We launched ApartmentADDA on Nov 12th, 2008 and today this site turns 3 ! I think it is apt to look at the analytics like how we would look at a kid - how tall he or she has grown! The above snapshot is from Google Analytics of Visitors from the beginning of time till today. The mini spike after Nov 2008 was on January 2009 - when I informed about this venture in my batch's email list. Facebook had not taken off then yet. The next big spike after Nov 2009 was on January 2010 - when Bangalore Mirror put us on Front page! Today we get more than 3 times that much traffic in a day. Google Analytics now gives realtime reporting - it is surreal to watch the clicks and the dots show up on the world's map. So what is next for this kid? "Changing Orbits" of course - quoting our good friend and mentor Mr.Sharad Sharma.

Here is an equation that dawned on me today while running. It is quite simple. a) Speed at which you can run. b) Distance that you can cover. c) Running without any pain or injuries. You can only have two of the above. Obviously c) has to be selected - cannot imagine a life with pain - unless you are Zahir Khan or one of the sissy Indian cricketers who always feign pain in order to skip playing and go act in more Ads. That leaves us to pick either a) or b). So if you have only 30 minutes to run - run as fast as possible for a short distance. If you have lot of time on hand - run as far as possible - but slowly with enough breaks. At times these constraints are a real PITA - but that's life - we should just try to make the most of it.
