Bangalored!

January 20, 2005 07:38 AM


Bangalored adj. for a corporation, project, or employment, having been relocated to India; having lost business or employment due to such a relocation.

Hmmm, so Bangalore is on its way into the dictionary after Shanghai. [via as2max]

I enjoyed reading your blog and came to it via http://ganshu.blogspot.com

BTW, you maybe intersted in sharing the news of "The First ever Gujarati blog". I have been blogging in English but for a long time I was keen on doing something for my language and that led me to start this Guajrati blog. Though it is very hard and tough to write. :(

If you have time, do visit and share it with your friends.

Love the comparison drawn between the two words Bangalore and Shanhai... very nice.

So is there a word for projects going to Moscow? I know when my last firm had a Domino to Palm api level application to build we outsourced to a firm located in Russia. Great code but getting the requirements understood was a bit tough.

btw - nice template design.

I second Deepa's comments. The original bloreans have lost their existance.. The cost of living in blore has gone up so much that, the actually blorean is finding it horrible to continue to stay here....

And the new cosmo culture has spoiled the traditional touch that blore had...

As we know pple catch bad things more faster than the good ones...
