<br />
No matter how bluntly we say that, "its okay its just money" there are many other things important than money. It’s not all true. Money is always "THE" important thing. No matter how good you are, how generous you are, how selflessly you work for some thing/some one; by the end of it all, if you don’t have money, you are just nothing. <br />
<br />
Human relations, emotions, Feeling of oneness/together blah blah blah.... All trash<br />
<br />
All are secondary<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><em>You are something if you have that one thing, else you are just nothing!!</em></span></strong><br />
<br />
Its very important one realizes it very soon that the world rotates around money. If you don’t have that you are nothing at all to your dear one too. This might not surface right upfront. But will surely come up one day, one time or the other.me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-6071011758907366792010-03-15T01:05:00.000-04:002010-03-15T01:05:04.136-04:00The Hindu : Life & Style / Money & Careers : Seven habits of effective women<a href="http://beta.thehindu.com/life-and-style/money-and-careers/article244529.ece">The Hindu : Life & Style / Money & Careers : Seven habits of effective women</a>me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-91836555950099483052010-03-15T00:58:00.000-04:002010-03-15T00:58:03.691-04:00wowI love this Beta version of the Hindu Website.<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3SdVQe5mP8U/SbL1w2I56PI/AAAAAAAAIhs/fvdGX_BTQ0Y/s1600/happy+womens_day+wallpaper.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" kt="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3SdVQe5mP8U/SbL1w2I56PI/AAAAAAAAIhs/fvdGX_BTQ0Y/s320/happy+womens_day+wallpaper.jpg" /></a></div><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">My salute to all those who work relentlessly, selflessly to bring to light the atrocities women face and fight for justice and betterment of women. I’m very glad that situations have been getting better with time. Women today definitely have a reason to smile for being provided an opportunity on par with men in almost all the walks of life. Nevertheless even today we still find women being harassed, tortured for various reasons, they have grown strong comparatively. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Was going through the history of Women’s Day celebrations. Thought it would be a great message to share. <a href="http://www.internationalwomensday.com/about.asp">CLICK HERE</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">and another very intresting article written by <a href="http://www.countercurrents.org/gender-sharma080304.htm">Kalpana Sharma</a> that I wana share. </span>me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-44959049469692739672010-03-06T05:34:00.001-05:002010-03-08T01:45:43.452-05:00Lifez like this<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Another fake baba scan unleashed. It feels so ridiculous that how can people be so stupid and how can they believe in someone just like that. Amma Bhagwan; the so called divine couple say they have a vision to transform this world into a more beautiful place by charging high amount of money from the so called dasis. Huh…. News also reveals that the Babas minimum charges are from 5000 bucks and can extend to close to 2 lks if the dasa’s wants to spend 10 minutes in the presense of the so called divine baba. (lol) I wonder how people can believe such junk. People are ready to put in their hard earned money to a baba who says can heel the world but do not want to use a little bit of their brain & look into what kind of baba he is, what are the works he does, what exactly is the matter with him. So sad..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">As soon as amma bhagwands scam was unleased, media people got behind all the so called babas. Just 2 days after Amma bhagwans news there was another sex scandal of Nityanand Swami howering all the news channels. The problem here is; when there is some hot news being telecasted in any news channels almost all the other competitive channels also get into the same race either telecasting the same news in a different way or they get behind all the babas who ever existed and keep rolling news about the same. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I have not found anything different in any news channel. None thinks out of the box and rarely solutions are offered. That is the biggest problem. Everybody is so much immersed into analyzing the current situation but very rarely the same interest is applied in unleashing the solutions.</span>me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-45949406643202694362010-02-03T04:00:00.001-05:002010-02-03T04:01:56.178-05:00Runn<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Runn Review</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I’ve been dying to watch a movie for a long time now and watching a movie like “Runn” surely subsided my movie thirst for now. Another nice movie by RamGopal Varma. With Amitabh and Ritesh conveying the quintessential message about media and people who are trying to use it for their own benefit. </span><br />

