Federer is Champ again at US Open 2008!!!

Well...Federer did it again..and for the fifth consecutive time..he is US open champion again.
Winning any grand slam is no small achievement and doing it for 5th time back to back is to much asking...when Nadal was not comfortable against Andy Murray in semis..Federer had shown his class while beating Murray in straight sets. some of the single backhands were awesome and a treat for the eyes..Now lets see how he pulls his game and shows his best skills next year..

His win at US open has taken the rivalry of Federer and Nadal to the next level...Who will keep .. la ela .. the number one position.Nadal who had to wait for so many years and had to be satisfied with second best for so many years or Federer who has just gained back his momentum...

An era in making. Lets see what happens next!!!

ROCK ON is Rocking!!!

Last Wednesday, I watched Rock On. Wow...what energy...Farhan Akthar was amazing and brilliant at the same time. Acting.Singing.Rock...what else you need from a artist...after proving himself as a Director in movies like Dil Chahta Hai and Lakshya, he has also shown that he is good at acting as well. Farhan is a true rock star. :)

A good movie with right editing, a fresh story and nice to watch sets behind the performing singers on stage. After a long time it was like a fresh experience rater than like watching a movie. Arjun Rampal once again looks great with his stunning looks and long locks.

Hope to see more movies in bollywood like this...This is really a ROCK ON!!

Go India Go...

As software industry maturing, it is need of hour to bring focus to the business or business units. till few year back, entire organizations used to work under one business units. As industry materalized and competition increased, there was need to bring clarity and focus to various business processes, domain and busniess units.

This has resulted in evolution of CoE i.e. Center of excellence. CoE has enabled organizations to bring focus to various processes, domains and allowing distribution of work across various CoE resulting in more gross margins and higher ROI to organizations and in effect to the end customers. Lot of organizations have setup their CoE, that are part of the organization but sometimes operate on their individual vision, culture and specialization. Some of the areas where CoE are built are Testing services, Data warehousing centers, Professional services, Technical support etc. With this organization have much more control and focus and at the same time allow them to execute projects smoothly with collaboration to various CoE. Project tasks are distributed across CoE or if any specialized service needs to be provided, it is done from respective CoE.

This will definitely increase the efficiency of the delivery process and will certainly create new dimensions in which business can be conducted in future.
