There’s a blogosphere meme going around where bloggers are tagged by other bloggers. When that happens, the tagged blogger has to post about 5 interesting thing about himself. After that, he tags 5 other bloggers. Greg Narain of SocialTwister, SocialRoots and Blue Whale Labs has tagged Rrove. So without further adieu, here are 5 things about Atomu and David. 

5 Things About Atomu 

  1. Tetsuwan Atomu (Astro Boy) was my hero in my early school years. It inspired my interest in science. Now you know where my name is from. He has many names: Mighty Atom, Iron-arm Atom, etc. For me, he is “Atomu”. 
  2. If I were given a chance to have dinner with a historical figure, I would choose Albert Einstein. 
  3. I have won several championships in table tennis. In all those tournaments, my skill level was not even close to those best players. Yet, I somehow managed to win. 
  4. My lifetime mission is to help fight illiteracy in all parts of the world. 
  5. I am scared by tall people. 

5 Things About David   

  1. I play underwater hockey. For real. 
  2. I used to sell ice cream (back when I was a brand manager for Nestle). 
  3. My current passion is a) building shiny Internet things and b) search engine marketing (I think its cool to automate a steady stream of web traffic to a site). 
  4. My favorite sites (aside from Rrove): Digg, Pandora, Meebo and Bloglines 
  5. I recommend these blogs: Techcrunch, SEOmoz, and StartUp Review
