Yes, our company is planning for expansion. Listing is on NSE only. We do business in the most of well know banks in abroad and in India. I still feel this is for more reachability of the company. Im planning to take part in the IPO.

Update : Aditya Krishna, our Managing Director told press "We have readymade proprietary products like Verisens which allow banks to quickly implement business intelligence solutions that enhance the value of their core business offering,"  regarding the IPO.

Issue price is Rs.30 (Face Value 10 + Premium 20),it is priced moderately less. 25,00,000 Lac shares @ Rs.30 yielding  Rs. 7.5 Crores and  opens on 30th March & Closes on 7th April. But no preference for employees ;)

The risk factor is a elongated banana leaf, it explains a lot..... and I was told by people in Admin that it is oversubcribed nearly 30 times in the 5th day of its opening!!!! I wish I will get.

The SIMPUTER – a Simple, Inexpensive, Mobile ComPUTER – was co-developed in 1998 by Encore Software Ltd and scientists from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bangalore. I have heard about this Simputer before. But not seen till this Linux-Bangalore 2004. Encore was the Silver Sponsor for the event. So they had a stall. And gave a talk in the event about the Sathi.

 "Are you from the country where Simputer was born ?", somebody asked Atul once in Singapore it seems, he said in the LB2004 event.

Really its cool. I had chance to work in that for few minutes. Great work by a Indian Company. It was fast enough to take my inputs. Myself and Prady were in their stall. They explained well about the device. They deliver Simputer with Linux, but previously they had a option of giving it with WinCE.Net :)

Once I read a article in PCQuest, " Honey I shrunk the Kernel". This suits them well.

[Encore Simputer]

 its a  SPECIAL TRIP   since we went to see the elephants  from different parts of the state. Cool, its our CM JJ's order. But, i felt its worth doinggg. This is the second yr,

As usual we(anna, myself & athai, Akka was in madras, so she couldn't )  started in the morning,  to mudumalai from Tirupur. yes, its his SKODA, which took us all there....

From ooty it was 37 Kms to Mudumala(via Thalaikundha & Kallatti ). But it took more than 1 hour. Near Kallatti we saw a jeep standing by its side .. its Bajaj Trax .......Thank god, it didn't slip the other side of the road, which is a big slope...

When we reached mudumalai, we were honoured by some monkeys. :)  From 1 1/2 yrs old baby elephant to a old one, was just enjoying the climate. Few doctors were trying to give some medicine too.... They feed those huge animals with big balls of RICE mixture(made up of rice, sugar, etc.,) And few of them took bath in the nearby stream

We were there for two hours, we took some stills too, but I couldn't bring it back, since some problem in my bro PC's USB port.

And you know, while coming from mudumalai we saw a single elephant(not the one in the temple, real wild one)just crossing the road and was just going towards the stream, hopefully to drink water.... Its december, and still it was hot........

Try visiting http://www.kiruthik.com/pic.php?mudumalaitrip  for the pics..... Hopefully it will be available soon.

Nearly after 5 months of HOTMAIL's 250MB, yahoo increased its mailbox size to 250 MB....

I hope Yahoo will also reach 1GB in few years(if they increase the size like this) :)

But HOTMAIL still didn't increased the mailbox size of all users. Only to those in US, CANADA and few other countries. Not to India yet.....

Software giant's free mail service HOTMAIL is to increase the size from 2MB to 250MB(125 times????). Yahoo already increased its size to 100MB. Reason behind this is : Google's Gmail. The 1GB event happened on 1st April, this year.

I used download all the old mails to my mail client and rip it in a CD,  so that i won't delete my mails, due to space problem. But everything have changed now... Few files, I have uploaded in my yahoo mailbox so that it i won't misplace it!!!!!!

Anyway thank google  for making this free web-mail industry a competitive one.

My previous software for my own personal account was using VB & MS Access. Now Im working mostly in Linux, so atleast for the daily entried I used to log into windows....  So to solve this, I converted my small VB based app to PHP so that i can use it in both Windows & Linux and the database is our free MySql.....
