Rising from the Sands!

It is quite amazing, really. In fact, it is more than amazing - it is disconcerting. 
The flight is skimming over the desert with nothing but hundreds of miles of sand in all directions, and suddenly we see a huge set of skyscrapers jut out of nowhere! There are beautifully paved black roads that crisscross the sands, and even frightening - there suddenly appears a large traffic island with lush green manicured lawns!!
Welcome to Doha. 
Or rather, welcome to the Middle East, where make-believe is the reality. 
Travelers have always said that nothing can quite prepare you for the flood of oil prosperity that is visible all over the region. And they are right! Though we know that petro dollars buy prosperity like nothing else, it is still quite astonishing to see the creation sprout up right under your plane's wings! 
Honestly, this area was never meant by god to be this lush. But in modern times, God can always be convinced to change his intentions! When we think about it, it suddenly strikes us that not one thing in this my-building-highest world of showmanship would have been procured locally - save the sandstone which is available in plenty in the deserts. Every other thing would have been shipped from elsewhere, and that one realization itself is enough for us to understand why this is by far the world's most prosperous marketplace. The manager of the hotel i'm staying at tells me that each morning two plane loads of veggies are unloaded at Doha, in addition to all those hundreds of trucks which plow through the desert all night; and it is perfectly logical. What will people eat otherwise? Construction is happening like crazy. Almost every building in the city has a crane mounted on top, proving that there are greater heights to be scaled. 
Man's resourcefulness knows no bounds. Any mere mortal, looking at the spread of the desert, would have been frightened away to take up farming or sheep-rearing in their homeland. But then, these are no mere mortals! These are white-clad-super-humans fortified with petroleum! And when there is oil, everything else will follow suit! America provides Air Defence. The world's leading airlines joust for space and are willing to pay top dollar for a couple more parking slots. The port is choc-a-bloc with ships taking oil out and bringing everything else in, and there are hundreds more waiting out there to get a berth. No where else in the world does money have so much power - so blatantly!
But then that isn't a bad thing. We all love our money, and hoard it secretly! Here, it is openly put for display, and the world gawks.
Philosophically, the desert will claim all of this back sometime. There have been feudal lords that ruled over these sands hundreds of years ago, and most of their footprint has been lost in the movement of the dunes. The same is bound to happen again, and this time, the desert will have a tougher time, since Larsen and Toubro is at the helm of things, but take back it will! And in spite of that knowledge, there is so much money flowing around, it is fabulous!
You can't but love the Middle East. Flaunting is an art, and these people are its best known ambassadors.

Too intelligent for their own good

We often talk about Indian advertising being among the best in the world - and it is true too. Some of the world's most creative ads have come out of the Indian advertising agencies, and we continue to churn out some mind-boggling stuff each year!
But then, once in a while, our people become too intelligent for their own good, and the ad goes bouncer to the watching millions! The latest campaign of Vodafone is a classic such case.

Usually, Vodafone comes up with some amazing pieces of advertising - Zoozoos and The Pug campaigns have hit off brilliantly! The last one with the children wasn't up there, but the latest one - featuring the Chicken Vs Penguin Fun Fair campaign is quite strange! Really.

If you haven't watched it yet (which is possible only if you haven't been watching IPL at all), here it is again - 


Now, the purpose of this ad is to say that Internet is Fun on Vodafone. If you watched this for the first time, you may wonder what this has to do with the concept at all. Ogilvy is a smart company and hence they made sure that the ad comes up at least once every few minutes - allowing viewers to assimilate the information, and hopefully, catch on to what they wanted to convey in this strange roundabout campaign. If you watch closely, you'll see that the rollers on which the Chicken and Penguin have a race are attached to a scroll within the television set between them, and as they run, the scroll runs along, and up comes a trophy for the Chicken - when the morose anchor says that 'Chicken Wins'. Wow! Now why does another team have to blast them with jets of water is anyone's guess.

Why do internet ads all have to be so immensely confusing? Reliance takes us to a whole new level by getting a guy to open his knots and rush out of a car stranded on the way of a speeding train - all while watching a how-to video using the Dongle. Amazing, huh!

The TVC of Vodafone for IPL5 says that this is a series of 8 advertisements which will come up as the tournament progresses. We only hope that the next ones aren't as 'intelligent'. Go, folks - take a tip from the people who make ads for Pidilite - especially the chap that made the Fevikwik ad with five fish stuck to a little piece of wood. 
Bring 'em back!

