वाढदिवसाच्या हार्दिक शुभेच्छा!

Heres how todays day started for me:
1. Had planned to drop my brother to shivajinagar at 7am. Though had set up 3-4 alarms , never woke up until 8am!
2. Started for office at 9:45am, thinking that i can return by 5pm. went to bikaner sweets wala , but no sooner i started my bike, the compressor went off. couldnt start my bike again. had to drag it back to rahul automobiles, almost 2kms. the road is on side of hills, and you can imagine me dragging the bike up and down the curvy roads. This service centre is close to my house and reliable one. The service guy informed that head, valve along with compressor might have gone bad due to bad petrol use. Now thats a warm welcome to pune!
3. went back to get my car from parking lot. As i had the keys, I thanked god that i didnt have to face my wife at home :)
4. Just yesterday night had bought lemonade bottle and kept in car. i was so thirsty after the workout, that the lemonade tasted really chilled. Again thanked god! 5. Earlier my wife did tell me take the car. so good part is i realised that its sometimes good to hear what your wifey says!

So in all, the first half of day had me getting some things right and others bad.
I can figure out what the rest of year holds up for me :)   Visit blogadda.com to discover Indian blogs

My Startup - The beginning

Background The idea struck way back in 2007 when I was playing for IMM team in Bangalore. This group used to organize regular matches and an annual tournament with rival group BTM. We used to have high drama even for the local weekend matches. Surprisingly there was no way to publish results on any cricketing site. So I pushed the scorecard and match details on wordpress blog. Here is the link to the older blog: Marathi Cricket blog From then on, me and prashant - who was also teammate at IMM, always discussed on how to setup such a website on our own. But then I moved to pune and things got slowed down due to lack of time. We were always in touch and the idea to start was still in our heads. Meantime, I was looking at different db schemas and tried to come with one on my own. For almost 3 years, we were not sure how to go for this startup. So we tried our hands with joomla. And once we saw that we can build our own custom module like the way we wanted it, we became s...

On Road Encounters

In pune, there is never a dull moment when one is driving. Everyday, it somehow happens that i get into close shave! I am planning to post all such incidents here. So buckle up, put on ur helmets for this joy-ride, hoping that there wont be any road incident that i wont be able to write down later :) Friday, Jan 7, 2011: we planned to go to baner around 8pm. so started early for office as had to come back home by 7-7:30 pm. The ride to office was again free of any major troubles. Returned home in evening without any major findings. We started around 8:30pm for baner. Took the swargate-tilak road-university-baner route. There was quite traffic till swargate, as usual. There was a jam near durvankur on tilak road. There are basically non-operating signals on this busy cross-road and bikers zip through fast between cars. Was standstill with 2-3 cars ahead of mine. unfortunately, i couldnt see a biker facing me coming from durvankur. he too stopped dead next to my a-pilla...

Metro in pune

Metro in pune (28th Jan 2010) Now officially the govt has given the green signal to this project. As everyone knows, this decision was delayed quite a few times and god knows when it all had started. I find one thing that is common between these projects from pune and bangalore. These projects were approved once the land/flat prices  had reached there peak values. bangalore real estate prices were already were at its peak then and people thought it will bubble down. then came the metro and surely it helped push the prices upwards. So i am trying to understand the bigger picture. Did these cities had congestion problems earlier- yes. Did these cities had high real estate growth earlier- yes Did these cities had heavy migrant population leading to influx of lot of people- yes. Did these cities expanded like crazy- yes. The last one is really the one thing i consider to be the reason behind this. Both these cities expanded in residential boundaries. say now people are ...
