For our first anniversary we decided to go on a planned but unplanned tour of Goa. Planned because we applied for leaves unplanned because nothing else was fix, even the bus tickets were booked a day earlier! Day 1 - Palolem Beach: We reached Goa and decided to get down at Madgaon (margoa) instead of regular Mapsa or Panji. Madgaon is generally the last stop for Pune - Goa

Today I got a surprise, a WP7 update! I did not expect mango updates so soon. So to get more information I visited Microsoft's official web-page for windows phone updates and found it is not mango but a small yet critical security update, I doubt if we can taste the mango this summer as it is the biggest WP7 update announced till date, thus should take more time. The important thing about the

While I am in love with my HTC HD 7 Windows Phone 7, and the updates went buttery smooth, there is a pain point that might not go well with many, ‘The Market Place (App Store) is not yet functional for India’. I will tell you a work around for this in this post. Before buying the phone, I had done my research and was sure that app store will work properly. Following links suggests that: http://

This was something I was most worried about when I decided to buy WP7. Will my phone get updates in India? I was worried because the WP7 ecosystem is still growing and no updates means missing out on some necessary and some existing features. The good news is, yes it does,I could update my HTC HD7 without any hassles, I just connected it to Zune on my PC initiated update, I got both WP7: 1.

I like Windows Phone 7 (WP7) for its amazing interface and features, it is the most eye-catching mobile operating systems I have ever seen, it is a visually pleasing experience.I have watched countless videos and read as many articles about it (both positive and negative). I am already a fan of it! I can't wait to put my hands on my HTC HD7 that is bought by Yuvraj for me in US. So I thought it

Sangamwadi is on my way to office, once the bridge is crossed, looking at the right hand side I always used to wonder how the place would look in the morning! River and dense trees! So, on one fine day I woke up early in the morning, around 5 am and reached to Mula river near Sangamwadi, just to click some good snaps of rising sun over the river bank, and I got more than that :-) The

Again, yesterday Sachin Tendulkar scored a ton and India lost the game. A few days back, he scored hundred against England and India could not win. But remember 2003 world cup, in a big match against Pakistan, Master Blaster got out on 98 and India won! Does this clearly indicate Sachin’s ton is unlucky for team India? I think the human memory is designed to remember all the wrong things more

"You're either in a crisis, coming out of a crisis, or about to go into a crisis. But, it all works out in the end. If it hasn't worked out yet, then it's not the end." Got this from here :)

On a boring Sunday morning when the time was crawling its way towards 10 am, Avani and I decided to do something about it. I had already applied a leave for Monday (with no particular plan in mind). We thought Harihareshwar can be a good option, I called Hrishi to check if he (along with his better-half) is available, he was not, but he gave me the idea to take this route to Kashid beach. If

Watched 7 khoon maaf last night. The movie is one time watch, certainly not from the same class of  Maqbools and Omkaras of Vishal Bharadwaj however, it is not as bad as rediff review suggests. When one watches the movie one has to keep guessing who was the the 7th victim of Priyanka Chopra. Even in the recap song only the six kills were shown. A lot of people think it was the maid Usha

Recently, I wanted to edit a pdf that was password protected. For this I wanted to convert the pdf to word. I tried to use the online pdf to word converters, most of them does not support conversion of password protected pdfs. Only one of them supports conversion of secured pdfs, that is freepdfconvert. However when I used this feature it denied conversion because the pdf was password protected,

Just few days ago I checked the status of this road on google maps and to my surprise it was nearing completion. I was happy for both google maps updates and the construction status of the road  :) Today morning I used the much awaited Sangamwadi - Shadal Baba Dargah road for the first time. Using this road one can skip Sangamwadi goan and Bombay Sappers to reach Yerwada and Airport. This

On occasion of Decos India completing 10 years, company arranged a trip, and what could be a better place than Goa! On Mar 12 we all left Pune around 11 pm in two Bercedes Benz and one Volvo. In Goa we had a two night stay at Candolim beach Hotel Fortune. Hotel is good, food is okay, I recommend heavy breakfast for veggies rather than expecting too much from buffet lunch , Hotel has its own spa,

If you are still in stone age and using Microsoft Office without Office Tabs then, office tabs is an office add-on developed by some smart Chinese programmers. Well that made me believe that 'smart' can actually go with 'Chinese' stuff ;-). This is something that would make Microsoft guys look stupid! How can they keep the users away for something like this for so many years! (something

I had a perfect start for year 2010 on Murud beach of Konkan :)  Weather was awesome as this is ideal time to visit beaches… We 8 friends were out there for the sole purpose of having a blast... Evening time was lovely... And the sunset was awesome... Crowd was there, but who cares when you are with 7 old friends, and actually crowd was much lesser than Baga and Calangute
