@aroradush @souvikdg Buffet Delhi?
@xAbhishek @rasagy Thanks!
@keeperofthekeys @lokallobaat iPhone + Instagram. Another win for “the best camera is the one that’s with you.” :)
@rashmiswamy Yup. Only downside was that I didn’t have anything higher than the 600x600 resolution on Flickr.
@rakeshrach Thanks! Wish those quotes were hanging and the drop shadow was missing. :)

@bethlovesbolly But to really get a grasp of Delhi and everything it has to offer today, there’s none better than thedelhiwalla.com/[+]
@bethlovesbolly Look no further than eatanddust.com/[+] (and at times, our own bellycentric.in/[+] :) as far as Delhi food is concerned.
@niyambhushan The internet thanks you. :)

@nitinmgarg Hey Nitin. Back in Delhi?
@kingSidharth Sure. Add me.
@kingSidharth I meant that as long as you’re working, the format (studio/freelancing/employed) is of little difference.
@pricelessjunk Works. And I’ve got some feedback on your magazine designs that I somehow always forget to send.
@pricelessjunk Oh yes, wait for some clear time. And good luck! Hope things are stable now at PESIT.
@pricelessjunk It could be like a blog behind the scenes, but it can be so much more for the readers.
@pricelessjunk For real? Need help?
@pricelessjunk You’re welcome. Would so love to read @start_mag as regular old webpages. :)
@kingSidharth @AdityaNayak As long as you’re practising what you preach…
@kingSidharth @AdityaNayak As in your own studio.
@kingSidharth @AdityaNayak When does Sidharth’s Kingdom open shop?
@GnrlMxms Even better, though not entirely surprising!
Would you look at those job perks! “Snow capped mountains, treks, weekend camping, sports activities etc.” jobs.hasgeek…m/view/6zu33[+]
@mightyboosher Next week at the bands festival hopefully?
@mightyboosher Ah yes, I’d forgotten how much you loved that man.
@mightyboosher Steve Jobs is social media now?

Just saying.

@rungtaakki Yeah I’d seen that one. They probably haven’t finalised (and thus not released) the complete line up yet.
Delhi: @zebandhaniya at Purana Qila on 2nd December, as part of the free SAARC bands festival (6-10pm). Full lineup link anyone? #openvite
@Sidharth_Raja Thanks Sid! /cc @rasagy @souvikdg
Spotted: “one berth.” instagr.am/p/VJeRO/[+]
@rasagy @souvikdg Although I’m curious to know what the participants thought of the event. /cc @Sidharth_Raja
@rasagy @souvikdg I’m happy with the result. Lots of people were introduced to CSS. The winning designers were in 8th & 9th!
@rakeshrach Ruhaniyat (courtesy @lokallobaat) ruhaniyat.com/[+] was excellent, & Purana Qila is just the perfect setting for such music.
Pacman for gaming finals at Exun!
Exun after 6 years, Kabirbani, Baul geet & Qawwalis at Purana Qila, paranthe under the Moolchand flyover and another 7am start tomorrow.
@DilliBelle Fix the latter part.
@ConfuseusSay Rockstar was not at all subtle.
@lokallobaat @keeperofthekeys Well, not exactly the same. The lighting was less elaborate today than on instagr.am/p/SdGQl/[+]
@lokallobaat Right!? And that in a movie with Chitrangada Singh. We need to see more of Aditi Rao Hydari.

@Naina @lokallobaat Thankfully the Chole Bhature from Chacha Di Hatti were totally worth it. Hope your meeting was too!
@Naina That sounds horribly similar to the Google Maps led fiasco me and @lokallobaat had couple days ago. Wouldn’t wish it on my enemies.

@xAbhishek Difficult, strenuous, tiring, fun. Me and @lokallobaat are planning on making this a regular exercise.
@_karan Yup. Have you done much climbing yourself?
I know it’s partly down to wrong technique, but rock climbing is certainly the best arms workout. Thank god I don’t have to hold a pen now.

@ap00rv Haha. Now let’s pester @lokallobaat for the link on zorbing at Purana Qila.
@souvikdg Ah yes, tech events. Bangalore probably pwns Delhi on that front, but hey complainingissilly.com/[+] right? :) @ap00rv
@ap00rv Comedy gigs, zorbing, cycle tours, food, festivals, monuments, meets, workshops, dances, plays… what’re you looking for? @souvikdg
@aroradush Apparently this time they’ve gone with “official remake”. Says so in that linked article.

@nitinmgarg Key word there—sometimes. Vertical screen space is precious so there must be really good reasons. Trends sadly transcend reason.
