Market Scenes from Malleswaram

April 28th, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in India, Living, Photography

A few week­ends ago, along with a few photo bud­dies, I went to Sampige Road, Malleswaram. We’ve been try­ing to cover the mar­ket places recently and I must say it’s been an inter­est­ing expe­ri­ence so far.

Kaavya’s Boo Boo

April 26th, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in Books, Internet, Living

Pic­ture this. You’ve got your­self a huge advance on your book. You need to fin­ish it. Quickly. The pub­lish­ers are pound­ing on the door. With the money bags. What do you do? You scurry to your library, pick up some nov­els you really loved read­ing and ran­domly start copy­ing (or get­ting inspired) bits here and there. Besides, you’re only 17! Unfor­tu­nately though for you, sev­eral oth­ers too have read the same book.

Worst ad ever?

April 26th, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in Living

Or at least in a long, long time. I had a sim­i­lar reac­tion when I saw the Pepsi cam­paign a few months ago, where they had lips on women’s navels that were mouthing the Pepsi theme. It was pos­i­tively hor­rific. Later, they realised it and changed some bits of it.

What’s in a name?!

April 26th, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in Living

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes had a baby daugh­ter. Okay, that’s not so sur­pris­ing. It was expected after all. But what I can’t under­stand is their choice of name.
Celebri­ties seem to be intent on giv­ing their kids the strangest names so that they have a tough time in school and while grow­ing up. Or […]

Fresh and new — Taazza aiming to break new ground!

April 22nd, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in Living

Dur­ing Bar­Camp, I talked to Arun Ram for a while. Along with his brother Arjun, he is work­ing on an ‘inno­v­a­tive’ news aggre­ga­tor called Taazza.com.

BarCamp Bangalore in on!

April 22nd, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in Living

So Bar­Camp is offi­cially on here in Ban­ga­lore. I walked in at about 8.30 am and found a few peo­ple hard at work already. Quite a few peo­ple walked in around 9ish and I’d esti­mate around 50–60 peo­ple have arrived and I guess many more will be com­ing through dif­fer­ent stages of the morning…

Another radio channel!

April 19th, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in Living

I was pleas­antly sur­prised when I tuned in yes­ter­day to find one more radio chan­nel. So finally, Ban­ga­lore gets one more radio chan­nel, Radio Mirchi at 93.3 MHz.

IMHO, there are too few radio chan­nels on air. Which is strange because it’s such an eco­nom­i­cal means of com­mu­ni­ca­tion and a high penetration.

April showers and cats!

April 17th, 2006  |  by Anita  |  published in Feline Obsession, Living, Personal

Ah, April show­ers! When the first few droplets fell on my bal­cony on Sat­ur­day evening, I thought it was my neigh­bours upstairs clean­ing their bal­cony. When it started rain­ing in earnest, I rushed out and put my hand out to catch the first few droplets. Rain still excites me for some rea­son. And it’s been […]
