In God's own country...

It was time for me to take a step in a new direction as I moved at the beginning of this month from the incubation product that was M3 (Microsoft Mobile Media) to a small team in IDC under the big banner of Live Search. All good things must come to an end and so had to the great journey that I had with M3. The first year of my career... the best I could have hoped for. But given that obvious finality the least we could do was to go out with a bang and thats what we did with a gigantum ship party (considering we were a small team working on a V1 prototype)!

The ship party came a little late... almost couple of weeks after I have already been into my new team but it was worth it. Destination Kumarakom in the heart of Kerala... the Venice of India.

At this point I will go against my nature and let the shutter clicks do the describing... after all a picture is worth a thousand words!

On a concluding note, just want to say to everyone continuing with M3 or joining new and to everyone else who are taking up new assignments outside of M3 I wish the best to all of you. Honestly feel I have grown a lot over the last one year from interactions with each and every one of you especially Bill, Bindu, Jim, Apurv, Mayur, Prashanthi, Raghu, RK & Mobina. It was a pleasure and a honor to work alongside each one of you and it has been a very memorable fun-filled journey for me to have you guys more as friends than just colleagues. Hope I will get opportunities to work together with many of you guys again in the near future. Till then adieu!
