Photos of me with the dogs are rare, I guess I can’t be in the picture and take it too :D
Here’s one with Cuckoo that I really love… Its one of those rare moments I have with her :)
The photo wasn’t posed, she did come and sit that way with me in a moment of coziness.

This one got my attention for the detail – an old mirror, a fan, a old cupboard, a hangar… and a guy who looks like the caretaker of an old bangla.
I like the old grungy look, it reminds me of ancient places with lots of memories…

The last few years have seen a rise in the use of online networks in India. More and more people are going online now and Facebook has become a common word. A year ago my Mom got herself a Facebook account and today my Granny asks us to login (to the “Diary” ask she calls it or Facebook as we know it) so she can check on her Grandchildren’s updates and photos. My Granny is 85 years old and that says a lot about the use of social media in India.

In recent conversations I’ve come across this question often, “people come to my website, check it out but do not return”. This is a problem a lot of small entrepreneurs and businesses have when they start out. You create a website/product based on what you think people need (if you had researched this before creation, great!) and then you go out and tell them about it. People come and check it out, maybe use it and then leave. But a high percentage does not return to your site repeatedly.

This year just like the books I’ve read I’d also like to list and rate the movies I’ve seen. Over the years I’ve watched a lot of movies but can never remember them all. This would be a good way to document them.
This year started with the Movies – we watched 3 movies back to back on 1st Jan – The Adventures of Tin Tin, Tinker Tailor, Soldier, Spy and Mission Impossible.

I’m currently reading ‘The Palace of Illusions’ which is the Mahabharata from Draupadi’s point of view. It’s an interesting take on the epic and it’s got me thinking.

I really like this photo for its colours – they just pop.
And then there’s the whole jump, there’s something beautiful about that and am envious. Thats something I have to do, I have conquer my fear of jumping with a cycle…

Coffee is something I just love in all its flavours and shades and miss it alot these days. I’ve had to cut down on it big time due to my migraines. So here’s to those lovely caffeinated days… :)
