If I were doing my schooling with an iPad having already been invented

I am so damn impressed with the ecosystem of Steve Jobs' creations that I think If I were doing my schooling with an iPad having already been invented, I would known what it is like to actually UNDERSTAND the concepts in the textbooks. I personally think, the textbooks should be prepared keeping in mind the weakest student of a class. Complexity in the textbooks is what makes it uncool. In my times, people stressed a lot on having great teachers...In the coming era, people will stress on better apps for learning (Remember! Steve Jobs gave us an app ecosystem). When we can have e-learning for software products for experienced adults to understand concepts...I don't see a reason why we can't have e-learning for kids doing Laplace transformations and balancing equations with scary benzene rings.

I believe, if your kid doesn't do good in exams, either it is because the textbooks are just way sophisticated for him or because he is not interested in studies. If it's the former then you have got to find out which app can help your kid: a YouTube video, an audio program, a Wikipedia page, an interactive iPad app or a virtual classroom in online forums (look for on online solution if you don't find a good tutor offline). I am really psyched about the way people are building apps on iPad, watch this, I can only wish:



When it comes to academics, I am still on the slower side. But I think if I plan to do a PhD when I am 40, I should be able to prepare well for it and get tutored with ease. I can only thank you, Steve jobs. I feel like I know you really well, and I lost someone really close to me.

TV Channels ;-(

ohh these bloody TV channels are so damn getting into my nerves that its content has made me to write an article on my blog। There is absolutely no dilution of the channel content for weeks 2 go, I have been watching TV just coz I have all the time in this world till I get my joining date ;-) but again there is nothing left for me 2 watch as they broadcast the same thing again and again. WHATS THERE 2 CHANGE MUSIC- plz stop darde disco, ankhon mei teri, mauja mauja & move your body baby etc etc, Put some tracks which may date back 2 the 70s but not these again and again. If not the old list, start with some new movie albums and some tracks from strings or junoon which are nowhere 2 be seen. TV shows- start new seasons of the shows like friends, sienfeld or the OC, the desperate housewives or else change the show itself but plz dont torture with the same season again and again. The only best part of the channels- THE EVER CHANGING ADVERTISING SECTOR WHICH COMES UP WITH EXTREMELY CR...

Image
Better late than never...a perfect beginning for my blog post. It's time to write about my unexpected event which certainly did come to reality today. I used to search google for a post like this in my final year/post placements/post engineering but I never found anything informative & straight to the point with regards to the reporting day ( not trying to boast, really!! )...So, I've put in a little effort to give you the exact picture of whats what on the reporting day!! Wipro Technologies did is for us, it was our reporting day today (27th April 2009). Our training starts on May 4th 2009 (one more week to go). Let me just rewind & play the whole day.

Also note down your agg...

The candidate you want to hire

If you are hiring, the best fit for you would be someone who can fit right-in without any kind of training. There are a lot of guys like that out in the market, but the challenge is that you need to find them, that explains why monster.com and naukri.com is such a big hit. So, I’ve been doing some interviewing for quite a long time now, and I believe that some of the good ways for you to find a candidate is to: Target potential companies and not candidates – if you find a company that works exactly like you do, then you get candidates from there who fit right in. Target communities – Be a part of the community, contribute to the community, and hire people from the community. Coz a candidate in a community shows that he is passionate about his line of work and is working more to get things done besides his office work. Address pain points – Yes! It is a business strategy and not some hiring strategy ( I think, I got that from my MD’s talk in a leadership meet ). It is very general,...
