The circle2corner.com ad on MTV always leaves me with WTF look on my face. What is it? Think of it as myspace for your jhaaduwali bai. #
What kind of a ridiculous name is Pidipompi for a calling card to India. Their ads make me puke! #
Youtube now does movies too: http://www.youtube.com/movies – Found Hera Pheri and couple of hindi flicks too. #
I feel sorry for Sourav. Quit the game and retire all together, please! #
A 12$ entry fee PER person, Filoli gardens is a disaster. Not going there again, even for free. Pictures here: http://tinyurl.com/ckejxs #
Not to mention MySQL. Oh no, Oracle, dont kill it like you killed peoplesoft! MySQL is open source – save it! #
Oracle buying Sun. This is as weird as it gets. Will Java remain open source anymore now? #

Dear realtor. Good luck selling this. http://tinyurl.com/dyx9as #
Listening to Yanni’s album – Tribute, after like 3 or 4 years. I still like it! #
Trying out another mac twitter client – nambu #
Why isn’t Shastri saying ” I just get this feeling that something’s about to give here”. He’s got a black tongue. #
A single open session of firefox consumes 40% of CPU on my mac. Safari – 0.2%. Firefox’s memory hogging is just lousy. #FAIL #

LOST came perilously close to jumping the shark. #

The default Ubuntu desktop background is classy! Now made it my mac background too… #
On OS X, it takes firefox much longer to quit than to start. What a lousy design. #

Now running Ubunton in VM on my MBpro. Can’t get over these stupid Linux fonts. Otherwise, system is a breeze! #
At the rate twitter is growing, it could be as ubiquitous as email accounts in a couple of years… #
What’s happened. Federer has suddenly become human! #

Getting 4Gb Ram for my macbookpro for like 35$ from amazon. RAM prices have fallen, and how! #
Young, healthy and non-injured people should be prohibited from using elevators to get from 1st floor to 2nd floor! Waste! #
@patrix Majority of the Indians will think anything given a 500 Rs note. in reply to patrix #
@patrix Sonia’s nationality is not as a much a problem as her capability is. And isn’t she still the PM, while MMS the shadow anyways? in reply to patrix #
Oh no, on second thoughts, that would open doors for Sonia and her pizza men. I take it back. #
Since our cricket team has a phoren coach, and it has worked so well, why don’t we try a phoren PM too? I think it might work hehe! #

All this shit abt secularism goes only so far till someone throws a stone at your house. #

Wondering about feasibility of doing this road trip: http://tinyurl.com/cqmpks Opinions? Tips? #
Gotta love time capsule. Connected a 6 year old USB hdd, and it popped up right away as another drive on mac! Awesome. #
Oh, didnt know there was a video too for Ek Tera Pyaar http://tinyurl.com/cg9794 #
Currently hooked on to Bohemia’s Punju rap – Ek Tera Pyar, feat Devaki; Love the tune! #
For no reason amazon wants to ship my goods 5 days after I’ve placed it even though its in stock. No wonder its 5-9 days for free dlvry. #
Boring Saturday so far… #
