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 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.

Learning of the Day : If you choose to use Internet that in itself implies that you are sacrificing your anonymity. Over the past few years, I tried to invent ways in which you can try to be anonymous, but every one of them had inherited flaws because after all everything has to flow on a wire which is not something you control.

I was trying to sleep and somebody woke me up. I tried controlling myself, but almost shouted at him. Was retrying to sleep since last one hour, but failed miserably as usual. Woke up. Started browsing the regular sites and happened to check comments on my life blog. And saw a back link. Visited and read this awesome post by Sanrag Sood. I never read such stuff in my life. I am sure the guy is crazy/mad/whatever. Its a must read thing. For me its a post of century kinda thing.

THE time when I say Microsoft rocks is when I play Age of Empires 2 with my friends on LAN. For the third time, I am addicted to Age of Empires. What a game!!! A brief overview of my addictions.

We had three days with totally fluctuating internet. The fluctuation was almost like a sine wave. Nobody could really figure out what went wrong and where the problem was.
NOTE : This post is not just another ‘masalla’ post. I am writing down the actual experience I had.

Well, this is not really a want. This is my need. My room is damn hot these days. Why??? See the pics below.

Click the pics to have a clear look. I have these three machines which are continuously injecting heat in my 12×10 feet room. I can’t keep windows open to stop theft.

I am not sure if I’ll have a data center in my room by the time I’ll complete my b.tech.

Just a quick wrap up of happenings in last month before I leave for home.
1. Do what you want and never care what others have to say about it. example -> http://fedora.co.in/
2. Don’t ever think that you are perfect in your field. Nobody is perfect.
3. No machine (computer) in this world is secure. Only the switched off machines are 100% secure.
4. Talk less, do more.

Previous week was a bit more busier than I actually expected. I wonder why I have to attend a lot of meetings. There were 3-4 of them last week.

Well, enough has been said about reservation by millions of bloggers and other people who express their views on Internet either by blogging or forums or any other medium. And most of the people ( the ones who fall in the non-reserved categories and the ones who think its not a good idea) have opposed it. FYI, I fall in OBC (other backward classes), but I never used this because I had enough talent to defeat the problems myself.