</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It clearly shows the real urgency of media being unbiased and clean. The role it plays in a democratic country like ours is huge. Media has the power and capacity to revolutionize the society by surfacing the truth. Today the quality of information is being compromised for TRP rating or money. This movie has/can to be a wake-up call for Media on the whole. It is the duty of the Media to sensationalize the priority news rather than focusing on irrelevant issues. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It is also equally important for all institutions to promote quality journalism and to encourage before the study slips into the coffins. South India; considered as the knowledge hub of the country should shift its view point to subject areas other than maths and science and understand the importance of journalism/arts/human sciences. Today you find that every second person there is an engineer/doctor here. The mentality of the society has changes to an extent where it is presumed to be an offence if a student picks up subjects other than Maths or science as his/her major. This attitude has to change. And print media has to take up this challenge to bring out the best in other subject areas too. </span><br />

Some time we take few really bold steps in life where we think that good or bad.. lets do it. I wonder how many people would be prepared for the bad in those situations. Never did I give a thought about it coz never did a situation like that arrive before, but now I feel that though I have jumped into a couple of things very boldly and I was never prepared for the bad that could ever happen. Deep down somewhere buried, I knew that things can sometimes go wrong, but not once did I plan for it. Lol, no one really plans for it though. <br />And now what??? Which path do I take?<br /><br />All directions seem to be almost the same…. Tough, tedious, full of twists and turns..And also I don’t find a path which might have a near parallel path to it. <br />Now I realize that I’m lost…me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-39410368543135494962009-10-02T08:31:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.736-05:00An idea can change everythingFace book with its new farming game is rocking the chart lists. A wonderful idea to keep people online. With the privilege, that each one can get back with their own convenience. The age old concept of trying to take people back to farming and helping them leave the city life is another lovely idea. Each and every aspect that has been designed has been so carefully thought and clearly coded. Zynga which has been the backbone for this game has announced its greater success after the launch of FarmVillie on June 19th 2009. Data shows that it has been adding 1 million new users every week and at any given time there are almost 11 million users who are online.<br /><br />Now I have nothing more to say than just wowwwwwww…..<br />I knew this game for a long time. I was not an active visitor on face book before I started playing this game. I heard about farmvilli from every one. Whoso ever I talk, tell me about this application. Suggest that I should give it a try. Initially I thought it’s just a game, and I wondered how people are spending so many hours just for that game. It really surprised me. The most interesting thing that once happened to me was when I saw my friend get up early in the morning at 5’o clock to harvest his strawberry farms. I was surprised. a person who never even bothered to get up so early whatsoever. Got up just to harvest his crop… wofff….<br /><br />And then I thought I should give it a try. Finally I started Farming and I don’t know how/why/what… I started liking it.<br /><br />I appreciate all the effort that went into the designing. The credit goes to Mark Skaggs and his team. I admit it has definitely broken every expected rule or social gaming. The idea itself is amazing. Who thinks about taking us back to farming at this time. Definitely no one. And every minute aspect of helping your neighbours. Calculating what you have to harvest to get benefits. Prioritizing what you want in your farm. Everything is awesome…<br /><br />I'm loving it!!!me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-50161429762105537152009-09-19T02:44:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.751-05:00.

The mixed feeling of pain- of leaving my loved ones back home, happiness- that finally I am on my way to achieve what I have always dreamt for, excitement- of travelling new places, meeting new people. Everything looked so perfect. School time was such fun. Made some wonderful memories together with friends. Though it’s not always good that I had experienced.. those lil fights, those patch ups.. those long walks and those never ending talk. I enjoyed every moment of it.<br /><br />And then came this damn recession, forced me onto the longest break in my career, and to my happiness. Everything changed. Tension piled up, always a question of what next, what could be the alternative.. Never did I so much incline towards destiny, that in this one year after school I started believing in it. Kept trying in all possible ways.. but looks like the future holds something else.. Something more beautiful… something I have never ever imagined for myself…<br /><br />Two years have so passed leaving some bitter experiences, teaching me a couple of things in the hard way, giving me so much of time to know myself even better… desperately awaiting to watch what the future holds for me…me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-74208210285428470742009-08-14T23:38:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.815-05:00Proud to be an INDIAN… now and alwaysCelebrating our 62nd year of Independence..