Change(s)

This post is for those changes which are soon going to come in life. I will always remember this day 11th Oct 2011.

I have an IDEA

It has been long time since I have posted anything. After working for almost a year with one of the best and largest IT firm in world, this is what I have started realizing. Initially I used to be skeptical about my ideas which are little Out of the Box and Risky, but after looking them work in front of my eyes and getting users feedback I really feel good. This span of experience motivates me to put this post and I have started feeling little confident about my work. Feeling like have I taken a very small step towards becoming a Decent Designer and OK Problem Solver... :)

If anybody has some problem which can be solved by Design is always welcome. I will be glad to work on it... :)

MULTITASKING CAPABILITY OF OUR BRAIN (DUAL BRAIN CONCEPT)

Ever thought that you are studying some book and at same time you may be thinking of something else.How does our brain at one time think of other things also ?Do you know that our brain can also do multi-tasking just as computer does?

Actually our brain has tremendous potential to do different things at the same time ,we use only 2-3% of our brain in thinking.If we unleash this potential,our brain can do miracles that you may not have thought also.

So what do you mean by this multi-tasking or dual brain concept.I will explain you by simple example,you are reading some book about your studies eg science book or solving maths,at the same time you are also listening to radio or fm and at the same time you are singing the song which you are hearing.
So at the same time ,your brain is doing 3 things:
1.) understanding what you are reading from science book
2.) listening to song
3.) singing it

These are few comments from ma friend Bhushan's blog ... After reading this post I would like to add some points.

The examples mentioned above say reading books, listening song, singing song, etc. are the active applications ... I guess there are many other Background Applications which keep on running like ...
Application to breath, to keep our heart running, to keep our blood moving and then some anti virus apps which run after regular interval of time like, we get fever to refresh our immune system ... etc.

Also, there is some very different thing in our brain which is different from computer is that
Every same task in an application in computer is done in similar way, but this is not the case with our brain, it does same task everytime in different way. For example,
Everytime you say same word it will sound different, there has to be some small difference ... but this is not the case with computer ... and this potential of our brain is the most important one which makes it powerful than any super computer in some sense.

Another thought which came to my mind ... to make computers work faster:
We do multi-tasking ... but we do not use some code/resources run for one application to be used by another ... say for example ...
I have two applications running like VLC player and Windows Media Player ... now both applications have same almost similar controls but computer has to execute two different codes to run those similar controls ... now if suppose if we just execute some code for these Common Controls only once for these two similar applications we can make computer work more fast.

Similarly form ma friend's post example of revising previous lesson while reading current one can be a good idea, but I guess if We share resources of our brain and learn, We can make that Learning more Effective ... For example,
If suppose I have read some lesson and I have understood and now I am reading new lesson and while learning this new lesson I try to co-relate my previous lesson somehow and try to remember and try to learn it; it will make my learning, remembering and understanding much more effective and in real sense and would make an individual's brain more sharp.

These are just ma thoughts, I am not a computer geek but I always wanted to be one, at same time I am a simple Designer with Decent Creativity :)

Please do comment and let me know your ideas:

No compromise with work

Once again I learned this lesson, "Never ever compromise with your work." Its the only thing that keeps you going, even when everyone leaves you. It will always be with you and help you overcome every circumstance.

Blogging after long time :)

Whats going in each Hole-Digger's life? This is almost after one year of our IDC life.
Miss you guyz a lot. Take Care :)

Now here's an Idea which came to ma mind, why not have a social networking site which actually visualize this kind of short, quick and/or long term updates. We can even have gadgets which can be build using API's of exsisting social networking sites (if they provide). This is just one way to represent on map, there can be several ways to do this which can be much more facts revealing and interesting, this can take social networking sites one step ahead.

Unexpected Marketing Strategy

This post is just a thought that came to my mind.

Do you have passion to make a documentary film, which has very great concept and is technically strong. Surely you can win many awards but, making money out of it in country like India can be difficult task. Since most of people like proper masala movies and never care for good documentary films.

So, now what do you do? Simple, make a documentary which you want. Put in your heart and soul, perfect in every sense and most importantly with very small budget. Then release it in all other countires except our country India.

The film is now not just nominated for many international awards but, wins them. It makes a big name overnight. Next day morning it is seen in morning news papers, news channels, people and friends around start discussing about greatness of film. Now, its time to release the film in our country India. The documentary film which would have hardly made any collections is now expected to make great opening on box office.


This is nothing but, can be a story of film 'Slumdog Millionaire'. I dont know whether this was strategy of movie makers or not. But, this can be a good way to earn especially good from documentaries.

After wining Golden Globe awards, the film has got great or rather unexpected publicity especially with help of media. The film will be viewed by many people and is expected to make great opening. What do you think suppose the film was released in India before wining any awards? Surely it wouldn't have performed well at all interms of collections. But, just imagine the drastic hike in amount which will be earned by the movie now, and with same typical Indian audience who wouldn't have even known the name of the movie (Documentary Film) earlier, however good it would be.

Do you want to see DNA of your Blog?

http://www.baekdal.com/web2dna/
Well this is very good way of representing the richness of your blog or website. The idea can be developed and used to indicate the place of your website which is full of information, images, resource links, other DNAs or say websites to which our site is connected, etc.

I was shocked to see the richness of my blog. Here is the DNA representation of my blog:
Now, guess this blog .........

Easy right ......... this is one of the richest blog I keep visiting regularly. Yes, its Kumar's Blog.

Try another one,
This is DNA representation of sURi's blog. Shocked again right? How come this colourful blog does not have bright lines in it. Actually, the link mentioned is just the redirecting address, this is the reason why there are not many tags visualized. The DNA of sURi's blog can be seen in picture below:
Now, do you wana know how this works? So, here is principle of DNA analyzer:

WEB2DNA will take your website, analyze it, crunch it to little bits and spit it out as a graphic representation of a human DNA.

The brightness of the lines is determined by the importance of the tags in terms of structure.

• H1 is brighter than H2, which is brighter than H3.
• TABLE is brighter than TR, which is brighter than TD tags.
• Images and flash elements appear as 70% white.
• New HTML tags like STRONG and EM is brighter than older ones like B and I
• UL, OL and DL is brighter than their LI, DT, DD
• DIV layout is brighter than table layout

Basically a semantically rich site will appear brighter than one with messy old-style code.

You can also determine the richness of text on a site. A site the focuses on (text) content is one where the DNA patterns is large (filling many containers), but contains a lot of empty spaces between the lines (empty space is the individual words).
