Beyonce brought to you by Accenture 2007-10-26 08:46:00 Yes. You read that right. I know it doesn't have any link with Technology as such, so does the entire Beyonce
gig about to happen in India. What makes Accenture endorse such an event is still wondering me. I tried to tweak the thing. See,the thing is Google Adsense says:And I tried to hit the URL not through adsense. And well, as expected, it had no signs of Beyonce anywhere. I could not hit my own adsense ad , and so what I did was search "Beyonce in India" on Google. The first result as expected again, was the same Google Adsense ad. I hit the Link , and found this page.True. High performance.Delivered. Hehehe. The Accenture connection. Technically Bootylicious. Bay-beh!!!
Surprise.Microsoft Profited. 2007-10-26 07:52:00 Yes. NY Times has the full report. But that's for all those who want to dig deep down how they did it? The news is" THEY DID IT". Even after an Operating System "upgrade" after 5 years which sells for a ridiculous price tag, a system hardware requirement which sucks in more resources than the best vacuum cleaner in the market could, and yyes, even after the slaughter of the Zune. NY TIMES reports that the Redmond guys have earned 1.1 billion $ more this quarter, and the profits have rose by 23%.Shockingly enough, the major 'loser' in the Microsoft
Umbrella has been its internet sites. Read more:Surprise

Are my shoes smart enough to make me look smart even in a dumbass pose like ..umm..."this"? Read more:Quote

Bad Vista!! 2007-10-22 01:06:00 Ok. You've already read it a zillion times by now. And I might just sound resonating with the already heard voices screaming out their lungs in pain against the new OS,Windows Vista
.The new OS from the Redmond guys, after a 5 and a half year hiatus since XP,(the Kai-Ro project as they call it), and a zillion beta releases and corresponding names ranging from Whistler to Longhorn to what not, Vista was released to a limited fanfare (I assume).But it wouldn't be wrong that geeks worldwide have trashed and bashed the new OS more than Windows Me to the length of calling it a crap-a-load-of-unwanted-shit. At a requirement of a GB of RAM,15 GB Hard Drive Space and a whole list of unwanted features which not only drag your PC experience, what'd be the justification from Mr.Gates' side, I really wonder.Simply put its a grossly obese OS which demands more than a Page 3 celebrity and well does not perform as well as it should.I wake up in the middle of the night imagining the kind of nightma

i-Hate 2007-10-18 13:51:00 Yeah! you read that right.Someone did write an entire article stating reasons( well justified ones) of why he hates Macs so much. This guy goes by the name David Ramel,e-mail newsletter/Networking channel editor at Computerworld.He begins:~My boss just said we're moving to Macs. I don't know if he was serious, but it might really happen -- he's a bona-fide, born-again Mac zealot, after decades of using real computers (he even had his own, successful Windows-centric newsletter).I joked that I'll switch to a Mac after they pry the PC from my cold, stiff fingers. In reality, I'll just go along with the program and lose about 30% in productivity.I hate Macs.The picture above is just an illustration and not the picture of Mr.Ramel. All said and done,I don't know what problem he has with Steve Jobs' black turtleneck . He calls Mr.Jobs , a rockstar wanna-be. Ok! Apple fans take notice. Retaliate.This is what he said:~I hate everything Apple -- starting with rock star wanna-be Steve Job
Appleicious 2007-10-18 03:44:00 You'd say it is quite unfair on my part to not show some love for Mr.Gates. I know that. I have been writing a lot about Apple and the whole iUmbrella. Do you wanna know the reason why I just can't keep my eyes off them. There's a word for it-Appleicious. To experience this phenomena, just feast your eyes upon the pics that follow. Peace.And to end with...Life is iBeautiful.

Go to apple.com to see the actual countdown.What I have as of now is ....THIS. Read more:Leopard
StumbleUpon: Better than Digg 2007-10-18 03:25:00 Yes, in every form. My site's traffic has gone high radically. Am experiencing a new high as I'm getting more and more readers to read me stuff. Well, not entirely technological. But yeah, StumbleUpon
rules.The topic based searching, the Firefox Add-on toolbar, and well random page browsing. It is so very much feature rich, and I loved it. More than Digg
. What can I say? I can't keep away from the internet now.
Adsense :Nonsense 2007-10-18 00:48:00 Acting Haywire Completely. I actually started writing 'whore' instead of haywire coz that was what was on my mind. Don't believe me what I say, take a look.Indian Stories. Find great deals and save?WTF. Read more:Adsense

World's richest Man 2007-10-29 12:56:00 By the time I post this , I am sure it would already be termed as the news of the day. That's ok. I ain't here to be the first one to post like those bloody news channels on air. I am here just to well, BLOG.Anyway, so you must have heard the news. The World
's Richest man is ...hold it...Mukesh Ambani,Chairman of Reliance Industries. Now the question is, why is this news being featured on a Tech Blog. The answer my friend is because Mr.Ambani surpassed ex-No.1 Microsoft head-honcho( we know who).Following a strong share price rally on in his three group companies, India's most valued firm Reliance Industries, Reliance Petroleum and Reliance Industrial Infrastructure, the net worth of Mukesh Ambani rose to $63.2 billion (Rs 2,49,108 crore).Here is what the list says.The five richest people in the world with their net worth1. Mukesh Ambani ($63.2 billion)2. Carlos Slim Helu ($62.2993 billion)3. William (Bill) Gates ($62.29 billion)4. Warren Buffett ($55.9 billion)5. Lakshmi Mittal ($
Why Digg Sucks 2007-10-29 09:42:00 You'd say I'm just whinin after the entire digg fiasco chapter that hit me. I must admit that my Monday hasn't been cheerful at all. I felt like a pirate or a thief who tried to steal something. Only, I don't know what I stole. Its almost 8:15 pm in the night, and I tried searching if anyone has also been a victim to the Dig of Digg
. And this is what I found. Jennifer Laycock from SearchEngineGuide has posted a wonderful post which made my night a bit better than my day. In this post,linked here she has posted some of the reasons why skipping digg makes sense.I would like to share some. The title goes as :Social Bookmarking: Skip Digg and Go Niche She states the reasons to skip digg as~Digg has a very hostile user base; niche sites have supportive onesDigg is not transparent; we don't know why some stories get buriedWell, I do second those views. For the whole list go to the link here.Well there are other reasons too. Like most of the digg hits are for celeb gossips blogs like TM
Digg Banned me 2007-10-28 23:03:00 It comes to me as a shock, a pretty big one on an early Monday morning. Digg
.com has just banned my account. I really don't know what is the reason. I have dropped them a mail for the issue. But I've got no reply as of now. I will have to wait for just another day or two. And probably remove the "digg it" link from my blogs. I am really really upset.Because I don't recall any step taken by me which violated the T&C of Digg.This is friggin' ridiculous.Bye Digg. You spent me up like money and hunge me out to dry.The other bookmarking sites, here I come. Read more:Banned
