...I am back.
Facebook/twitter have done to blogpost what electric engines did to steam engines. Well, almost. Those who are on my facebook would know well how 'regular' I am with my updates (at times, irritatingly so). However, my journey of writing (random musings - boring or otherwise) started with blogpost. Hence I am kinda drawn back where I started. After a long moratorium, the blogging resumes.
Talking of facebook, the movie "The Social Network" was quite an eye-opener for me. While Mark Zuckerberg's creative genius was wow-inducing, his apparent stealth and deception was equally eww-inducing. Everytime I log onto facebook, I feel as if I am entering a chor-bazaar (a term used in India for a place where thieves sell their loots). While the comparison might be extreme, you get the drift. I won't be going into the movie review but suffice it to say that Facebook is successful because of Zuckerberg but it exists because of the Winklevoss brothers (forgot the 3rd guy's name).
The bigger question that lingers in the mind is: What do people do when being unethical is not illegal?
