Cinderella's Shoes !!

Technology, Entertainment, Design!!

So TED was here, here in India for three days. TED talks going for three whole days in Mysore. But I could not attend those sessions. Reason: money honey!! It was too costly for me to attend.

Hopefully on the topic related to technology and design.
