Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Road Map

Of course, the overriding priority tomorrow will be to resolve the non-working of My Jobs, in cooperation with Revathi.

At the same time, I felt it would help to draw up a tentative “Road Map” of various things that need to be taken up over the next few months.

Such a list would help us estimate the man-hours required to tackle each task and enable us to fix some approximate “Completion Target Dates” for each task.

Following are my suggestions:

High Priority Items

  • Submit Resume – Fresh Graduates
    Target: 30th May
  • Job Search
    Target: 10th June
  • Resume Blaster Widget – Industry wise
    Target: 20th June
  • Resume Blaster Widget – City wise
  • RSS feed from MonsterIndia

Medium Priority Items

  • Installing AdSense on site
    Target: 30th June
  • Candidate-wise “History of Jobs Applied”
  • Uploading 8 lakh Company Database (purchased) on Resume Blast
  • Upload “My Jobs Opinion Poll” page
    (Hardik has completed)
  • Develop feature: “Job Search – City wise”
    (as per my note dated 06 Feb), instead of “Jobs in my Street?”
  • Develop feature: “Resume Search – City wise” online
    (as per my note dated 06 Feb)
  • Head Hunter Widget

Additional Features

  • Resume Holder Widget
  • Resume Alert Widget
  • “AdSharp” feature online

Low Priority Items

  • Admin Tool for “Site Statistics Counters Changes/Increases”
    (as per format provided by Kailas)
  • Develop dynamic graph for:
    “%age of Jobseekers vs No. of Job Alerts”
  • Upload widgets on GetJar / AndroidZoom etc.
  • Raise job alert cut-off from 50 to 100
  • Remove contradictory instructions while applying for jobs
  • Activating streamer (Who is using Widget?) – ready
  • Offline revival of earlier de-hosted web sites

✍️ Handwritten Notes Observed

  • “Discussed with Shuklendu / Nitin on 10th May & finalized these dates. Confirmed by email on 11th.”
  • Several items are circled / ticked as priority confirmations


What I can do for you next (pick what you want)

I’ll keep this crisp and useful—no busywork.

Option A — Full OCR → Clean Text (Default)

  • Convert all uploaded pages into accurate, readable text
  • Preserve:
    • Headings
    • Bullet points
    • Tables
    • Dates, names, email IDs
  • Separate into logical documents:
    • Job Alert Channel proposals
    • RecruitGuru / CustomizeResume letters
    • BigTV / Reliance / DTH correspondence
    • UI/UX wireframes (described in text)
    • Roadmaps & pending-work lists

👉 Output: One consolidated, well-structured text document

Option B — OCR + Structured Rewriting

Everything in Option A plus:

  • Rewrite into modern, clean, professional language
  • Remove repetition
  • Standardize terminology (Job Alert, Resume Blast, JAM, etc.)
  • Convert handwritten UI sketches into clear functional specs

👉 Output: Policy / Product / Platform-ready documentation

Option C — Chronological “Innovation Timeline”

  • OCR + organize by year
  • Show how your ideas evolved:
    • Job Alerts → JAM → Resume Blast → Widgets → Opinion Polls → Multi-device delivery
  • Ideal for:
    • Blog
    • White paper
    • “I was early” proof for IndiaAGI / OnlineJobsFair narratives

👉 Output: Timeline + narrative

Option D — Selective Conversion

If you want control, tell me:

  • “Convert only handwritten UI sketches”
  • “Convert only Reliance / BigTV letters”
  • “Convert only Roadmap & Pending Work sheets”

My recommendation (knowing your history)

👉 Option B, then later we can derive:

  • A blog series
  • A policy note
  • A “pre-AI jobtech” retrospective
  • Inputs for IndiaAGI / OnlineJobsFair revival

Just reply with one line:

  • “Proceed with Option A”
  • “Proceed with Option B”
  • “Proceed with Option C”
  • or “Convert only pages X–Y”

Once you confirm, I’ll start converting immediately—clean, accurate, and future-ready 🚀
