Bloglines,Qumana and Venom....

-
If you are thinking I am going to use some Alien language,no that's not the case here :-). I am going to share something which can be helpful if you read and write blog like me and then my views about a movie,yes Venom is the name of a movie.
 
There are times when we get hooked to a lot of  blogs and its not easy to cope up with all of them to find out the new enteries.Surely you  can subscribe with the RSS feeds on FireFox and Opera but what about when you would leave your desktop and would be traveling?What about when you have to reinstall the operating system and also your browsers? Would be a problem isn't it?So here is something which can be useful for you.Bloglines is an online feed management portal which takes care of the latest entries on your favorite blogs and would let you know how many new posts are there which you have missed since you last visited them.  Not just the blogs but also it can also take care of your favorite News, Comics, Email Newsletters too. It also saves you from entering the RSS feeds every time on a new install and moreover as its online so its with you wherever you would go.  Very handy and very helpful!If you are not able to find the RSS feed for your favorite blog/newsletter, than have a look at www.Feed43.com which can convert any web page into an RSS feed on the fly.
 
If you like to write blogs like me, than give Qumana  a try.  Its the blog editor I am using since the first time I started writing my blog.  Its simple, its neat and its very easy to use. The interface is very easy to use. I know there are so many other blog editing softwares too but this is something which I like and use.  So thought would share with you all.
 
Alrite so Bloglines is done and so is Qumana.  So now we are left with Venom . I saw this movie last night. Its an horror movie ( well as they say it is in the promos and description of it) but I really couldn't convince myself that I am really watching a horror movie.  Though there was a lot of crying, shouting, people running around all over the places with a lot of blood but still that part, horror was missing. Infact it missed a very important part which is must for a movie to have.  What it is? Story :-).I couldn't understand that what was the story all about and why anyone would want to make a movie on such a story on which this movie was based? I really want to tell you the story but I have no idea from where to start and where to finish?Let me think one more time.Phew!!No I gave up. Fearless from Jet Li is the next in the list. Based on the reviews  from Tim Hall, it would be a good movie. If you see it before me, do let me know your views too.

A Poetic MasterPiece By Faraz.....

-
I am a big fan of good poetry. I am not a poet myself  but where ever I do find anything good written, I try to collect and share it. Surely enough, my first preference would always be Punjabi poetry. But there is no such thing that I wont read from any where else. Whatever is good, I try to make sure that I don't miss it! There are some poets which have created history with their writings. Late Ahmed Faraz is among those handful which wrote timeless pieces from his pen. Saying anything about him would like showing torch to the sun. So without wasting any more time, I would like to share a poetic masterpiece from him which I read today only and instantly fell in love with it. This is in Hindi and I shall translate it English in a while. Please note, this does has lots of words from Urdu as well.I shall put the meanings of those words in the end of both Hindi and English versions. First, in Hindi, Dost ban kar bhi nahin saath nibhane wala, Wohi andaaz hai jaalim ka jamane...

Feelings Revealed Truly & Musically....

In music, out of the most pure forms of it, one is Qawalli . This is that form of music which is sung by the people who are not mere singers but devotees of God. This form of music was not a part of commercial music industry some time ago but due to its magic, its now very common to hear this in almost every where. Despite its used now in the commercial music industry, still the original form of it with minimum music instruments and claps of the singers while singing is the most popular one and remains untouchable. There are many singers who sing this form of music but some have made it a household name due to their singing. Late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan   is among those very few who singers who are known as the masters of this devine music form. Out of millions of Qawalli songs available, there are some which hit straight in the heart. There is one that I am listening from some time and thought to share with you all. This one was specially recommended to me by my friend Sumit who hi...

Shiv Kumar Batalvi, A Legend....

-
There are so many writers in this world and there is just an ocean of literature. But despite the fact that all the writers are good and the entire literature of the world is nice, I still love Punjabi literature and its writers the most. You may call it whatever you want but this is what I really love and it has reasons. And out of all, the foremost reason is that no culture is as rich in its wealth as Punjabi culture and I have yet to read some thing which is as romantic or as painful or as joyful as Punjabi writer's writing are. There is no disrespect to anyone else or any other language but this is what my choice is! There are a lot of writers but few only have power to become immortals with their work. Only some chosen ones have a power to write fire with their words. Out of those few, Shiv Kumar Batalvi  stands apart. It wont ever happen that anyone would be able to touch even the heights where he is with his writing. Its a pity that Shiv had to leave this world so early b...
