Power of Viral Marketing

was working on a plan for one of my clients and came across this article that helped me finalize my plans

Viral marketing is very quickly becoming an effective and low-cost method of getting a message out to consumers. Like many marketing concepts in use on the Internet today, viral marketing leverages the collaborative nature of the Internet.
On a conceptual level, the term "viral marketing" can be used to describe any marketing technique that positions a group of consumers as advocates for a brand or product. Typically, though, viral marketing is executed as a message that is disseminated through email and forwarded indefinitely by the folks who receive it. (By Tom Hespos November 2, 2000)

More Weddings

Was supposed to go for LK's and Bincy's wedding but decided against it coz the boss mentioned dont come back if you dont come to office today.

So spent the day in office nearly fell off to sleep twice,

What, What, What to do!!!

Dev's Wedding

Well the entire gang got together for M C's and Maya's wedding, was good fun,

Though taking the group photo was more than i could stomach, Didnt know it takes 20 minutes to assemble 30 people,

Had a blast, the booze was good, the company better and the food the best.

how fresh does fish get

Well 2nd day at my parents place, had a craving for the fish, I asked the cowboy he said wait a minute young man takes a sickle and says follow me,

steps in to the river and then vola fresh fish

I wish i could do that then wouldnt have to work just catch fish and eat.

Cant think straight

ALL I WANT IS A BED

On the bus to kerala

Well nice Raj Travels bus, ticket booked online, 9 hours and this is what you get.

2 smelly feet,

2 tired people

and

1 lousy movie

New Years

Happy lots of good friends around. Everythings was quite good ,

I think the picture says it all .

Well adios amigoes,(think its all those mexican shooters)

HAPPY NEW YEAR

We went for Anu's wedding had a blast and then a tire puncture. One thing is for sure that whisky and tire changing dont mix. Again did the usual event stuff, Fought with three flower guys and one cake bugger,

One thing is for sure your past will never be hidden from your future nor your present. does this make sense, trying to figure out myself, please let me know if you do find out.

MCC re-lived

Well its the 29th and i have taken the Better Half to where i met some of my really good friends, saw selaiyur hall it was really fun,

Check out the photos, though some of you might not understand the change in pictures

one late breakfast, lunch with Ganpathy Papa and pre wedding party

Well reached Madras(still cant get myself to call in Chennai) Went straight to Shilfa's place, washed up straight to Meet the biggest of all belly, Uncle S, had a blast though the waiters at Golden dragon must be scratching their nuts. well the bugger held our a bottle of drinking water as if it was some expensive wine. Uncle s goes what vintage, the guy nearly dropped the bottle coz he couldnt stop laughing,
dinner was fun met the entire extended family though cant say all were happy to meet us.

Christmas

Well woke up and felt unexpectedly lonely, it was cold every one had gone some where or the other. I WAS FEELING REALLY LONELY>

I just remebered i had to cook lunch i had invite Philly over for some fish, pasta and wine,

twas fun though the wine i think was adultrated.

so just continued with the beers,

Burp, that was a nice lunch. GOING TO SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP

Christmas eve Dinner at M&M's

Well had a lovely dinner though the amount of wine i tippled in could have put a couple of tankers to shame. At M&M's there was, Megha and Mesh obviously and then some of their friends Shilpa, Shivani and Chang, The biryani was yum, I can see that even if Megha is Punj she has some andhra culture flowing some where or the other,

later in the night get a call from Ranjit, he told me what happened. Excerpts from his blog

Somehow, I managed to get a seat on a seriously low budget bus. It was the worst ride of my life. I thought the bus was going to snap in half most of the way, and being the lowest of low budget bus services, owned and operated by the state, we stopped in all the digyest food pits on the way. Granted, all the food I ate on the triop proved to be harmless, and actually quite good, but the settings were grim.
Get this - the 15 hour bus ride from Bangalore to Cochin cost about 300 Rupees, which is close to 6 or 7 dollars. The two hour taxi ride from Cochin to my Grandfather's house cost 2,500 Rupees, or around 55 dollars. I think I mentioned before that India is a place of stark contrasts.

I did excuse my self from the desert which i heard was yum, see i knew i would start fighting this battle i knew it would be tough. but i will win some day

Ps. I never clicked that photo and you will know why only on a "NEED TO KNOW BASIS

two more days to go Christmas

Well the better half reach end destination finaly in one piece and didnt fall of the train. Got invited for Christmas eve dinner by Megha and Mesh. Finally someone thinks i am well behaved and can be invited...........

Got a call from Cuz Ranjit, Hes coming home though he wants me to get him a ticket to kerala on the 24th of December, Thats like asking me to search for a particular grain of rice in India's biggest rice ware house,

Well anyway cuz Ranjit landed up. played a couple of songs on his guitar and then went searching for a ticket back to his Granddad's place.

had a couple of beers and hit the sack, at 4 i woke up and the dude was still watching tv.

he he 22nd Dec

I cant think of a name for todays post,

well nothing to do and cant think of a single thing to write,

Part two of the day and still can think of a single thing to write,

forget it no more writing,

Better half's less the better Journey

Well what to say, the better half has to leave for Nagpur, and yours truly decided he will run away from office to pick her up and drop her at te station.

Reached the station and was wondering why she need to 3 bags for 4 days, the math just never ever seemed to make sense, well with time and experince being there the longest, i knew the safest thing to do would be not to raise any questions,

Well dosent matter i am still in one peice and at peace, so no complaints,

post hiatus

well its been quite a time since i have written, dont ask why, coz excuses galore would be thrown at you faster than those scud missiles that were flying around at the time of the 1st gulf war.

cheerio will catch you guys in some other eon of time

Creative destruction, introduced by the economist Joseph Schumpeter, describes the process of industrial transformation that accompanies radical innovation. In Schumpeter's vision of capitalism, innovative entry by
entrepreneurs was the force that sustained long-term economic growth, even
as it destroyed the value of established companies that enjoyed some degree
of monopoly power

THE QUESTION IS DO WE NEED IT OR DO WE REALLY NEED IT
