From the rumors and hints being dropped, India will have another reason to celebrate, maybe as early as this weekend. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the new torch bearer deserves this honor. But before we go all out, let's remember the person who started it all, when the climate was very different. Back in 2005, Narain Karthikeyan became the first Indian driver to get a seat in F1. And 2005 was a very different time period. Sponsors in India were still weary of the international scene, there was no Force India F1, there was no Indian GP ...
Google has finally reacted to the FB acquisition of Friendfeed, by launching Google Buzz, it's version of Twitter, Facebook and Friendfeed all in one. Just like with the launch of the iPad, the world went crazy, for a little while, I did too. People like Jason Calacanis are way too excited and if you follow me on twitter, you should already know that I do not agree with his view. Not everyone is on Gmail, even if they are, not everyone uses all its features. Case in point, my parents. Between them, they have 3 email accounts on ...
With Schumi going to race for Mercedes GP, he essentially stole the headlines. At least in the rest of the world. While I'm excited that he is back, I'm torn between picking him, giving up my allegiance for Ferrari and Massa. It's as difficult as picking a Belgian beer at Monks Kettle. To make matters more shitty, Narain is now talking about Nascar. No seriously. I do understand that there are lot of idiots fans who pay good money to watch people drive in circles. Add the possibility of tapping the Indian market for fans, advertising opportunity and having the ...
A couple of days ago, I wrote about how F1 might turn into the new A1GP, if Button decides to go the McLaren route. And it looks like that's happening while I type. Earlier today, James Allen had this to say on twitter See update on Button story, reports he's on verge of signing £6m a year deal with McLaren Later this event PST, like clockwork, The Guardian ran the story. Add that piece of the news with Brawn GP, which will now be Mercedes GP, are looking to sign Nick Heidfeld. Mercedes GP have already signed Rosberg, who races under the German ...
Apple took cellphones to the next level with the iPhone. Tom, Dick, Harry and my grand mother have one and they created a great revenue generation scheme with their apps. One of the parts where they screwed up was with the camera. If you are one of the few people, who does not own one, a google search will tell you about how bad the camera is, so I'm not getting into the details. To give you a rough idea, I've always found myself in the "Never edit a photo" crowd. I took pride in composing "good" photos and sticking ...

Yesterday the news outlets reported that the 2009 Champion Jenson Button was on a tour of the McLaren HQ.
While it sounds like a dream team at McLaren and without any doubt would make for an exciting season next year, I have doubts about this in the long run.
The reason is simple, I for one do not want F1 to turn into a World Cup.
While it can be argued that Super Aguri and Mallya were the first ones to “introduce” the concept, having a Japanese / Indian …
