sometime back when it was forwarded to me I didn’t take it as hoax. I discussed this my frnds and put this up as a poll at Delhibloggers grp also. Now I wanna know wht most of the ppl out here think bout this. Hope to explore more. And here it goes…
“A 10yrs old boy had eaten panipuri about 15days ago and fell sick, later when he had his health check done doctors diagnosed that he had AIDS. His parents couldn’t believe it…? Then the entire family under went a checkup none of them was suffering from that. The doctors checked with the boy if he had eaten out? And the boy says he had panipuri one evening. The hospital team went there to check. They found the panipuri seller had a cut on his finger while cutting the onions, and his blood had spread in the food. When they had his blood checked… the guy was suffering from AIDS but he himself was not aware.”
It was on 6th May at Indian Habitat Centre, I attended the much awaited DB meet. It was really nice to meet up all the fellow bloggers frm virtual to real world. It was XI meet of grp, but frst for me. This time Julian Siddle and Bill Thompson all the way from London.
Julian is the producer of the BBC World Service Technology program Digital Planet. It’s a program about how technology affects our lives.
Julian was here in India to record a special edition of the program just about this splendid country. Culture of Blogs in India is an area Julian particularly looked at and is tried to find answers to questions like “Do you have a particular view on the use or effectiveness of your blogs? What do you think about the use of IT in India or its potential? The country is often seen as being in the grip of a technological boom, is this the case from your experience?”
Bill is one of Britain’s leading authorities on blogging and Net activism and advises the EU. He has a regular column at the BBC “Technology and You” website. Bill shared with us his expertise over the subject; Blogging and also Net activism. DBM BBC live coverage can be tuned in over here.
The turn up was above 30. We exchanged views on bloggin’ scenario in india and over the world. Though I was late by 50 mins by scheduled time 6 pm. After discussion and interview session, we moved to Ethopia(a restaurant)in IHC. There we had personal interactions with new and old bloggers.
Interestingly Amit Aggarwal, a blogger earns serious money thru his bloggin’. Coincidentally, a 360 blogger Amit Verma also turned up there. Samyukta, who blogs at many hubs includin’ 360, was among the one who organized all so well and got us all together. Priyanka, is the moderator of the DB grp, a nice warm gal again. Nidhi frm webchutney came over for a reality show named Oktatabyebye linked up with bloggin’. She shared a new concept on travel+bloggin’. Webchutney is running a contest to find one person to go around the country on a small budget and also blog about it as one travels. The eventual aim of this is to build a robust online travel forum/community in India. Amit Ken is the frst among the DB blogger grp, I got acquainted with, but somehow we missed to say “hello” to each other. And I met many more to share the experiences. >> More pics
So I had a nice real-time meet with bloggers in Delhi. Though I wish to meet up you all at the same time like this way. Hey I’m getting’ senti…
Its been ages since we evolved from our bare necessities to luxuries. Strivinâ for basic needs food, shelter and clothinâ hardly accomplish menâs happiness to live on.
Thatâs very true, this place called earth has enough to fulfill the needs of men but, canât really afford all the luxuries of men. When insensitivity creeps in for essentialities while acknowledging superfluity only; the civilization is certainly headinâ towards devastation.
What is the key to life if hearts are dry and just money commands?
