1. Configure your firefox to cache 1GB of data.
2. Run squid proxy server on your machine in aggressive caching mode by f**cking up with refresh patterns.
3. Then actually use the above proxy server to browse.

Wasted two hours (5AM – 7AM) in debugging a clean and flawless php script on a remote server with pathetic response time because my firefox+squid messed things up and never requested the actually script from server (

AFTER HUNTING FOR A CREDIT CARD FOR ALMOST ONE DAY, I GOT A MASTER CARD FROM KIRAN M (UG2K5). BOUGHT THE MASTER CARD ITSELF. WAS TOO FRUSTRATED TO REQUEST FOR THE CARD NUMBER AND PUT HIS MONEY ON RISK. FINALLY REGISTERED FOR A VPS HOSTING ON SLICEHOST.COM FOR A 256 SLICE. I CAN’T EXPRESS MY HAPPINESS. I AM TOTALLY OUT OF WORDZ. MORE LATERZ.

I have been too busy to write a post on this very blog Here are quick update.

• Released a few versions of youtube_cache in last couple of weeks. Youtube Cache now supports caching videos from 10 websites. A few ISPs are using it.
• IntelligentMirror also received updates.
• Placements are here. And I am still f**cking with this caching thing. Too addictive.
• Inclination towards higher studies as more and more companies decline campus recruitment. How tough GRE can be?

My new camera fell down on Nov 5, 2008 from a height of almost 5 feet in switched on condition while clicking random pictures. The shock caused a severe damage to the lens cover. The dented lens cover didn’t allow the lens to come out of the camera. It was a shocking moment for me as I purchased it only a month ago.

I still remember when I launched saini.co.in in November last year. That was my first website that I owned and I came to know about things like hosting, domains and related things. This year, I am proudly launching cachevideos.com, which will act as an official website for my (now) popular squid plugin youtube cache. The website is drupal based and all I have done is populated the content, modified some CSS, installed some modules, themes etc. It took almost 1-2 days for building that website. Drupal is a real cool CMS if you want to build sites quickly. Will write a post about how I build that site sometime. A big thanks to Sambhav Jain for customizing the header image for the website using photoshop. And train loadz of thanks to SMR for providing fu**ing awesome hosting service at g33k.in. Will write a review about the hosting sometime soon.
