Spirograph! Fun with graphs!

2010-05-26T19:45:00.001-07:00

Here is a link to an online Spirograph application developed by me. As a kid I had so much fun playing with this toy. I was always amazed at the patterns and I would fill up any plain paper I could get my hands on! I hope you enjoy it! Do let me know!

HDFC - House Loans

2007-06-18T12:53:00.000-07:00

I visited HDFC house loan branch today morning and I was surprised to note that these guys are charging for every phone call that they make to you and every letter that gets posted to you!!!!I was disappointed to note that these guys will not call up to inform when your EMI cheques get exhausted. This normally leads to an interest payable by you to the tune of ~INR 1000/- per month.The manager at

Once again I am lashing out on Bangalore traffic … nothing new as far as the traffic and road conditions are concerned, but some more observations I found interesting enough to grab some space on my blog.I just returned home from office on my ducky Yamaha RX-135.This is one bike I always recommend to any aspiring buyer. If you are not campaigning for mileage and want to have an adrenaline rush

My cheese has moved!

Hiiiiii !!!!Filling in my blog after a REALLY long pause! It feels good :-)Life is such a complex maze of events that nobody can ever fathom.I have faced certain situations during the last six months that have forced me to start thinking about what life is and why it is like an amalgamation of smiles and frowns.Definitely “Life is not a bed of roses” but it is also not a “Bed of thorns”.Around

Hulchul

2005-01-06T11:31:00.000-08:00

After a long time I am visitng my dormant blog. I wonder if bloggers come to see if any I made any 'Hulchul'. I didn't get time to a great extent and also true I had little to reflect on the 'Hulchul' happening around my life. Latest updates -Parents are here for a whole Month :-) -Won a "Feather In My Cap Encore Award" for an out standing contribution in my Project :-) Hurray -

Isn't it a wonder

2004-09-12T22:11:00.000-07:00

Isn’t it a wonder? Finally I have some time today to spurt on my blog :) I have been thinking, while my blog was quiet, waiting for me to fill in. It has been long, last post was on Monday, August 23, 2004 … whew that’s a really long break from blogging. Anyways, I am back and blogging :). As a kid I was very curious and always playing the “why and how” game that I guess every one does. In the

Commuting Comfortably

2004-08-22T20:04:00.000-07:00

I come to office by the shuttle bus service provided by my company. It’s a small 14 seated, Tempo Traveler kind of vehicle. It is normally a very short journey. It takes around 20 minutes to reach office. It has been happening recently, by chance, that I am having the pleasure of occupying a seat next to a gentleman in his 40s, I guess. In effect I am the victim of this whole thing and

Proud to be an Indian?

2004-08-19T20:39:00.000-07:00

Proud to be an Indian? Think it all over again … don’t confuse between patriotism and pride!!!! Patriotism: Love of country and willingness to sacrifice for it Pride: Satisfaction with your (or another's) achievements India has hugely failed as far as growth and development efforts are concerned! It’s a shame that even after 57 Years of independence India is not a developed nation! Can there

Consumerism @ India

2004-08-09T23:26:00.000-07:00

Consumerism: “A movement advocating greater protection of the interests of consumers.” In Indian context the word doesn’t carry much weight. The typical attitude of an Indian shopkeeper is like, once he gets the money whatever happens to the buyer he gives a damn. Let the consumer suffer whatever he is destined for. There have been several incidents where such an attitude has been consistently

Muskuraiye ki aap Lucknow mein hain

2004-08-03T21:43:00.000-07:00

Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh, is a great place. It has some charisma inherent in its culture and in the way people live their life. The "Tehzeeb" of Lucknow and the famous words from Lucknow "Pehle Aap!" are known to everyone. In essence it reflects the gentle and suave ways of people who stay there. A great joke goes around about “Pehle Aap” phenomenon in Lucknow: “A Begum in Lucknow

Q: Why do mosquitoes always buzz in your ears? A: For the simple reason that you cannot hear, except from your ears!

