Inspiring technology industry

After years of hesitation, finally I took up the challenge to have my own blog, to write about myself, people around me and of course my personal view on Information Technology. I was never good in writing, being in a country with poor education systems and where you have multi-lingual medium teaching from elementary to secondary .. you can never master a language.

So what really inspired me to start my own blog ? well .. it was 5 a.m in the morning and I was reading my favourite site .. Businessweek.com. The "Bold" title of "Yahoo : "Who is leaving and why ?" caught my attention.

There were approximately a dozen of senior execs who had left Yahoo (with the looming acquisition by Microsoft) and these people are really the Guru in their respective areas ... people who invent new technologies and change the way we live. A common place where these "Technology Evangelists/Innovators" share their views is of course - THE BLOG.

It convinced me that being in the Technology Business you should contribute your analytical views, knowledge and experiences to the information reservoir (Internet).... As I go along I shall "populate" this blog with records of my observations.
