CORPORATE LESSON NO.1
A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, “Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?” The crow answered: “Sure, why not.” So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow, and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit… and ate it.
Moral of the story is: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
CORPORATE LESSON NO.2
A turkey was chatting with a bull. “I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree,” sighed the turkey, “but I haven’t got the energy.” “Well, why don’t you nibble on some of my droppings?” replied the bull. They’re packed with nutrients.” The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree. The next day, after eating more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fortnight, there he was proudly perched at the top of the tree. Soon he was spotted by a farmer, Who promptly shot the turkey out of the tree.
Moral of the story is: Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won’t keep you there.
CORPORATE LESSON NO.3
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold, the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him!
Moral of the story is:-
1) Not everyone who drops shit on you is your enemy.
2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
3) And when you’re in deep shit, keep your mouth shut!

Work work work .. day n night .. nonstop .. we have to survive .. the ask is wat is killing us with a big dose of cynicism n madness.its kinda jungle. all drowning in quicksand. Its through the small crevices in the solid lives that there is a ray of hope. After a hectic arduos boring day, meeting deadlines with unspoken cacophony of long drawn silences, all one needs is a bit of entertainment, this was the time when i found a room in Yahoo's chat which had a wonderful environment where gems from diffrent part of india expose their singing talent. the lot includes aarzuu20, cobra101010, avi, nirad, abhishek, rashboy, n lot more …twas really good time .. one gal with id aarzuu20 really impressed me by her great selection of songs n the way she sung them … Great voice .. immaculate … superb. keep it up … infact, aarzuu.. i would suggest u to get some professional training. u are really god gifted .. all the best.
Our dreams finally kicked off… dunno where it ll all go but these days it keeps me occupied day n night. we plan to shoot off primarily three areas of software industry.
1. 3d Computer Graphics - 3d Graphics / Video special effects Rendering / Opengl Game Programming
2. Application Development - Artificial Intelligence supported applications(mostly)
3. E - Learning in India - Promoting e-learning solutions
One of these which drives our vehicle is the first one ofcourse, but that needs a lot of patience, time, energy and commitment. According to our recent projections, we will need atleast one year to accomplish ourselves as well prepared team and undertake a big project. Right now we are focussing on building a First person shooter pushing the taste of patriotism which drives indian soldiers like from the film 'Lakshya' by Farhan Akhtar starring Hrithik Roshan. Though India has been in the frame of software fraternity, n is known for being an important contributor to the software comminity all over the world, hasnt been able to focus on the Game industry, when it comes to records. We also plan to use our software skills in producing good special effects for videos n movies, n all this demands lil time and capital.
E-learning, well this is something which i wasnt too much into… until Vikram pulled n pushed me into it. Vikram has a good bunch of around 1500 members on his site www.vidyaweb.com devoted to DOEACC course in India. He is a great fellow n wants to do something fruitful for the society. Now.. how I met him, is an interesting story which today I wont get into. We oughta give evolve to a better species than we are .. n that can be only done if ppl are more connected, attentive n ready to take responsibilities. E-Learning is someting that he feels, is our duty to promote to build a better awareness in the society.
How it all started :
I was in my first year of graduation when i got access to a pc, playing games … all sort of games was my favourite passtime, sometimes i wasnt able to finish all levels, this is when i started training them, n eventually got interested in creating loaders, n runtime patchers which involved a lot of reading n experimenting with Softice.My favourite set of chisel and hammer were IDA and Softice.
I was suggested to try my hands on programming by my brother-in-law. Since i had tasted the blood of software security, i was pulled into it completely. This was the time when I started programming Assembly. Yahoo's Hacker's lounge was a hangout where i met fellow ppl with same taste.However, rarely would u find something worthy discussed over there ..nothing much technical, except a few.
Neverthess, it wasnt a bad experience, after all it was a lounge .. a place where we rested n killed our time also killed some bugs, crashed some computers … My daily schedule started n ended sitting right infront of the computer, posting at boards, taking challenges, reading articles, writing software n surfing internet.It was at one of such forums where a challenge involved artificial intelligence attracted me a lot towards it… i spent most of my time getting the heck of it .. but i must say .. the time was worth spending. things really paid off - since the feeling of creating somthing like that was an achivement … that spl feeling cant be put into words.
So this is how i was pulled into something which now drives me the whole day - better than any fuel around.The punch line is Stay hungry, Stay foolish.
