My End of Season Thoughts……

 

Another year is going to say good bye to us and its been an eventful year for me. For me, this year started off in the worst possible manner, in the causality of a hospital. Sitting there, I thought it was not a good omen and expected lot of worst things in the days ahead. But to my surprise it turned out to be one of the most interesting time in my life. I ventured in to many new things like blogging, got involved with a technical community, delivered a presentation on WP7 and so on. My blog was up and running this and got over a thousand visitors. A big thank you to all and expects a lot in the coming years also.

Also my long cherished dream of having an SLR was finally fulfilled this year by a friend of mine who bought it from overseas. Then there were a lot of weekend getaways with my friends from college and office. This year also helped me to network with many people from Vijay Raj, an active blogger widely known as msigeek, Janakiraman from MS, Sreeju, Anoop aka AmazedSaint, Jairam, Ramprasanna, again a MS guy who is very familiar these days with this adventures in robotics, Anuraj, Shalvin, Yanesh, Saravana Kumar, Bijith, Safil, Shiju, Satheesh, Saleem and the list goes on. Thanks a lot guys, loved every second spent with you.

Speaking of technology, we experienced an eventful year. We finally the saw the uprising of tablets and smartphones which are poised to dethrone PC’s and laptops in the coming decade.Its that time of year when we take a stock of the developments happened in the past year and here from my perspective the end of the season accolades goes to……
