    So without further ado, here it goes…

    Your mantra for life

    Innovate daily, learn constantly, and create purposefully

    A book you are currently reading or plan to read

    Currently, I’m not reading any specific book, but I’m always open to recommendations. What’s your current favorite?

    Your fitness mantra

    Play your favorite sport! Engaging in activities you love not only makes fitness enjoyable but also ensures consistency. For me, it’s cricket; the joy of the game keeps me active.

    Your comfort food

    Khichadi is my ultimate comfort food. Its simplicity and nourishing qualities make it a go-to meal for both comfort and sustenance.

    A quote or philosophy that keeps you going when the chips are down

    “Everything happens for a reason.” This belief is my anchor during challenging moments, reminding me that even setbacks hold valuable lessons and opportunities for growth.

    Your guilty pleasure

    A packet of Parle G gold with a steaming cup of tea is my guiltiest pleasure. The simplicity of this combo is my little escape from the complexities of the day.

    The last time you tried something new

    I recently got a new home theatre system, and it completely blew my mind. The immersive experience has taken my movie and music enjoyment to a whole new level.

    A life lesson you learned the hard way

    One hard-earned life lesson is that you can’t force people or friends to stay in your life. Relationships, like any living entity, evolve. It’s crucial to appreciate the time you have with someone but also to gracefully accept if paths diverge.

    What gets you excited about life

    Money? Haha. What truly excites me about life is the constant pursuit of knowledge, the joy of creating something meaningful, and the prospect of forming genuine connections with people

    What’s on top of your bucket list

    Winning the next cricket tournament in my complex is at the very top of my bucket list, and I’m gearing up to make it happen!

    If you could give one piece of advice to your younger self, what would it be?

    Just do it; you are doing it right.

    One thing you would most like to change about the world

    One change I’d love to see in the world is a shift towards more solar energy. A greener, sustainable future is something we can all work towards, and the power of the sun holds incredible potential for positive change.

    An activity that keeps you motivated and charged during tough times

    Getting through tough times is easier when I tackle challenging tasks head-on. Turning obstacles into achievements keeps me motivated and strengthens my resolve.

    What lifts your spirits when life gets you down

    When life gets me down, nothing lifts my spirits like a fantastic music session with my wife. Great songs have a way of turning the mood around and creating moments of joy.

    Your go-to stress buster

    It might sound cliché, but for me, the ultimate stress buster is tackling and completing pending work. There’s a unique satisfaction in overcoming tasks that instantly alleviates stress and brings a sense of accomplishment.

    Threads available via web: Connect anywhere, anytime!

    Mumbai: Threads is a new social media platform and mobile app from Instagram and its parent company Meta. It’s a microblogging platform, which means you can publish bite-sized posts called “threads” that can feature things like photos, text, or links. The platform also lets you comment on and like others’ threads.

    Threads is now available via the web, enabling users to connect anywhere, anytime. This platform was previously available exclusively through mobile applications, and has taken a significant leap forward by extending its reach to web browsers. This expansion empowers users with the flexibility to access and engage with Threads’ features seamlessly from any internet-enabled device, further enhancing the user experience and breaking barriers related to device compatibility.

    One can access Threads on the web by opening up a web browser on their PC and going to the Threads’ website.

    If one has a Threads account set up already, then all they have to do is log in with the username and password of the Instagram account that is linked to the Threads account. Threads accounts can only be made from an existing Instagram account, hence the need for an IG username and password to log in is a must.

    With Threads now accessible via the web, users no longer face constraints linked to specific operating systems or device types. Whether on a laptop, desktop, or tablet, this web-based version ensures a uniform and feature-rich experience, allowing users to stay connected with their social circles regardless of the device they are using. The shift to a web-based interface also means users can seamlessly transition from mobile to desktop environments without compromising functionality or ease of use.

    Some experts have given their opinion on how it can be beneficial to the users!  

    Edited excerpts

    Tech content creator Dhananjay Bhosale

    Having access to a web platform is always a plus point. I work on my laptop throughout the day so being able to access the website on my laptop is always welcome! Plus Meta recently introduced audio features and now even edits are also possible so this is very beneficial as we can not only correct our typos quickly but also type long posts easily with the voice feature. Meta should have launched threads with these features, but it’s better late than never. These features are free for all users so that every user can avail of them, whereas other platforms charge for the same set of features.

    Storyteller and content creator Ruchika Lohiya

    Threads is constantly evolving to enhance user experience and provide valuable tools for its users and creators. The web feature has made it easier to communicate in a fast way, as it is accessible via app and website. It is an impactful way to communicate with people with less content but big words! Connecting with one’s circle has become much easier. The user experience will be seamless not only for creators but for everyone. As a user, I am enjoying the web experience and at the same time exploring the web interface to use it at its best.

    As the digital realm continues to expand, innovations like Threads pave the way for a more interconnected and accessible future.
