Happy birthday to you, The number of candles you blew, And the number a years that flew All the strength that you drew And the happiness you knew All the old things and new The love you found so true The dreams you did pursue Coffee and chocolate fondue The white hue and morning dew All these makes you get through Thirty two years in the que Happy birthday to you

change.gov

Obama’s team has launched a new website change.gov which would document and inform people on the agenda items and ask people for their feedback and ideas on how to run the country (or at least some aspects of it). It has a blog with videos and you could even apply for a job. The transparency of his team and campaign is just absolutely astonishing. He is open with his ideas and even more open to idea contribution from people in general. If what he is doing is well harnessed then he would be able to achieve the wisdom of crowds . Its probably the first time idea collaboration for political reasons at a large scale. He is surely a very technological forward president and he has been doing all the right things to tap into this source of information, knowledge and people power. It would be interesting to see what will happen and change once he steps into office in January.

Is this Life?

Many times I think sitting in my office cubicle, "Is this life for me?". Having a high end desktop and a phone to do my job, Is this the only job for me in my life? Sometimes yes, because I have been trained to do this kind of job, Sometimes no when I think about my dream to have my independent business. When I was exploring the TATA NEN site, I came across different types of successful ideas, which seems to be very silly at the first sight. http://www.hotteststartups.in/coolestStartupHome.do?method=fetch&businessFn=homePageRecentNominations
