Category: Personal Reflections

I won’t be in Delhi from 7th July 2008 to 16th July 2008, so there won’t be any posts from me during this while. Other authors may keep contributing, but I don’t think I will be posting stuff. Off on vacation. Hey, which gives me a great idea. I could use this occassion to try and de-addict myself from tech. So maybe I shouldn’t carry my phone either, although Airtel has reduced the rates now a lot (tempting…). Had the Pan-Delhi Geeks’ Meet today, ’twas quite fun! Thanks to all the people who turned up, including the alumni; and a special thanks to Mukesh sir for helping in organizing this. Lot of stuff to write, including the meet, but that will be after I come back. You’d probably have heard the story on other blogs by then. 🙂

…er, sort of. I mean, Anuj Bhardwaj was already on author on this blog – you might remember some of his articles posted earlier, say the one on Titan Rain. He’ll be making his own post soon about the shift. Anyway, thing is, he chose to discontinue his blog because of personal reasons – but his blog had some really good content. It would really be sad if that all that was lost. Even though in certain cases my beliefs are different from those of his – say, on open source, Apple-worship, or the OLPC – I’ll be the first one to admit that everyone has a right to their own beliefs (if they are well-argued out). 🙂 So I decided to, with his permission, to re-publish his content here. It’s quite a lot of content, so I’ll be ‘releasing’ it slowly so that the RSS feed doesn’t get overloaded. It’ll take some time, but everything will be available again on the WWW. Sad though that the interesting comment-discussions won’t be available, but they’re safely archived – just that it’s best not to spend time manually copying comments back online.

So then, welcome aboard, Anuj. 🙂
