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..

my idea of Magical Acting Moments

When someone came up with  a list of  '50+ things only a Proud Mallu will understand', the first on list was a photo of Mohanlal with the caption - 'This man is part of your daily life. Literally!’ That says it all. Even after a series of uninspiring movies, how his brilliance on screen continues to leave so many in admiration.  So this particular post will cater to a smaller group. To be specific – malayalis and those who follow Malayalam cinema. To be a little more specific – malayalis who likes the actor in Mohanlal. I thought when I say he is my personal favourite, I should be able to pick some screen moments that made me a lalettan fan!   Here's a look back at some of the magical acting moments - my most favorite ones - from a career that has entertained , enlightened and amazed us for last 30+ years. 10.

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 ...

Metro Man

I spent my last five months in an architectural firm in ahmedabad and was mainly involved in the upcoming metro rail project of the city . This is when I read more about the transportation network in India and came across a lot of interesting details. In this process, I learnt more about one man who by the virtue of his hard work and dedication brought comfort to Indians – E. Sreedharan – true icon of our times! 56 successive years, in a single job, without a break – but barely anyone talking about him. Is it simply because, Dr Sreedharan, is not a typical Indian Success Story? As in, he is not an IITian nor is he from an IIM. He is not from a minority community. He did not study under street lamps. He did not milk cows to pay for his schooling. He is neither an actor nor a singer. Oh and he is not a cricketer! He was just a simple middle class Indian, who went about his job – the man who probably contributed the most to our infrastructure and that too silen...
