Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

I know this video has probably done the rounds a lot already, and chances are if you haven't seen the video yet you'd have at least read the transcript of this wonderful speech by Steve Jobs at Stanford in 2005.

There are so many important and inspirational things to this talk and I wanted to archive it here for my blog, and of course for those few who haven't come across it yet.





The text of the speech is available here.

Busy?

"The busiest people I have known in my life always have time enough to do everything. Those who do nothing are always tired and pay no attention to the little amount of work they are required to do. They complain constantly that the day is too short. The truth is, they are afraid to fight a good fight."
Page 51 of Pilgrimage, by Paulo Coelho

The Credit Crisis Visualized

A great visualization of the current financial crisis we find ourselves in.

Speechless

Literally speechless about what happened in Lahore today. Mortified at the fact that they were guaranteed security yet this still took place. So much for our guarantees now. I just don't know what else to say. I'm glad no one from their team got hurt and I salute the brave policeman who died protecting them, not to mention the driver who drove them away from the scene.

Things just seem to be going from bad to worse for us. For once, I hope the investigation reveals the perpetrators of this heinous act. Those animals should be caught asap and brought before the courts, and their masterminds should be exposed no matter who they are!
