Hello Friends,

Welcome to this edition of Wavelength.

This month, I’ve nothing good to say about weather. About three weeks ago, the same weather duped me into believing that I needed a new Jaipuri Quilt, and I bought one; only to realize that I couldn’t use it yet. This treacherous weather spent the last two weeks forcing me to wonder whether we were moving towards summer instead of moving away from it. Now, in the last two days, Delhi has enjoyed a sprinkling from the heavens and the temperature has fallen. Today…well, I am not sure! The way the weather has been acting, I hardly feel that I know it. I guess it is a stranger to me.

This brings me to another stranger that many of us work for…the Online Stranger! Please don’t read more meaning into the phrase than there is – (or am I the one doing the reading :) ) The Perfect Online Stranger! Ever heard of this stranger? No? Well, then this month’s Mystery of the Month article should be of interest to you. This stranger is quite like the weather – when we think we know all about this online stranger, is when we realize that we know nothing!

If you are feeling a bit flummoxed, please don’t blame me…it’s the weather. Ahem!

Now coming back to Wavelength…we are organizing a 5-Day workshop on Instructional Design & Content Writing.(5 days - Monday to Friday, January 14 - January 18, 2008)
