Pirates review::-



All you fans of Mr.Bloom, I have one question for you,why do you like him again??
I finally made it out of the house yesterday and went to see the long awaited Pirates of d Carib. I don't follow the ratings given in the papers cos gosh! face it, critics get paid like hell to give good reviews. Anyways, the movie is strictly for those who have seen the parts 1 and 2 in detail,and when I say detail, I mean the minutest of intricacies involved in them. First of all there is no prolouge(No, I was not late to the hall), so any person/thing who went to see pirates thinking he/she/it would understand it with ease, would make for a good sleep in the AC. As usual acting by Depp and Keira was excellent(no grudges against Orlando, I hate his acting..). The story revolves around the infamous Jack Sparrow, the renowned pirate of the high seas during the era of the 16th century. Following the path shown by ""cylpso"", the crew set out to find Sparrow in Davy Jones locker(where-ever that is??).Excellent fighting scenes between the British East India company and all the pirates. When Indian movies will incorporate the animations of this calibur is not known to me. If you don't want to see the movie, read on- the pirates beat the crap outa Jones and the Brits. Eliz Swane and Bloom marry, but cannot unite cos Bloom gets 10 years community service(haaaha).I'll give it 3 and a half triangles(why stars?).Go and watch the movie, its good!

Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Enterprise

The dictionary defines an Entrepreneur as one who undertakes innovations using business, technical and financial acumen to transform them into viable economic goods, or revitalizing and adding value to an organization. It has to be understood that each and every one has an entrepreneurial bent of mind embedded within us. Most of us do not realize that we unknowingly practice this in our day to day lives through finding an innovative solution at home thus saving time or money, or being 'Intrapreneurs' at work, constantly coming up with methods and processes which would be of benefit to the company and the client. I had the opportunity to attend TiECon-2012 (flagship event of the 'The Indus Entrepreneurs' group) held in the last week of September. The primary focus of the event was to bring together like minded individuals from a multitude of business, financial and technological backgrounds to network, share thoughts and ideologies, learn the art of pro-activeness, un...

Revisiting the blog-o-sphere

Its been a while since I logged on and updated my blog, you may say that for a while I almost forgot that I had one. Anyway, here I am, fit and well since my last post nearly half an year ago! What sparked me to put up an update today was a letter from Google which I received yesterday, BY POST. The weirdness of the fact that Google actually sends mails by post was somehow inconceivable to me! They are apparently offering me Rs.2500 worth of free advertising to make my blog more of a happening place in terms of number of viewers! As always, I have my reasons for not blogging as much as I should. Main reasons are my two recent purchases. A sudden attraction of technology made me go in for the iPod Touch 3G 32GB late last year and more recently an Android HTC Sense Hero. I attribute these devices to the gradual demise of my blog. So is the comfort of these devices that my overall usage of my laptop has gone down! Rolling out of bed in the morning, just press a wee key on the Touch, get m...

Understanding the job

Working with a product company, one of the bigger dilemmas facing the Product team is what to build based on the backlog of product items. Listening to a Harvard lecture podcast online recently, I came across a concept which helped me clear this dilemma. It simply asks a question- what is the job that your product is hired to perform? Ideas for the product you are building can come through various routes. We're going to lose this customer if we don't incorporate this now, this is something the CEO really wants to see in the product, it's been sitting in the backlog forever etc. But a very good way to go about prioritizing what goes into the product is to find the answer to the question- what is the job that your product is hired to perform? Imagine the product to be an employee who is hired for a particular profile. Now there are certain roles and responsibilities or KPI's which will define whether this employee is fit for the post. The same logic will apply to the p...
