I’ve started tweeting of late. I know i’ve arrived late just like i arrived late to blogging. I guess gone are the days when people were paranoid to write about their daily activities (read personal) in public domain. I guess people now live more online, and less off it. Though LiveJournal started the cult at [...]

Price of oil
Posted in Oil, USA, business, market, milliondollars, tagged crude oil, Dubai, India, Oil, OPEC, petroleum, Saudi Arabia, UAE, USA on July 10, 2008 | 35 Comments »
The alarmingly high price of crude oil, touching nearly $150 a barrel, has alarmed every nation across the world but the ones producing. Is it really the excess usage of non-renewable source of energy causing its depletion or a mere speculation using the threat of depleting resources for their ulterior motives? Really hard to say, [...]

This last month or so, inflation seems to be sky rocketing without any bound. The dollar is again touching 43 rupees just when i shortlisted a DSLR to buy. Nearly 4 rupee rise per dollar would increase the cost of owning the DSLR by 12%. Though the rising dollar would be a good sign for [...]

Wouldn’t that be great to see on the news channels as breaking news? The whimsical show-off Dr.Vijay Mallya is capable of doing such antics with the god forsaken Bangalore Royal Challengers.
Having Rahul Dravid as an icon player for a Twenty20 tournament, buying aged ’star players of the yesteryears’ ignored by the cricket boards of their [...]

Don’t be evil
Posted in business, market, tagged evil, google, yahoo on April 18, 2008 | 10 Comments »
An informal corporate slogan for Google, seems to have given them good mileage. How true to their slogan are Google? Not very much i think, yes may be during their university days they had the noble thoughts but not any longer.
Many a times i have seen people who preach and profess good things(noble deeds, [...]

Which Friends Character Are You?
You are part Ross. You're intelligent and adored by your parents. However, your lack of social skills causes you to talk too much and try too hard. While your friends pick on you for your nerdiness, they better watch out for your rage.
You are part Joey. You may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but you're unrivalled when it comes to the opposite sex. You're a great friend, going great lengths when needed. Remember: your friends are your lifeline and you'd better not leave them behind. Success will be hard to find without them around.
