Get iron-wife all organized for her teaching today. Dropped her off at the Embassy Golf Link Business Park.
This park is the who's who in the IT world. Dell, Yahoo!, Microsoft, to name a few. It's funny with India's city infrastructure layout. Narrow roads, half ass construction, then boom, you turn around the corner and there is this ultra modern complex area called "Park". And across the road, there's this golf course hiding behind rows of low lying buildings nestled next to the busy main road.
We gained access to Microsoft building with heavy security. Guards everywhere, and all vehicles were subjected to the customary boot check. Funny, Yahoo! was just across the back door. If it were to be purchased, not far to move offices. Haha. Good thing I brought the Sony Viao with Vista Business operating system. Mac would not be too popular. Hee hee... Scary is I got direct Internet access just by plugging in the Ethernet cord. Wonder what kind of proxy or capturing or auditing is being done behind the scene.
Temperature is very comfortable today. It is about 20C or so. Sunny. So nice sitting in my hotel room, working on my computers, with all the creature comforts, a nice view and soaring eagles high up in the sky yet knowing full well, around the corner is a very dusty, bumpy road with cows and garbage piling up. Have passed that street couple times already going back to the hotel.
Side note: this website provides current time of different cities around the globe; but the best feature I think is the future time calculation. This works great for people scheduling meetings around the globe. And this provides a meeting planner. Cool!
