All that glitters is gold !!

Have u ever thought twice before changing ur DP?? Well... to most of us its not a big thing!!! We just make a small effort to keep it interesting.

One random day me and @sumagambs had a small discussion.
And the topic was "Is your presence on twitter coz of ur name or ur DP". Or let me put it this way...ppl on twitter recognize u by ur handle or ur DP? When we can have so many case studies about people based on their Dp's, a small discussion was surely a worth!! 

Well the observations were based on fact that our mind stores images in a much better way than text or any other thing. And suddenly i realized that when i browse through my timeline, i read tweets corresponding some particular DP's not handles!!! May be the reason is catchy images get more attention than some alphabets!!!
So, if I change my DP too often!! does that mean that my presence will not be so firm??? Well, our discussion said..catchy DP comes with better visibility!! And frequent changes may effect temporarily !! But its not a vice-versa thing!!!

That’s our take on it !! What do you guys think abt it?? Or do u guys even think abt it or not??

Isn't TWITTER hyped up?

Sometimes i really feel I am more of @sharadharjai than Sharad Harjai.

Do we actually need to update my status when something wrong or good happens to us? Is it necessary to tell everyone that after having lunch I am feeling sleepy in office?? Well, I don't think so. Because in any case updating doesn't make any difference.

For a person who want to spread his business,need to have world news instantly or any other thing, TWITTER can act like a GOD's hand picking him from the ground and dropping on the top of world skipping all the ladders. But whats in there for a person who updates his followers just because he has an account on TWITTER?We have people of just 12 13 years of age so much active here like they need to get everything by their next bdday!!!
Isn't playing in cricket grounds better thing for them than just updating status?


Where no of people following us matters... where every retweet makes us feel our presence and we feel concerned about every tweet about what the other person is doing!!! I would definitely like to ask if these things are taking us to the right direction??




I don't want to mean that something is wrong with this. But has anyone of us felt we are just connected to ourselves through internet? I know it is highly controversial thought and everyone has his/her own way to look at this social media giant.

Still, just a question in my mind and want to know what you people think about this.

The biggies on the menu!!!

Yes the biggies here m referring to are the cricket players with their own restaurants chains. They are BIG NAMES!!! Famous BRANDS Ambassadors!!! They are the faces associated with some of most prestigious brands in world. From some basic consumer products to luxurious brands, they endorse everything, and their names do make a difference.

But when it comes to their own restaurant chains, the story is completely different.

Starting from our Little master to dada.. everyone have its own chain running.

Sachin Tendulkar --- Tendulkar's
Sorav Ganguly ----- Ganguly's
Harbajan Singh ----- Bhajji da dhaba
Zaheer Khan ----- ZK's
Virendra Sehwag ---- Sehwag's favorite

and many more.....




They all have something different to serve you in the plate. While tendulkar's is for sea food, bhajji da dhaba is for punjabi puttars. ZK's is known for its lounge designed by Zaheer Khan. Virendra sehwag has kept his favorite dishes on the menu with the price equal to the runs scored by him in a particular match(Multan Ke Sultan Ki Tikdi-- Rs309).

But the most common thing among all is that none of them is a big hit except ZK's which is doing well in pune. Even with such a huge fan following, their names are not crowd pullers.

Well, I don't have a reason why these big names doesn't take care of brand they are associated with. I think spending money should not be the concern for them. Then whats the reason that is keeping them away from maintaining their own brand value.

Can anyone make me understand this?

Continued.... Finally..!!!!

April 20, 2009

It was some different same morning when I thought of entering into this blogging world. Started very enthusiastically. It was hard to fill thoughts in my empty mind bucket. But some how I started and it felt very good.



Then, it was time for the next entry.... Well for that i collected some stats and formatted my way to call it my 2nd post. Named it "The Bullish Run". Days passed on and on and on and on. I used to visit my blog to check some new activity. Every time the same thing.... A big black screen. Somehow, the no of visits crossed 100 mark(So called achievement).

It was that day and its today, with around 3-4 months in between, the bucket still seems to be empty. But we say, A meaningful change is the need of the hour. So lets start it again and make the move.

The Bullish Run!!!!

SENSEX!!!!!!!

21,000, January 8, 2008

The journey so far was very nice and smooth. Everyone was happy and was enjoying the flow.The bullish rally raised expectations to many folds. In 2007, people predicted Indian economy as it would take India to the top of the world.Many big statements were made :-


"Sensex will cross 25000 mark"
"Sensex will continue to be bullish"

....and don't know what else.

Even I was hoping the same, not as some market analyst but as a common man.... and most of the people expected the same too. Due to a series of jumps in market in a very less spam of time, people had a kind of blind faith in it which led them to invest more and more. People have lost lakhs and crores of rupees in last 1 year. And there is nobody whom you can blame.

But was this blind faith correct?
................don't think so.

In-fact, Was it right for the market to be so bullish? Don't know.

I don't have an answer for this. Nobody has. Obviously everyone has his own way of judging a situation.But whatever is the answer to this question, one thing that we cant deny with is:
"If bullish nature made common man rich, it had made him poor too"


If bulls run, its good. But if they hit with the running speed, its hurts a lot.

The different same morning

Don't know why, but it feels good to have a blog with your name written on it.

Its 7 in morning. God knows why am I awake this time and that too on a holiday.Its off coz I was working on weekends. Felt nice after a night of sound sleep. Infact smthing more than nice if it comes after 15 days of continuous night shift.

Anywayzz... after a movie(STRAIGHT), a small drive to get eggs and french toast in early morning breakfast, thought of finally giving shape to a old thought of writing a blog. People say you are full of ideas early morning. Just giving it a shot. But Is it true?

Even after scratching hard, I don't see any new entries to my thoughts bucket. Still feels its empty.


Well, when now started I will try to keep it going. I think its just till the day u give it a try.
