Ninnindale...

Resuming my assault on music, after some time....This time I have selected a hit song, a Kannada one at that- ninnindale from film Milana. Mano Murthy and Sonu Nigam combination has created magic in several songs, including this one. Sonu Nigam won Filmfare Award for Best Male Playback Singer for this song in the year 2007. Hope you will like my version. My sincere apologies to my Kannadiga friends for any pronunciation errors- "swalpa adjust maadi" :-)

HAPPY DIWALI !!

Although I have never been an Apple Fanboy (not just because Apple has always treated India with high handed disdain and cold indifference since its inception) or owned an Apple product to date, there's no denying that Steve Jobs was an inspiration and visionary to friends and foes alike!  RIP

G-mail Motion- Are you game?

Would you go through all this trouble to send me an e-mail?  Google certainly thinks so.


Now you can control G-mail with your body- Google has introduced G-mail Motion.  You can try it by clicking “Try Gmail Motion” button in that page.  Google says it is easy to learn and will increase your productivity.  You can check out some of the sample gestures here.



According to Google, it will be healthy and fun.  Methinks it will be fun for the onlooker.  What we accomplish with mere fingers would need a whole body- and with not quite good results.
