Long trip over a bike

My younger cousin brother is crazy about bikes. Few weeks back he told me about his plan to visit his hometown. I said "Ok! What's the big deal?". Then he told me "over a bike". Since he is staying in Gurgaon while his hometown is Madhubani, which is around 1250 km from Gurgaon. So after listening this I was like "Oh My God! Are you sure?". He was quite determined, so I asked about how he'll be going to execute this. But as I guessed he had no plan. Though his excitement was visible over Facebook, as he was asking for suggestions on his wall. Since nobody else has ever did this before, he wouldn't got much suggestion though everyone wished him luck. Finally he included his friend in his trip. And I sighed as two can better care themselves. As per their plan, in fact, no-plan they were gone over a trip and to my expectation they finished it well. As he called me about his exciting journey of 2 days. Though I knew they'll do it even tho...

App Inventor Versus Scratch

Google has launched it's latest innovative solution for mobile applications. Now you may think what so special about it? Well, it is special because now it is not required to be a programmer to develop a mobile application for Android operating system. With the help of this latest App Inventor, any non-programmer can develop a mobile application. The idea is quite innovative, as it uses blocks instead of textual code to create an application. Though this idea is not so unique, since another language named Scratch, that is meant for kids, was launched in Dec, 2007 by Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab. Scratch has been developed keeping kids in mind. So it was made to teach programming language to kids in a very simple way. And to make it so, all the complexity have been removed. Hence, the result were blocks of hidden wrapped codes. It seems that Google has taken this idea further and made it more general purpose. In fact, it looks more useful, if it can be used...

My first self-review of my performance & work in my first job

Below is my email that I'd emailed to my Boss before my first performance review and it was before I got permanent in the G-Cube Solution. It was my first survey of my performance & work to show it to my Boss on 24th May 2007. After reading this email my boss was surprised because nobody (no employee) had ever done this type of work in his life. My boss Kapil Sir with another director Ankit Jain (Hr head) talked to me about this email and many other things with that. The reaction I'd got was just amazing. Have a look at my email that is given below: I’ve asked people about the cases when someone out of their colleagues got promotion or salary hike then what happened, what type of problems they faced, what was the reaction of their colleagues, etc., before I’d joined the company. And on the basis of those cases, I have analysed this.   Possible problems arise when someone  (an employee , say A )   gets  promotion or salary hike and if  their  colleagues do not accept that :-...

SPREAD THE CODE 'SOS'.
