Your post brought back memories from the School days. Even we had something similar to what you described. And it used to go around in turns, I always used to get so excited when it was my turn the next day.
I would try to make the headline sound as interesting as possible and reduce the number of words spoken to bare min. so that people don't fall asleep. I used to fell like a editor.

heh. i remember the same - my family (grandfather to be precise) was a computer buff - and so i had a completely useless hotmail id. absolutely noone else had one. on that day, though i wouldn't know it for another 6 odd years, i learnt an important lesson about network externalities. :)

Hey, it's good to look back once in a while.

Actually I prefer the old days when the news was not-so-instant. I am sick of these 24x7 news channels.

Shrinidhi, Your post is amazing. It reminds me of how far we have come with computers and internet, and really still how far we have to come as a collective human population. So many people (in America) know about Internet, have used it, but really don't understand the true power or full use of the Internet. It's an amazing tool. If you saw this in 99..you're a visionary!

Hi Nidhi,

Good Nostalgic Article. You were the trendsetter for the 'breaking news' in the morning. Later, people did not try to compile the news items . They took a print out from rediff.com and straightly went to read it in the assembly!
