I <3 Social Media!
Today’s THE HINDU news paper contains an article about SRM University. I am really glad on how SRM makes into the news quiet often, an emerging tremendous success to its group. Before it used to be for wrong reasons, no more one could see them anymore. Every updates we see these days on SRM, shows a good future for students who are currently studying and for those who plan to join the University.
News Title: SRM University scholarships for toppers at district and State levels
Thats right, SRM University have made some interesting annoucments of offering scholarships for toppers in higher secondary level. Whilst some sense this as an act to attract (marketing technique) these top rank holders to their instution, you can notice the scholardhips are provided to students even if they opt-out of SRM! I couldn’t believe this for a second, but just refreshed the page (!!) and while it loaded back it was right!
The B!G day.. & am Missing it! The crowd… friends… staffs …. fellow students seen in “big black dress”..! Yeap.. its our official convocation day today on 30.03.2008! A day not-to-be forgetten by many and certainly by me. Today also witnessed the Day Light Saving change in UK timing, we have moved 1 hour forward as of today at 1:00 AM. The time we shall be following is GMT +1. I wish I was at Chennai attending the function, to the least catching up with old friends after a long break and chit chatting.. a unforgettable moment!
Thanks to Digital Technology, seems most of my friends have been carrying their Digital Camera & Camera Enabled Mobile Phones… sure to see some aww pictures and shots in my inbox sooner! Will update this post with them.
So does my Easter Holidays! A good season to have some fun, entertainment & getting together with friends..! Gosh.. been waiting for a break for last couple of days… the day starts with end of my second term in Post Graduation and start of Easter Holidays & BarCamp Brighton2 ! There has been a lot of updates with BarCamp Brighton, and few were interesting to have a read.. if you haven’t had a look I would suggest too! Had plans to do some presentation about TNP and help our pitching here from BarCamp Brighton, but I hope its not gonna happen.. the folks have been very busy with few projects which have been in delivery phase.. so no one had time to actually sit and work on getting it done! I am indeed missing a good oppurtunity though for pitching TNP in UK with Local Market!
Recent Updates from BarCamp Brighton 2:
Yahoo! Live is watching you…
Badges, Backnetwork and beer
Come and play LocoMatrix
Pitch your Start-Up to the Technology Guardian
Aye..(picked up this “cool” from few movies I been watching recently :P)… let me relax for few weeks…! Been busy and in bad health over the past few days.. hence nothing much to blog here! If you are attending BarCamp.. see you there 
!
Happy Easter Holidays!
A disapointing day indeed.. but the best part is I could understand something about myself! We had Information Technology Systems presentation, I choose a topic “Digital Age Enterprise“. I choose to talk about YouTube.com, the world’s popular Video Sharing site.. the reason was straight forward and simple… “Young and Simple” and yet powerful in terms of User base and traffic. I had plans to talk about Amazon, eBay, Google.. but these companies have been around us for a long time and every one knows about them as much I do! YouTube is a corporate product and a big business model which has high potential!
OMG! Sometimes I think is it really me doing these… but god hell.. indeed its me! Sleepless night…burning Days…to get them done..! The problem is that I push my work towards the edge of time.. and that causes the both said prior. Believe me or not, I did put some effort getting my course work and a presentation done in past few days.
I had to submit a Analysis in Amazon.com as my course work for Management for E-Commerce which indeed I surpassed my deadline and submitted towards the end of it. Taught me a good lesson to spend time learning about the Internet Ocean Amazon! And most importantly, I understand the value of getting it done within Deadline which gives the true output of effort we srtive to bring out!
LoL! Isn’t the first word which came to you when you saw the funky title for my ‘yet‘ another crazy post about me! The actual phrase as we all know is “Time and Tide wait for no one“, which means no one is so powerful that they can stop the march of time…! But what I wanted to mention here in the funny post is no one can stop the march of me and my timing (horrible!). It was a beautiful day just like other day at Brighton, got up very early and wanted to attend my classes in morning session (which I had been skipping for past two weeks!). It was 9 AM when I stepped out, whilst I had my class at 9…reached University at 9:10 AM but still had hopes to attend the session (sincere huh!).
Stepped in to lecture hall only to find a ‘Japanese’ lecturer taking a class that I had no clue what it was and looking at students, who weren’t bothered to see who was entered the class (probably sleeping?) and to my disappoint I couldn’t identify anyone… as there was a different lecture going on. Came out with frustration as I really wanted to attend the session on but it was a mess. I didn’t know what was happening around, rang my friend who keeps ending my call & no response to my text! I didn’t want go home as I was really interested in doing something productive (believe me!!). Moving towards Library…. planning what I will be doing there,… spend an hour or so reading articles from TechCrunch and other sites.
I don’t blog much these days.. I guess laziness has grown up too much within me and captured me. But hope this change is not for a long. Everything around me has changed so much… and I should be too! One of my best college buddy Joseph Raymond came up with one of the best emotional blog post I have ever read. Its BIG, but its emotional & has some TRUE sense attached it! I really want to archive it in my blog forever, a feeling I posses within myself & can’t express!
Jo!.. you are the Dude! Most sensational post ever man.. miss all the Fun! Makes me blog and kicks my mind and ass to be active! Hope so people.. you should have sense some difference in my blog.. wait for my updates to roll shortly !! Vinay is In to the Blogosphere back in Bang!!
