Scribez

A while ago there came Scrybe (which let me remind you has got nothing to do with us) and it ‘wow’ed me and some of the many others that I knew. But something happened after that event. Nothing much captured my attention since then and I ‘backslid’ from the blogosphere and all that it had to offer me. Now once again I’m drawn back to the magic that once so captivated my attention. So with an apology for not writing about anything for the past couple of months and thereby keeping you in the dark here I venture back.

Now, let me get this straight. It appears to me that the past couple of months have been ‘dry’ - technologically speaking that is. What I mean to say is when I look at my RSS feed list in Google Reader(which has something like 500 un-read items in it) I still see the same news I saw about 3 months back when I decided to take a sabbatical.

• Google Spreadsheet has officially become one of the most sought after ‘free’ alternatives to MS Office.
• Office 2007 blows minds away but no one able to justify the need to spend close to half a grand to purchase the application.
• iPhone’s (oops IPhone) unveiling manages to make the world hold its breath for a second. Cisco seizes opportunity to steal a little thunder from Apple.
• Vista gets launched amongst varied levels of fanfare – Apart from all the hype about it being the next big thing no one can tell exactly WHY it is indeed the next big thing.
• Wikipedia and its search engine Wikiasari (or whatever name it decides to take up) is sure making some noise but it is yet to be seen if it’ll pose any threat to Google.
• Web 3.0 fascinates almost all of the internet community but no one seems to be able to explain the concept in English.

Although the same stories seem to circulate around the ‘webosphere’, we at Scribez have decided its time to get of our lazy behinds and get back in the game of quality blogging.However just to bring some variety this year I, for one, will be focusing more on developments in Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 along with areas like Business Intelligence and some others too.

Next week we’ll be focusing on the evolution of the web in itself! Till then ciao.
