* Once again at Mumbai for some days (Till Monday). I went to Pune for office work yesterday and Volvo bus driver was hell slow that it took more than 5 hours to reach there (instead of normal 3/3.5 hours). But, finally work was done due to nice support of people. (8 hours bus traveling out of last 11 hours is really fun!)
* Yet to add pictures from my new camera to gallery 
* I am planning to allocate more ‘focus’ timing to my packages, as gnome-orca, ldtp needs more attention. Probably co-maintainers or adding it to pkg-gnome svn is good idea. And, I am doing that soon!!

We have had a good start to MainBhiBookie. More than 200 people have already registered in the last 3 days and there are a lot of lineups added. People are challenging each other and we have been getting good reviews from early users. The World Cup has just started, so if you missed taking on a challenge about the world cup matches with your friends, start today.

Attention to detail is what distinguishes an average performer from the best. I was sticking up address labels on some postcards yesterday, and a friend showed shortcuts! Rather than peeling off each label, we could take the whole sheet, stick the edge of the label on the edge of a table, and then quickly take off each label and paste it on the postcard. At the same time, pasting the label using both hands and positioning it just above the line that separated the content area from the address area on the backside of the postcard would give the best alignment.
This was a simple task, but because we could break it down into smaller tasks, find out the best way to do each task, and work as a team, we could do the job much faster. Attention to individual items and thinking about small details gave us the edge. As they say, devil lies in the details.
I am surprised to see that so many people don’t really pay attention to details. Even on important tasks. It just doesn’t occur to them! Do you pay attention to small things in your tasks?

Are you a cricket fan? Do you challenge your friends about the match outcomes? We do that very much during the World Cup! So we setup a website to let you also do that! MainBhiBookie allows you to select lineup of three batsmen, three bowlers, man of the match and winning team. You then challenge your friends for selecting their lineup. Once the match is over, the system will calculate and award points. And you will come to know who amongst your friends won the challenge.
The site is launched today in beta mode, one day before the world cup begins. We are going to keep enhancing it as we go. I invite you to register and start playing! Let’s see who’s better!
By the way, there is no money involved in challenging your friends! There is no money you have to pay to the site either. You can be on the first page of MainBhiBookie if you are scoring better than others! And you can easily invite your friends to setup their own lineups and challenge with you!
Start by registering on Main Bhi Bookie!
