World Telecom Day - 17 May

Its a great feeling when one's birthday arrives. Added to that if some other important day also falls on your birthday its absolutely icing on the cake. I was just looking forward to this day. Today is my birthday for the people who do not know and its also the World Telecom Day. This information I could get only when I received a SMS from CellOne service.

Today is the 140th anniversary of International Telecommunication Union [ITU] and also has special importance for India as the country is commemorating 150 Years of Telecom Services. The nation has crossed magic figure of 100 Million Telecom Users.

Today we are celebrating 37th World Telecom Day. The theme for this year is "Creating Equitable Information Society". Hopefully with years to come our country will scale greater heights in the area of telecommunications.
