Skype Notifications
We use Skype for our IM needs at work. And I, of course, keep all my devices always logged in – just so that I don’t have to log in every time I move from one device to another.
My frustration is from Skype notifications bombarding ALL of my devices, specially my iPhone, even when I am actively on another device.
When I compare the same issue with my other IM solutions – none of them have this issue.

flickr Extremely Slow
Actually I am being generous when I say “flickr is SLOW” – I have NOT been able to make any updates to my images all morning. Also, I have been trying to upload about 160 images since last nite and am still short of being upload the last 50+. Here is a list of actions I am not able to perform this morning:
- View my own Photostream
- Update Tag on a small batch (of less than 20 images)
- List Calendar View of my images

iMessage
Most of my friends use an iPhone, almost everyone uses a smartphone. But most of them, iPhone and non-iPhone users alike, don’t spend the minimum time / effort to set up their devices properly.

Snowball . . . . .
Life, often or at least sometime, takes a wild spin that you never imagined let alone would have planned. What can you do when that happens? Wait?

Someday . . . .
Not really a Bucket List, but in some ways I guess it is. Anyway, here are things that I’d really like to experience. Since I am not sure how feasible it will be to experience these after I am no longer alive, I guess I’ll need to target a time of some sorts.
Anyway, irrespective of timeline, here is a list:
- Watch the 4 Grand Slam
- At least the finals but hopefully more
- Travel
- Egypt
- Morocco
- Peru
- Paris – not just travel but actually live for 3 months to a year
- Road Trip from New York to London – http://www.cnn.com/2015/03/24/travel/trans-siberian-road/index.html
- Write a Book (or 2 or 3 . . . .)

Bias
To be biassed is natural, but it is not acceptable to be blind.

HOW TO RECRUIT THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB?
Put about 100 bricks in some Particular order in a closed Room with an Open window. Then send 2 or 3 candidates into the room and close the door. Leave them alone and come back After 6 hours and then analyse The situation.
If they:
- Are Counting the Bricks – put them in the Accounts Department
- Are Recounting them – put them in Auditing
- Have messed up the whole place with the bricks – put them in Engineering
- Are arranging the Bricks in some strange order – put them in Planning
- Are throwing the Bricks at each other – put them in Operations
- Are sleeping – put them in Security
- Have broken the bricks Into pieces – put them in Information Technology
- Are sitting idle – Put them in Human Resources
- Say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has Been moved – put them in Sales.
- Have already left for the day – Put them in Marketing
- Are staring out of the window – Put them on Strategic Planning
- Are playing cricket with wickets made of bricks – put them in Help Desk
And then last but not least:
If they are talking to each 0ther and not a single brick has been moved – Congratulate them and put them in Top Management.
