Spreading Contagious & Infectious Smile.

Life is too short to worry about anything. Man can predict almost anything and everything that exists but the next moment of his life. Being happy and smiling always is a way to be healthy and satisfied.

Smile is infectious and contagious. One of the easiest things a man can do, is to spread the smile. Try to make one person smile and be happy you will notice how much more happier you feel on doing it. Then i started thinking how can i spread the smile? Will i have to distribute flowers and chocolates to make people smile? The answer is no, just a warm smile acknowledging the other person is more than enough to start this infection.

Like in Munna Bhai, the other person might not respond immediately, he will think you are just crazy but slowly he will give in. This infection effects some people very quickly and some people gradually but it will endup infecting everyone.

I read in an article previously that a child smiles averaging about 800 times a day where as an adult smiles averaging around 20 times a day. This number needss to be changed to reduce the global problems ;)

Man Vs Machine - Education and Awareness is the best tool to fight a machine

Human brain is amazing. The mass of an adult human brain is about 1,300 to 1,400 g* It works all through the life of a human being, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day non stop, amazing. Imagine doing something like that even for a week. I don't think i would last more than even a day with so much to do and so little rest (absolutely no rest).

Even the fastest and the best machines are no match to a human brain. When it comes to the ultimate point its the human brain which can think and work ways then why are men being replaced by machines?
Its the physical restrictions that a human being has which a machine would not happen. Moreover if a machine breaks you can replace the parts of the machine and put it back in service but the same is not true with humans ( this makes me wonder what if machines have feelings and emotions like humans? this would be a different post in the blog. )

If we look at the brighter side of this the managerial and scientific (research and development) sectors are the least effected by machines. These sectors can be provided with more and more machines to support their work but can never be replaced completely. This should be a motivation for people to study and improve their intellect. The more intellectual and educated a human is the more difficult it is for anyone to replace him/her.

In todays world motivation and effort are not enough to get good education and knowledge. Education today comes under the business segment rather than the service sector. Money is what is needed to get into a good school. There is so much untapped talent around the world that is going waste just because they cannot afford to go to school or due to financial barrier they are not able to achieve what they aim at. Although many people want to help and sponsor individuals that are in need it is physically and financially impossible to do that individually and thats where the groups and teams can play a good part.

Awareness and education is the only means by which a country can develop and a developed country is not one with most advanced technology or businesses or finances. A developed country is one where all the people would have a certain standard of living which will provide them all with work and enough pay to lead a comfortable life.

Human being is greedy, every time he has something he needs more. This greed if directed in the right channel can make a human to be a fighter and to achieve what they aim for. We have a number of examples of people who had nothing in their life but grew up to achieve everything they have ever dreamt of. With Education and Effort comes fame, name and wealth.

Orkut!

Google has become a trendsetter in the Technology field. Any product that google introduces is becoming popular almost immediately. Orkut has been out for a while but from my personal experiences, people are getting addicted to Orkut. Best part is that you get to meet your friends from your schooling. I have met friends from my school days which ranges back to as many as 14 years or more. Scrapping has become a trend, ppl no more chat on IM, they scrap each other and i have see accounts with scraps as many as 10k. Amazing how much time ppl spend in orkut, i myself have orkut open in one browser on which ever machine i am working. Keep going orkut, i hope to meet more of my friends whether it is through Orkut or some other means. Thanks Orkut.

Hello!




Hi!
I am a techie but i just started blogging. I did start it once but never really got going with it. Todays not been a really interesting day and nothing exciting at work :-( So i decided this is a good time to start my blog and start scribbling. I live in Alameda and its a really pretty place to be living in. Some people will find it boring as it is a small island and is not one of the so called "happening" places. Its very quiet, not too much traffic...speed limits are too low (max seen is 30mph) It has a very beautiful beach and you can see the high rise buildings of San Francisco downtown on the otherside of the ocean. Its just 12 miles from the downtown SF.
