Ok dont brand this comment atheistic. Its just about the quote from Aesop's Fables that caught my eye, and Logically what i say next should make sense -
If you have to strive hard anyway then why do you have to pray, just believe in your self. Just Believe that you can achieve what you want and believe that you don't need an invisible hand to overlook your imperfections and push you to achieve it. You can do it all by your self.

pretty comprehensive explanation.. Good perception, might be what was in their mind before they made it.
Unfortunately I had just read about Seinfeld endorsing and stuff but had not seen the ad.

My first reaction was - Ok back at Mac, i am the PC and I tell you, your products have limitations, We are more flexible and we have something big coming up.
And ofcourse, I have to say, Both Jerry and Bill look older now than what i remember seeing them most. lol..

in Google Chrome, first impressions on Déjà Vu
Good post.. nice clean and compact...
well most of it was my first impression too.. but a few aspects i had not tried out yet.. got them cleared before hand.
Way too many posts and opinions about chrome all around the internet..
and about your inclination of you shifting over to chrome ... eh tat part.. i feel its too early.. and i would just stick with firefox for rather some more time..

But chrome just proves how slow firefox is..
I mean i just boot my system, open both the browsers at the same time.. chrome opens up and i navigate to a website and firefox is yet to open.. lethargically it then firefox comes to life...
Its slow.. but i might just stick with it for some more time.. the browser is just too customised to how i use it and i think it wouldnt be wrong to say tat its the most used application...

its pure narrow mindedness.. I mean why on earth do u think that being a software engineer can be no ones dream.Its just that u were born in bangalore, and have all friends who are software engineers... and here its like a prototype, any middle class guy opts to be a se because he can find an easy job.
Now can u just get out of a box and think, if you were not in bangalore, say u were in dubai or some country, where the most common profession is not SE, you would perhaps say, being a SE is achieving a dream.

Besides if someone sits in a garage and codes then its a dream and if someone sits in a cubicle and does the same its "sit in a cubicle all day and type crappy code".. cmon...

This has happend to me.... I like to code, and any bit of work is interestng when u dont know how to solve a problem and u have to find a solution.
When i get into my work, i get so engrossed that i forget my out look, i dont check mail, i forget my communicator and everything.... its just my work and me.... This is liking what u do
But when u sit down to study or code and then you find an interesting link and share it with ur friends, in bet or you find time to twitter "I am reading how to code ruby" or something like that... thats wen you are not totally interested in what u do and u are forcing it on yourself...
may be its not a dream, its a fantasy because u see many people do that and become successful and you want to be them.
The destination is not a dream, the road to the destinatino is....

Well .. the update on the Wimbledon Men's Final .. 2008, Roger came back into the game after teh rains, and picked himself up from 'down 2 set to zero' to dragging the match all the way to the final set. Not just that, but the tie breaker in the final set.

The match went on and on.. roughly a little shy of 5 hours, I heard the commentator say, this is the longest Wimbledon Men's final ever played.

What ever it is, It is sure the best Tennis match I have ever seen. What a battle...

All in all.. Rafel Nadal won his first Wimbledon and Roger Federer loses a Wimbledon after holding on to it for 5 consecutive years.

Is this a new champion in the making ??? I dont know .. all I know is.. I dont feel good.. I wanted Fed to win.. and he lost by a nanometer..

THis reminds me of my college days.

It was Friday the 13th, The Exam of DSP (Digital Signal Processing). It was a dreaded exam, and infact many were speaking about this unlucky day.

As i recall it was in 2006, January i guess.

Well, co-incidently i suppose (because i dont think i have paraskavedekatriaphobia :) ) many had failed in the exam....

Well Azharc said it all right... besides my take on this is ..
How many people know what exactly they want to do in their life, something like - Yes! this is the thing, this is what i want to be,This is what i want to do in my life in future. Ask your self, If one word doesn’t come up straight away( you will not have to think for this), then you perhaps are doing the right thing now(whatever u are doing).Stop complaining, if you are.
If you come up with a profession spontaneously, even then, it should not change every 2 years as you grow up. What i believe in is that if anyone wants to seriously be something then no matter what they will find a way to.Its just how badly u want it.
I picked these lines from my blog entry.
Besides - we grow and so our likes, dislikes, hobbies and dreams too.

azharcs @pavan I am sure, it was nobody's dream to sit in a cubicle all day and type crappy code. Now you will say, we all have to make a living and we have to do crap work. People need purpose in life, It defines their whole life. Ask an artist what he loves, and he would say Art. Ask a entrepreneur what he likes and he says product. Majority of the people who don't follow their dreams are the people who complain about their jobs, their boss, their pay and all that crap. If they had followed their dream, they would have nothing to complain about. The reason they complain so much is because they didn't make the important decisions in their life(somehow parents, peers and practicality took over) and now they complain to tell that those decisions were wrong.
