Monday, November 16th, 2009

Hmmm.. after a long time, I decided to turn off the Twitter weekly updates and blog manually whenever I find time. And since I bought a new Sony Ericsson C510, I’ve decided to put up a Photostream section as well.

And also, I won’t be able to blog regularly. So will put up a small section for my twitter updates, so you can get know what I’ve been upto.

Cya!

Getting busy.. Getting lazy.. Why? What?

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

If you are active reader on my inactive blog, you might have noticed that I’m not posting anything from past few months. This is because, I’m getting busy managing my sites and a forum on one hand and on another hand I’m becoming lazier everyday to post in this personal blog.

Since I am getting lazy to post in this personal blog, I decided to let a wordpress plugin to do the job. I’m pretty active on twitter and tweet every now and then. So the plugin will publish whatever I tweeted for last one week on every Sunday night. (Very helpful for a lazy guy like me).

Anyway some of the most happening/happened from past two months are:

  1. I am designing one new open source template every month.
  2. I moved my site from a shared Indian hosting to a US based VPS.
  3. I am now busy in my exams.
  4. I won a free domain in Namecheap twitter contest!
  5. I’m more active on social networking sites than forums. Except stupid orkut.
  6. Airtel hit me down by withdrawing Airtel Online GPRS service in Karnataka.
  7. Busy working on a small project related to Planetary Geology.
  8. Made easy 500 bucks for giving a budget PC configuration for 10 PCs for a local cybercafé walla. :D

I might have forgot few other things, but u might go through my tweets to find what I did and what I am doing :p

Ahh.. Summer is here!

summer

It’s almost end of the march, and am blogging about the summer now, just because I am lazy and was pretty busy doing nothing but roaming.

This summer, its pretty hot here in Bangalore with daytime temperatures reaching 34+ Degree Celsius. When compared to other cities, this temperature is in fact cool. But here in Bangalore, anything above 28 Deg C is hot! Maybe we feel hot, coz we are adjusted to the cool and moderate climate of Bangalore. But this time the temperature has gone up, thanks to global warming.

I hope, you guys are keeping yourself cool drinking good juice, beverages, water etc. If you neglect drinking good amount of whatever I mentioned earlier will lead to dehydration and eventually it will cause fatigue.

And Finally, I Installed Windows Vista!

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

vista logoMay sound lame, but it’s true. I installed Windows Vista Ultimate on my desktop along with windows XP as a dual boot. Ever since windows vista was released, I haven’t installed it on my machine. And now that windows 7 will be out sooner or later (considering the beta is out, the final release must be out soon), I decided to install windows vista on my desktop until I get my hands on windows 7.

So its a kind of farewell to windows vista. It doesn’t mean that I’vent used windows vista at all. I was using vista everyday at college and in my friend’s lappy. As few people brag, vista doesn’t suck that hard. It just requires good set of hardware and that’s a cakewalk for vista. And even my new vista ultimate installation on my 768MB DDR 400MHz RAM with nVidia 7300GT 512MB runs very fine. Along with all eye turned on, including Aero.

Yet, XP continues to be my primary OS. And Ubuntu will be my alternative choice. Anyway, thats what all I had to say this month. There is no other big happenings. It’s a lazy month for me.

And as far as windows vista license is concerned. It’s genuine!
