Crap Work

You'll know what crap work/stress means when you are sitting in a cubicle confined to doing EVERYTHING which is useless, knowing that doing it will no way help you in what you plan to become and being unable to shift out of it for "personal reasons".

Template modification completed!!!

Finally, I got the template fixed :) Comments requested. Features provided: Not sure whether all are available on other browsers. We have a policy which prevents us from installing softwares not provided with Windows. New colors My photo Minimize-Maximize panel, my favourite. Everybody seem to be awing it ;) (do click the minus sign next to the post's title. Non-IE users do pass your comments, i have not been able to try it out. Other than the neat features, do return to see the posts which will be posted soon. I got my BloggerPost tool ready. (Feeds the blog thru the ATOM API). Am searching for names to christen it, and of course it needs to be perfected upon. Can anybody think of any new neat functionalities to put on this blog??? And lastly, need to tell sorry to blogger, for using up quite a bit of their resources. Thanks blogger!!!!

Imagine...an internet based world

Was reading "The Google Story", when i got this wierd idea. Consider a stripped down version of Linux, meant only for doing simple things such as browsing the internet, to read from the various drives (which is primarily meant only for storage of personal data), to play music and some single-player games. All the rest provided by the internet. Information searching/Chatting/Mailing/Documentation editing/journal maintenance/daily schedule maintenance/news/rss/shopping, etc. What else will you use for your computer for? Ok, actually i have been working on mainframes for some time now and am getting adjusted to the "dumb terminal" concept. Then i started associating the concept with scenario we are observing all over the net. As a matter of fact this will reduce the power of processing required on the client side also!!! Looks like the world is changing.... for the bettter, yup, i am sure. technorati tags: New internet age , dumb terminal , internet based world

Co-incidence?

"Deadly thing, this inner voice. That's why most folks pretend they can't hear it. Or choose to drown it out. Because listening to it may mean acting in ways which are strange and unacceptable in society." These are just some of the wordings on Rashmi Bansal 's blog. (entry reference " The Inner Voice: Can you hear it? "). I won't be mentioing too much about what's going on in my head after reading this article. But this article does clear up my head. A slow realization creeps which insists that "I am not the only one facing this dilemma. There are others like me.". Have always been a FIRM believer of the old saying "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear". Need to go back to clearing my head. technorati tags: Inner voice , listening to inner voice , help in deciding

PARITRANA

As if there were not enough political parties in India, another new one has been set up. But this does seem to be different. Paritrana has been started by a group of "well educated" (Most of them IITians) indians. Had never delved into politics before, but now i am getting interested. If you have been as dumb as i have been you' ll require the wiki about indian political party: Wikipedia comments technorati tags: politics in india , paritrana , iitians start political party

Finally decided

I have been having these various itch since quite some time. Both about what i am doing here (where i work) and what am i meant to do. Finally, i have decided "I need a job change". I guess IT services industry was never meant to be the right industry for me. Don't get me wrong there, it's not that i wanna quit because i am not getting any interesting work, it's just that I have ideas about life which does not match with what my company is doing. (As amatter of fact, they have some really beautiful concepts which are great to work on). But i have believed web to be the future and now i have started realising that personal dreams do become quite a pain in the neck, when they are ignoired. Huh.... now that i put it on a log, i feel much better. Back to work...
