Wishlist - Syncing Audio and Ebooks

By -
Its just been a couple of years that I've gotten into audiobooks and Kindle. As someone who listens to audiobooks during commute and reads himself to sleep, I wish there was a feature to sync the progress on audiobooks and Kindle.

Use case -- I read the book on Kindle till page 100 and start my commute for work. I open the app on my phone and the audiobook starts from page101. While returing I complete till page 150 and when I start the book again at home, it starts from page 151.

Not sure if there are any apps that support this interoperability but it sounds like a very useful feature for readers who prefer both reading and listening to books.

On Digital Marketing

Being in digital marketing for the last 10 years, I get a lot of queries from fresh graduates on how to start their career in this domain. This post is for them. This is how I think about digital marketing.  The first step is to understand that digital marketing is not a radically new discipline but an extension of traditional marketing. The goal of marketing is to connect the sellers with the buyers and provide value to the buyer whilst making a profit for the seller.

So, if your Target Audience is digital only then can you expect to reach them via DM. To reach others you will need to use the traditional channels such as radio or TV. Measuring ROI is much sim...

On Thinking Right

  “ Most people would rather die than think and many of them do!” BERTRAND RUSSELL After a long time, I had an amazing discussion with a close friend. It is interesting how the pandemic has shifted our attention from the trivia of on-demand entertainment and moved it to things that matter most. For me, a stimulating conversation matters most. A conversation where both parties present opposing point of views and have the courage, humility, and open-mindedness to change or at least think from others ‘point of view’. I have always believed in the power of Douglas Adams’ most powerful weapon in the Universe – a point of view gun. So many conflicts can be resolved by momentarily giving up our own POV and having a bit of empathy for the other side. A conversation that allows you to learn and grow is always the right kind of conversation. The only thing that is better than this kind of conversation is if it happens without anyone raising their voice. This was not a problem for me as ...
