Paul Rand Tribute

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

Got this link off the internets - where his most insightful sound bites are compiled, including his prominent work. This is a must watch, not just for his talk on design, but great art in general - “without the easthetic means that it’s not done with love, but for some other reason, because it pays well, it’s popular, it’s crazy, whatever”. Do watch it.

A New Beginning

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

Hi folks, I know I haven’t updated this blog in for quite some weeks, and I apologize. Things have been really hectic, with a lot of behind-the-scenes meetings, interviews, and client work.

First of all, I have an announcement to make: I have a new colleague. I have hired employee #2 for Viamentis (me being the first :D) - ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Divya, who will be working with me to take up my considerable amount of work load.

She is a fresh engineering grad, who is interested in Ruby, Rails and Lisp (now you know why I hired her ;). You will become familiar her anyways here, as she will be blogging about stuff that catches her interest and might have some smaller announcements to make herself.

Second, we have some new office space - I am sharing office with another cool startup, BloggingSaurus. Currently I and Divya are working out of this office, but we are hoping to get some more people soon. That means, you will see lots more activity on the blog and the main site. Stay tuned!
