    Got Invite? Google+

    Got Invite? I did. Yesterday my wife sent me a Google+ invite (yes, on my request and out of her love for me) but Google is still taking time to send one to my inbox to start using it.

    Be Truthful, Be Transparent

    “Transparency is not about seeing through something, it is all about they seeing through you” The concept of transparency has become even more important in the current digital age. When you talk about transparency the first thing that comes into many minds is a glass or a tracing paper. This is quite true but holds only one side of the story, the story when we look into something.

    The Answer is Yes….. More twitter followers need not mean more Popular, though many wish to think the other way. We are not talking about celebrities, but the typical you and me who are known only to a few of our friends and their friends and now may be to a few hundreds, thanks to the arrival of the Social Media.
