After the normal morning routine I headed into work and talked with Ravindra. Surprise! My first presentation would be Monday afternoon and not Tuesday, a demo of the product. After a busy morning of knowledge transfer with Anshul I ate lunch with him and several of his co-workers — Amanpreet, Shahnaz, and Aashlesha. After lunch Anshul had a cricket meeting to attend so the remaining for of us took a very nice stroll around Aditi Garden.

The afternoon saw continued knowledge transfer and my demo. I felt like it could have gone more smoothly but it sounds like those in attendance got value out of it. My demos, while not as polished and customer-focused as Amy’s, tend to be a bit more driven by quirky bits and pointing out things for testers to try out and the like. Afterwards did yet more work with Anshul.

Headed back to the hotel at 6p and worked on my presentation on performance techniques used in the product to be delivered tomorrow. Afterwards headed down to the buffet at Seasonal Tastes (yeah, I’m boring).
