Friday, 7 October 2011 12:54 by Viju Cherian
The news media around the world had two major technology stories on Thursday. Steve Jobs, CEO, Apple, passed away at 56 after a prolonged battle with cancer.

Debunking Social Media ROI

Thursday, 29 September 2011 11:36 by Vinoth Shankaran
It’s become the huge discussion in social media marketing: “What’s the ROI? Can we measure it?” Or in a much more obvious way to put: “Does it work? Is it Return on Investment or Return of Ignorance? Social media is not free. It takes time; it takes resources; it ta... [More]

A 'short trek' till Shangri-La

Wednesday, 20 July 2011 10:05 by Viju Cherian
Seeing me huffing and puffing an elderly woman who was descending the steps said to her friend, “He’ll be disappointed when he realises the temple is closed. It’s 10 past one.” While this might have deterred others, I was too tired to care. I held on to the red-coloured rai... [More]

If it's China, It's an Exception

Thursday, 30 June 2011 13:37 by Viju Cherian
That China is a superpower and a growing economy is a no-brainer. The whole world, and that includes the United States of America, watches in awe how Beijing is spreading its tentacles to possibly every part of the globe. China has got interests in almost every part of the world and this caters to t... [More]

Internet cannot bridge this divide

Saturday, 2 April 2011 07:55 by Viju Cherian
Technology is making the world a smaller place. While this is true, it is also true that no matter how small we try to make it, there are certain hard realities that refuse to vanish. They remain hard put and from time to time reinforce their existence. Yesterday was one such day. I realised a r... [More]

Egypt at the crossroads

Friday, 11 February 2011 21:20 by Viju Cherian
The third American president Thomas Jefferson once said: “Every generation needs a new revolution”. It can be safely said that he did not have the Egyptians in mind when he said it and, here is the irony, he would have not dreamt that America would be a reason why in a far off nation i... [More]

Give credit to Islamabad

Thursday, 10 February 2011 02:26 by Viju Cherian
The greatness of a thug is not in hitting the opponent but in having the courage to receive a blow. The sight of the underdog standing up to the topdog (who is also a bully) gives goose bumps. And this is the feeling one has in seeing Islamabad standing up to Washington’s threats for not relea... [More]

Paes, Bhupathi and the 'lost' years

Saturday, 29 January 2011 19:13 by Bala Murali Krishna
After a long time, I spent an evening watching tennis on television — watching Leander Paes, 37, and Mahesh Bhupathi, 36, lose the men’s doubles final to the Bryan twins, 32, in the Australian Open in Melbourne. It was good to see the ‘Indian Express’ play together again,... [More]
