BSNL Unlimited @ 625/month

Pandian — Sat, 09 Aug 2008 18:57:21 +0000

Its been more than three months since my last blog, the reason as i said earlier blog,i.e., I could didn’t find much time spend in internet, and struggling/slogging lots of time to complete the work. Though still the work is not completed, However trying to get the blogging mode. Still not clear of what to write in this blog.

May be I could add the some new(though old, but new for me) BSNL’s Unlimited internet Plan for almost 625/month (this is not exactly correct, as to avail this price, one has to pay 7500/year in one shot to BSNL)
but i.e, quiet a good price. Hoping that it will decrease more.
Moreover, now, applying/registering for Broadband can be done by online / no need to visit any office and hence 24/7 service. the url is here ..

Before sign off, I have to apologies my blog visitors, as all their comments were moderated. I would try to make it available by the next week.

See you tommorrow with wordpress/theme update. hope I would find something more to blog about.

Its a fantastic fantacy movie from imsai arasan fame Chimbudevan. His way of story telling is thrilling at the same time its full humour. To say a particular scene that explains the above line, God (prakash raj ) cautions dubaakkurs that 2100 people to going to die in the next 4 seconds and later, its fun to know that it was 2100 mosquitoes that died.

The chimbudevan’s style of mocking against the big corporates is quite innovative. In this movie the target was moved from coca cola, pepsi to Infosys (as kollaiasys :). Its not only innovative, but also courageous attempt in making fun out of the real life situation prevalent in the society. Hats off to Chimbudevan.

There is lot to blog about the movie, and i became a greatest fan of Chimbudevan. Waiting for his Next movie.

There is another thing to cherish in this blog as this is my first moblog or mobile blog. that makes this blog goes a level up.

Tray It

Pandian — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 14:47:20 +0000

Tray it - Its a one of the tool, i was searching for a long time, finally got it over the last week. Its a free windows tool using which we can mimimize any windows application to system tray.

Normally when I click the minimize button of an application, say for example Eclipse or Toad, it gets minimized to task bar. As I wont be actively using the application, over the time, my taskbar would be loaded with more than ten application. To overcome this issue, If I close the app, instead of minimizing, the next time when I open the app, It will be waste of time (Java based GUIs). So I want the application minimized to system tray instead of task bar, there by minimizing the clutter in task bar. Exactly this is what is done by this application.

So Now on, Just press the Shift key when clicking the minimize button, the app will be minimized to system tray.(you have to download and run it)

Note:- Also, using this you can play hide and seek on the app when somebody(boss) around your computer

Breaking the Silence

Pandian — Sat, 01 Mar 2008 17:10:05 +0000

Generally, a blogger (like me) fails to blog continuously, because one or more of the following Four reasons.

1. There is nothing happened in my life to blog about..( which is impossible.)
2. There happened lots of things and got busy with the things that came up.
3. No internet connection.
4. good bye to blog

For me, Its the second reason that make this blog silent over the last month. Not only that there is slight touch of third reason i.e.I had limited access to internet.

It is good in one way, as always quality work is associated with the efficient usage of limited internet rather than slogging all time in internet.

Over the last month, though I have been to Chennai and Bangalore over the last two week, I could not meet lots of my friends. As I used to say, In Life, “It happens”.

And also, There were lots of events, trips and learnings i have come across that definitely needs blogging. Hope I would blog something better in the next blog other than mere update. Let’s see…

Back to India

Pandian — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 04:58:51 +0000

Its my return to India or Karnataka after a year at uk. I am hoping to see lots of changes in the bengalooru and every place i would be seeing it in the next month. Anyways, let my surprises be surprises. At this point, before flying back to India, I thought of sharing a photo of me where I was flying in air.

The photographic trick here, requires full of trust, faith and devotion in the following sloka.

Jai Hanuman Gyan Gun Sagar, Jai Kapis Tihun lok ujaagar.
Ram Dut Atulit bal Dhaama, Anjani putra Pavan sut naama

Having said this sloka by heart, 10 times a day, all week. You may or may not be able fly.

Thai Poranthaal Vazhi Porakkum

Pandian — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 23:23:50 +0000

Its Tamil to English time, Thai Poranthaal Vazhi Porakkum is a golden Tamil Proverb, it beautifully depicts the hope of every man. I translated the line to English in a creative way as

when there comes January, there is a way.

in Tamil calendar, Thai comes a day after, Boki, on which we will burn all our old scraps and we start walking on a new way.

when i say scraps, its only scraps, and we should never forget the good things. Sometimes even bad things comes handy in future. so, what should i do?
