Happy Twenty Eleven!

The month of turquoise begins!

According to Tiffany & Co.'s pamphlet:

If cold December gave you birth
The month of snow and ice and mirth
Place on your hand a turquoise blue;
Success will bless whate'er you do.

Ever wondering what this turquoise is all about? Well... Turquoise is rare and valuable in finer grades and has been prized as a gem and ornamental stone for thousands of years owing to its unique hue. In recent times turquoise, like most other opaque gems, has been devalued by the introduction of treatments, imitations, and synthetics onto the market.

Since today is the very first day of the month of turquoise, may the success with you!

Should 'thoughts' be 'just thoughts' anymore?

Absolutely not!

Before the monsoon !

Really a colorful masterpiece... fifteenthone just wanted to share!

Take a look at the mobile web !

" Mobile devices are growing at an astronomical pace. Statistics today show that there are about 7 billion people in the world today. Roughly 1.6 billion people are connected to the Internet via a computer (World Internet Statistics, 2009). But about 4.3 billion people have mobile phones. More than two-times the population has a mobile phone over a computer connected to the Internet (Murph, 2009). "

Interesting...isn't it? Think it's the time to have a look at the mobile web... Came across some good stuff by Cameronmoll... This might be a good start!

Half a year has gone by !

Fooh! …after six months of silence, fifteenthone is back to the web!!!
Dark and gloomy evening here at Colombo…!

Alfredo: Living here day by day, you think it's the center of the world. You believe nothing will ever change. Then you leave: a year, two years. When you come back, everything's changed. The thread's broken. What you came to find isn't there. What was yours is gone. You have to go away for a long time... many years... before you can come back and find your people. The land where you were born. But now, no. It's not possible. Right now you're blinder than I am.

Salvatore: Who said that? Gary Cooper? James Stewart? Henry Fonda? Eh?

Alfredo: No, Toto. Nobody said it. This time it's all me. Life isn't like in the movies. Life... is much harder.

365 days of hope, peace, joy and love !