Water for Elephants - My Review

I absolutely love Circuses. Not just going to them, but reading about them. One of my all time nostalgic memories remains Mr Galliano's Circus from the spectacular Enid Blyton.
Not just for me, for most people, circuses trigger nostalgic memories, with views of the big top, trumpets, the wooden sleeper benches, and of the ring, spread over with saw dust. With circuses going bust all the time, the nostalgia factor only becomes larger!
Water for Elephants is an amazing piece of writing; for it is not set in circuses of our time. Instead, Sara Gruen chose to head back to the days of the Great Depression in the United States, and weaves a story about a train circus. There is a short interview with the author as an add-on to the book, and she says that the story came to her while reading a little news article about a train circus back then. Kudos to her for having the guts to write such a poignant story!
Another factor which makes the book extra special is that it is one of the few successfully published novels from the Na-No-Wri-Mo program (The National Novel Writing Month), which is an amazing idea for all aspiring writers. Some day hopefully, I'll work out the discipline to become a part of the program!
Coming to the book, Water for Elephants is centered around the life of Jacob Jankowski, a student of Veterinary medicine, whose life takes a strange turn and he lands up on the train of The Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth!

Every page of the book is filled with research. Sara must have spent thousands of hours to make sure she's creating an accurate image of America in the 1930s, and she does a phenomenal job. By the time we're halfway through the book, we are all experts in the socio-economic situation of the country in that era - and that is no small achievement!

The real magic of the book is the way the writer oscillates between the present and the past. The story actually starts with Jacob being a man in his nineties, living in an assisted-living facility. Throughout the book, the writer jerks us back to the present into the eccentricities of old people in the home. And in a few minutes, we are again thrown into the circus ring of the 1930s. Beautiful piece of writing!

All good books have a strong plot, and this one is no different. The plot of the book takes us through the day to day struggles of a circus trying its best to stay afloat in different times, and the crux is a love story! Each time we're brought back to the present, the story moves along to its next phase. Sara has made sure that the book doesn't lose pace anywhere, and every single character gets its due - from Uncle Al - who owns the circus, to August - who has the most complex character in the book. All the facets of human life - love, laughter, friendship, rage, fear, and victory, are etched throughout the story - making it a rich read.

This is a book you must get your hands on. Water for Elephants was also made into a movie, and that is next on my to-watch list.

The best UK Based Low Cost Domain Provider

Finding a good web hosting company is quite a challenge. Usually, we differentiate hosting companies based on their prices - we either say that the company is an 'economy' host or a 'quality' host. Seldom do we find a company which is both.
And most of us buy our domains from one provider, and then host it on another, which adds on to the cost.
If you're in the UK, a good option - bridging all of the above mentioned options - would be http://www.uk-cheapest.co.uk/
They have their own domain registration interface, and the hosting costs are among the lowest in the country (and all over the world!). But just because they're a low cost UK based domain provider, they don't cut corners giving quality. With 24x7 Live Support, the company has UK based web hosting - which is a great add-on when it comes to search engines. Local businesses benefit the most from having a local hosting company - and when you get a full package starting at £2.79 per year, there is really no reason to look elsewhere.
If you're looking for a UK based web hosting company, your best bet would be UK Cheapest. Take a look at the packages, and you'll agree too!

The funny thing about review sites!

Review sites have been around for quite a while now, and they are broadly of two genres

- Sites in which reviews are professionally written, and
- Sites which collate reviews from users / allow users to post their reviews themselves.

In the initial days, sites like Mouthshut and Yelp were a big deal! With time, however, the sheen got diluted, and to be honest, the fault lies with these sites themselves. There's a case study from Google Panda, which shares the story of a very popular review site which took down over 20000 pages of reviews from its site in order to come back to the original standard it started with - and still it hasn't regained its rankings on SERPs.

The reason I said this is a funny thing about review sites is because it's a Catch 22 situation. Till there's enough traffic on the sites, the ads don't start making any money for the owners. And then once there's a lot of traffic, reviews start pouring in, and there's no manpower left to moderate! For a large review site which collects reviews from the general public, it is next to impossible to really curate all the reviews which flow in from all over the world. 
Then comes the case of quality. Most writers are not really writers anyway. Unless the site is an Amazon, it can't get away with trash content! And then there is the case of link baiters who publish reviews with links back to their websites, which is even more dangerous!

A better option would be to stick with your city when it comes to review. Like this site which reviews London Businesses, go local, and you'll have a better idea of what to expect when you really decide to use the business reviewed.

