To Zynga,with Love
While Zynga decides to set shop in India, here are some Indian Social Games i feel make sense for India.
- Book Cricket, #
- Signal Jumping and Escaping Cops, More cops you escape more levels you reach #
- Matki Phod- pic
- Catch the Rat in your dorm.
- Escape from street dogs(no this is not simple as Pac-Man)
- Kill a Mosquito
- Cross the road in traffic.
while Zynga says they may not completely focus on Indianizing social game , i think its worth the effort.
BTW did you know that Facebook Users Average 7 hrs a Month in January
Note to self 1: Pls. block those two new friends who just joined some name less,useless,annoying,irritating game and spamming my timeline.
There are only 1411 Tigers left, Now What?
Dear Aircel and NDTV , I am glad that both of you taken a HIGH decibel initiative to let people know that it high time we save our tigers and there are only 1411 tigers left, before they become extinct. And oh! not only that, you managed to get celebrities also together.What next,we now have a series ads apppearing on TV irrespective of if some one wants to see them or not.Glad you are doing that. Now WHAT?
While Aircel Managed to get 34,164 pledges, poor NDTV got only 437 . Poor NDTV there seems to be some problem with their SMS app ,its says undefined on the web, you think it is the reason for NDTV's poor performance.Now WHAT?
While you are spending all your money on improving your BRAND visibility and BRAND personality by informing us that we need to save tigers from being extinct , i ask Now WHAT?
I am writing this because you both have asked to spread the word and improve awareness among people, i did that , now WHAT?
BTW Aircel, i tried to join your roar, but i'm sorry your servers not able to take the load it seems,they went down.I 'll try to do that next time.
Now WHAT? After all this how do we know all our efforts are paid off.
Have we ensured that all the crores of money that our Finance ministry alloted is properly utilised ?
Have we safe gaureded our sancturies and ensuring that no more poaching/trouble happens?
Are we trying any of the modern medical/biotechnological to clone a species for the next generationa ala Hollywood style you know?
To be continued..the roar continues whenever possible
