  • The Barnes & Noble Nook is positively hot. Makes the kindle look like an ugly duckling! http://ff.im/-afAH3 #
  • Mother is going senile. She just asked me 'LSD kadhi ghenar aahe', she actually meant the LCD I mean to buy for my bedroom. #
  • @hiway 'I'm a PC' is Microsoft grossly misinterpreting the Apple ad. The characters in the ad are PC/Mac personifications, not end-users! in reply to hiway #
  • @sumants yes, the invite mechanism is meant to keep retards out. Unfortunately, its only the retards who hanker after invites. in reply to sumants #
  • @Pankaj_Dheer the same which everybody else usually does in Thane, I guess? in reply to Pankaj_Dheer #
  • The following are marketing weasel words, and should be ignored: engaging, entertainng, buzziest, admired, viral, top-of-mind. More later. #
  • @desifinado But then, I like to precede my statements with Clearly. It sounds great when you are telling people off! in reply to desifinado #
  • @mixdev For me it is Counterstrike: Condition Zero in reply to mixdev #
  • @warrenellis a threesome, I suppose, would be interesting. in reply to warrenellis #
  • Dear Scene guys, what's the great idea with split RAR archives on Torrents? Hardly saves space, serves no purpose. Just makes things messy. #

  • Just curious. When you say that your religion is 'Spiritual' on Facebook, what the hell do you exactly mean? #
  • Damn all viruswriters. Damn malware. #
  • Microsoft Windows is one of the single largest curses to Planet Earth. #
  • Dubstep is good work music. Today's mood is Boxcutter. #
  • Deleted a directory on Linux server using port 21 FTP instead of to SSH. Now suffering since the past half hour with nested file deletion. #
  • I've really come to love Facebook Lite. No Farmville, No Mafia Wars. No Quiz Apps. No annoying chat window. Zen. #
  • The internet. Is. Fucking. Slow. #
  • Dear SWSoft, I would greatly appreciate if you release a lite version of Plesk for underprivileged Indians. Everyone is doing that. #
  • @amitgupta Sure, I've been doing that. Not only apps, I even block people who use them. But the point is, more apps just keep sprouting. in reply to amitgupta #
  • @ruch And what precisely was that supposed to mean? in reply to ruch #
  • Out with the team for Sizzlers and Hookah at Zu's in Lokhandwala. 12 people make quite a crowd. #

  • RT @mataal You mean government? @sids Google Wave is actually great for projects where you want to discuss a lot but not really do anything. #
  • @topa I edit them all the time. To correct typos, remove extraneous punctuation, capitalize correctly and at times shorten them to fit. in reply to topa #
  • Finally someone in the Government is bold enough to admit that India needs to cut down on emissions. Now, will Congress fire Jairam Ramesh? #
  • @topa sure they do. No worries. #
  • Death is what makes life so beautiful. #
  • Seriously, marketers at Yahoo are pathetic. After spending 100 million dollars, the big idea is still personalization? What is this? 2002? #
  • If you send me your resume on email, and state that you are waiting for my 'replay', clearly I'm not hiring you. #
  • Thank you Twitter, for directly integrating spam reporting into the web interface. The @spam approach was clearly inferior. #
  • Leaving phone back home, while I go for a walk. Not having it gives me a wonderful sense of freedom. Something urgent? Well, it has to wait. #
  • A cold shower followed by a little gatorade after a long hard walk, and you feel like a new man. #
  • A client has requested us to block Google Sidewiki from his site. These people are fucking clueless. #
  • Simplest way to explain Bittorrent: It's like a bunch of computers having groupsex. #
  • Re: Previous tweet. Mine is currently engaged in an orgy with 24 others. #
  • Cleaned up and synced Address Books on Blackberry and Mac. Dead Contacts, Changed Numbers, Duplicates all gone. Enjoying the Zen feeling. #
  • The new Mac hardware is just awesome. Totally want 27" iMac. Better hardware at the same price, makes existing Mac users go green with envy! #
  • @vimoh you are using crowdsourcing to do math? Come, come. The calculator app is a lot faster. in reply to vimoh #
  • Dear makers of Perian, I am not blind. Subtitles don't need to be so huge. A lower default plus an option to reduce font size would help. #

  • @punkpolkadots is 0 allowed? in reply to punkpolkadots #
  • The great thing about the Holiday season is that baths are entirely at your own convenience. I've just had my first since Saturday morning. #
  • Watching Surrogates. Till now, its looking very cheesy and wannabe. But what the heck, its scifi. Will watch it just for dumb entertainment. #

  • Diwali made me take a break from healthy eating. Sweets. Chocolate. Milkshake. Chinese. Chaat. Instant Noodles. Mom's Chicken. I'm a sinner. #
  • Smartypants building secy commandeered some plumbing work, subsequent to which water supply to both bathrooms mysteriously stopped. Pissed. #
  • Hate it when you run ./configure on Linux, and it gives 'stuff missing' errors one at a time? There's an easier way http://ff.im/-a3tsK #
  • Life is just nature’s way of keeping meat fresh http://ff.im/-a4jjx #
