Act I

The Start:
Imagine yourself browsing using firefox2. You've got like a number of windows with gazzillion tabs each.

The Freeze:
The system freezes, keyboard and mouse stops responding.

The Call:
You do what everyone does, call for help. Ctrl+Alt+Del - nothing, repeat - nothing, .....

The Rescue:
You pull out the internet cable, wait for a few seconds. At last, the task manager appears.. slowly.

The Climax:
You check whats wrong. FIREFOX.EXE CPU:99% Mem Usage:780M!

The Rescue:
Close Firefox.

The Ending:
Realize that I've been browsing for the past 5 hours straight and its well past bed time. Go to sleep.

The Poster:












The Hope:
Firefox3

Why I don't call myself a gamer

Finally!
An Indian gamer's blog, I admit its quite impressive. Calls himself a gamer/geek/dreamer. How I envy him, I've never been able to call myself either of the three(yes, I sleep a lot but I don't dream).

He has an interesting post where he has some useful tips(not about gaming) and a list of great games of 2007.

And I play this.
Don't laugh, you've got to beat me first.

What the?!

Holy Shit!
It got published on the same freakin date :D

For Tech freaks

I came across the coolest and lamest display devices (can't call them monitors, just can't) today. Courtesy CES 2008.





































You can't call them monitors, just can't.

Gamer.. what kind?

Thinking of gaming consoles? Here, let me help

Isn't this great

Censorship in India targets Video Games:

"This is true that there is a proposal that the Censor Board should start censoring all video games--and I agree with proposal totally," India's Censor Board chairperson Sharmila Tagore told the news outlet.
....
....
Tagore also told Daily News & Analysis that the Censor Board would make developers remove certain features from a game if they "are not suitable for children" and would like their game to be available in the country.

Ain't that great news folks. Finally our government is taking steps to protect us from the harsh realities of the world, and you thought they don't care about us - stupid.
I feel they should do more and more on similar lines.

Sigh!

Bye bye 2007

I'm not sure what inspired me to start blogging again, it's probably sepsis's mail about blogging kumaarrs(yes, there are quite a lot of them doing it, blogging I mean ;) ). Especially now that I don't have net at home(we shifted our residence again, our fourth house in past 1 1/2 years) I never thought I'd be blogging so soon. Ok ok, cutting the crap...

I had never seen a jatre(can't think of a word in English, fair doesn't even come close) in a messenger before this.

I'm not a big fan of foxtrot(not the dance) but this is good stuff.

Heard that JKR is thinking of eigth book, I just hope it doesn't end up being a parody of the previous installments by rediscovering the sexual orientations of it's characters. Only Tarantino has the right skill to do those things.

I always support gamers, by principle.. but d00d!

No year end posts ends well without saying something about coming year's anticipated movies.

Peace.
