> 140 chars

Twitter is a great place for us to express our views, opinion, critics etc as long as we keep it short. So when you are on the run or need to shout out loud it is great. However sometime when you have enough coffee and need to write bit more you need a proper blog.  I guess now I need to find that cup a coffee {or more} and share more than 140 chars :-). Hmmmmm, that is going to be interesting in a world where we only have 24 hours in a day.

AWS Tech Chat

About  few weeks back I started listening to AWS Tech Chat by Dr. Pete Stanski and Russell Nash on SoundCloud. They are solutions architects of AWS from Australia. Since started listening to their podcats I can now ignore the emails from AWS about their product launch notifications. They cover a most of these latest product updates and deep technical insights into AWS products and services. It is less marketing more technical (otherwise I wouldn't have listened to it). So far they are doing a great job, and if you haven't listened to it before I strongly suggest you give it a go and I am sure you will like it. You might also be able to crack some of the wording Dr. Pete use for URL (urrl) and AMI (amy). It is fun and interesting. I guess my question to Dr. Pete and Russ is when are you gents going to cover AWS Kubernetes offering? given Google and Microsoft are talking a lot about it these days (surprising to without annoying me).

Comments by Brendon McCullum after the T20WC2014 game

Excerpt from Brendon's comments after the T20 match against Sri Lanka. "We knew there was a lot of hard work to go,"Brendon McCullum says, "Knew we needed to be positive in the first six. It was a bit dry than we expected and Herath and Sachi, the way they bowled was outstanding. They blew us away with about eight wickets for some 10 runs. Wouldn't say there was extra pressure, it was a quarter-final anway. We just didn't adapt ourselves and played some mindless cricket. We took some poor option and as a result of that we're on the plane home" What I like most about Brendon's comments is that he is not blaming the umpires, pitch conditions or other silly excuses. I think Kiwi team will be a great team to watch during the WC2015, and I am sure they will do well. Like I said in my previous post that I would have love to see both teams getting to the semis, however it was impossible. I take this opportunity to wish them all the very best for th

The San Francisco Fallacy by Jonathan Siegel

Over the long weekend in Melbourne, Australia I had the opportunity to read The San Francisco Fallacy by Jonathan Siegel.  It was a great book to read, I am glad that I had the opportunity and time to read it. The key reason I liked the book is that while the author Johnathan gave the titled San Francisco Fallacy, the fallacies applied in almost any startup in any city no matter where you are.  He touches on the ten (10) most commonly found fallacies in Startup culture and clearly articulate why they are a fallacy with some of his own experience. I have applied some of his finding in my own experience and he is spot on, highly accurate like he had spoken to me about it. This will be one of the books that I will read at least twice a year to remind myself about the fallacies we all fall in without thinking too much. Highly recommend anyone involved in Startup, especially if you are a founder or co-founder to read this book. I am sure you will find it highly valuable.
