Interpretation of New Rupee Symbol

Somebody has interpreted the Rupee symbol very well. Have a look dear readers.

I have kept this post in the Thoughtworks category instead of Humour because there is a lot to think about the interpretation of the symbol.
Even after the currency has gone global, does it have any effects on the day-2-day life of poor and middle class and for that matter rich class too?
Is it going to bring lot more opportunities in the country? If yes, how long will it take?
Even economist may not have answer to that. Dr. APJ …

India Has No National Language

Yes, you heard it right. India has no national language. Shocked?? I was shocked too when heard it for the first time.

Since the very beginning of our studies in schools, we have been regularly taught (as far as I remember) that Hindi is our national language. Hindi came from Sanskrit as many other Indian languages did is the most spoken language in India and at least I was unaware of the fact that neither Hindi nor any other language is our national language.
Although, Hindi is the official language of Republic …

Feed Apps: Promote or Not To Promote

I notice a facebook app in some of my friends feed in Facebook namely RSS Graffiti. I initially ignored it but later thought let’s give it a try at least once. I installed it and added it to my page from the app page.
The app did not impress me at all. I did not like the format in which it posted the article on my page and moreover I would never want an app control my profile or page.
This app publishes multiple RSS/ATOM feeds on the walls of our Facebook …

If You Think You Have Nothing

You may have seen this video as a presentation (ppt) file in your mail box or may be as a video as it is below but I am sure most of us must have forgotten this as we so busy that we tend to forget things which are bound to remain in our hearts forever.

IPL Vs Nations Pride

Great Show at IPL season-3, where in batsmen were more keen to hit the ball outside the stadium, and bowlers were busy in putting 6/6 yorkers, then there came the T20 world cup-2010, where scenario was wholly upturned.
There have erupted many theories for the shameful defeat of India in the T20-world cup, some of them said it’s “Fatigue” due to overplay by our PLAYBOYS, OFF the field, not ON the field. Yes surely it needs a good amount of time to prepare you to grasp the attention of blue eyed …

A Gay Wants To Be Gay

Yes, a gay simply wants to be gay (happy). So, lets give them what they want and what they deserve.
Terminology gay or homosexual has not just remained a sex orientation of a male individual but has become a matter of social as well as political issue which is being discussed even in the parliaments of different nations all over the world.
Recently, after gay Romania started in New York city, homosexuality became no longer a criminal offense in Romania and gays are legally protected by anti-discrimination laws.  Ricky Martin also admitted …

DarkQ’s Gay Blog

There are so many problems we face in our daily life, hardly there are people without one or more problems, but the intensity varies. And also the capability of mind to cope with it. Stress has become the major element of life leading to domestic violence, depression etc due to financial crisis, loneliness, failure, discrimination etc. and we can cope with it only if we ourselves move our energy in recovery than own destruction. We hide ourselves in closed doors and do more harm to ourselves in the bad times. …

Computer and Internet

Could not have imagined 10 years ago that school studying child can actually do business. Yes that’s true; internet and computer have made business so simple. No knowledge required, no experience required, just a little brain and internet on your computer can earn us millions.
People use to take months, sometimes years to establish a new business and set us promotional channels to be known by buyers or users of their product. Similarly buyers need to go miles to search the products they wanted. But now people search you on …
