LB/2004, Here I come…

November 24th, 2004

It didn’t take too much convincing. In fact, I didn’t even have to ask. :)

About 15 days ago, I’d sent an email to the entire office about this event, and how good it is, and blah.. blah..

After a few days, Gaj sends me this email:

Are you going? If you are planning to, consider it approved.

How convenient!!

But wait, there’s more…

…you are not requried to go all three days :-)

Works for me :)

How much can one copy?

Close on the heels of American Idol, we now have Indian Idol :P What’s worse, they even copied the logo.

Try their site. You’ll find one of the worst mouse pointers ever. (Never mind the way Sonu Nigam looks in the snap)

Live Bookmarks or Sage?

November 17th, 2004

Today, I downloaded the latest version of Firefox (1.0) and found a new feature called Live Bookmarks. Firefox automatically identifies rss feeds in a page and displays an icon on the bottom right. You can add those feeds into whats called a “Live Bookmark”. In the Bookmarks menu, that feed appears as a folder and all news items in it appear as links.

That got me thinking whether this a good idea afterall. For one thing, it doesnt remember which items I’ve already read. Isn’t Sage or some other rss plugin better?

What do you think?

Bored :(

Unlike most people, we at Interwoven have 10 days of diwali vacation (thanks to Gaj’s forethought). Five days are up. I didn’t plan anything, and I’m just lazing around at home.

God, do I need some *action*!!

My first ray traced image. Used pov-ray. Okay, you guessed it. It was in the user manual. But I’m excited still. The jpeg compression spoiled it a bit though.

Why Osama? Why??
