Jaiku powered by Google App Engine

Google is ready to LAUNCH Jaiku on Google App Engine. Jaiku is a social networking, micro-blogging and lifestreaming service comparable to Twitter. Jaiku was founded in February 2006 by Jyri Engeström[2] and Petteri Koponen from Finland and launched in July of that year. It was purchased by Google on October 9, 2007.It was down from very long time just after the acquisition by Google. Users thinking that the Google forgot the service. Presently it is showing the message:

Folks, we're offline for the weekend for server maintenance.Now's a good time to talk to someone you love.

Now, it is time to DANCE. But it has taken so long period to start as Twitter is the only near and dear rival of jaiku so it given chance to tiwiter to EXPLORE the possibilities.....

But I think there is very short time remaing when we'll see new jaiku, may be services will be changed aur not, but now it will be powered by Google backbone, which give us more relability an security.

For a proof just try traceroute (TRACERT) command or click here. The end of ROUTE will at Google server only.

Palsar Mania : New Advertisement of Pulsar 220cc

I and my younger bro both are crazy fans of Pulsar. Today I seen Pulsar Mania ad of 220cc, after that I decided to wrote this blog. Bajaj Pulsar has defined the performance bike category in India. Ever since its launch, Pulsar's communication too has always focused on building a distinct identity and attitude for the brand. Strating from the launching with "definetily male" and currently it's last "FreeBiking" campaign aired in April 2007, this new campaign is the most spectacular the brand has ever done. Tagged as "PulsarMania", the campaign demonstrates the Pulsar's power, aggression and grace in a never seen before manner.



Bajaj Auto has recently launched a new commercial for Bajaj Pulsar 220 DTS-Fi, called as Pulsar Mania. The commercial was shot in Cape Town and the stunt team comprised of few of the best stunt riders in world, including (world no 2) AC Farias (European stunt riding champion) and Matte Griffin. Some details :





Client: Bajaj Auto Ltd.


Agency: Ogilvy & Mather, Mumbai


Creative Team: Abhijit Avasthi, Manoj Shetty, Rajneesh Ramakrishnan


Production House: Velocity Films, South


AfricaDirector: Lourens Van Rensburg


Music: Paul Norwood, Audio Militia





I personally feel it is fantastic commercial ad.
