Let’s go Social, Virtually.
Social Media as per Wiki is
interactions among people in which they create, share, and exchange information
and ideas in virtual communities and networks. This is not as we in India historically
see the word Social. But things are changing faster now we consider this
virtual social Media as today’s society and everybody put his best picture as
his profile photo. People without giving a second thought putting their child's
pictures, wife's, parent’s, whole family's picture and making it public. I
don't understand why anyone want to show his family picture to an unknown
person whom he/she never met in his life. What the fun being social in this way
everybody seems to be in hurry to put his family history, social status,
personal life on Social Media. This media converted every single person into a
product and taught everybody without going into any B school 'the art of Marketing’.
Have you ever seen anyone putting his ailing mother's photo? the answer is never,
nobody does it because it downgrade their Market Value, Is this being social is
all about? People spend so much time on Social Media these days but they
themselves know it's all fake, how many people really give a thought about
anything after liking/sharing any material on Facebook. Now everybody's social quotient
is decided by how much time you spend on Social Media, how many friends you
have, how many likes you get in a picture you post. What an irony an average
person having more than 1000 friends on FB hardly knows 200 and hardly meet 10
in a month, how social is that? I salute to the concept of Social media, it
keeps people engage as if they are nothing else to do. Earlier it was said that
if government wants to divert people's attention from any issue they think to organize
a cricket series, people get engage and forget everything else. Now they don’t
need to think much Social Media is there.
Sooner or later charm of Social Media
will fade but i am sure they will invent something better to keep people engage.
So let’s celebrate and go social virtually in this new world.

Open letter to Hon. Gujrat High court on it's observation of Chetan Bhagat's novel being pornographic.
Dear sir ,
We have been reading Chetan Bhagat from last many years and you might be surprised to know that this very guy opened all new gates of opportunities for so many young brilliant writers and revived print industry in some ways . this guy en-rooted reading habit in so many young people , suddenly today we have been told that all that literature that we have read so many times and enjoyed ourselves every time we read were pornographic . Do you live in current time or do you see everything through spects of 70's or 80's . Dear sir look outside India has changed so are the thinking of its young people . We are more responsible more productive than people were a decade or two ago. You might be of thinking that young generation is no good and only your time was best in all sense . Chetan Bhagat is one of the best writer of today's time ,his writings on many subjects including on many social and political issues have been excellent Ans he is successful in inculcating a new way thinking in young India. So by your judgement of seeing his work as pornographic, I humbly disagree.
