Whats in it? Movie and PLay ticket booking online...

I was waiting for such a site to come up. If you can have a yatra.com for booking flights on a single platform, why not a single platform for booking Movie tickets throughout India? And viola, I present to you http://www.bookmyshow.com/ . Its a complete site. It has associations with all the major Multiplexes. I think only Fame is missing out at this point, but I am sure it will join in. It has its own picks of the week and the top ten movie suggestions. I think its a great site, a single point to see the lowest rates for movies in theaters you can go to. this was a gap which was waiting to be filled and I am happy it has been filled. Also, it gives much needed platform to PLAYS. as tickets for plays will also be available here soon. So I give them 2 thumbs up!

My dissapointment - a rather big one, is that the site has only signed up with Multiplexes who anyways have e-ticketing facility on their own sites. It would be much better if this site cud have Single theaters as their partners and sell their tickets online. I think the single theater owners are suffering enough and if they are given this platform , it would boost their sales. I belive the theater owners are also at fault, if they dont approach this site. As we know they dont have the capital to come up with their own site. Nor does the volume of sales warranty a site, but if this site is used, the cost would be shared between many single theater owners. I think BookMyShow can give this platform to small theaters at cheap rates.

About this site - Its started by Bigtree Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. which was founded in 1999and is India's premiere comprehensive ticketing, information and analysis solutions provider.

sharing IT knowledge

having joined my post graduate studies in operations, i had been in the look out of a portal which could not only provide me with a platform to understand the new IT domains emerging in the field of supply chain management but also a place which could help me to prepare myself to be competitive in these fields.
www.ittoolbox.com is a kind of a portal which only gives you a proper guidance for all these activities but also helps you a lot in knowing the upcoming trends in the field of SCM.
this portal has also been instrumental in peers sharing their IT knowledge in various domains through a combination of blogs, cyclopedia's, networking platforms and diverse knowledge bases.
this portal can also be of great help to get in touch with your peers in similar fields by simply registering on the site and meeting them online.
all in all, a portal which is worth mentioning to all the people who would like to be abreast with all the happenings in the field of IT, and wanting to share their IT knowledge with many more people who are in the need of the same.

World of Free Codes

I was just looking for the HTML code to create pop-ups, at that time I came across this portal. I just startled as I saw this portal. This portal contains lots of programming codes and in different programming languages and on the top of this these all codes are free of cost.

The best part about this portal is providing different kind of IT projects and example. These people also take care of the order of language application; here you will find all the codes in chronological sequence. Believe me, being a computer engineer I believe this is the best way to learn coding and learning different languages.

There is one section wherein you can put your queries and get them solved, a kind of forum.
Free tutorials section for different coding language is one more colored feather in this portal cap. In coding part people also put the logic that they have used to develop the code, this gives overall idea about the implementation part of the coding theories.

All guys who are interested in IT coding part can make the best use of this portal and you can also apply for different IT companies through this portal.

Final Destination of FMCG Marketing Guys

Hello friends

I recently came across this website http://fmcgmarketers.com/ It seems to be focussed on Marketing Guys operating in FMCG sector. The design of site is traditional, but the content is modern. The architecture of the site focuses on all the critical and vital elements of the field of art. It talks about Jobs, Contests, and platform for amateurs. According to me the best feature is amateurs. For experts net is flooded with sites, but there are actually very few platforms where amateurs can work their hands on.

But, the content of the sites focuses on India. So, I think the site is focused on Indian Scenario. But, at the same time it carries links to Harvard & Mckinsey News. So, I think the initial guys are from India and trying to rope in global personalities.

I will recommend this site to all the MBA Grads of Marketing in India and also to Indian FMCG Marketing professionals.

And I will suggest to the team of the site that kindly involve more people from different regions of the world, to give better content to the target audience.

And nice work, and keep updating for Marketers benefits.

Management is all about War

hello friends
I m sharing with you one of my favorites portal http://www.sonshi.com/ The site is based on methodologies of war. These methodologies are primarily based on the master work of Sun Tzu's 'The Art of War'.

The Art of War was created by Sun Tzu around 3000 years back in China. Till date many have tried to understand it literally, but can't endorse that actually anybody does or not. Today this philosophy of The Art Of War is being followed not only by military but by Managment also. Because, according to The Art of War- The art is not an art if its approach can't be applied to any other art.

About the site

The site carries full text versions of The Art of War and alike books. Then there is very good and lively discussion forum. Also there is temple, where one can get daily guidance about the application of The Art Of War in the present life.

I find this site one of the most enlightening one from the managment learning point of view. I hope you guys will find it interesting and enlightening too. If you tried the site after reading this brief and liked it then do comment on this post
