I got a call from one of my friends
asking me if I had called. Shamelessly I admitted that I had not
called because that was the truth; but the fact was that I had always
wanted to call him but finding a non-busy slot which is an
intersection of not-busy slot of my friend and the not busy-slot of
me was null for a good long time. Nevertheless to say we never called
each other for a long time. Nonetheless we eventually ended up
talking for a quite a few minutes.
I guess this is a very common scenario
and most of us can relate to this in one form or other. We want to
socialize but do not know when or how. When the number of days from
the lasttime we called increases, the resistance to make the connect
increases. So the connect is not made for a long time and sometimes
it is a life time.
Can technology help? Mobile phones are
omni present. They have our contact telephone number and they have a
good memory. Why not mix all this up and enable Smart Missed Call to
Connect two Friends (SMC2F) application?
SMC2F is a program running on your
phone which keeps a watch on the call and the message log of your
phone and is aware of friends in your contact list. Simple analysis
determines which friend in the contact list has not been called for a
while now and the smart applications calls the friends number and
disconnects before the call is picked by the friend and goes back to
sleep. Allowing the two friends to make the voice connect.
Is there such an ap? Go figure out.

Around the corner I have a friend
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well
As in the days when I rang his bell,
And he rang mine.
If, we were younger then,
Now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
"Tomorrow" I say "I will call on Jim"
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him"
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner!--yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir"--"Jim died today".
And that's what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