Corporate Entertainment in Orlando Florida


Many business firms conduct corporate events on various occasions. Launch of a product, award and reward function, etc. are some of the few occasions when a corporate entertainment is planned. Though people visit many of this corporate entertainment in Orlando Florida events, not many would really impress the audience. A really impressive corporate event would be talked about for many days even after the event took place. It is therefore very important to choose the right entertainment program.
Comedy Ventriloquist Tom Growl at one of his shows
Sometimes, speeches by eminent personalities and corporate gurus are conducted as part of the corporate entertainment in Orlando Florida. This is considered as routine and several times, the audience may face boredom too. After several corporate presentations, conferences, speeches and meetings, audience expect to be entertained and enjoy for some time. For this, an entertainment program such as music performances, magic shows, etc. are organized by some firms. However, in such events, audience may be entertained but do not ‘participate’. To really enjoy the show, it is better to organize programs where audience can participate and be a part of the program. 
A ventriloquist entertainment program can be a better idea for corporate entertainment in Orlando Florida. It is because the audience can participate and really enjoy the show. Such an event would not only be innovative but also quite entertaining too. A ventriloquist experienced in performing in corporate events can enhance the effect of the corporate event conducted. The artist can perform on the stage and entertain everyone in the hall without disrespecting anyone. Unlike in other entertainment programs where large number of performers needs to be paid and accommodated, a ventriloquist can be a one man army who can run the show. Log on to know more.

Paper Prints coming back into vogue


Photography as a hobby has come back big time! A couple of decades ago, we had people walk around clicking everything and anything they laid eyes upon. And then, slowly, the hobby fizzled out. Professionals ruled the roost once again till now.

And suddenly, we once again see a spurt in the number of cameras. However, unlike before, the cameras are not the standard variety. Most cameras that serious enthusiasts are picking up are the entry level SLRs, and then they are experimenting with various lenses! It has become quite common to see hobbyists lug around professional cameras with optional lenses included in the bags! And not just that - people have a tremendous knowledge of what they're doing too. Partly due to the immense popularity of Photoshop, and then due to the proliferation of easy printing options.
Till printing went online, people more or less stopped taking printouts. Most of their images were just stored on their computers, and that is a prime reason why we have computers with terabytes of storage today. But after online printing options came into being, photos started appearing on paper once again, and rightly so!
The real magic of a photograph isn't in seeing it on a computer screen, or as the display pic of a friend on Facebook. Nothing can beat the magic of a well printed photograph on professional photo paper. Places like the Kodak - Photo Lab allow amateurs to print photos which are way better than even your local studio! Considering that most studios anyway print on Kodak Paper, you can be sure of getting the best.
There are other places you can get your prints done also. Depending on the shipping charges and availability in your region, you can get your photos done and shipped home in the best quality. Try them the next time, and bring back the memories!

The Litigators - My Review

It comes as no wonder that John Grisham's new book has quickly gone on to the top of the charts. Grisham has been the master of the Legal genre for so many years now, and he's inspired a whole new generation of writers in his chosen genre.
But then it must be tough with those astronomical expectations! You can only come up trumps with a certain plot so many times. And Grisham has done it a dozen times already - the plot of the underdog lawyer (usually a rookie with no trial experience) taking on a giant corporation with millions in legal fees, and coming up on top, has been badgered to death. We all love the underdog. Stories with underdogs coming up on top have been on bestseller lists for centuries now, and the trend will be around for the rest of time.
Grisham has a similar story here yet again, and as is his trademark, does justice to it. But a certain storyline can only be beaten to death so many times! In spite of a different 'treatment' the plot is so transparent that you know exactly what happens at the end of the book.
In the plot, there's David Zinc (yes, strange name!) who's completed 5 years pushing paper at a multi billion dollar law firm, and cracks one day with the pressure. After some very unique happenings, he stumbles on into the firm of Figg and Finley, who must be the two most incompetent lawyers in the greater Chicago area. The rest is history - Zinc stumbles into court, leads his firm into some money, and the book ends with him setting up on his own and becoming a champion for the under-privileged.

But then, all is not lost. Grisham is back to writing legal thrillers after a while now - he's written two Youth Fiction books in between (The Theodore Boone series), and one legal book which followed a real story (The Innocent Man). So it is nice to see the master back in his flow. There is nothing wrong with the book - it is a great read. The problem probably is with me - i've read too many novelists in this genre - Michael Connelly, Steve Martini, and many more. So I've become a cynic now!
Another good thing about the novel is the way Grisham takes us through the motions. It is good to see the champion of the legal genre back in the driver's seat once again, and if you're new to reading Grisham, you'll love this book - much like aficionados will remember staying riveted while reading The Firm, The Rainmaker, and The Client.

Go on, Grisham! Don't move away from mainstream legal thrillers just yet. Keep dishing them out, and we'll keep lapping them up :)

Passport 2.0

Getting a passport was a nightmare! 
Anyone who's applied for a Passport from Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India, knows the terrific experience one goes through :)
But then, last month, when I went for a renewal of my passport, I encountered something different! (or I was probably drunk beyond approach)

