    Thought of reviewing Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1. But im bit busy... So I have just added the snapshots here and the remaining will come soon..

UMA, a cousin of mine invited me today for Breakfast (since, its a holyday for HINDUS - ADI 18, pronounced as aadee Pathi nhettu :: Adi is a month in Tamil Calendar, and Pathi nhettu is 18 in Tamil), and it was already 9 in the morning,  i was sitting before the PC.

 I used to shave 2 days once(Monday, Wednesday & Friday), so today is the my due-date. I have to bath, shave, goto Office and before that I have to goto her house for breakfast....But I have only 30 minutes left.  So, after a wide-thinking, I left my PC to take a shower. I was feeling my hurriedness. When I kept my Mach 3 Razor, on my face I smelt something different, it was a mint flavour. I use Nivea shaving cream, and it smells pretty good. So with a tensed mood, I saw down, oops, my toothpaste cap was open...... Then I realised that I tried : Colgate shaving Cream!!!! Still you did't understand ??? Its my toothpaste, colgate. Instead of applying Nivea, I used Colgate. Both are near by.... with the same sized tube.....

Thank god, I didn't use RIN(a washing soap) instead of a bathing soap  or  Harpic(a porcelain basin cleaner) thinking it as a Shampoo......so, what do you think of me now ???

 Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember.

Saw this in TheServerside.Net, quite a funny task from the Editor. 

As per the news, Microsoft is letting Windows Vista Beta 1 tomorrow and official Beta 1 release is on August 3^rd. So, im not going to sleep tommorrow night. Im serious buddy, if it come late then, i will take off  sure...  Hope for the best......

I feel like converting all my old blogs in MySql to XML, so that I can postback it here... I have to start the work atleast tomorrow. Have to update this site, and others as well. Election is going to come in 10 months or less!!!  ArasiyalTalk.com, an otiose undertaking. Have to do something... Have to go to Office...  Niche work for a Vagabond!!!!

After a month Google released Google Earth, Microsoft (MSN) released its own version, MSN Virtual Earth as like it said two months back. The main difference between the two is : Google Earth is a (windows application)client application sits in your computer & access the Google's Site for the image & data, whereas this MSN Google Earth is a web based application. Secondly only basic services are offered for free by Google, here it supports many features which comes in the Google's Paid service.

Coming to MSN Earth, it has the same feature like Google, but the Map is somewhat blured/ not clear. I hope they are their way to new stuffs. But this 2-D map is very good to locate a place. when you goto VirtualEath site, its first shows USA's map, then just by double clicking or even by scrolling the mouse you can zoom in :)

I tried searching CITIBANK, NY and it opened a drop down list, with the address of all the  Citibank(branches) in NY.

I searched my company Saksoft Inc's  address and it showed the place

There is a option of finiding our current location via Wi-Fi  or thru GEO-IP. I tried with GEO-IP,  as expected it showed Chennai

If you have Wi-Fi access, then you can locate yourself in the map   A small activeX control has to be downloaded for that...

Options like Scratch Pad, PermaLink, email the location, and even you can Blog it(only for MSN bloggers).
