Check out some cool pictures from Blog Camp Pune. It was held at Symbiosis, Pune, India in June 2007.
Rediff.com was the title sponsor of this "unconference".
We also launched our new product rediff blog showcase on this occasion.
Me(Krishna Reddy) and my colleagues Jasmeet Singh, Amol Mujumdar, Gaurav etc attended and presented the showcase.
In fact, this camp had inspired me for starting this Krish Wonders blog.
I have given my old Art of living blog to Harshal Jadhav for maintaining, so that I can concentrate on this one.

Hyderabad blues and "celebrations"
On 31st December, I had got up at 5 am (ooops!!!!) to pick up my nieces Snigdha and Jnanadha from Lonavala. Getting up early was not as difficult as I imagined it to be, especially because I got myself woken up by my aunt from Hyderabad through phone!
Not that I had never woken up early but it has always been tough task to rise early.
Well, getting up in "Brahmamuhurt" has always been a dream still unfulfilled.
Ideally every day I would get up at 3:30 am every day, then go for jog, come back and take shower, then do Yoga and then Meditate before I start my daily activities!
Well, that is an ideal situation. In reality, I get up late (don't ask me how late; its embarrassingly late that can't be mentioned here), freshen up and rush to office. Even the combing hair part I do using the mirror in the home lift.
I want to change this but dunno when this will happen!
I went to Dadar to catch a Volvo for Lonavala. No cabbie was ready to come to Dadar at that time probably because its close to my home. In Lonavala I picked up my cute kids, thanked the teacher for taking care of them. She postponed the picnic plans of the rest of the group for one and half hours till I arrived, just to take care of Snigdha and Jnanada probably because I had sms'ed her to keep the children under safe custody in the resort while they leave for sight seeing.
Then we came back to Bombay and cabbed up to my home where we freshened up and went to Heena Solanki's (Henna Solanki) home for lunch.
Till then they did not eat anything other than Lays chips (which I should not have given as they hardly ate anything in lunch later) in the cab . Thank God I found out from my aunt the previous day about her grand kids' food likings. One of them likes orange Lays while the other likes the blue ones.
Well, I took them to Heenaji's home because Snigdha wanted home made food and also I wanted to get her blessings for the kids.
Then I showed them "Jab we met" movie in my laptop. I had specially loaded that movie the previous day as the kids had specifically asked me to get it. So the happy girls wanted not to go anywhere else but to watch the Shahid Kapoor movie. Halfway through the movie I called them to get ready for airport.
Then happened the craziest thing you could ever conceive!
I went to airport to drop them but, upon going there the kids said, "Chinnanna (uncle), you also please come with us to Hyderabad".
They what did I do?
Without a second thought, I walked up to the ticket counter and bought my air ticket on the spot and joined them to celebrate new year in Celebrations food villa in Jubilee hills!
During the flight, Jnani continued to watch the movie while Snigdha kept herself busy in aerial photography.
Their dad (my cousin-in-law) inaugurated a new pub "Black Hole" in the dazzling "Celebrations" on the occasion of the new year celebrations.
zzzzzzz.... sleep time! Rest later :)
