Eco Friendly Crackers and Fireworks

So much so for the pro and anti Diwali campaign. Both arguments are strong point of views. However much to my amusement in all the arguments and counter arguments, never did I once across someone proposing a solution or taking the trouble to find way out.

If we can have eco-friendly food, manufacturing, automobiles, even Ganpati festival with eco friendly idols and a hell lot of other things then why not eco-friendly crackers & Fireworks - which keep the joy of Diwali intact and reduce the impact on environment. Though initially may prove cost intensive but given the scale at which it is celebrated it won't be difficult to break even.

I believe there are few option that do exists they need to be promoted, given sops and taken to the masses.


Hoping to see a environment friendly Diwali...may the festival lights keeping lighting our lives with joy.


Few things in the offing:

Making the messenger Apps Talk to One Another

What if one messaging app can send messages to another messaging app. That would be fun for the user. The messaging services still get to keep their users. Rather than installing and using multiple messaging apps one app will suffice. The one that you like and not what others are using and you get compelled to use because of others.  The road however may be a difficult one to take as the creator will have to integrate n number of messaging apps and get them to talk with one another. It will be one hell of an idea.I still feel it will be win-win for the user and the messenger apps. The user - because there is no need to install multiple apps. The App - they get to keep their customers The real winner however will be the one who creates the app...but then looking at the ease it creates for users don't think anyone will be complaining. The online messengers services had such apps for e.g. meebo through which you could access all messengers through one login id...time for mo

My First Salary

Can people share their experience about the first salary. For many people the first salary is really special and a moment to cherish, a stepping stone to achieving their dreams. To spending the money on themselves, to treating friends, to offering it to their parents, to some investing it...varied people have varied ways of celebrating the moment special. Probably the website can help people connect with each other and share what they actually did with their first salary. They can also act as mentor / counsel to others about what they need to do to earn their rightful first salary. How to negotiate, how to deal with the anxiety of being the first timer and other such insights which can be really helpful. Worth a thought but however needs to be explored further to bring it into reality.

Life After Retirement

What happens after retirement? Most people do plan for retirement. The planning however happens in terms of making financial provision so that one continues to be independent.  Quite a few do have their bucket list to be ticked off. Retirement offers them the perfect opportunity to accomplish it. A few dedicate themselves to social causes while a handful few try their hands at becoming an entrepreneur / offering their services as consultants. This though remains limited to people who have done exceedingly well in their career and have retired from senior managerial / top management posts. A major chunk however does not fit the bill. For them post retirement life turns into the challenge.  As the euphoria surrounding the retirement subsides they start finding themselves alone with time that's hard to kill. Though over a period of time they do get used life. It's come at a cost. A cost which not only those retiring have to bear but also the society at large. Consider th
