What not to blog
Posted by Abhijith as Uncategorized
I had always wanted to write a post about employers looking at their employee’s social lives to find out more about them, but Bhaktha beat me to it by writing a column in The Hindu.
That was a very ‘official’ column; identifying what to blog and what not to is difficult.

Seven Samurai (Shichinin no samurai) (1954)
Posted by Abhijith as Uncategorized
I was surprised to say the least that one of the Nittians reviewed Japanese director Akira Kurosawa without including Seven Samurai. Mark my words, there can be no bigger mistake than this.
