- Ever since the redesign, I really like visiting twitter.com. Tweeting from there just so. #
- Feeling disoriented after lunch at McDonalds. Gah! Where’s my coffee? #
- This is to settle a dispute between me and @zaphod. How many total rings are there in Lord Of The Rings. Do Men also have original rings? #
- Deleted at least 13 unopened episodes of Buzz Out Loud from my iTunes. They are too old to listen now. 20MBx13! I feel wasteful. #
- @sumants @zaphod My bad. I thought there were 11. i.e. 3 +7 +1. Was confused if Men had rings. #
- Going back home after a listless day. Listening to Knopfler: Roll On Charlie Boy. Roll On… #
- Knopfler does some really cool scottish pipes! #
- Feasting on a frozen packet of cashewnuts I found in the fridge. #
Monthly Archive for September, 2008
- NetNewsWire is killer. I haven’t seen a better Desktop Feedreader. (This despite its quirky shortcuts. Cmd + Ctrl + ‘ anyone?) #
- Lifehacker has a sponsored link "Download IE8 Today, its Free!". I don’t know whether to trust them now on anything! #
- Reading BlackBerry iPhone rival: hitting UK in October at http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/9809/s/1f353eb/l/0L0Stechradar0N0C469915/st … #
- Dunno much about a Featureset comparison, but T-Mobile’s G1 is ugly for certain. I don’t mean the OS. I mean the phone. #
- A guy just purchased condoms and eyedrops at a chemists. Weird combination. Not sure he really needed the eye drops. #
- Also watched Wednesday. Must say decently done. Good Pace and some interesting dialogues. Didn’t expect anything intelligent at all! #
- ‘The iPhone you’ve been waiting for’ is a supremely lousy tagline. Couldn’t Airtel do better? They do decent TVCs but totally suck at print! #
- On my way to the Airport. Flying to Bangalore at 8:20 #
- Whoever came up with the name ‘Kingfisher Red’? That, by far, is the lousiest name for an Airline in the history of Air Travel! #
- I don’t quite get why Terrorists and allied criminals are allowed to cover their faces with a cloth, when they are arrested and led by cops. #
- The referendum for farmers and land owners in Raigad over land acquisition for the Reliance SEZ project is a step in the right direction! #
- Landed at Bangalore. Happy about the fact that this time round, there’s no cabin baggage. #
- The road from Bangalore Airport to the city is simply brilliant. Was too sleepy last time round to notice it. #
- At a clients office. I can see a hardbound file entitled “Blade Server Documents”. Blade Servers and Hardbound Files. Fucking antithetical! #
- At the client’s canteen for Lunch. Contending with a great deal of suspicious looking Madrasi food. I want Dal and Parathas! #
- I’ve been given a Wired LAN connection and I’m not happy with it for a. Doesn’t look good with a Mac and b. I get a DHCP IP but no internet! #
- @peegeekay tough luck. Gotta leave tonight. Next time. #
- There’s a bloody proxy here which disallows outbound SMTP access. 9 messages languishing in my outbox since yesterday! There’s no justice. #
- Stuck in the midst of a bunch of doddering old fools who masquerade as the senior IT department guys but know jackshit about the internet! #
- The doddering fools are arguing amongst themselves while guiding my Servicing Head through editing a sitemap PPT on Projector. This is mad! #
- The client wants ’spare blank pages’ in the website, if they need to ‘add more links’ in the future. God save this company! #
- We seem to have covered all the points that were to be discussed. Yet, the meeting still drags on. Let me outta here. #
- Meeting the Brand Manager now. I have deep suspicions that he’s gay. #
- Update: Just spotted the picture of his wife and kid. He’s bisexual. #
- Mommy! I wanna go home. #
- They seem to be playing loud Heavy Metal inside a closed conference room. Probably demoing an ad. But it sure sounds out of place! #
- Escape at last! #
- In a Meru Cab on my way to the Airport. Can’t wait to get back to Bombay! #
- Gah! I hate it when I receive newsletters and emailers on the Blackberry. They are a waste of bandwidth. More so on the Blackberry. #
- The scenery notwithstanding, the Airport Road which came across as so pleasant in the morning, now looks like a criminal waste of time! #
- In the Aircraft finally. Look forward to a long nights sleep once I get home. #
- Autoride home. Need to make a small detour to pick up house keys. #
- A sari clad old lady with graying hair who must be around 60 for sure is driving a Maruti Zen. That too with nobody else in the car. Crazy! #
- Settling myself up in front of the TV. Wanna catch WWE Unforgiven at 11:00. #
- Funny how chairs and other paraphernelia are always freely available around the WWE ring for special use. #
- Shawn Michaels has really grown OLD. I kinda remember him from when he was Intercontenental Champion and had a rivalry with Bret Hart. #
- @Reetesh Me too. We all disliked Michaels then. Bret Hart was the rightful WWF champion #
- 65 minutes into the game, Man U lead Chelsea 1-0. Very hard to tell if Chelsea can get the equaliser. They have had some good opportunities. #
- Equaliser. Kalou substitutes Ballack and scores for Chelsea #
- 1-1 is the Final Scoreline #
