  • On my way to work. Its yet another manic Monday. #
  • I don’t know what overtaking is all about on Mumbai’s roads. I’ll reach the next traffic jam before you? #
  • R. R. Patil resigns? Good riddance! #
  • Zen Estilo is the gayest looking automobile ever seen on Indian roads. What sort of a jerk buys one? #
  • In office. There’s a sudden barrage of Facebook Group invitations I must deal with. #
  • Facebook Group title “Demand Vilasrao Patil’s Resignation now”. Vilasrao Patil? Whoever started the group needs a lesson in local politics! #
  • @cruisemaniac Frick!!! You are actually using IE. #
  • My Last.fm client hasn’t scrobbled anything for the past 2 days despite full internet access. Is it working for you? #
  • @cruisemaniac You need to petition your IT Dept. Internet explorer is not compatible with the internet! #
  • @cruisemaniac I doubt if either Tiesto or Paul van Dyk qualify as trance. Wouldn’t they be techno/dance? #
  • The Facebook Groupster got his wish. Vilasrao Deshmukh is resigning. #
  • Fortune Magazine: Why can’t Microsoft make money online? http://ff.im/aMr1 #
  • Erasing and reinstalling the Last.fm client seems to have helped. Scrobbling is working again. Yay! #
  • Facebook Connect Has Arrived http://ff.im/aNaR #
  • Microsoft NOT in talks with Yahoo, NYT statements are false http://ff.im/aNaQ #

  • Coldplay – Lost http://ff.im/aNcJ #
  • Coldplay – Yellow http://ff.im/aNcH #
  • Radiohead – The Bends http://ff.im/aNcI #
  • Okay, conflicting news. Has Vilasrao Deshmukh resigned, or has he merely offered to resign? If its the latter, take up the offer quickly! #
  • wordpress.com is weak. It is asking me to lower the security setting for Cookies on my browser for it to work. Why? #
  • @snehamathew Outta twitter? #
  • IRONY : Get Website downtime alerts via Twitter ! http://ff.im/aO54 #
  • “Using Twitter to get downtime alerts = EPIC FAIL!” re: http://ff.im/aO54 #
  • Dire Straits – Sultans of Swing http://ff.im/aOVj #
  • Radiohead – Weird Fishes/Arpeggi http://ff.im/aOVi #
  • @cruisemaniac I love that track too. You should also listen to He’s A Pirate and Adagio For The Strings #
  • Its only since yesterday that I’ve listened to Coldplay’s new album. Viva La Vida is good stuff! #
  • @cruisemaniac Get yourself a Last.fm account to discover more. You can auto-share your loved tracks on twitter, through Friendfeed! #
  • Coldplay – Lovers in Japan-Reign of Love http://ff.im/aPIA #
  • @spam @divya_sharma #
  • Gmail has added a new feature called ‘Last account activity.’ It shows up in the future. Good for those times when you leave desk unattended #
  • I think Manticores are rather cool. Lions with crazy Dragon wings. I like the concept. #
  • Mark Knopfler – It’s Over http://ff.im/aRd4 #
  • @b50 I have started suspecting involvement from the Candle Mafia #
  • Seen Email Sig: “Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail”. Dude, why the fuck would I ever want to print your email? #
  • @manimeow In the honor of Mumbai terror victims, please no killing for a while. #
  • Retweeting @prempanicker: On a slightly lighter note: Opposition parties have demanded that Ramgopal Varma should quit. LOL! #
  • Oh, and by the way, the moon is awesome today. Go check it out! #
  • @sudhanshuraheja I dont know why people like to make such asses of themselves. Our politicians should be banned from public speech! #
  • At home, relaxing. Some food to come, the next hour and half shall be spent cooling down before hitting the sack. #
  • @akgoyal You referring to the one from How I Met Your Mother? It certainly is! #
  • @Aalaap Crazy morons! Where exactly do they manage to come up with some language! #
  • I swear I ignored a bunch of Facebook Group invitations in the morning. They are mysteriously back! #
  • A highly distant school chick just gave me beer through Superpoke. No wall post, nothing. Facebook throws up some unimaginable stuff! #
  • To reciprocate, I decided to be fabulous with her. Its amazing how you keep in touch with people these days. #
  • I hate the mention of Gadgets used in Terror Attacks in News Sources. The overall attitude somehow seems to lean towards ‘gadgets are bad’! #
  • So what’s the big deal if Simpsons parodies Apple? Doesn’t everyone parody everyone these days? #
  • @Aalaap Thanks. I’m making a beeline for the TV #
  • @Aalaap Yes she is. But then she sounds kinda awkward speaking “Aaj Tak Hindi” #
  • BTW Do checkout Last.fm’s Best of 2008 Feature. This is crowdsourcing at its coolest. #
  • @Reetesh What I meant to say is the story isn’t all that newsworthy. It kinda came up thrice on Tech News blogs, I thought that was too much #
  • @Aalaap Faved :-) #
  • @twilightfairy Nothing in particular. I was just playing with Superpoke out after a long time. New Action. You were a part of the Lucky 30! #
  • Why do I feel so terribly sleepy? I planned to crash in early but that was fucking voluntary! I guess you can’t win them all. #
  • Guess I really must sleep. Weak. Okay then – Good night, world! #
  • Bonobo – Terrapin http://ff.im/b5of #
