I have recently joined Microsoft US and have moved to US. So no more travelling often between India and Redmond. I haven't yet decided if I am going to move out of GWB. I think I would continue to occasionally post to my blog. ArunBala from our team has also started blogging, other than that few of the other guys on our team who are already on the web are Rupreet, Harshit, ArunPG. I am not sure we would probably like to setup a team blog or not or whether we would be blogging about the work we do ......

Being a music buff I am also planning to get one of these so that where ever there are people who share the same interests in music as I do we all can listen together.

Every night select all delete is the mechanism unless I know which ones I need to read)My MVPs.org ......

I just now tried to cut paste a table from one of my emails onto an OneNote note item. It did not copy it properly (The table formatting was misssing). I got suprised and went on to check the rest of the formatting menu options and insert menu options and found that you cant insert a table. Now I am wondering why such a feature was not provided. look at me I use OneNote not only to maintain my notes but also to maintain texts from various places like my emails, snippets from documents etc..etc.. ......
I was going through MS case studies when few funny memories hit me. The case study that made me travel back in time was this. The case study talks about how MSN India delivers online content across diverse mobile devices using the .NET fx - the solution for which was done by Vishwak Solutions. Vishwak Solutions is run by one of the Indian MSDN Regional Director Mr.Venkatrangan.
