We must be reading the same stuff. I've gone through the first two out of three on your list! Genetics must have our brain waves aligning.

Comment on From Ambedkar statue take right, aur yahan se left by Avinash

Great post, @Chris.

We would like to let the world know that we (RouteGuru) pioneered this innovation back in 2007 (http://www.pluggd.in/product-reviews/routeguru-te...

Please visit http://RouteGuru.com for a technology demonstration (live for Delhi area).

We use Google Maps API to (and only to) display our route on a graphical map.

We also claim that our landmark directions technology is better than Google's. Compare for yourself for any pair of locations in Delhi-NCR.

But thanks to Google, global markets are opening up to this age-old concept now. Indeed, we have started receiving interest in our technology from markets that were foreign to us till now.

Cheers,

Comment on DRM disappears, my money quickly follows by Chris Coldewey

Burning and re-ripping was a serious pain, AND you lose audio quality
when you convert to a .wav and then reconvert to .mp3. I am curious to
see who can crack the code first on all-you-can-eat always-on
streaming service – that would be a similar quality-of-life
improvement like the removal of DRM. I wish Apple had bought Spotify
instead of LaLa — hope they will do something great with it though.

I have to agree – DRM-free has been a blessing. I was always too lazy to look elsewhere, so purchased quite a bit of DRM music through iTunes. I would download, burn a CD, erase it from my iTunes and then load it from the CD in order to circumvent the DRM – but that was a pain. And as you pointed out, most of my friends would not go to that effort, so I could never play their files.

Thanks for bringing back the memories…although I don't remember it being as crazy as it sounds in the article. I remember a pretty intimate affair with moshing etc, but I don't remember the crowds in the parking lot that weren't allowed in, etc. I guess we did get there at the right time, cause we were right there in the heart of it while they rocked and we moshed.
