The Year 2009 paves way for a new year 2010 . at this moment i’m looking back to the eventful year 2009 to see the footprints it left over in my life.
The registration of a personal domain name (this site) is the first thing that comes to my mind when i think of 2009. yes it is an achievement.. and a big thanks to DreamHost.
I decided to give up my dream of an MBA. i just realized i should not waste much time thinking of MBA.. if it comes my way any time in future, i will take it.. but i’m not gonna dedicate too much of time on it.
Twitter!!! i wasn’t just a few months and few friends old in twitter when the year was born but at the end of the year i stand her with more than 7000 tweets and 550 friends. It was great to make contact with a lot (really a lot) of new friends through twitter and then through various other ways like tweetups and barcamps etc.
Barcamps and tweetups became a new way of social interaction for me. A lot of friends sharing a lot of views , a lots of dreams, a lot of ideas and ideologies. what i thought as a big things in life were in my hands this year through my friends. TedX was something i missed this year.
A few electronic items were bought this year and some are still in pending list. My New PC ,My New Camera(Fujifilm s200HD) ,My new TV tuner Card, new Headphone etc are the notable new things around me.. A new Mobile and a laptop are in the pending list.
Few Good Films were in theaters this year.. and i experienced multiplex for the very first time. i’ve already written a post about my take on the malayalam movies of 2009.
Micheal Jackson’s death is the be the saddest moment of 2009, MJ was great in all means
Traditional Main Stream media vs New age media (blogs, twitter etc) was a unhealthy fight in 2009.. even though the Main Stream media was very strong in 2009 i can see a day not too far away were we main stream media is fought down.
For me Telangana issue sounds like a serious shame for India. it all sounded like someone is seriously planing a divide and rule policy on india. shame on how our leaders dealt with the issue.
YS Rajashekar reddy’s death was a shock to India and Andra pradesh. A salute to the great leader.
Mullaperiyar issue is blown out of context by senseless and brainless tamilnadu leaders. they should learn to respect lives of 40 lakh people..
Regionalism is becoming a cancer on Republic of India. we really need a strong leader at the center to stop the regionalism issue. Mumbai , Telangana , Goorkaland, and a lots of other narrow minded rationalist maniacs still on news is a real threat to United India.
