India Poised

I was surfing the web this evening and came upon a video (where else but youtube):
These kind of videos always seem so inspiring - however, short that inspiration lasts!




I was curious about this whole Tum Chalo To Hindustan Chale concept. Living in the US, I have not kept with all the patriotic themes that run India. So, as I searched for more, I found a couple more. The first one is by Big B. His diction is amazing. Shot in Black and White, this 2 minute clip is captivating.



Here is another recited by Gulzar



I know we have come a long way in terms of technology, economic powers, military might and so on. I sure hope we go on to achieve larger things...

Ajax Goodness

No matter where I am, I love to follow Indian cricket. Agreed, I have not been able to keep pace with all the changes, but when time permits (and time zones allow), I love to follow events.
The google of Cricket has been cricinfo.com. I have found the site overwhelmed at times and the interface a little too cluttered. There are times when I have multiples sites like yahoo, cricbuzz, and a whole bunch of sites @ the same time - some are good with their interface, others better with commentary and so on.
I also am closely following Adobe's Air
which has made its way into eyecare too in the electronic health record (EHR) category - see here where they use Flex technology.
So, where am I going with all this? Adobe Goodness + Cricket Passion = Cricket Nirvana.

But overall a refreshing new approach.
