About Me

I love to interact and express my opinions. This blog is my space for expressing myself and also my digital diary and aggregator, where i save stuff which is useful to me and hopefully to my readers.

Hope u like the stuff i write about or link to. I welcome your comments and inputs.

I am also a big tech freak and enjoy reading about new stuff, reading tech reviews on anandtech and toms hw . I love opening up all my electronic and electrical goods and have managed to put them back together, in working order 95% of the times.

I love nature and trekking on dirt tracks, sadly a sore ankle has put me out of action for some time. I  dont write much about trekking because i have seen innumerable pristine spots being destroyed by irresponsible picnic makers and their trail of broken beer bottles and packets of gutka and potato chips and callous business owning locals alike…

I also write about politics and economics, because they interest me.

    Hi,

    Hi ,

    We came across your blog http://techntrek.wordpress.com and appreciate the work you have been doing for online users and the Indian web community on the whole. We are pleased with the passion and interest you exhibit in your regular posts and know that blogs have immense control in today’s world.

    Your blog has caught our eye and we want to give you an opportunity to be part of something memorable and exciting. As India has ushered itself into the Digital Age with great enthusiasm and resources, DTH services have brought in a new wave of high-quality television viewing into everyone’s homes.

    Have you wondered what goes into the making of an HD signal that you receive at your set-top box at home?? This technological marvel cannot be expressed in words and has to be experienced first-hand. After all, seeing is believing! We are organizing a special visit for bloggers to one of the UPLINK CENTRES of Reliance BIG TV; at Koparkhairane, Navi Mumbai! This is the epicenter of the action; that happens when a signal is broadcast from a Television channel and sent out to the entire world.

    This opportunity is truly a one-of-a-kind and only for a select few! Do let us know if you are interested.

    Waiting for your mail!

    Thanks,
    Sudhindra Rao
