The Latest Buzz from Google
Feb 12th
Welcome to Google Buzz
Our very own King Google brings in one more fabulous service. Recently, the Gmail account holders must have come across the new social-media service by Google – Google Buzz. I’m here to share my thoughts about it, and later in the post, I’ll be telling some ways to customize it and use it. I’ll also share a trick, which can help you to opt-out from the email updates of buzz, which may have started to clutter-up your inbox.
According to my belief, Google Buzz is is ready to set benchmark in terms of Social Media Marketing. I bet that Google is trying to incorporate a large number of people for Google Buzz. It has already taken a giant leap by inviting the existing Gmail users as part of the Buzz Community, which is a very good start for them. It is better than other social media in a way that it is backed by G-power such as Picassa for photo uploads, Youtube for videos, and what more..
Social Networking is blown to pieces now?

People who spend maximum of their internet time on social networking sites are the ones who are destroying it the most. A person who creates his first profile at orkut (or any other Social Networking site) keeps it very clean, and types his profile info and scraps very clearly. Then he spends some time there, sees the profile of their friends, and destroys his language, and the simplicity of the profile.
Happy New Year to all
Dec 31st
Finally, the year’09 is coming to an end and this would be my last post in blogosphere for this year. However, I do hope that next year this beautiful tradition would continue. 2009 has seen loads of highs and lows. I just hope that the new year brings prosperity, love and good luck in our lives.
But right now all I can think about is the extent to which I will party on New Year’s Eve. I’m sure that the whole world is having a rocking night planned with friends, family and loved ones. I pray that everybody parties to their heart’s content, but they do remember to be safe this New Year.

Promote yourself as a brand through Google
Nov 22nd
Do you understand the real power of ‘Google’ now-a-days? Do you know that your name could become a brand name in itself? D you promote this brand name? What do the people find when they put your name in the Google search box?
Just look at the results for my name. The first page of Google Results for my name is dominated by me. All links are related to me in some way or the other, with none of those which will earn me a negative reputation from someone.

My comments on Shashi Tharoor’s comments
Sep 21st
Before starting this, let me clear one thing that I’m not a big Shashi Tharoor fan. But, I follow him on Twitter and hence, I was one of those, who were obliged (?) to get the comments from the source itself. At that time, I hadn’t thought that tweet would make such a row.

It can happen sometimes, that you get more than what you bargained for. Well, actually, I didn’t do any bargain, but, yeah, I luckily got more than what I had paid for. And the additional that I got, was priceless.
