  • MTNL can't market itself for nuts. By default, they got the first mover advantage with 3G. And what did they do about it? Bollocks. #
  • A sign reads No parking in front of gate. Tires will be deflated. Now isn't that counterproductive? #
  • Oh, and I managed to watch Inglorious Basterds today. Loved it. #
  • @Jessica_ITHands for certain we shall speak on it, during the next TKM :-) in reply to Jessica_ITHands #
  • @mahafreed quality tweets, eh? Whatever in God's unholy name is that? in reply to mahafreed #
  • @mahafreed I don't trust twitter is a medium you should be self conscious about while using. Just say what feels right is my mantra. in reply to mahafreed #

  • My brain has been fried by an overenthusiastic, underinformed client. Need 2 hours to recover. #
  • A guy just came up to me and said Saket? I was like, yeah dude do I know you? Turns out he was only asking directions. #
  • My visit to a local pathology lab was futile. Those people were reverse draculas. Turns out they suck blood only in the morning. #
  • @Jessica_ITHands Hey, thanks for listening. Glad you like TKM. The next episode should be out Sunday. in reply to Jessica_ITHands #
  • @Jessica_ITHands Yes, 3 key precautions: All desktop PCs virus free, Complex FTP passwords, Upgrade CMS to latest security releases, always. in reply to Jessica_ITHands #

  • via @vimoh: Now domain names can be registered in indic scripts. Hindi/Marathi domains on the horizon http://ff.im/-aAScK #
  • 'Broken Promises', the latest PC vs Mac ad. http://bit.ly/4eMrPc #
  • Done with the hour long walk and shower. Now to catch up on reading. I've carried with me, two Murakami books for the express purpose. #
  • @purelynarcotic Elephant Vanishes, Norwegian Wood. Done reading Kafka On The Shore, Wind Up Bird Chronicle and Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman. in reply to purelynarcotic #
  • @Reetesh nope, not yet. Download queue was full. Been traveling, that sort of a thing. Will DL this weekend I suppose. in reply to Reetesh #
  • @purelynarcotic not yet. Is it any good? Somehow the blurb sounded cheesy, so didn't buy it. in reply to purelynarcotic #
  • @trippyhippy Wanting to opensource something is one thing. A product focusing on open-source as 'USP' as against quality is quite another. in reply to trippyhippy #
