Looking for Sania Mirza Pictures?

I just observed that more and more people are dropping by this blog looking for Sania Mirza's pictures. I think this has to do with an earlier post of mine. But that is not entirely my fault if Google and Yahoo, and even MSN (which for some reason doesn't like showing my blog in its results, most of the time) are misdirecting people.

By the way, this reminds me that Sania Mirza got to talk to Shekhar Gupta on NDTV's Walk the Talk. Now that is some achievement, joining a list that includes Sonia Gandhi, Narayan Murthy, Ratan Tata, Jagadish Bhagwati and many more distinguished personalities. (Interviews of these four have been my favourite on WtT till date.) But frankly speaking, the Sania Mirza interview was a huge disappointment. It'll have to go down as the dullest ever on WtT.

Gmail Chat Disabled

Firefox Extension for coComment!

I have put up the Firefox Extension for coComment! I and a few friends have been using it for a day now and it seems to work fine! Download coComment! for Firefox coComment! for Firefox allows you to coComment! from the right-click context menu and is of great help especially when commenting in a pop-up window where you can't access your bookmarks. Also, with this extension you will not have to move from the comment area to your bookmarks to click the 'bookmarklet' and then back, before you click the submit button on the blog. With this extension, you can directly move on to the submit button after writing the comment and merely hit the right click 'activating' coComment before submitting the post. Simple Fitts' law and it makes your browsing experience a great deal better and faster. Let me know what you think of it!

The Winner is Cricket

"Nothing gets the nation going like Cricket does." A few days ago, I would have thought twice before saying this, but the recent exploits of our Men in Blue in the European continent have ensured that we fans have converted back to our first religion of choice- Cricket! They went to Ireland down and out- written off, forgotten by their fans, away from the radar of the media. And then, all it took was a 2-1 drubbing of the Proteas in Belfast and the "Team India" was on its road to recovery- the road to fame again. Then came England and by this time, the media had got excited- again, the newspapers and Television were discussing cricket- again, and "expectation" was back- again. The Mighty Four were on their last full tour to England and all of a sudden, none wanted to miss the spectacle. Cricket was back, forgotten for just a while, but back in all its glory; much like one of its own disciples whom we all know as Dada. The nation was believing again, so ...
