About Ravi Udeshi

Hi there!

My name is Ravi Udeshi and I’m a 20-something undergraduate student at George Mason University studying Government and International Politics (yay, bureaucracy!). I’m also a minimalist-in-training, declutterer, amateur photographer, and passionate digital media advocate.

I write about the future of media and technology, how to be more efficient, and simple ways to enjoy life. I started blogging in 2005 as a way to share small thoughts with friends and my love for media and technology has just grown from there!

To contact me, please visit the contact page. And in the immortal words of Apu Nahasapeemapetilon….”Thank you, please come again!”

Geeky Bits

I read Techmeme multiple times daily and can’t wait for the death of physical media. I’m increasingly wary of big corporations having so much of our data, but (for now) I still trust the Big Goog with my email, calendar, and RSS subscriptions, among lots of other things. I’m multilingual with operating systems (Mac OS X laptop, Windows Home Server, dabble in Ubuntu Linux) and love trying new digital products. I’m a Craigslist poweruser ($10k bought and sold over 3 years!), mostly because I sell old electronics to fund my new electronics habit.
