The Bird Flu Effect

Bird Flu is detected at Navapur in Maharastra but the repurcussions are seen right across the street from my home here in Chennai.

I walked across to a couple of shops in virugambakkam where we usually buy fresh chicken. Business was clearly dull. I accosted one of the guys working in the shop and enquired if he was worried with his business taking a hit. He shrugged it off saying that he has seen similar situations before and business would eventually return back within a week.

Check out the snap below. This shop would usually be teeming with people but it had a deserted look. In the second snap, take a look at the cage. During normal days, it would be stuffed with broiler chicken but it was empty today.

Whoa! BMW Cycles?!

I knew Mercedes Benz made cycles. Didn’t know BMW also did.

Blog Story on ET

I missed this story on ET that appeared last Sunday. So did Google Alert. Priya Saini, the technology journalist at ET did an interview with me a couple of weeks ago for a story on what bloggers do to make their blogs interactive. She also has interesting input from a whole lot of other folks, mainly bloggers and game developers. It mostly talks of how easy-to-embed interactive games are being deployed in blogs. I didn’t know that Bunchball.com, the site that offers flash game for blogs was developed by an Indian. Neat.