From 'Julie-t' to 'Julie'

2004-08-02T02:41:00.000-07:00

Last weekend I saw the much talked about movie “Julie”. A lot has been said all over the media space about the movie and the sex-sational scenes that Neha Dhupia has dared. The words going around, about the movie, are not far from credible. It definitely has what it takes to call the movie X-Rated. The steaming scenes executed by Miss Dhupia in all but clothes are as good as a love scene in a

Hello !

2004-07-26T22:00:00.000-07:00

“Hello” is a very powerful word of expression and people seldom realize its value. Let us get on to its etymology first. hello - 1883, alt. of hallo (1840), itself an alt. of holla, hollo, a shout to attract attention, first recorded 1588. Perhaps from holla! "stop, cease." Popularity as a greeting coincides with use of the telephone, where it won out over Alexander Graham Bell's suggestion,

Life is about living it!

2004-07-26T06:18:00.000-07:00

Life is about living it! Just look at how the time, you have at your disposal, in your life span flies away and you never realize it. One third of life is gone sleeping, half of it is gone working away from your family. What remains is a mere fraction of your life that you can spend with your loved ones! These are not exaggerations! Just reflect upon it and you will concur on the similar figures

Blog and Colors

2004-07-21T06:42:00.000-07:00

A passing thought .... Just in Time ! Blog is like a water color balloon used in "Holi" festival in India! Every one blogs with "colors" that the life has bestowed upon them! Holi: The religious significance of the festival of Holi is to mark the burning of self - conceit, anger, selfishness, greed, lust, hatred, ego and pardoning or forgetting any grievances against any one and to restart

You Vs You

2004-07-19T21:00:00.000-07:00

It’s hard to understand life, as you live it. It’s only when you take time out from you busy schedule that you start reflecting upon what is going on. Many times when things are not going such as to make you happy, one starts feeling low on morale and starts carping and finding faults with what others are up to. These are clear signs of frustration and must be handled with utmost care and

Roads revisited !

2004-07-16T03:00:00.000-07:00

Today morning a colleague, Girish, met with an accident. He is severely bruised in his arms and knees. Fortunately he wore a helmet today and was very near to Malaya Hospital, so first aid could be provided in time. It is a very common observation that people commute to office for almost 20-25 kms, one way, on their two wheelers, driving almost one hour to reach the workplace. Every day the

Black Hole

2004-07-15T23:05:00.000-07:00

Black Hole, a region of space resulting from the collapse of a star and has extremely high gravitational field is called a “Black Hole”. The term is coined with support from theories that suggest that nothing comes out of the super massive cosmos entity. It is postulated that even light doesn’t come out of it, you see only what is reflected when the light strikes and object, hence the term “Black

Its been a day full of "blog-ploring"[ex-ploring] in to the myriad blogs on the i-net. Read a lot and learned a lot... Found some really colourful ones and some really informative ones and not to forget the lovely ones and the insightful ones... Also discovered many sites that exist other than http://www.blogger.com, but I think this one is really cool, lets you talk more with less of props to

Just in time, and off the events in chronological order, in my blog! This blog "Just in time" is inspired by "Confusing Musings", a blog created by one of my dear friends Manish Chauhan, currently located in Pune. Find out more about him and his "Confusing Musings" here. This being a very subtle and effective media, I intend to update this blog religiously unless Time plays otherwise. So keep

NASA - Cassini-Huygens: Close Encounter with Saturn

2004-07-14T23:27:00.000-07:00

NASA - Cassini-Huygens: Close Encounter with Saturn The quest for the unknown has taken man made automaton "Cassini" to the outer limits of our solar system. This reach may seem like a grain of sand when compared to the Brobdingnagian nature of the space-time continuum, it definitely reflects the understanding that the Homo sapiens have developed, towards the laws of nature that have ever since
