Patelshot

Masabi told me today that me and Mukka appear in the first page of results on a Google search for ‘patelshot’.

This is not because my page rank has suddenly skyrocketed, but because the mainstream spelling of the phrase is Patel Shot. Dropping the space and converting the phrase into a single word seems to have been an IIM-B innovation.

IIM-B innovations must be spread and popularised. Therefore, dear readers, I appeal to you: the next time you find a  photograph of some random tourist in the foreground of a famous monument, please call it a ‘Patelshot’ and not a ‘Patel shot’. I will be very grateful to you for this act of kindness.
