Food For Thought... Any takers??

Look at the way Asian Paints revolutionized the paints market in India. The introduction of the merawala shade gave consumers the option to get their customized colour paints at very low cost.

Now, to be fair, this is not a new idea at all... in the web, you get your customized web page, Dell supplies you customized PCs, but customized paints.... wow.... thats good....

So, do we expect customized cement, steel rod, PC monitor now.... WHY NOT???????

Look at the basic idea in which Asian Paints worked. They came out with this solution where there is this basic paint, add the colour granules with digital control.. and bingo.. you have paint of your colour choice.... Why not some thing on that line... You have this basic CRT, add modular components whose colours could be changed by some digitally controlled chemical reactions, and the little Johney has his own monitor....

Any comments folks..Till next time...Ciao

An Excruciating Time

It has been a really long time... a good 6 days before I am publishing my thoughts again...In between, I was busy attending to mundane matters.. and some classes in my institute... some really lousy classes... One of them was for "advertising"... the pretty faculty was intent upon killing whatever interests I have in such creative things... and GOD.... she succeeded... I haven't attended a lousier class before.... God... that 2 hrs were a real excruciating time for me..

The previous night I watched the classic "Les miserables". After the class I felt like the character, who suffered the most..... which interestingly Victor Hugo may have missed.

Of course, there were a few interesting ones in between as well... but none could compensate the earlier infliction..

Till next time...Ciao

It might not have worked for you, but you never know.. the good gracious Lord is always fickle.... at any time HE could command the lady Luck to smile a bit on me.... the selfish me... you never know... do you????

Or is it re-inventing the wheel again......???

A New Beginning

This is the latest of the blog writing sprees that I have engaged myself in, in the last few months. Everytime I am trying to do something really meaningful to get into the high n mighty world of the cyber bloggers, I am not getting enough energy in me to continue that. I am either not getting some really good thoughts to put-in or its plain and simple boredom n laziness combined into one which is creating the havoc. But you never know, atleast the urge is there to do something on this front...

So I am hopeful that this latest of my endeavours would produce fruit... I just hope that it becomes a long lasting one.

Till next time.... Ciao...
