Wondering...
A few months back when I was reading in ET about the entry level salaries offered to the young grads from IIMB and the dozens that were recruited on Day Zero, I was left wondering..."kaaash MBA do - chaar saal baad kiye hota, to aise kadkey to nahi hotey"
Of late, with the fee hike to 9 lacs and the reservations to some 49.5% ... I was wondering "Accha hua saala 4 saal pehle padh liya, nahi to abhi bhee Assam mein Tel nikaal raha hota..."
btw..since I've posted after a long time, must give some interesting update on Mumbai. Rahul Das, Charsi, Karthik and Rishi have all decided to move into Mumbai in the same housing society. How cool is that....
Alam: Lothlorien aur Body's Box Office yaad hai aur Hotline and Shanky's bhool gaya!!!

Getting a proper "Education"
Being totally vela, I paid a visit to Spidi .. which, by the way , has acquired a new logo for it self .. here are the new and the original logo (Thanks to Samcho for digging out the old logo)
On the new look Spidi 3.14 ... I found some interesting stuff on tools currently popular on campus network. One of the tool's description said -
DC++ is the campus per-to-peer file sharing mechanism. Junta share their documents, photos, songs, movies, "educational material" and any other files worthy of sharing through it.
(emphasis are mine)
Educational material ... hmm ...
some things don't change ...
I bet that sharing "educational material" is the most dominant use of DC++ and is even more popular than sharing music ... brings back memories of "body's box office" and "lothlorien" ...
