Once upon a time...

Once upon a time, there were few friends who thought life was all about having fun and being together..

There was a Kalpak, who gave shelter to everyone...
There was an Abhi, who taught everyone many new things...
There was a Milind, who usually made sense...
There was a Bobby, who usually didn't...
And there was a Pravin, who tried to grow up with them...

But then times changed..
Everyone got to their business..
Realized life is more than jus having fun..

Now...
There is no Kalpak, to spend nights with...
There is no Abhi, to learn the wild(!) things..
There is no Milind, to... mmm.. okay.. to make sense..
There is no Bobby, to.. Just be Himself...
and there is a grown-up Pravin, to move ahead...


They say, Life Moves On...And I say... why so fast?

Is Twitter the next Google!?

No.. I'm not exaggerating.

I actually had such an experience yesterday. I was trying to connect to ICICI netbanking site but that site didn't come up for a long time. I tried "Google"ing for any issue with it, but in vain. Then my friend told me that he read some tweet about major ICICI netbanking problem. So I searched on Twitter, and hoilaaa.. I got hundreds of tweets mentioning the issue with more still pouring in.. So tell me who won here? Definitely Twitter!

With this micro-blogging thing, more people tend to share info faster than having posted it somewhere else on the net and then waiting for Google Crawler to bless it. Of course the info is not exhaustive but big deal! We are getting what we want.

What say?