<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bRgecyUINgI&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bRgecyUINgI&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />I raise all high to salute to my mother land. This day I would like to pay my due respect for all the greatest of the great freedom fighters who have sacrificed their lives to get us this day. <br /><br />Though INDIA is still being treated as a developing nation, it has definitely made its mark in the world history. Information Technology, Scientific research, Aviation, Defense, Arts.. You name it and we have our presence in it. Whatever people call us, we Indians have made a mark for ourselves. I am so proud to represent myself an INDIAN. <br /><br />Reminiscence of the good old bygone days when I used to get all excited to put the paper flag onto my shoulder, with that white sports uniform and keep wishing every one “ Happy Independence Day”. It was an age when I didn’t know if the excitement was because I would be given free candy at school or was it because of the parade that I always liked to watch or because it was one off-study day at school. But whatever it was, it was just fabulous. The sight of everyone raising high for the National anthem gives me that very nice and proud feeling (Gets me those goose bumps ) The song made me so thrilled and charged as ever. <br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/r3TtgYuaVFk&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/r3TtgYuaVFk&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />The Celebration continues..me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-71812834368262497212009-08-08T12:51:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.823-05:00garmagaram chai..<br />heavy rain slashing my patio door..<br />my all time fav music..<br /><br />Lov n it man!!!me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-67658564658407605622009-07-31T14:47:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.832-05:00it means so much to meIt’s been some time now that I found myself grounded in that big deep chasm from where I found no ray of hope. Every time that I tried to find some way out, I found double the force that was pulling me more deep into it. For some time I completely lost all my power and all that strength that made me take everything so positively and so cheerfully. A sense of losing, a feeling of being defeated ruthlessly crept into my heart making it all week. And suddenly the voice that has been all the way silent spoke to me. Not about his stupid pranks or his careless trial. Nor about his muses or rants but reminded me of the lost me. Reminded me about the one that lost herself to some artificialities and hid herself far from what she really is. He made me realize what is it, which was always there with me for 23 years and then suddenly was lost somewhere. He recouped my lost potential with his one pull. Those little hands which I once held when he was about to fall, held mine when I needed them the most. The lil brother to whom I taught how to eat and how to play today taught me how to get back to myself. Thanks bro!!! Thanks for being for me. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHtTg5Iy3_554ujjlZ2jzQ9FFUVq_scx62G4e7puYK79_QuanhtCse0jkeiZmfXNITr45mbCICq15Sch18DYd4AZtdQKD7-FHmR0FOgXx80wBHy9aHU-FgcmBKEy0tdMUrFOX-n0d-xayg/s1600-h/3638369_8e0168592a.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHtTg5Iy3_554ujjlZ2jzQ9FFUVq_scx62G4e7puYK79_QuanhtCse0jkeiZmfXNITr45mbCICq15Sch18DYd4AZtdQKD7-FHmR0FOgXx80wBHy9aHU-FgcmBKEy0tdMUrFOX-n0d-xayg/s320/3638369_8e0168592a.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364718365461222690" /></a><br /><br />P.S your flying kiss rode all the way to your sister :)me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-10403335387470847542009-07-30T15:25:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.840-05:00Our Earth<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYJi68Gzvt6gvbaPZKTn_se0vATesfXYuz9GSckg98z04mSAWBDeAAVn8QmSBk4N3M5a0I7eRQYZA-UTM8OQCLrxTDkjoq9E9kD0cZyXG591ix4hs06c73eVd05al85g-MjGVRzdXke8NE/s1600-h/HD_80_HD8000_planet_earth_seascapeLg.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 111px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYJi68Gzvt6gvbaPZKTn_se0vATesfXYuz9GSckg98z04mSAWBDeAAVn8QmSBk4N3M5a0I7eRQYZA-UTM8OQCLrxTDkjoq9E9kD0cZyXG591ix4hs06c73eVd05al85g-MjGVRzdXke8NE/s200/HD_80_HD8000_planet_earth_seascapeLg.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364337778861451522" /></a><br />The planet is going to peril. I want to change it. And I know there are many who want to do their share of effort for this. Let’s get to discuss a couple of ways as to how we can all do that together.<br /><br />1. The first important issue is, one has to understand the impact of the choices that we take. Make wise choices. Reduce the consumption of earth’s resources like... choosing goods with less packaging. Think about the products entire life cycle from manufacturing to the disposal. Replace your non-renewable resources with the renewable once like the solar and wind. Travel mindfully, cut down on your greenhouse gas emissions. Think in a more ecologically friendly way use train and local means more. I<br />Know it’s easy to say but it takes a lot to commitment to get to work. But anything and everything is possible<br /><br />2. Make your homes healthy and more efficient going green:<br />• Keep a watch on the home illumination. Replace your light bulbs as they burn out with compact fluorescent models. <br />• Use kitchen and bathroom ventilating fans as little as possible to avoid sending too much heated or cooled air out of the house. <br />• Check the setting on your water heater isn't overheating your water. <br />• Next major saving should be with the water. Its earth’s most precious resource. Using as little of it as possible not only reduces the energy needed to transport the water from its source, process it, and send it along the pipes to people, but it helps to ensure that there's enough to go around. Fix the leaking faucets around the home right away. Use as little water as possible when cooking. Use water wisely when you are washing the dishes. In general, a shower uses little than filling up the container. Whether you prefer showers or baths keep water conservation in mind and limit the amount of water you use. <br />• Practice green cleaning: use baking soda, vinegar, and lime, Borax etc., as cleaning solutions to many household issues than powerful chemicals.