Ranjith’s Castle

Today morning, suddenly my mind called me check the insurance date of my friend’s Honda city which I am using for the past two weeks. I was stunned to view the dashboard showing a empty set. I actually don’t drive bikes without papers.

From today morning, I developed little fear to drive this CAR. Only belief is that police men won’t stop cars unless it is midnight.

I am very blind to this fact. I was driving around the car  without any hassle/fear for the past two weeks. But when I came to know that is missing, it is really a scary to drive the car.

The same fact applies to everything we experience in life. We will be happy when we are blind to some facts. The real pain comes when it becomes visible.

Be blind and Be happy !!!

Hogenekkal is the water fall present in the border of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. The river kaveri flows via these hills into Tamil Nadu. I was been to this place last year, But I did not get a chance to move over the river. But this time when we visited the place last week, we made it. It was really a excellent experience. We were a crew of 13 members. We hired a couple of boats in addition to a cook who provided us with an excellent food with the country side chicken and Fish fries. The food was as excellent as the river. The river was a very narrow one with both sides banked by hills. The water level was little  below normal. There were a lot of water falls here and there on both the side of the hills. The boat-walla told that at times when there is a better water level, the boats cannot go near the falls. The beauty is one side of the hill belongs to Karnataka and the other side is for Tamil Nadu. The following image was the top view from Wikipedia.

Overall it was a great trip.

I was stopped by a signal in Chennai at a mile away. The traffic is so huge on my side that the vehicles are moving at snail’s pace. When I reached the signal, I noticed that the amount of traffic flow from the side from which I am traveling is much larger than the once flowing from the different artery. The roads are such that this information of the traffic imbalance is not visible to the police men. As a result, the signal and the policemen showed no difference in the traffic regulation. It was the same time sliced flow. The data is not passed on to the correct place to act upon.

I also thought this seems to be a good idea for writing a product using all software and sensors to notify the police men at the signal and the signal as well to regulate or time the flow from each side according to the traffic flow rate.

Products apart, I feel this is the same situation with respect to the Human living. Our knowledge about our co-humans reduce as we go out and out in the concentric circles. Mani commented some time back that the affinity of our living and the decisions we take will be at the benefit of the people at the inner concentric circles. Yes this seems to be true that we are getting blinder and after some time it will be dark, as we don’t have data from the outer circles.

I am expecting the world to move to the next way of doing things. This is nothing but the usage of the mobile technology and mobile phones for everything. One such industry is providing learning solutions on to the mobile. I came across a companies providing such applications.

Mad Mobile Software

It provides downloadable softwares that can be installed on to your mobile phones and can be used when you are on the move. The beauty of the application is that it don’t connect to the Web after installation. It is self built and you don’t have to pay any additional GPRS bills except the once you spent while downloading. It gives you papers for CAT/GRE/GMAT/SAT Examinations. I am not sure how they are gonna make money, as they are giving these contents free of cost for the Users. Mobility is the one that is when we waste a lot of time. Softwares like this are going to help us save a lot of time.
