Kochi IPL Team christened their team name as Indi Commandos. Soon with protests from fans the name was changed to Indi Commandos Kerala. If information has to be true , its a total sell out of the name. From the twitter conversations there is likelihood that Tata “IndiCom” could be a major sponsor of the Kochi Team. So they have use Indi Commandos as the team name. This is just a speculation and there is no evidence to support this.

If its true then i am just waiting to see how the Social Media would respond to the total Sale of name which was won for a bid amount of over 1500 crore.

The Kochi ipl team aka indi commandos seems to be  purely business minded and trying to spin money on all possible fronts. In the process they forgot that a good name matters a lot to the thousands of fans out their without their support no brand can be built.

I have created some new format facebook groups and was added to some groups which i just muted the conversations and emails. Today when  i tried to request access to a group in the newly created facebook group format, I was shown a pop up saying that i am a member of too many groups and i should remove myself from some groups to gain access to other groups.

I have not much information on this as to how many groups a person can be a member of, or does old group also gets counted etc. I did a search on Allfacebook.com but could not find any information on the same.
