Hi All

We have moved to a new host Hostbig.com

I am going to continue with the long lost blog once again . This time it will be a little different. We’ll see a collection of photos clicked by me on this blog here.

I decided to put some time and money into photography, which has always been my hobby. I started as a kid with a small Halina film camera, and ever since then I have always been the one behind the camera.

A my first personal camera, I did not want to go for a mere point and shoot one. Of course they take nice snaps, but I wanted to learn, and have a little flexibility. DSLRs are obviously awesome and the professional cameras, but i did not have the kind of budget to buy a decent DSLR camera (the one I liked was for $1200).

So I looked for a nice bridge camera, and found Fujifilm FinePix S2950

It is a really nice camera, and truly value for the money. You can get in online for about INR 9,000-10,000 and from the stores you’ll get it for INR9,999+. The camera offers a lot of options, and basic features of a semi-pro camera, that will help you learn how to use manual controls. You can find more if you google for it.

As i needed help I found this group on Flickr of people using this camera, and they are really doing wonders. Let’s hope I can learn to do the same with it.

So we are going to see what the camera does for me, or rather what I do with it.

For more, keep coming back.

If you are facing any problem related to folder options or show/hide hidden folders i.e. You changed the “Show hidden files and folders” but the hidden files are still not coming. And when you check the folder options again it has gotten reverted back.

To resolve goto this link , download the Registry file and merge it to your registry (just double click the file you have downloads)

Hi All

My apologies, i have not been able to keep my promise of keeping the blog updated. I have been too preoccupied with my work, that I could not give attention to this.

Currently working on a Telecom project, as a Siebel Administrator and Associate, busy working for long and odd hours.

Learning new stuff each day, will post more about my “Adventures in Mumbai” very soon.

Till then, take care, play safe!!

Hi all
I am in Mumbai now
will be continuing with the blog as soon as I can.

The moving process is over now. Took lesser time than I anticipated.
Thanks to the export/import feature of WordPress, and numerous tutorials on the web, that tell us how to move your site and all permalinks without losing visitors (and to some extent the PR)
I am gonna start posting stuff soon.

The guys at Fox always know what they’re doing or they turn any lousy work of the past into something great when they have to.

Just when you thought Prison Break season 4 was not going anywhere with, very little action and seemingly dumb new characters, and almost stagnant story, they have put a sharp turn into it by revealing that Michael and Lincoln are not brothers

Whats more shocking is that the truth comes out of the mouth of the bitchy mother Chrisitina who is now playing the central vamp on the show.

She has played it well in these 3 episodes, and i really hate her character, specially after she put Linc and Mikey in the setup at the end

With T-Bag taking another step out, going on the General’s side, the show is bound to get better in the coming episodes. Whats interesting is the show has only 3 more episodes to go now, so there’s going to be a lot of such shocks coming.

These days I am keeping track of Prison Break, Lost, House M.D. and  Sarah Connor Chronicles, and i must say that right now I am waiting for the next episode of PB more than anything

Wish a nice weekend to all of you

Happy Brother’s & Sister’s day to all of you.
I have a younger brother and i never realised the importance of having one untill he left for a far city for his engineering.
Now i miss him and realise how he has been a buddy to me.

Here’s something i created to wish him on this day.
(was in a rush to make it to the office )

i hope you all take this opportunity to give some importance to your siblings.

P.S.: I used ImageShack to make this slideshow after trying about 7 other image sharing and slideshow maker sites and scripts.
my word is that imageshack is the simplest way to do it and does not distort or disfigure your slideshow by adding an unwanted logo or bar to it.

Just found this picture making rounds over the web.
the picture is so unbelievable that i almost feel its altered.
Well technically it isnt.
I find it hard to believe that the bachchans can do that.
I am a fan of Big B, and i don’t think his family could be that naive to do this on camera

checkout for yourself.

The server at my office crashed this week. We had moved all our projects onto it just 2 weeks back. And the worse thing is we had no backups. As it was supposed to be stable and was going to be equipped with a RAID partition soon.
But alas!!
Now we’ll have to do most of the work again right from the start.
So I guess I am going to be even busier in the coming weeks.
But this has taught us a lot, now we’re going to be prepared for the future
