I decided to pick one of old my old articles that appeared on Rediff.com a few years ago. This is really one of my favourites for the simple, fun format in which I wrote it for the younger audience it was meant for...

The piece was actually written via sms prompts that I saved for myself, driving to work a day after an event we were managing. The event, a virutal book launched was itself the culmination of a series of mad things on that project - a commemorative book that took long to complete; leading to the idea of a multimedia presentation, as the virtual unveiling of the book; a presentation that was executed in less than 48 hours, from concept to completion, and with brilliant effect; and then, files that went corrupt and other assorted electronic disasters even as the countdown had begun! And then, it all became smooth again, just a few MINUTES before start! :)

The event itself is another story. For now, hope you enjoy the piece - got an event to promote?
