GM's DAY IS MADE :)

( This blog was written on 07August 2010 but published today )

G M is Grand Mother for the un-initiated. This is the acronym devised by us . It is not as complicated as some which have been introduced to us by the kids . eg   OMG : Oh My God , BTW : By the Way , LOL : this was introduced today by AJ . Lots Of Laughs !

Any way all that was BTW .

Every technical innovation has always had their flip side as well . Internet has been the greatest so far as the communication revolution is concerned . All the knowledge is now literally at the finger tips of people . All they have to do is "google" it or "bing" it :-) . The flip side being easy access to pornogrophy , milacious mails hacking , on line frauds etc etc .

In our opinion one of the best boon of this revolution is internet based telephone and video calls.With nuclear families being able to talk to children , grand children all the way across the world and if it is a video call to be able to see them at that same time gives so much pleasure to the GPs that one has to feel it , go through the experience to to believe it :-) .

If one has a grand child in Singapore and another in Delhi to be able to talk to them and see them at the same time would have been unthinkable just a few years back !!!

Today being Saturday ANJ in Singapore and and AJT in Delhi were free . So today we talked to K in Singapore and L in Delhi and also saw them simultaneously. K of course just waved and generally smiled but L was really very talkative . She walked the ramp for us in showing us her new frock , put on a tiara and even sang couple of songs for us . I took skype snaps of the occasion . I am putting up couple of them here . A truly wonderful and happy happy experience , and this brings me to the title of this post :
