Director of community engagement for @nytimes. I work on article comments, messaging, live audio. Formerly a Mumbai and Silicon Valley correspondent.

A bit of professional news: I am moving to a new role at @nytimes, leading our community engagement efforts. I will be focused mostly on conversations on our site and app, but will still have a hand in messaging and Twitter Spaces. https://t.co/b2pg0h6MPH

@waltmossberg @WSJ Wow, that tweet took only 9 years to surface in your timeline. I noticed that X has been resurrecting (Xcavating?) old posts a lot these days.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

Ouch, that ad (and that placement) has gotta hurt @waltmossberg's old bosses at @wsj.

The @nytimes channel on Telegram began with an email I sent on a Friday night. A team was formed, and a week later, we were publishing our news about the Russia-Ukraine war there. Here's the inside story of how it came together. https://t.co/1QfvOyGyRP

@_shankarganesh @nytimes No, not enough demand for it. Sorry.

@ByMikeBaker And then there was my house, where the teens took the full bowl of candy (including the bowl).

@WritersofColor @nytimes Ask as part of the application

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@WritersofColor @nytimes I am not the hiring manager, but the pay would depend on the level of experience of the job candidate.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@jonathanwatts @inafried CNN is calling it a "bloodless coup" on their live TV coverage.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@Curious0Cat @nytimes I won't be writing articles in this current job. It's more of a behind-the-scenes role.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@karmabhutia Thanks. I don’t think the paywall is going anywhere. But subscriptions are pretty cheap these days.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

The station’s uplink suddenly went dead. A bland message told viewers there was no signal. But this was no technical difficulty. It was censorship by the Indian government. https://t.co/v9JXlLkCoX

@Birottam @LangaMahesh The suspension applies to most visas, including tourist, business and student visas. If you feel you really need to come to India before April 15, you can apply at your local mission for a new visa and seek an exemption.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@Babanomics @nytimes Do it!

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@BhaktMomo Indian nationals should be fine to re-enter India. No mandatory quarantine for arrival from Saudi Arabia at this point.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@Ondippulee @nytimes @SwarajyaMag Glad you support what you like.

[Vindu Goel @vindugoel]

@dhruvabhat @EmergingRoy If you're already in India, you are OK. But if you are outside India, visas already granted are suspended until April 15. They are enforcing this at the point of departure.
