On my APEX website , Tripod website  , MSN Live Space  and on my Blogger's blog , I try to put that web links or web blogs as soon as possible which I  find interesting and useful.  You can see the list of my favorite blogs and sites over there.  I do that for two reasons.  One, I find it so much easy to locate and visit my favorite websites and blogs from one place and second it shall help anyone else too who is looking for some good websites and blogs,to locate and find them at one place.  That's why I try to add any website and blog of my interest as soon as I locate it. Its been long time ago since I added any new site and blog in my lists.  Not that coz I didn't find anything exciting or useful but coz I didn't have that much time to site and update the templates of my blogs and sites.  Today I decided finally to do it before I shall misplace the list and than will regret.  So here are some new additions in my list of useful sites and blogs.Hope you will find them

  Please note, I am not married and so this all is not to reflect my pain or inner emotions in any sort of manner.I just found these definitions while stumbling across internet, found them humorous so thought would share these with you all.So just enjoy these and :-).  Marriage is not a word . It's a sentence (a life sentence) .  Marriage is love . Love is blind . Therefore marriage is an institution for the blind .  Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his Bachelor's Degree and the woman gets  her  Masters . Marriage is a three-ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring and suffering . Married life is full of excitement and frustration: In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens.In the third year, they both speak and the NEIGHBOUR listens. Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends.You order what you want, and when you see what th

What's the best thing that you can do when you are sick and walking 10 minutes too makes you tired like that you have climbed Mount Everest ?Exactly you watch movies :-)!So that's what I am doing from some days as my health is a bit shaky from last many days.  So I watched these 3 movies and here is my opinion on them: The Cave I do no like movies which are much dark movies and whatever is happening is happening in a dark environment.  All you can see, hear is some shouting, cries but nothing clear is there in front of you. The Cave was no different than that.  I guess there was nothing new that I saw in the movie.  Monsters killing people, people running and shouting, out of all who shows in the starting of the movie, 2/3 makes it to the end.  Movie starts with a punch but loses its entire charm till the end.  Won't say that I wasted my 2 hours but I am certainly not going to watch it again either. Tom-Yum Goong Tony Jaa, with his first movie, Ong-Bak  , broke all the r

If you would be given a chance to take a picture of Superman ,(yes you heard me right,I said Superman only), what would you say?Yes or No?Wait, hold your answer!If I would say that your pictures can also become the cover picture of a leading newspaper?Now will you do it or not?Yes?Why you didn't say it before?So here it is, for the first time, everyone is invited to shoot Superman and those will do it according to the rules , they will see their work on the front page of Daily Planet .So click here and start shooting Superman! Warning - Its a complete wastage of time.So do it at  your own risk!

Sometimes, when you are sitting alone and you are so much upset, out of nowhere something happens which brings a smile on your face.  That moment becomes so much special and happiest moment for you!Similar sort of moment came for me yesterday.  I was feeling very much upset last night.  Just when I was going to switch off my pc, I just refreshed my bloglines  account page to see whether there were any new posts from my favorite blogs?I found that there was one post and which was from one of my( and I am sure favorite of millions other like me) favorite blogs, Tim Hall's Oracle-Base blog . I just clicked to read it and what I see is that it has a link to one of my posts.  OH GOSH!I immediately checked out my blog and found the comment of Tim that my post was a good one and it made everyone laugh.  I had no words to describe my happiness.  It was one of the most exciting moments for someone who never knew what does a blog mean even when he started it?As much upset and sad I was few m

Today someone came up to me with a situation.  It was a relationship problem of his friend who unfortunately was not so lucky in love and had her heart broken.  After listening to the whole situation, it turned out to me that somewhere, there was some fault of that gal too.  I know it hurts so much and  I understand completely what she must be feeling at the moment but still if she would had acted in a different manner for some matters, things could be much more easier for her today.  I hope everything goes fine with her and she get herself recovered as soon as possible.  After hearing the whole situation, when I said to that person that that gal had some fault too, he didn't like it very much as she is very close to him.  He said that she is not wrong anywhere and don't say that she is at any fault.  But I guess if you are asking for an opinion, you must make yourself ready for any good/bad opinions that may come up along the way.  It is not always that you will hear favorable

Sometimes simple looking things are not so simple.  I  found these questions just now when I was stumbling upon site.  Well to tell you the truth, I tried to answer these trivia's but I did not have much luck.  If you can come up with answer of any of these questions, do let me know me too :-). All the best!! Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat ? Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there is not enough? Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet? Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle? Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection? Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard? Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest,but ducks when you throw a revolver at him? Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets? Whose idea was it to put an "S" in the word "lisp"? What is the speed of da

With me, the biggest problem  that I am facing now a days is that I don't have my own laptop so I am not able to catch up with my favorite blogs when I travel.Yes I can read them at the workplace but I do not like to do that.  I prefer to read them in my own privacy.  So whenever I travel I miss reading them which creates a backlog for me to finish when I am back home.  This time, I wasn't around for almost 20 days so there was a HUGE backlog which was there for me to finish.  But despite this time there was too much to read and I am sick as well, I have managed to finish reading all my favorite blogs rather more quickly than any time before.  Believe me its true!  How did it happen?No idea :-).But I am back on the track now and I am  :-).