<br /><br />3. Minimize your trash and de-clutter your life:<br />• For many people, if trash is "out of sight, it is out of mind" as soon as it leaves their home. But that’s not the end of trash’s journey. It’s just the beginning. For every item you throw out, there's hidden waste- the raw materials that went into its production and the resources such as water and energy that fueled the process, from raw materials to finished goods to land fill. And much of that energy comes from non renewable sources. The main idea here is to reduce your trash so much that you produce no waste at all. It’s far more practical and achievable way with all the recycling and packaging practices that are catching up with today’s "Green" culture.<br />A few tips onto how to go about this<br />• Buy less. Identify the difference between what you "Need" and what you "Want"<br />• Be mindful of packaging. Buy fresh food that doesn’t come prepackaged. Avoid individually packaged items. Take your own shopping bag; reduce the usage of plastic bags. Opt for items in glass or other recyclable containers instead of plastic containers that can’t be recycled. <br />• Lengthening the life of your processions: try to opt of processions that you can handle longer. That way you would be helping with a lot of waste reduction and avoid buying new items and getting rid of the old once and also save some money. <br />• Recycle as many products as you can. Try to identify sources in your community where there are recycle hubs and use them. You can also turn your garbage into someone else’s gold by just donating them to the needy. Offer your used goods to another person reduce waste and fits in with the idea of reusing as much as possible. <br />• Disposing of electronic goods: electronics have become an important part of our lifestyle. And they have also become more prominent contributions of our homes waste. If you want to get rid of your old electronics just find an electronic recycler near to you. Or if you want to get rid of your old computer and TV don’t trash it. Donate it for reuse by facilities like charity schools or social organizations. Disposing your old vehicle. Don’t throw it into junk yards. It can be reused sometimes or can be donated. You can sometimes get a tax benefit if you donate things to charity organizations [:)]<br /><br />4. Make more green diet decisions:<br />Be selective about where your food comes from. Go for locally produced food stuff. This way you would save all the green house gas emission form the transportation of the foods from distant places. <br />Go for the local farmers market which would be open just a couple of times a week but which would cater to buying fresh local and organic food. <br /><br /><br />These are all small tips, in all the various ways we can save the environment. These small issues can be a great contribution to the society. <br /><br />And I feel all this education has to be done specifically at the grass root level. Little school children have to be educated with high priority about these issues. That is an age when, whatever is stressed will remain forever. We have to involve children in the green drive activates that the school undertakes. Teach them the effects of whatever we do. Such things don’t happen in a jiffy. All this is going to take some time. Persistent effort and working dedicatedly will definitely bring a change. <br /><br />I would appreciate the discussion of more solutions to the issues. Pour your thought and bring in more issues to light.me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-52762544398819860802009-07-20T00:53:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.848-05:00Opportunity..use itIt is true that many times people fail to achieve something for lack of opportunity. But lucky are those who get an opportunity to prove their talent, hard work and the best they have in themselves. One such opportunity being provided, are by the various Talent Shows. Talent shows in Music, Dance, Art and whatever. It is really appreciable that the basic platform is being created for and by people to get the best in their respective field (thought it’s a win-win for both of them lol). <br /><br />All this came to my mind when i was watching the SA RE GA MA PA lil Champs. What a show!!! Little kids all below 15 yrs of age with such lovely voices. And many among them are from such small villages of our country that If not for this show I guess it would have been real tough for them to make a mark for themselves so easily at that age. And the best part is the mentoring that all those little kids are being offered. Those kids are in such a tender age that they learn things so quick and hold it with them for a long time, wherein the need for a right guide, right guru is needed. Abhijeet and Alka Yagnikar are doing a great job.