  • After applying online and submitting details of the original documents, I was given a time slot and a number online itself. 
  • I was asked to go at 9 am, but I went at 1 pm, but was politely asked to rush in! All it took was a form (available over the counter at payment of Re. 1/-) citing the reason for delay.
  • At the counter, all documents were verified by smartly dressed young people (with badges of The Tata Consultancy Services - who are the outsourcing partners of the Passport process) who spoke flawless English, and were polite!!!
  • The number I was allotted was already flashing on the screen, and I was asked to head over to the next section (took about 5 mins at the verification department)
  • There were a row of cubicles, each with a smart young lady (!) - again bearing the TCS logo, and my number was already up on one of these cubicles. There was a split screen computer - so we can see what's happening on the service associate's screen, and a Camera popped up on a stand on the table.
  • After running all documents, making me go through all details carefully, and taking a photo (she even asked if I liked the photo or she'd take another!), and scanning all documents, she gave me a file, a few more printouts and sent me over to the next section. There was a challan of 1000/- charged at the counter and receipt duly issued.
  • When I was short of a few photocopies, the lady at the desk even scanned and copied them out for me on her machine! (I then realized that this is all a dream.)
  • A wait of about 10 mins in a comfortable, air-conditioned area with music (!) playing in the background, and I finally saw the man - an employee of the Ministry - beckoning me over for verification. But strangely, even he wasn't rude! (There must be something wrong!!) And Blimey - he called me 'sir'!
  • Another 5 mins, and the Passport Officer called me in for a final check-over, and sent me out to the exit desk
  • At the exit desk, my file was taken in, and an acknowledgement was being generated. While I waited, the young man in the counter gave me a feedback form to fill (I've run out of emotions by now).
  • He then gave me an acknowledgement and wished me a good day (phew!)
But that's not all!

Two weeks after this dream, I get a call from the police asking for a time when he can come home for verification. He even says that he can come back the next morning if I can't come home now (By now, i'm certain I'm hallucinating). To avoid spoiling the dream run, I rushed home, and a formally dressed man was already waiting for me. After documentation and verification, he said - hold your horses - 'Thank you Sir'! There's more - he refused my offer of water, tea, juice, and shook my hand and left. If you're an Indian, you would have noticed already that there's an event that I missed out. But no - he neither hinted nor asked for any 'formality'! Spectacular, huh?

And last night - 5 days after verification, I received an SMS (!) from the Ministry of External Affairs with my new passport number, and the fact that it had already been despatched by Speed Post, and the message even gave the docket number of Speed Post if I'd like to track it.

Ok, enough of poking fun. Honestly, the experience has been delightful - to say the least. All through, there is a website and a helpline (toll-free) which can be used to track the status of the passport and to raise any grievances. The system ran like greased lightning, and in under a month, a new passport is on its way home (hopefully the Postal department won't spoil the party). 
If this is what can be achieved through a Public-Private partnership, I just pray for the day when all of our rotten systems will head that way. But for now, Ministry of External Affairs and Tata Consultancy Services, Take a bow! You've brought us a vision of what it's like to live in a 'developed' country!

The wane of Social Networking

Everything in life waxes and wanes. And Social Networking is no exception too. But strangely, the hype created isn't really over, and the wane has begun already. While there is no doubt that the phoenix will rise once again, it is surely a surprise that people have started moving away so soon.
It is a fact that FaceBook has virtually taken over our lives. Everything we do has to be informed to whoever is waiting in real time, and we reached a stage when we keep refreshing the screen to see whether there are any new likes and comments on what we had for breakfast today.
There are people who I know who've already taken their profiles off Facebook (and everything else too), and that was when I realized that there is a feature on FB, which allows you to hide your profile for a while, and then whenever we wish to come back into the world, we just need to click and confirm.
So it is a thought out move from FB too - they've expected that people will come and go, and they're bang on target - intelligent R&D! Social Networking has an uncanny ability of dragging the most introverted individual into its charms, and their lives are never the same ever again.
After a couple of years of being in a Big Boss house, people are bound to get fed up! Privacy suddenly rears its head and announces with a vengeance that it is time to shut up and sit tight for a while, and that probably is what's happening right now. 
For many people, being on FaceBook and Twitter means it is mandatory that they voice their opinion, though they don't really have one. That is why we see so many tweets from eccentric people like Ram Gopal Varma (#RGVZoomin)! Being silent online is even more difficult than being silent in real life :)
The good thing about getting away from Social websites is the time will be spent pursuing other interests - reading books (the real ones), playing games, getting out of the house, or even watching TV! 
But then, this change is cyclic too - a few people will reclaim their lives - albeit temporarily - and others will step in, and then they'll interchange positions after a while. The gap is bound to make the people miss online interaction, and they'll find it to be even more rewarding the next time they come along.
Anyway, the face of Social Networking is changing. Anna Hazare will bear testimony to that, as will the Egyptian revolution - both of which are unthinkable without FaceBook and Twitter. 
So the next time you feel your online social life is taking over your real one, just step back, deactivate your account temporarily, and enjoy the calm! It is absolutely acceptable to do so, and when you come back, your coolness factor will only rise ;)
