Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Visit to your New Office


Nitin ,


As suggested by you last evening , I plan to visit your office on Monday ( 10 am ) to take a look at the U / I for ,

>    Blast Message - Corporate / Industry wise
     ( this will require re-naming of current link to , " Blast Message - Corporate / Industry + City wise " )

>   World - Wide - Wall

In both the cases , please ensure that the U / I , are complete with the relevant PAGE WRITE-UPS


It is important to take a look from the view point of a casual visitor and then ask :

>   Does the page write up CLEARLY explain , what a Visitor is supposed to " Select "  ? and in what sequence ?

>  After each selection , a message must flash , telling him to wait for the page to refresh , before making the next selection

(  at present , absence of such a warning , makes me select the next criteria immediately ! I get confused ! )


AND


>  When he selects those " Search Criteria " ( in the prescribed sequence ) , what Results , can he expect to see ?

>  Upon seeing those results , what is he supposed to do ? ( viz : click the BLAST button )


As far as World - Wide - Wall , is concerned , the very first criteria to be selected , will be ,

>   TYPE OF MESSAGE ( from the drop list )


Once this has been selected , many visitors / subscribers would like to see ALL the messages ( of the TYPE selected ) , from ALL the Countries

So , for the next droplist of " COUNTRY ",  if option " ALL " is selected , then obviously , there will  no question / option for selecting any COMPANY NAME

Eg :

  •   Amitabh Kant ( DIPP ) would want to see " Inviting INDIAN COMPANIES for Technical Collaboration / Joint Venture " messages coming in from all the companies from all the countries
    For him , the " TYPE " of message is most important

Similarly , an Indian Exporter , would want to see " We want to buy from India " type of messages from all the companies from all the countries

Only in those cases , where a visitor selects a particular " Country " ( and not ALL ) , would " Company Name " drop list should appear

NEXT :

As soon as any visitor arrives on this page , what will he SEE , even before he selects anything ?

I think , I have earlier suggested showing him ALL the " composed / saved and approved " messages , in reverse chronological order , starting with the latest . Each to stay on the screen , till he clicks the " PREVIOUS " or " NEXT " button
