The Importance of Six
What happens when a dice throw gives you a six?Wikipedia tells me that “Six is the second smallest composite number divisors being 1, 2 and 3. Since six equals the sum of these proper divisors, six is the smallest perfect number.” [Link]
The number of strings on a standard guitar is six. The beehive is six sided. The number of carbon atoms in benzene ring is six and so also atomic number of carbon.
There is something special about the number six. It generates a lot of energy and gives an “Aha” feeling! Just recall what happens when a [cricket] batsman hits a six! The entire stadium gets on their feet and applauds!!The bloggers first met on 20/12/2008 which also adds to six. But the bloggers were only five in number. So they made efforts to get one more in their group, invited six more to join, one accepted [five were far away in blogosphere] to make the group of six!
So they promptly expanded the group to six by organising a bloggers’ meet over lunch.
And so far there were six degrees of separation between them, but it is no longer so now!

What so special about 7 ?
The Bloggers' Lunch was a lot of fun- nice to meet you all in person, not just virtually!
Since I had already Sucharita,Manu and Ugish Konitari I knew what was coming out of the importance of 6..But I really liked the way you have shared about the meeting.. How I wish I would have been in Mumbai to become a part of it 🙂
Hi Vivek!
Nice one; enjoyed reading it. Thanks 🙂
I didnt quite understand the connect of the 6 until sometime later !!
🙂
Nice meeting you after a long time sir !
The virtual one has been cribbing about "rubbing salt into the wounds" after seeing the real lunch pictures. Hopefully, your post about the significance of six, will give him, as you call it, the "Aha" feeling…
Enjoyed the lunch meeting…Thank you.
Interesting post Vivek, when I was intending to comment and scrolled down to do so what did I find? There had already been six had done so …
SPOOKY or what ??
btw six is my lucky number. Now someone else will have to comment to make it up to eight… that's a VERY lucky number in the Chinese world…wonder who will add to this?
Very true, six brings energy and happiness.. when we play ludo with Siddharth six always gives the happiness as we get another turn…
Its amazing to know about the lunch… must have been an exciting experience…I shall agree that the number 'six' is really important.. btw my DOB is 6 🙂
Yes, at the meet we had a lovely busy time, buzzing like bees in a hive!
