Moving to a new place

Change is the only constant.

Moving to a new place brings in its own nuances.

Moreover if you have to travel everyday by a train.

1. You can catch up with that long pending list of books to read.
Currently reading - Fountainhead (2nd Run)
Need to get a big dose of Objectivism once again.

2. Gives you time to get into the groove for the professional rigmarole ahead.

3. 5-6 songs in the morning really makes your day (what with some beautiful maidens to bowl you over sitting right across)

4. Really makes you appreciate your own time in a much better way.

My New Favourite Haunt

There is something about a bookshop that makes you go back again and again. Its so easy to ge lost in the myriad collection of books for hours together. One wanders from 'Biography' to 'Travel' to 'Management' to 'Fiction'. Of late I have started liking to spend my weekend free time in BORDERS.

Grab a grande latte and a cosy corner and u can spend 2-3 hours of world-class thoughts swirling in ur head. I see a copy of Khaled Hossieni's masterpiece 'Kite Runner' on the recommended reading list. Have to find some time for this book very soon.

'Billions of blue blistering barnacles' goes a young blond kid marvelling at Captain Haddock's trademark dialogue from one of Tintin's adventures. I smile and reminisce when I used to do the same many years back.

As I move out of BORDERS with my second cup of coffee I have already fixed up my time for the next weekend to visit my new favourite haunt.

Open Social ... Way to go Google

Its out. Google stealthily has conjured up an amazing idea which is better for itself, the internet and last but not least millions like me.

Basically, OpenSocial provides a common set of APIs for social applications across multiple websites. Using standard JavaScript and HTML, they enable developers to create apps that access a social network's friends and update feeds to begin with and more going forward.

See this video.



Start creating some applications rightaway!!!
