When you decide to pop into a restaurant next time for a quick bite, do check out the rules board in case they have one…this Iranian restaurant in Hyderabad-India surely has one !!

Been a fan of Mozilla Firefox since the day I started using it. Just fell in love with the features and the best part is I am still in love

Now about the record attempt, the guys back at Mozilla, along with the much anticipated release of Firefox 3, also want to set a Guiness Record of the “most downloaded software in 24 hours”. With a dedicated fan base spread across continents, I don’t see this not happening, they should easily be able to beat the current record.

Just to make sure that you remember to download your favourite browser the day it is officially released, the folks back at Mozilla have created a pledge page on Spread Firefox site. Make sure you go there, pledge your support so that you can be reminded about being a part of that record.

Don’t be evil! At least this time around. Go get firefox.

Been a long time since I have posted. Feel better now and think I should post more often.
Work has been too tiring. Hardly finding time to post. Hope I can be consistent.

The guy in the picture is one of the many porters who crowd the bus stops or railways stations in India. One strong guy I should say, the bike weighs in excess of 150 Kgs(330lbs). The irony is that for all the hardwork he would probably get less than $2 for this. Sure you wont see this in the US. Definitely not so cheap.No wonder everything is being outsourced

Check this out, a really smartly worded Signboard to keep off people from swimming at the RamGanga river in India.

How often have you ordered for a nice meal and got surprised when the final bill came? Once? Many times?
But you surely wouldnt have been as surprised or should I say shocked as the 10 firends who went to Joe Delucci’s Italian restaurant in Bird Street, Lichfield, Staffordshire and found this in their bill:

Yeah, you read it correctly its the F word coupled with a few other beauties

The poor souls are just demanding an apology and a small compensation.What would you have done??? I would surely have some choice words to say to them Evil bill eh???

One of the best videos about Americans and the knowledge they possess about America and the rest of the world

Yeah, Microsoft is at it again, trying to get one up on google. Its trying to buy good old yahoo now.

Microsoft Corp. made an unsolicited $44.6 billion cash and stock bid
for Yahoo on Friday, setting the stage for a deal that would shake up
the competitive and lucrative market for online advertising.

Yahoo shareholders would receive $31 a share, which represents a 62% premium over Yahoo stock price one day earlier.

Steve Ballmer, Microsoft’s chief executive, called the move the “next major milestone” for the software giant.

“We are very, very confident this is the right path for Microsoft and for Yahoo,” Ballmer said.

Microsoft
hopes to close the deal by the end of the year. Ballmer said that
Microsoft has been in “off and on” talks with Yahoo for 18 months and
said he called Yahoo CEO Jerry Yang Thursday night to tell him the bid
was coming.

Microsoft
announced the bid early Friday. In a statement, the company said the
offer allows Yahoo shareholders to elect to receive cash or a fixed
number of shares of Microsoft common stock, with the software giant’s
offer consisting of one-half cash and one-half Microsoft common stock.

In a statement, Yahoo acknowledged receipt of the offer and said its board would evaluate the proposal “carefully and promptly.”

But the sad part is Microsoft would still be second in the search business and still they would be making their same old overpriced software. And yeah their stock price fell after they decided to make the bid public.

Google would be watching this closely and looks like someone at Yahoo is gonna get rich soon. My only hope is that if this deal goes through, the ideas of Yahoo would combine with the money power that Microsoft has and give us something better than, what both of them can offer separately. But sadly, it may create another internet monopoly too which is scary because Microsoft is involved.
