Reincarnation
This is my new blogging avatar. I had a few avatars before and the last one was quite good. But it died a slow death because of my crazy travel over last 18 months and inertia to connect over the weekends. I then installed a blog uploader app on my desktop & I kept jotting my thoughts. It didn’t work that well.
So finally beginning of this month I killed my inertia – spoke to Parag – who has always helped in setting things – and started configuring the blogging platform.
I was planning to launch it over the weekend but today we got an unexpected holiday because of a severe typhoon headed Hong Kong’s way. Incidentally it happens to be my birthday as well and hence it made perfect sense to launch.
Here’s to my new Avatar – Rays, Reflections & Refraction.
Thank You Parag!!!

Nature’s Slide Show
about 3 weeks ago - No comments
I’m always amazed by natural slide shows created by mother nature. It takes the man-made objects and make them look different by changing cloud patterns and sun light. We’re very lucky to have a beautiful view overlooking south china sea and the Hong Kong skyline. Here is my humble attempt to capture nature’s slide show…
iPad and windfall gain for Telcos
about 1 month ago - No comments
iPad is finally here in Hong Kong (officially) and Telcos were quick to put out data packages to support iPad. In my opinion this is a total windfall gain for Telcos. In my opinion Telcos have failed to create a meaningful proposition to increase demand of their data services and it is interesting to see

Photography: Technology & Technique

I’m getting a bit better at landscape photography. I have been posting some of my photos on Facebook and almost 1 out of 3 people commenting on the photographs ask me ‘Which Camera’. Makes me wonder whether people really understand the difference between Technique & Technology. Yes Technology is very important and it helps the

Technological Obsolescence

Its been a while since I posted something. Last 10 days were hectic and didn’t find time to put down my thoughts. Yesterday I flew from Hong Kong to Los Angeles – long flight and the new movie options were not exciting at all. So I decided to watch Mission Impossible. What caught my attention

Typhoon Higos weakened over last 24 hours and HK observatory removed the signal. It looked like a calm & clear Sunday morning but the rain came down heavily by the time we finished playing Badminton @ 10am. Got drenched as we ran from our Car Park to Apartment block – it felt good. We decided

Typhoons – destruction or holiday opportunities?
about 1 year ago - No comments
Typhoon Higos is headed towards Hong Kong. This is probably the 5th or 6th Typhoon of the season. Hong Kong Observatory usually issues Signal 8 when the Typhoon is in the destructive range of Hong Kong. Most of us – who get the benefit of staying under a protected roof look at Signal 8 as
Work Life Balance

Today is a public holiday in Hong Kong and I just spent the whole day working. This year has gone too quickly and I worked through several holidays: CNY, Easter, Ching Ming Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival. I think I’m running fast but sometimes it feels like that the speed is not enough – there is
