Mamli, Padmaja & Gautam, Nov 2003

I bought a Canon PowerShot A80, my first digital camera, during a business trip to the US in Nov 2003. These are the first photos I took when I returned home to Hyderabad. Mamli was almost 4 years old & Padmaja was pregnant with Bablu.

Mamli & Moloo

Dec 2003. Padmaja was pregnant with Bablu. Mamli was really into a big sister thing. She had this stuffed monkey that she played brother-sister with. Poor Moloo (the monkey) got all her attention till the day Bablu was born (March 21, 2004). The poor chap was discarded the day Mamli's little bro came home :-)

The Four Year Old Mamli

These photos were taken in late 2003, when Mamli was a little less than 4 years old.

QAI International Software Testing Conference 2004, Pune

I presented a paper on Performance Testing of web applications in the 2004 QAI International Software Testing Conference held in Pune, India. I was working for Applabs Technologies at the time. Applabs offers software testing services and the CEO Sashi Reddy (my boss) wanted to break into the performance testing services market. He put me in charge of this effort and I put together a team, a process, and the tooling. The QAI presentation was based on my experience with this.

I found these pictures last weekend while going through my photo archives.


That's me! You can barely make me out in the dark. I am standing behind the podium in the white T-Shirt.
