My dear APPLE


APPLE is celebrating its victory against the Samsung group and getting all set to launch their new product.

My dear APPLE

So are you done celebrating your victory? Oh and are you done counting the coins :P ?

Samsung surely got a blow with the court decision of $1.05 billion but does that mean you won the case against android? Apple, I believe that it was a sad day for you too.Taking the path of litigation is something that companies which are out of sync with the market do - Not cool for your stature. Yes, it protects your assets and IP but still it just made you look like a bully at least to few people.

I know this might upset a lot of people, but let me make one thing clear – I love apple - All that it does and has done. I believe that the kind of revolution that this brand has brought about is just insane! *bows head in respect for Steve Jobs*

Instead of out innovating everyone else, as you always have, you have now signaled to the world that probably you are running out of kick ass ideas. Sure, you have amazing patents in the mobile world but spending all your energy in fighting cases just leaves you with less energy and zeal for innovation. So just stop it, apple… Go and build those things that everyone dies to own. Go back to extreme innovation and move faster than Samsung – simple!

You can always be confident that your technology has set such high standards that it is difficult for any existing technology to reach there anytime soon. You just have to concentrate on taking it higher and there is just no need to bother about the rest – because you RULE!

I know I am no one to tell. I know you will not listen to me. But still… you could shift gears. There is definitely room for both iOS and Android. You have been doing really well financially up to now, right?

Sincerely
A fan..

Holding hands through changing contexts

 A few years ago, my two friends and I bonded over snacks and chat during our recess at school. Each of us struggled with different types of math problems, we had different dreams to chase, and we struggled with different challenges. Then one day we took off to different places to chase our dreams. Of course, we made promises to stay in touch; we shed tears because we thought we can’t live without each other, and we made our parents promise us national roaming plans so that we could talk our hearts out. Fast forward – more than a decade later - multiple milestones, wins, and falls later – we three managed to transcend and keep it together. Technology nurtured our bond and it worked fine. Then one day, we decided to take some time to catch up in person in another country. It was a dream and fortunately, it was simply beautiful. On reflecting upon my experience of being part of a close group for so many years, I penned down a few things before and after the trip – BEFORE When we ...

Motion in Emotion - It is for a reason

Over the years, I have observed that doing extraordinary things is sometimes a little easier than doing the ordinary and necessary. We often deliver projects well or achieve more than our target for the month but would not have managed to make our bed, cook our meal or take a walk. In the literal sense, extraordinary is that which needs a little extra but looks like we're living in a time where the extra is what the ordinary tasks require.  Over the last decade, health has been a portfolio where I've tried to invest consistently. My personal experiences within the family, watching some near one's bargain for more time and witnessing some hitting the finish line, have been growing on me steadily. Even in the most casual conversations, when I hear a statement or comment where the body and life we have is taken for granted, it gets me restless and sad.  I always embraced routine and the ordinary. It genuinely helps me even through the days when my extraordinary plans don't...

Life lessons from everyday things – By the sink

Off late, there is so much banter around the heat. This year, the summer has pushed us all to sweat it out without having to really sweat it out. After every such conversation, I think of the summers while I was growing up. I mean, we grew up in the Middle East so the “we know how hot it can get” sort of attitude does come across subtly!  These seasons change the nitty-gritty of our everyday life in such a significant manner, though we don’t really notice most of it. The summer was harsh where we grew up – like so hot. We were privileged enough to not experience the brunt of it with the comfort of moving into air-conditioned facilities. However, some things screamed summer and made life difficult. Picture this: exposed pipes running through our house like fiery serpents, heating up the water as it made its way from tank to tap. It's like the water itself was trying to stage a rebellion against our attempts to stay cool. The time it stays in the pipeline, it just heated up all the m...
