Saurabh Garg on The New New Thing

If this is your first visit here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. I talk about India, Entrepreneurship, Marketing and the New New Thing. Thanks.

Have renamed the blog as The New New Thing.

Why?
1. “Saurabh Garg talks” was really an inappropriate title. I am trying to collect interesting things here and “talks” is a boring, overused and abused word. Had to move away from it.

2. Although I never cared for what people make of this blog, I have realized I should. This marks a fundamental shift in the way I perceive my blog. Earlier I was writing because I needed an avenue to let out my thoughts. I have seen that blogging is an awesome way to meet new people and get more ideas. More and more people around the world are looking at blogs to express their thoughts and share what they know. Everyone has a publishing power that they did not have. Everyone has the tools to be able to gather audience. Everyone can now make fans. Time is appropriate to start using blog for professional reasons. And hence the change.

3. Why “New New Thing” and not anything else? Since I am always in pursuit of interestingness and that new thing, I thought this would be an apt title for the time being. Until I find the newer, better and more interesting name. Everything is in a constant state of flux. Things might change rapidly, slowly, in small steps but the they do change gradually. What is interesting today might now be interesting tomorrow. In all probability it will not be. No one can predict what would be hot. And hence the name The New New Thing. And as I have said earlier, I might change it again. (Advisory: Name copied from the book The New New Thing by Michael Lewis. Brilliant book. Must Read. My review is here).
