Psychic thinking, technically of course

I still have not yet succumbed to Apple products (I still have an iRiver payer as against buying an iPod). Anyway, i was searching for a Nokia N82, and found it to be costly, even now…. Had expected the prices to come down when iPhone is launching. Guess I have to wait for some more time. I am pretty sure the Nokia will pretty soon floodthe market with 3G + Symbian phones. And then I ll buy one J . But first, should start development!!!!

An excerpt: “The RD350 by Yamaha was the premier sport lightweight of the early 1970s. Ahead of its time, it featured an air-cooled, two-cylinder, six-speed, 350cc two-stroke engine. The bike made about 32 to 35 rear-wheel horsepower, very fast for when it was made.”   From: http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/mp/2006/11/22/stories/2006112200840100.htm   I remember (i.e. I am not going to forget) the one time that I managed to ride it… What an awesome bike!!!!!     Dreaming, Sachin  

So many feeds, so many blogs, so many web sites. And what do I face???? … an information overload!!!!   Trying to find out how to clean up the clutter, I came up with many suggested solutions. (Eg. Meme s, follow/track using twitter, Yahoo! Pipes, lifestreams, etc.)… and again I messed up. I realized that the problem I faced is of “missing out something important”. i.e. I keep getting the feeling that if I don’t follow a particular topic/person using one or many of the above technologies, I may miss out something.   Pondering for some time made me realize that there is another similar scenario where information overload has occurred.   Consider journalists. They have been collecting decades, if not centuries of news items, information pieces which may or may not have been published. But kept with the hope that they may be useful at a future point of time. So they have gigabytes (or petabytes?) of information. This information ...

F22 - Raptor Front Shot Originally uploaded by P.Sachin.Nayak This bird is known as the F22, also nick named Raptor. It is one among the most stealthiest, and during it s time has been considered as the (whew!!!) plane... of course they are getting out the F34 now..... I had seen this and many other planes in action.. and i guess these are the real things which i do miss about the United States!!!! But in India the one plane which i feel would make my heart skip a beat would be the Tejas (prev known as LCA). This was one indian plane whose poster i roamed around with when i was a kid. ( Tejas (LCA) . I heard started last year. Neat!!!! Maybe i ll get a chance to se it in the next air show (which i feel should be done on a more regularly)

Guys, I have finally decided to quit Infy... Instead I have decided to do something really worthwile such as maybe stealing money from some financial union. And what made me take this drastic decision? This video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgNEon7vG4k Man… This R15 sounds realllly good. And I don't have enough money to buy this beast… even if I manage to buy it I wont be able to pay it's maintenance and the police guys (who will be bugging me at every signal… am pretty sure) So do drop me a comment, in case there is a 50% discount sale going around somewhere....

Chilkot lake Originally uploaded by P.Sachin.Nayak This place reminded me of a fairy tale kind of land. You know... those which are shown in movies, to bring out the beauty of nature... Actually, the remaining part of this lake was pretty crowded with people. And you can see some other boats in the distance, but otherwise is nt this a nice calm, peaceful place.
