Yesterday evening, Ravinder called me as he wants me to help him buying a pendrive.
He's one of my best friends. We first met in counseling at Gurukul during 2006. Actually he was the guy I had been sitting next for about six hours atleast in CLT-I that day (same way as I met Shashank Mehta at St. Mary's entrance test in 2000).
Since then Ravinder found my technology enthusiasm very interesting. Though he's now a dropout of B.Sc.

I suggested him to go for Kingston's Datatraveller 2gb(cost effective) or San disk Titanium Cruzer (coz it's downright sexy! look wise). He visited Bhalla Business and Education Center and other PC shops for the same but all of them shown him Transcend's and other such low brands. Now he's in the same problem as Dushyant faced few months ago who later on opted for Umax.
People use to have this type of problem in this city when going for a particular brand and model which is not available in the local market resulting they're left with no choice other than picking up what's available.
So, I told him to get one from Dehradoon market instead.


And he also liked my caller tune.... Nelly Furtado's Say It Right. 

Finally got a chat box working with my wordpress blog. However plugoo didn't worked for me so I got meebo installed in the right sidebar of my blog page and that's with in five minutes.  Yay!

Heck, installing plugoo demands a bit of  HTML knowledge but unlike Meebo Plugoo allows to chat from the messenger itself. While Meebo requires me to sign in to meebo account (on meebo homepage) rather than in my Yahoo messenger. That means even if I'm signed in to my Yahoo messenger meebo widget on my blog page still shows that I'm offline.

I wish I had the intellectual capacity to make full use of web 2.0.

After nearly one month hiatus I started attending chemistry practical.

The Lab. assistance told us to shake the solution bottle for 40 minutes so as to properly distribute the iodine between aqueous and organic layer. While doing so I don’t know how my thumb slipped off the cork of bottle and the solution spilled over my Lab coat.

And what else I haven’t done yet with the themes, still playing fool with colors.

Way back in 2004, sometime in summer vacation I grabbed a computer magazine (IC-Chip) from Cambridge Book Depot, Civil Lines, Roorkee cause of its cover story Confessions of a Connectivity Addict  by Kiran Jonnalagadda (known online as Jace).

After reading that story I realized how interesting it is to share your thoughts, your work and your life online with the people of similar interest. But at that time I was bit too busy in my studies, as I was in XII standard at that time.

With the end of the year 2005 I bought myself a decent camera phone, SE’s W800i and signed up for Live Journal’s  free blog account. To my surprise LJ’s free account limited me to post text only, I wanted to share pictures that I took from my camera phone and that too from the phone itself. This feature requires me to sign up for a paid account. So, I went looking for free online photo sharing communities, and discovered Busythumbs.co.uk.

They were offering me a mobile blog allowing me to post pictures with text on my blog page via MMS. I promptly signed up to their service and posted lots of pictures from my camera phone. I’d posted almost every single picture that I took from my phone and by the time one year spent on that blog, it became a deposit box for my pictures.

Though in the beginning I didn’t bother about feedback and comments to my posts but later I started thinking so. My posts hardly received any feedback. So, I stopped posting anything on that blog. With my recent post getting older and older one day in Feb’07, I received a mail from busythumbs.co.uk saying that my account is closed as per terms to which I agreed at the time of signing up.

And then I started using blogger.com. All these abandoned blogs ended up as a way to store my thoughts and after sometime I stopped blogging.

Now, I needed internet just for downloading music, email, taking part in forms/communities of interest to keep pace with the technology.

But again with the start of this year I’m feeling that I must blog. But this time I’m not going to focus on a particular field though to become a famous blogger requires having a focus.

Now I’m here to bring out the random me or the genuine me, to share what I thought of the things and the people around me and that inspire me. The people who influence my daily thoughts deserve an acknowledgement. I think making my life open in public I’ll be able to gain trustworthiness. This blog is going to be about how I live, things I do or like.

I realized that blogging is not just about updating web pages, but more of a literary spectacle. I want to make web more useful by sharing what I know. May be you end up here finding the solutions of your problems.

So, here I want to promise that:-
