With almost every idea on the internet taken, it’s no surprise that something on the lines of what I’ve been working on for Wishlift is now out there - as Standard Chartered’s ‘Breeze Banking Wishlist’.

Honestly the campaign and it’s execution are both really well done, and i’m very curious to apply for a StanChart account with all the interesting features it has.

Here’s a look at the Wishlift mockup, by the way…

…and kudos to the brand managers + agency of the Breeze Banking campaign!

Last week I had my 1st co-working experience at The Bombay Hub.

They were hosting the Mumbai chapter of International Jelly Week.

Co-working spaces are not a new concept in Europe and the US.

In fact, last year my friend JP Chaclan from Guatemala was researching about bringing the concept to India.

For a city like Mumbai that’s deprived of space and startups and entrepreneurs mushrooming like jobs were so 20th Century, I think co-working is going to be the rule soon.

Currently you’d see this happening across cafes (Coffee Bean, Bandra being the best example), but reliable and scalable infrastructure is something only a designated co-working space can provide.

Consider the advantages of a co-working space as opposed to renting your own space as a freelancer / startup:

Shared costs and resources, resulting in optimum allocation, minimal wastage
Domain expertise / knowledge sharing among peers
Strong support system, especially for small businesses
Opportunities and possibilities from networking
Discovery and constant learning

Four A.M.
We ran a miracle mile
We’re flat broke
But hey we do it in style
The bad rich
God’s flying in for your trial

But when the night is falling
And you cant find a friend (friend)
feel you tree is breaking
Just bend
You’ve got the music in you
Don’t let go
You’ve got the music in you…
