Sad Day in the history of Myspace

Wow. I am back on my blog after a year..

Today we lost 500 of our colleagues to a mass layoffs. Its a sab thing as it disrupts lives, its sad to see colleagues you have worked with let go, its sad to realize you wont sit with them in cafe anymore. However its a hard reality that eventually comes around once in a while.

I have seen many restructings at Myspace now but this one was big. But there is one thing which probably no one wrote or talked about. Hope.

People who remain have hope at least in an uncertain, nervous way. People who left had sad eyes but I there was a hint of something bigger and better out there.

Hope is a big word. Out of 20000 articles written about Myspace layoffs seems everyone is hoping this site dies ..Hope...

Every person in this company hopes to turn the ship ...gradually, slowly, small but certain steps..Hope...

At least one thing is certain with continous effort, hard work, consistent improvement and contious focus of making a product better things will look good.
