While u are pooping in a loo…

07Dec06

So what happens While u are on a loo pooping yourself out???
Besides always trying to attain the pressure threshold.. u sometimes relax.. think upon the day.. try and plan it out.. and when u are alone in the apartment.. u  read newspaper (here.. in india.. specifically from where i come.. its kinda gross to do that..).. so i say.. poop is very much essential for the well being of an  entity.. but only when its out of the system.. (the disgestive system ofcourse!).. wht saye u?

firefox 2 easter egg

03Dec06

Easter Egg in Firefox 2..
type in about:mozilla in the address bar..

And so at last the beast fell and the unbelievers rejoiced.
But all was not lost, for from the ash rose a great bird.
The bird gazed down upon the unbelievers and cast fire
and thunder upon them. For the beast had been
reborn with its strength renewed, and the
followers of Mammon cowered in horror.

from The Book of Mozilla, 7:15

the interpretation is obvious… for those who know the history of mozilla…  thos who dont know.. idiots.. google it..

online privacy…

23Nov06

Was surfing thorough the Google Book search interface when Google asked me to try something new out… so i clicked on the link.. hell it was Google!! Saw Google Finance on the left of my screen along with some other useful stuff.. the at that precise moment. i realized.. Google might be the worse case of online privacy breach.. I got jitters from just the thought of it..

I use Following Google services

	Blogger
	Browser Sync
	Calendar
	Co-op
	Gmail
	Groups
	orkut
	Page Creator
	Personalized Search
	Reader
	Talk
	Webmaster Tools

Also add in Adsense that is now seen almost on all the websites..

All the Data are stored on googles servers at their disposal whenever they need.. and they are using it..

Yesterday flicker posted the statistics on what camera make/model the flicker users prefer.. ofcourse no one expected this to come out.. just like on one is expecting anything out of google..

Virtually, Google knows your preferences in search, it reads your mails, it knows wht u prefer to read and subscribe (Google reader), heck.. even your chat conversations arent any new to em.. they save it in your gmail account..

Calender gives em sufficent data of what you do in 24 hrs of a single day and 365 days of the year, It even monitors your financial interest (I only hope they didnt get rich using this information.. ofcourse adsense is the key to their revenue according to one of their reports..). With their Google Spreadsheets… forget it.. this is enough..

Just this little feeling of privacy breach got me thinking over it and the one company trusted my billions “Google” comes out to be one of the topmost on the list..

Now i think.. why do i hate only Microsoft??

 

PS: think upon Google browser Sync.. dont leave it out just yet..

War…

21Nov06

ok.. choose between an Epic war movie with shiny armour and swords and arrows and trebuchets and a Sci-fi action movie with all the gadgets u want.. which one will u choose??

People tend to go with the former.. the reason.. we like violence.. we like people slaying each other, man to man, cut throat action, more physical and mental then what gadgets deliver… Hollywood proves it.. Take movies like Troy, LOTR trilogy, and many more.. all are considered as EPIC movies.. they gross well.. of course there are other factors to consider, but the main driving force is violence, the wars, the physicality of it all that makes u like it more, we just enjoy people killing each other with their bare hands with nothing but swords..

even the hardcores geek in you would prefer the EPIC historic movie over their sci-fi counterparts.. so now the geek in you is thinking about “Star Wars” saga eh? all i’ll point u to is “Lightsaber”.. do i need to say more?
