It's been a while...a long while since our last post. Staying away from the excuses, I'm blogging right into what's been happening in our absence.
This made headlines. Twitter reached a 10 billion tweets. Believe the
1 billionth tweet was sadly put up by a protected profile. So we will never know what that was, but
read more on how the tweets have just been coming!
The Twitter bug has also hit
the classroom! I really don't think this is a great idea...but well looks like it is helping the shy ones express their opinions!
News on the Desi front.
Yahoo has created a contest for love stories where the internet plays a key role. Some in-film placement, an urban love story set in the office and Karthik Calling Karthik have initiated the
Love @ First Click Contest.
And finally Happy Woman's Day is a trending topic on Twitter. Before we celebrate...
have a look at why we've got a day and the men don't!

At the cost of rubbing people the wrong way, I am going to let you in on a little digital secret! There is a site to actually measure how lousy your meeting was!!!
MeetorDie.com is a creation of

Next up.
Q: Can we go on strike?
A: Yes! Yes!
Q: But on what platform?
A: Why not digital? Everyone is going digital!
That is exactly what advertising agencies in Belgium did (yes they go on strike as well!). These agencies shut-down their websites to protest how clients were conducting pitches.