<br />A win-win show where everyone is getting their share of profit. More of such shows have to be conducted, not just in the music and dance arena but educational too. To bring the best in each subject by the best. <br /><br />I would love to share the <a href="http://www.getentertained.net/site/Home/tabid/36/forumid/54/scope/threads/Default.aspx">show links </a>with every oneme maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-47052663413133355952009-07-10T15:53:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.862-05:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qn7-62amJpY/SljjnYshCoI/AAAAAAAAJrc/cJfz_xlmdv4/s1600-h/life_Page_1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qn7-62amJpY/SljjnYshCoI/AAAAAAAAJrc/cJfz_xlmdv4/s400/life_Page_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357282022540774018" /></a>me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-24459155093294718682009-07-10T14:03:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.871-05:00Google Chrome Operating SystemI was just trying to jot down all the uses a computer can offer without an internet connection. And it turned out to be such a small list, unless some specified software was being used for some very specific purpose. And when you use internet the list goes endless. This clearly demarcates the vast use an internet connection can offer. And when I talk about internet the first and foremost thing that pops up into my mind is GOOGLE. It has revolutionized the way internet access is done. Through the years it has added so many features to itself that it’s no more just a search engine. With its new venture <strong>Google Chrome Operating systems </strong>I guess its gona add another feather to its cap. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFLjsprGHDwCNe3Ljz7wV8UOEew__xaduWmZDpFsNWfjMqKL_JzB7qngvIud5sMukM5LrD-i_mthUPlE5p7GR-q91tfiyX83XD2YGvgG_MDsUxsGwRWpYfuhv4-RAXSfNk8BLUnX_8RsbP/s1600-h/google+chrome.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFLjsprGHDwCNe3Ljz7wV8UOEew__xaduWmZDpFsNWfjMqKL_JzB7qngvIud5sMukM5LrD-i_mthUPlE5p7GR-q91tfiyX83XD2YGvgG_MDsUxsGwRWpYfuhv4-RAXSfNk8BLUnX_8RsbP/s200/google+chrome.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356894848618879858" /></a><br /><br />Chrome OS would be designed using the Linux Open Source and is being initially targeted at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netbook">Netbooks</a>. It should be all set for a grand release by the second half of 2010. Its main features would be speed, simplicity and security. The user interface would be made minimal to stay out of our way, and most of the user experience takes place on the web. Just as the Google Chrome browser, they are completely redesigning the underlying security architecture of the OS so that we users will not have to deal with viruses, malware and other security updates. <br /><br />But the clear part here is Google has literally dropped a nuclear bomb on its chief rival, Microsoft. The sales of Netbooks have increased tremendously these days and there are lots of them that are running on Windows XP. Windows being a very old one which has been initially built for Pentium 3s and 4s. The new Chrome OS would be capable of both <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_architecture ">x86 architecture </a>and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_chips ">ARM chips </a>and will be working with multiple OEMs to increase the number of netbooks to an even greater number. Another important issue here is, just as the browser the Operating system will also be open- sourced. But is there any chance of Microsoft open-sourcing its windows?? <br /><br />After the release of Chrome OS what about Android? (The Mobile Operating System running on Linux, developed by Google). Google does agree of some overlap between the two, but the basic difference remains that Android cannot be run on x86 architecture, where as Chrome would. And another difference that Chrome wants to emphasize is including apps that are not standard browser based apps. <br /><br />Google plans for this release very soon. No wonder if it drops the same time, when Microsoft is out with its wildcard <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7">Windows 7</a>me maself and ihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12719375897017489629noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-48801621717903271122009-07-09T15:21:00.000-04:002010-02-01T05:04:00.879-05:00music<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKNzvMpK4ajORO-l2q6SU-XumeoCTYkbV1EKBxwIF3YUY4Lgamictd0OEGIj9OnQ4Z-rDE9nxopFA8u5NM1_0pwwbViBCWUSMmKCuL3FtRFJBfeOVirvmJWvRq_yAmBzd7lTPc-i9F4-8j/s1600-h/BWnotes.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKNzvMpK4ajORO-l2q6SU-XumeoCTYkbV1EKBxwIF3YUY4Lgamictd0OEGIj9OnQ4Z-rDE9nxopFA8u5NM1_0pwwbViBCWUSMmKCuL3FtRFJBfeOVirvmJWvRq_yAmBzd7lTPc-i9F4-8j/s320/BWnotes.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356543426490492594" /></a><br />When the world around me seems like hell, when everything I try works out to be a complete disaster the only medicine that can calm all my senses and make my brain work is some good music. What a gift we found for our self. Not just trouble or pain, any situation and music can change the way u feel. It’s not just something that I am saying here. But its proven science that we are hardwired to interpret and react to a piece of music. You get happier when you listen to good music… and when we are dull we tend to listen to the slow music where we try to find peace with it. <br /><br />My dad gets completely freaked up when he finds me reading a book with the music on. It’s as if I am committing the greatest sin of my life.. lol. But I try hard to make him understand that it’s scientifically proved that music will enhance the learning skill. The only thing that separates a genius from an average person is his learning ability, which can be improved with music. People learn through music and their minds grow faster when it is implemented in the right way.
