Cricket: India vs Australia live 2nd Final 2008 online at Brisbane - Commonwealth Bank Series


Critics call him "match looser" & Indian captain makes a post match comment that he is a "records man". In spite of all these the little man shouldered the 1st finals win responsibility when Indian top order is at its worse form. For Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar, this is a mission nicely accomplished in his 20 long year cricket career.

Cricket: Watching online 1st Final India vs Australia at Sydney Commonwealth Bank Series

India is better team than Sri Lanka in this series but not when compared with Australia. India just won one game against Australia in CB series i.e. 4th Match at Melbourne played on Feb 10, 2008 by 5 wickets. This makes Australia the defacto favorites in the 1st final game that will be played on March 2' 2008 at Sydney.

Business: Book Review : Myths of innovation

This book opens with a chapter that talks about - *"Is it really that Newton found 'laws of gravity' when he saw apple falling to the ground"* - Author gives explanation of why this is a myth that sold very well for ages.

In the book ‘the myths of innovation’, Scott Berkun debunks common myths about innovation. These myths are mostly human short cuts or quick fixes our minds take to help to transmit (promote) the information to other people. Innovation is not something that can be processed and manufactured and I felt Berkun did a great job in describing these realities in the book.
