So tweet the Earth
'ek chidiya, anek chidiyaN; dana chugne baith gayee thi .....' The song conjures up childhood imagery, memories of an entire generation that was still lucky to learn the lessons of life from Mother Nature. For all others who couldn't strike a chord yet, 'ek chidiya, anek chidiyaN' translates to 'a lovely bird and many such lovely birds....'. Those are the opening lines of a beautifully animated song that encouraged harmony and unity in diversity, the mottos that best describe India, through a delightful cameo from Nature.
Most of us used to take delight in watching birds paying us a visit in our very own habitats during our childhood, when todays cities were still attractive enough for nature to cast its beautiful spell with changing seasons, colors, flowers and more. However, all such pleasures of nature are strangers to our cities now. Its something that we have done ourselves, still doing, depriving our younger generations of all such pleasure.
The greater irony is, we seek solace in the virtual worlds. Our bird song comes from MP3s, our greenery in screensavers. And tweet on the web mimicking nature. As we use these products, as we live a synthetic life, we need to think, rethink how our life is affecting our world, our Nature. As creative people, its time we thought about how our creations, the products and services we create and we use impact our world.

The Front loading Washing Machines may have greatest advantage, may well be it’s energy efficiency, but it also suffers from many cons & disadvantages:
1. Bending so far over to add & remove laundry can be an issue for many.
2. Adding to a laundry load is not as simple with a front loader washer. In order to add forgotten laundry, the machine must first be stopped. If the tub has already started to fill, it will have to drain before the front loading door will be open.
3. Parents who have small children need to be on a high alert, because kids love to find small places to hide & the front load design of these tubs seem like the perfect Club house for them.

First of all this a very poor quality product which leads to hazards like electric shocks and short circuits. Even if the quality part is put aside this is not a very good design of an electric socket because it does not support all kinds of plugs (European and the American).

It’s not a big problem for those who are at home but for those who work or who travel a lot it becomes a big mess to carry and occasionally unfold the whole newspaper in the public and start reading it.

A bus similar to the one that is shown is not a good means of transport on narrow streets. Due to their wide floor area they occupy most of the space on the streets and leave barely any room for other cars to pass. This causes traffic jam, slow traffic speed and total commotion.
