Tech Mission London according to Telegraph
This article was written in response to the story appeared on Telegraph FACTS: 1. I organised an event titled "Tech Mission London 09" on 8th June 2009 hosted by Stewart Townsend of Sun Microsystems in London.

Fierce On Going Battle in Sri Lanka against LTTE – The real battle begins once Prabhakaran is defeated
I have been glued to internet media channels and Twitter since yesterday morning to hear the end of LTTE and Prabhakaran. As the media was regugitating the same story over and over combining it with propaganda from pro-LTTE websites and old information from the UN and others, my frustration continued to grow. I came to […]

Rationale for TwiCRM

Twitter Apps #1 – TweetStats
Twitter is everywhere these days and I must admit, it is my favourite tool next to e-mail and of course edocr. It is truly a remarkable marketing tool that I use everyday for both edocr and Northern StartUp 2.0. I also use twitter for user/customer engagement, news and collaboration. What is also amazing is the […]
