Friends, blog, life

Life has been busy with camera. Trying out new things with my photography and trying to learn new things about photography. May be trying to move from just another guy with a camera to an amateur, but not sure how long will I continue with it.

In past few days some of my blogger friends have been doing really interesting things:

Preeti is now an author of a book. Yes another blogger has penned down a book. 34 Bubblegums and Candies, her book, is getting good reviews from readers. I am yet to grab a copy of the book but eagerly looking to get my hands on it. I was thinking of attending her book launch at Pune but had to move out of Pune a day earlier.

Harsha the ever versatile photographer (who is trying religiously to convert me into a serious photographer) left his full time job in IT industry to follow his dream of being a professional photographer. I think photography is his calling. Harsha is also part of the Mutiny, one of the better group blogs. Harsha's Mutiny is now a Magazine in Print. Heard a lot of Magazines going for blog like sites but a blog becoming a print magazine is something new and exciting. Mutiny promises to still keep the blog like feel to it's print version. Aha!!

Rohit is busy with Commonwealth Youth Games in Pune. I met him last week on my short trip to Pune. Rohit is planning to move to Delhi and join the Common Wealth Games 2010. The biggest sporting event of India, an event that has been the catalyst in dramatic change of Delhi's look and feel. Rohit may do a marathon biking from Pune to Delhi, whoaa that will be awesome. Btw, dude I am in for that trip :)


Meetu is planning a revamp of wogma. The movie review queen of Hindi Cinema urf Bollywood has some interesting plans with her wogma. I love the site even in it's current format but she says the new features will make it even better. Meetu, I saw Kidnap without reading your review and I regret it :( may be you should not be allowed to take vacations :). Meetu I read that the director of EMI is some Kabra, related?

Ideasmithy has gone offline for sometime. Good to see that, she has been blogging alomost non stop for last two months, the break was very much needed. I suggest "Going Offline" to every blogger, disconnect yourself completely with the rest of the online world and live the life. You will be surprised with the kind of ideas and energy you will have once you come back. Btw, Ms Smithy looking forward to some great posts and pics once you are back.

Ranjan has launched a new Business Analysis Blog, good to see more BAs voicing their thoughts on this profession. Looking forward to some interesting post on his blog and Ranjan may be we can BlogJam someday :)

Wishing everyone all the luck with their future and I hope to see all of them shine in their respective fields. (Blog) Life is all about (blogger) friends :)
