Great contest between the number of times @Uber India slashes rates and the number of times @Zomato switches its logo.

So @mgaadi_blr is the second startup (other than @nilenso) that managed to adhere to time at the @construktfest crawls.

The @nilenso folks broke the norms at @construktfest crawls by starting and ending their talk on time.

@zooeymui For that I use youtu.be/WBRXIjCg8CY. Though I admit that the results may not be as awesome as the steam wand.

@zooeymui May I suggest using manual brewing techniques. Not only it doesn’t fail you, but also gives precise control.

Any organisation in Delhi (West?) that helps underprivileged women deal with domestic violence? Or what’s the right place to report cases?

There are very few things in life that I can confidently pin-point as my favourite. Among chocolates, Ferrero Rocher it is.

Been 8 days since @RTRDholavira, and the blister under my foot still looks ugly and hurts. Only 6 days to my next trail run. Need a miracle.

Returning from @RTRDholavira. What an experience! Let me boil it down to one line— The most expensive torture I’ve bought myself.

@rungta Just checked out the map. Don’t think I’ll visit that region. The Rann has very little overlap with Saurashtra, if at all.

@ray1claw That’s the big reason, of course. The not-that-big reason is that I’m participating in @RTRDholavira.

via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to ray1claw from Kirti Nagar, New Delhi

@ray1claw No, I wanted to know which town are you close to? The Rann is pretty big.

I’m on my way to Dholavira, reaching Ahmedabad tom.
