The commencement ceremony was the usual. Javed Karim's talk was fascinating - imagine graduating in 2004 and being a founding member of YouTube by 2005. Nothing makes a success story like the right brains in the right place at the right time! Two years earlier, it may well have bombed, now it is just too late. Innovation follows it's own time, slave to none - if it was to be, it was the right time for it to be.
Congratulations to Nagraj. This visit also motivated us to get closer to our own commencements faster! Will 2007 be the year? Will innovation come take Adi and me by the arm? Unlikely. More likely we will need to drag the damn bugger off his pedestal and beg him to take a trip with us.
