Pune traffic - don't miss these sites

Just came across a website for Pune Traffic and Trasportation Forum. Seems to be a good collection of the information about traffic and transportation in the context of Pune city. So thought of putting together few sites that I feel could be useful for interested people:

Much of the world wide web is full of sarcasm & mocking of driving on Indian roads.

This site http://driving-india.blogspot.com/ has been created with the purpose of providing driver education and training rather than criticism.

At present I have produced and made available 17 driver education videos aimed at changing the driving culture on Indian roads are available. To watch the videos, please visit: http://driving-india.blogspot.com/

mujhe lagta hai signal todne waloka gadi ke numbar plate ke saath photo nilakker paper me chaapna chahiye aur unpe karvahi karni chahiye . nahi to puna ko delhi hone me wakt nahi lagega (blue line bus). eeske liye sab logo ne aage ana chahiye . khas kerke youngsters ne.unke pass to mobile-camera hota hi hai. photo nikalke sakal ko bhej de. fir sakal use publish karke police karvahi honi chahiye.uske bina ye thick nahi hoga. mere saamne kitne log signal todte hai. mere husband unpe jorse chillte hai par unhe to jaise jannat jane ki jaldi hoti hai .agar accident ho gaya aiseme to kutta nahi ayega uthane ke liye .aur nahi kisine aise logo ki madad karni chahiye jo janbujhkar signal todte hai . vo to khud bhi marenge aur kasoor na ho use bhi marvayenge.

What is "B A Y"?

Weekend time. I was playing with Mrunmay, one of his games - 3 letter words. Basically there are some paper strips having one letter printed on it and then there's a letter dispenser, which dispenses 2 letters at a time. The game is to make up a word with those two letters and one of the paper strips. It's too early for Mrunmay to know the spellings and obviously the job of finding out matching spellings was with me. After every round, I was telling him the meaning of the word formed, in the form of question / answers. Like "Do you know this word?", "Do you know it's meaning?" and wherever required giving him examples and/or translations. After few rounds, the dispenser gave us two letters: "B" and "A". The only possible combination left was the word "BAY". I started asking him the meaning... Me: "Do you know what is BAY?" Mrunmay: "Bay??" Me: "Yeah.. do you know what is the meaning of Bay?&q

Subscription Services

As the internet penetration increased over the last 2 decades, it also gave rise to digital subscriptions. The internet users slowly started developing trust in internet-based payments and that too on recurring payments. It probably started with the tech community using the recurring payment systems and slowly spreading that faith to non-tech-savvy users. There was also a phase when I started using the credit card for online transactions but wasn't comfortable storing the card details with the merchant. I used to enter the details every single time. (That is how I still remember the CC number that was in use at that time) In the late 2000's I was introduced to Ecom website development and since then it has been part of my professional as well as personal life. Over the years, I learned about the  PCI-DSS standard , and the extent to which the Ecom companies make an effort to protect consumer data. There have been instances of a data breach across the globe, but alon

Twiki to Notion

Image
I recently got started on Notion, primarily as part of my new project. I had seen the Notion used by one of my earlier customers but wasn't impressed by what I had seen. However, I had been hearing quite a few things about this on Twitter. And it constantly intrigued me as to why people are so ga ga over it.  I had been dabbling between Google Docs and MS OneNote for quite some time. Used docs when I had to write structured content, such as an idea, feature or some strategy. And when there was time to simply jot down some points or take notes from meetings or while reading books, I resorted to MS OneNote for its ability to create unstructured and structured content both. However, I was still feeling handicapped. The "organized" person in me was wanting more. So finally decided to learn more about "Notion". I took a different route this time. Instead of simply registering and starting using the app, I went through a couple of YouTube videos. And that was the best
