  • Presenting TheAnand 2009

    I really have to get over this! Since the year I started on geocities, I would keep redesigning my web home every year. This year, I decided to get on a final makeover for at leastthe next 2-3 years. That is when I found the talent in this awesome designer – Ben Jacob. Of only…

  • 6 Time Management Tips for the Web Enthusiast

    I am a internet junkie if not anything else! Spending hours reading blogs (about 250 of them) lurking around forums and not to mention Social Networks and the links shared on Twitter, Facebook and Stumbleupon. This has led to serious time management issues ever since I started working on my startup. I finally decided to…

  • Thank You: TheAnands’ 2500 Strong!

    I do not have words (being a blogger, its ironic!), but am really really thankful to each of you 2500 subscribers of my Blog.

  • India Votes 2009

    The biggest democrazy(not a typo), India goes to poll starting tomorrow. Elections have always been a cause of celebrations, ugly mud slinging and great entertainment in our country and specially in my state of Kerala. From parties whose manifesto contains assurances that they will stop people from talking english and protest the usage of technology…

  • The Great Manipal Experience

    Its not justified to call it an Article-19 experience as we were not able to attend any of the sessions or anything fun in Manipal. We were having our own experience in Manipal. Its a long story and I am exhausted mentally, physically and probably financially by this month. Someday I may laugh at how…

  • Looking past 2008

    2008 was very eventful both in terms of personal life and in professional life. 12 months of rocking events which not only included memorable and historical events like organizing one of India’s biggest BlogCamp in Kerala and getting to meetup with some of the best personalities online and to more sobre ones like getting dumped,…

  • How to Anonymize Yourself Online? – Reputation Management

    Pre P.S: I sincerely hope dad does not read the second paragraph! Does Anonymous You Online sound like an oxymoron??!? Well, its a rule that anyone getting online is not anonymous. For example a search for me renders around 9000 results online. That’s quite a lot about me online for everyone to see and read…

  • TheAnand makes a film début!

    I recently blogged about the movie camp that was conducted in technopark by Amvizone and the first movie shot at the movie camp was released yesterday. It is based on a theme that actually happened in Kerala some months back. It was a sad day 🙁 So, to spread awareness about how not to respond…