Now a days, it is more often that we are switching jobs.  So there are more times than before that we have to face interviews.  Even if one is not switching (that means he/she is not already employed) and is a fresher, sooner or later, he/she has to sit and face one!You can't change it and you definitely don't want to be unsuccessful in one too.  So if your going for an interview very soon or you are going to appear in it later future, before going, have a read of the following tips to avoid some common errors that you can make in an interview and 50 most common interview questions and their answers.  Well answers are in general but they will give you a good baseline what to say when you will be asked the same question.  I found these when I was stumbling over net.  I found them quiet useful so thought will share with you all.  Very common stuff but still useful I guess.  Check out the links given below: 10 Avoidable interview Flubs 50 Most Common interview Q/A  

I just found it while stumbling on the sites.Needless to say that I knew what was going to happen but still it made me smile :-). Click here to watch it.

Yesterday evening I was feeling a little sick with cold and today morning, elder brother of cold , fever is also here.  Great!And on top of that, my mood has just become so much upset!Why?I shall answer this in an upcoming post of mine coz it will take more than one line to describe the reason.So what I am going to do now suffering with cold and fever and an upset mood? Any options? Well what I have decided,listen music and continue reading my favorite blogs.Sounds okay right :-)?

Once again, after a long long time, in Hindi motion picture tracks, there is something which we can finally call  music. Its not very common that motion picture tracks match the standards in the terms of lyrics, music and singing as like private( or in more simple terms, Pop ) albums. Music is just an added attraction in movie and that's why much of the attention is towards the movie itself. But now after a long time, there is some nice music that is out with the release of Woh Lamhe and Bas Ek Pal .  Soundtrack of Woh Lamhe and Bas Ek Pal has come up very well on the standards of an excellent quality music.  What is coming next is my opinion on the soundtrack of these two motion pictures.  Have a read: Woh Lamhe  Pritam Chaudhary is among the most talented new music directors which are creating waves in the music industry with their innovations with tunes.Pritam has already proved himself in the past with the all time hit sound track of

After a long and grueling road and air travel.  I guess I have traveled much longer this time than any other time before and it was like that for forever,I would be just traveling with my luggage this time:).But finally I am back home today with a little pain (that too came just  when I was about to get home and I shall tell you about it after just a little while from now) and a great sense of satisfaction that everything went well for all, the only thing that matters the most for me! So as you know that I left on 18th of this month.  This time it was going to be a little different for me for couple of reasons.  First and far most important one was that I was going for an overseas assignment to BanglaDesh.That one reason is strongest one to make the entire tour most different from any other tours of past.  Second reason which I feel is also a very strong factor that I was going for a module which was completely new for me and I had very little or should say none in my hands to prepa

I am going offline for next few days.There is an important or I must say rather very important assignment that I have to take care of.Really tense how its going to be.Lets see.Wish me luck and pray for me.Adios....

After a "long" tour, I am back.  Sorry guys this time I couldn't let all you know that I am going as I normally always try to do.  I was helpless as my home internet connection was down for 2 days and I was so much busy in my friend Manjeet's wedding which happened just one day prior to my this trip.  So literally had no time(and facility) to intimate you. So I left on 4th of this month.  This time it was a little different as I had to stop in the way to pick someone as he was also going with me to the same place( well this is what I had in mind).So I started in the morning at 8am and took the bus to the prefixed destination.  We were supposed to meet at the railway station at 10.30am so I planned accordingly and was there at about 9.45am coz I don't like to wait and moreover don't like at all that someone else is doing the same coz of me.  So I was there and called the guy.  Guess what?He told me that he is not coming.  No not that he wasn't coming with m

My biggest problem is that I am not having my own laptop at the moment.  So whenever I am traveling,I miss  to read my favorite blogs.When I come back,I am welcomed by a huge list of blog items in all of my blog list.Its like an exercise to finish them :-(.Now you must say that why not I read them at work?Well here comes another problem and that is principles.  Never read anything personal on work which includes  blogs too .Strange?I know it is but cant help it now.  Anyway, as I am back( you know I am back home right ;-), I was reading my list of blogs.Just now I finished all of them.  I am happy?Definitely I am :-).Now there is some time to do some other work.  What is that?Write some of  my own thoughts, listen some music or the best and most difficult of all,do nothing ;-).Enjoy the weekend.

I just became  Live  2 days ago.  How was the experience?Well to tell the truth, I really am not sure.  It was more like test-and-see kind of thing.for me as I was already using the Live version  of Hotmail so I thought why not try this same for my messenger and spaces also?I wasn't really happy with the outcome after the switch but what really made me upset yesterday that the extensions of messenger were eating too many resources.  My cpu was running like to make a world record.  So I did what I could thought of at that time.  You are right.  I said bye bye to being Live and went back to being "normal" again with uninstalling everything "Live" with re-installing normal stuff.  In this attempt, I removed Live messenger and installed Messenger 6.2 .I was using ver7.5 before this so I thought I would upgrade it afterwards.  I also uninstalled all the extensions that were installed with the Live messenger.  Installation of 6.2 went like breeze.  It gave the messag

I have done a little tweaking of my new Windows Live Space . If you saw it before, you will find that the title has been changed, a new tag line has been added.  Some positions are changed and I have added my entire favorite blog list which is already existing on my APEX website , Tripod website  and on my Blogger Blog . I have written some entries on my blog on Spaces but as the entries are entirely same over the other places so I request you to come on either my Blogger's Blog  or on my  WordPress Blog . Any inconvenience caused is deeply regretted.
