Blogger Meet part2

Well as mentioned I finally decided to go the Blogger's meet at Santacruz. It takes around 1hr to reach to santacruz(for the blogger's meet) from Nerul. I decided to catch bus from Nerul to Santacruz.

The bus service is provided by our very own BEST. I really must appreciate the service they provide. First and foremost is the cost, its dirt cheap. From minimum Rs.3/ticket to Rs.45/ticket approximately. Plus they have bus service from any damn corner of Mumbai and Navi Mumbai. The route design is fantastic. Now on this TWO stars there is a THIRD start. It is the one day pass concept. During your first journey in the bus just take a Rs.20 ticket, and you can roam around Mumbai and Navi Mumbai with the same ticket "N" number of times.

Seeking this advantage I thought of getting into bus, utilizing my ticket. Bus number 507 goes directly from Nerul to Santacruz (Pinstorm Cafe : Blogger's Meet). I was waiting for say around 10 minutes and came a bus numbered 511 which is for a different destination named Mulund(where I live), but has half of the route same. With not wasting the time furthur I got ON the bus. But that was not my destiny. Cutting the story short(as it is not the main topic, but Bloggers Meet) it took me 2hours to reach to Santacruz where the Blogger's Meet was scheduled. I reached at the Pinstorm Cafe, Santacruz, for teh Blogger's Meet, at around 7:15.

Actually speaking they where not having any Agenda on mind for that days Blogger's meet. Coincidently I, and even many of us asked for the Agenda. All came to the conclusion that now on we should have a Agenda decided before hand. So when I reached they where discussing about how to setup a website for Mumbai Bloggers which was conceptualized by Dinesh. Plus how should we go about promoting the site and the Blogging culture. Frankly speaking nothing much came out. Following are the minutes of meeting:

Take home message ----

1.The site has to be redesigned n restructured. (Ronak and DInesh)

2.Promotion of the site so as to develop this community and create awareness about the word Blogging.

3.Involve famous bloggers like Tarun and internet marketeers (blogcamp gang) so as to have a better coverage.


4.Use services of colleges and few startups around to create awareness at the ground level. 5.Get maximum inputs from blogosphere to promote this community. (compiled by Vivek K)


But this was not it, we had some good networking session, with Samosas, Tang, Biscuits and IPL Semi Finals(superb Combination HA!)

Blogger's Meet

So the day starts, some how I wake up at 7:30 in the morning, time to go to office..................
Shuckssssssssssss its Saturday man, yeah!!! I know its saturday and I have to go to office. Dunno know who came out with the concept of working on alternate Saturdays. Anyways no point on cribbing till the Green Bills are coming in every month end........

I got this message from Dinesh (dinesh who?) well he is a one blogger man. Very active on blog circuit and Barcamp too. Ok back to the message, that there is a bloggers meet an unofficial one on Saturday 31st May. The venue was Pinstorm Cafe thanks to Netra Parekh.

So I and one of my friends decided to go to this meeting. My friend Prasad Narulkar is also hard core blogger. We discussed a lot whether to go to the Blogger's meet or not. Since the venue was very far from our place. We postponed the decision to go to the Blogger's meet till Saturday evening.............

Goooooooooooooood Morning mumbai was my state when I got up at 7:30am. Trying to rationale why Office on saturday, but Bloggers meet was the motivation......To gove some background currently I am under going my summer internship @ IndiaInfoline a stock broking firm....... I had to collect form from my perspective clients in the morning before i reach to office. So I did that, but it was already 11:00 am, and I was running late to office. One of my friends also promised me an account of Demat and Trading. So I reached office did some formalities to complete the form submission. To collect the second form I had to go to Nerul, but the Blogger' meet was still in my mind. The only thing now stopped me was how am I supposed to go to Santacruz from Nerul. So again I called Prasad whether it was possible for him for the Blogger's meet. Unfortunately he told me that he was in a bad situation at his office @ Vikhroli and could not make for the Blogger's meet...............

So finally I decided to go to the Blogger's meet alone. What happened in the meet, check out the second Part

Summers ON - part2

Well readying the earlier story you people may feel that I am in a complaining mood, but not actually................. Its the first time that I am facing such kind of scenario..................Well no issues, from my side taking it very sportingly....................... Being a fresher I do not expect more from a job, and that too seeing my classmates profiles, there is no change in mine too.......................Its rally very exiting as such, acting like a hard core Sales guy trying anything on this earth to get clients and the feeling the so called "TARGETS" heat...........................Its really a competitive scenario out there, especially when the most booming industry is the Financial Service industry...............And I forgot to mention I am working in one such company, not working exactly but doing my summer internship............................

.Will be sharing the over all learning I inferred.

Summers ON

Yeah really this time I can feel the heat of summers......................By that I mean two things........................
First this time the summers are really really very hot.........................I mean its unbearable to be precise.............
Without the help of anything thing the water from the Tap comes out lukewarm........................The floor and the walls of the rooms emit heat...........................Its like anti living conditions in our homes and out of our homes..................

The second reason is probably more highlighting...............................Here highlighting is done with UV rays, thanks to the SUN...........................Coming back to the second reason, is my Summer Internship.....................
Thankfully and as our Profs and Director told, I got sales as my initial job....................... Woooooooooooooow how lucky I am.......................Doing Mumbai darshan in this boiling temperature......................... Can you guys just imagine the temperature here is 32 C during Morning hours..................................

the story will continue
