We’ve been on hiatus here at NED Nama for a bit. It had to do with our Editor having some catching up to do, and some organizational work to be done.
The good news, as you will see in the immediate future includes:
- NED Alumni Association of Silicon Valley (NEDians SV) is being formalized as an organization.
- NED Alumni Association of Southern California (NEDAASC) is coming to fruition, too.
- Two academic competitions are being held at NED (TechElite08 and SPEC2008), and which we’re hoping to get regular updates on.
- … more and regular information that you, our readers will send in…right?

It is time to get back to work on the NED Nama.
First of all, apologies for disappearing on the community for a while. I had had a family emergency and then got backlogged with various things, including the recent events in Pakistan.
The purpose of this blog was always long term, and not just for the convention. We do plan to keep going. There are events NEDians are part of–and events in the lives of NEDians; a pending “answer” to a riddle we’d posted here; updates on NEDian organizations around the world; NEDians expressing opinions–even an NEDian security consultant who’s views and assessements can now be heard on Pakistani television–via YouTube. And I have been working to expand the team and see if we can recruit an editor. I think I am almost there…
So, let’s get down to business.

I have managed to sort through the first morning session photos (out of 654 photos that I took) and have put together a small slide show.
The photos in this slide show include:
- Keynote speech: Return to Glory
- Panel 1: From NED to NASDAQ
- Panel 2: NED History and Heritage (updated!)
- Panel 3: Beyond Engineering (updated!)
- Evening program: Awards, keynote speech (updated!)
Update: If you can’t see the embedded slide show above, click here (fixed)

One tradition of the blogosphere is a blogroll, a list of blogs that the owners/editors/writers of a blog read, like, etc. You can now see in the righthand column of this site lists of links. So far, we have a list of blogs by NEDians; a list of blogs that NEDians contribute to and/or edit; a list of sarkari sites related to NED, engineering etc.; a list of neem-sarkari sites for alumni, and so on; …
Please contribute entries, suggestions, ideas, etc. for this. You can leave a comment on this post or send me email.
Secondly, we need people to send in material, items, entries, articles, pictures, links, and so on. If you want to contribute more often, please register with the site and send me a request to set you up as a contributor, so you can post material directly.
And most urgently, with the convention fast approaching, if you’re going to be there and can blog from the convention, please do drop a line, so we can set you up to keep NEDians who can’t make it, and everyone else up-to-the-minute during the convention.

I must say that I am delighted to see this blog, after such a long wait, where all NEDians can share their thoughts. This is an attempt to provide another place for discussion, where NEDians can discuss their thoughts and ideas, not only with fellow NEDians but also with the rest of the world.
This blog is an attempt to bring together the voice of NEDians, talking about things they would normally, at NED, enjoy discussing over a cup of tea or a Kabab Roll at Mech Corner, Civil Lawn or at some teacher’s room.
Having said that, here is my first Blog: “Boojho Tau Janain” .
Maumaa yeh hai ………………..
He is a prominent personality who is no longer associated with NED but most NEDians would remember him for his services. WAIT! There is more to read… read on »
