Steven Wilson: on listening to a broad range of... →
As a person who has an appetite for all kinds of music, this echoed exactly what I feel.
“I think people are surprised by that (the fact that Wilson listens to ABBA) and they kind of smirk when you say it and I’m not joking (laughs). These guys, yes, they wrote cheesy pop music compared to say, the serious music of Frank Zappa and King Crimson, but they did it at the very highest...

2012
I’ve not really read any Neil Gaiman, but I felt it was necessary to share this amazing new year wish by him. Among all the new year quotes, resolutions etc. (y’know, the usual) that’ve been floating around, this one caught my eye. And it would probably be the way I’d like my 2012 to be.
“I hope you will have a wonderful year, that you’ll dream dangerously and...

Eric Stromberg: Keeping Users Logged In →
estromberg:
It’s no secret that a logged in user is more valuable to a company than a logged out user. A user must be logged in to receive a truly personalized experience, be a content producer, or make a purchase. The beauty of mobile is that once a user connects to an application, they are always logged…

Mike Monteiro On The Stream Design Of Google+ Vs.... →
parislemon:
I know it’s completely subjective, but I really prefer uniformity of Twitter’s design over what Google+ is doing. To me, Google+ is interesting, but at first glance it looks like chaos.
When you give people the ability to have different sized areas for things, I find that they tend to go bigger because YELLING gets you noticed more than whispering. What’s great about Twitter is...

Return of the mostly-harmless ninja cat.
*peeps in*
*dusts off the cobwebs from dead blog*
Hello, Tumblr. I am back. And hopefully this time I’m going to stay.
My inability to maintain a blog really shocks me considering the fact that I’m always complaining about the 140 character limit of twitter. But now that Namrata’s started a Tumblr Blog (and hopefully Sruthy too) - I have incentive to stay here.
Tumblr, You have...

ROFL.
I’ve religiously followed Alex Blagg since I discovered him a few months back. If you like tech-humour, trust me, you should too.

I may be tipping my hand here, and letting you go a little too deep inside my bag of strat tricks, but I want to talk about a powerful tactic for making something viral out of nothing.

More useless business ideas →
Life’s been getting pretty busy nowadays with our new course (New Venture Creation) picking up pace.
New Venture Creation, as the name most obviously suggests, teaches you how to make a VC pitch-worthy business plan out of a startup idea. Not having my own idea as of yet, I was looking for a team to join. I had just one criteria — I’m not joining a “this for that”...
