It could be only me but it took some time for me to realize what the logo of Carrefour (supermarket chain) meant - one big white "C".

Read this and check this out. It seems that the Internet is gradually opening doors to a not-so-entirely new room - watching TV. A few of the tasks everyone ever does daily on the Internet can be generalized into a flexible list of topics like email, news, chat, up/down-load, messaging, blog, infoseek, etc, but... how about watching daily videos? Some sites like Atomfilms , Youtube and Break have been on the scene for some time now, relaying streaming video transfer around the globe, depending upon user requests. And I can say for sure, that sites like these are great resource for budding Peter Jacksons and Clint Eastwoods, where users can post or watch videos. But for dialup users like me - this is a weep-weep scenario because of the " please-wait -time" during buffering. Clearly, I remember the day when I was seven or maybe eight and an uncle used to work with a television-like white screen, attached to yet another white box that displayed glowing numbers and he used t...

Sometimes there's nothing you feel like doing online. Today was one of those times and then I quickly found myself generating the following alia ses here , soft of fun! This might be particularly useful for wasting-bandwidth.

Do you know how to pronounce "Linux'? Well, why not hear from the creator himself? http://www.paul.sladen.org/pronunciation/ Apparently it seems that Linux was derived from two words [Linus + Minix] - the former one being the name of the creator Linus Torvalds and the latter one, an operating system developed by Andrew Stuart Tanenbaum.

It was some years back [1997], we were in a science institute with biology major. While most of our time expected to be on studies, we were playing around with one quite popular piece of software called HammerHead Rhythm Station. It was quite a powerful program capable of engrossing us into hours and hours of practice, with its handy design and beautiful output. Yes, it's all about sound - HH RS produced drum beats, snares, etc. in a progressive manner so that the final output was a piece of musical loop. Well, we played with it for a while and then lost the interest - as usual. Then it was dumped in some corner of a cd-R and forgotten for good. Then in 2003, I was engaged in a sort of expo cum market, where I was required to produce a piece of music for the inaugration. I'm not a musician or anything close to it, but somebody wanted me for the job just because I loved to play with sound all the time with whatever tools I could manage. At that time I used Cooledit 2.0 to do som...

I'm supposed to be writing on this page in an updated fashion - i.e. continue writing/uploading my blog entries in the future. Or at least I hope so. By the way, did I tell you that I am the same person who wrote just one single entry in more than 365 days? As far as the philosophy goes, "Whenever I have attempted to promise myself to do something, I've almost always not done it", which was the case with my previous blog. Now, one of the reasons that I want to continue this page is that I love this blog site - it is lite, has a number of features that "msn space" lacks. Besides, msn space downloads too slowly for dial up users like me and also it has a number of nakharas that a modest blog site need not have.

If I remember correctly from my seventh grade history book, then Picasso is the name of a painter. Was he Italian? No no, he must have been Spanish, or was he Dutch? Still doubtful, but he was a painter, an artist, who had chosen to make creative expressions through paintings - this much is sure. And now Pica sa, which is for images and visual expressions, something closely related to Picasso - even the name is quite similar. Did you know that Picasa was originally written by a someone else? Only later did Google buy it and skin it and added some functionalities, finally naming it into Picasa. Picasa can run, Picasa can dance, Picasa can sing all sorts of image extensions - what more do you want from a piece of software? Don't believe it? Well, it's your choice, but man, if you're using Windows then you're definitely missing something. ...what? price? It's free
