Miracle Energy Source !!!

You must have heard about the Bloom Box. If you have'nt then this video shows an in-depth look at how the Bloom Box works. When this is released for public purchase, its going to truly revolutionize the energy industry. The small box which you can hold in your hand could power FOUR Indian homes (or) ONE American home.
This looks very promising and is an exiting prospect for everyone trying to go green.

Guys, after watching this, still you want to present a paper about creating green energy, guess this guy K.R.Shridar has beaten everyone in the race to create efficient clean energy.

The State of the Internet

This is an awesome video i stumbled upon on YouTube. It should give you a very good overview about the state of the Internet as of 2009. It basically deals with stats about social networking sites and YouTube and their traffic volumes. Overall a fun video to leave you dumbfounded with mind boggling numbers :)

Halo Reach Multiplayer Trailer Released

Bungie today released the Multi-player trailer of its upcoming ' AWESOME' game Halo Reach (Woot !!) . Apart from ton loads of new info, its the first look at what one can expect from the multiplayer beta which kicks off on May 3 2010 ( mark your calenders, halo fans !! ) The game modes that are featured are Invasion,Head Hunter,Active Roster,Arena. Though it is not clear about the finer details, it is an indicator of what one can expect. With new weapons such as the Needling Rifle and a sort of a grenade launcher that locks on to vehicles, Bungie seems to be revamping to whole way halo is going to be played. With the reintroduction of the heath bar which was seen in Halo Combat Evolved, one can expect multiplayer is going to be quite different from Halo 3. As always the BGM rocks !!


Cant wait for May 3rd when i can finally catch the Beta when it falls on Xbox Live only ( suck on this PS Fanboys :p)

What i do to learn English !!

Do you want to know ?? well i go to a place which is frequented by many ... i go to a place ' X ' (i am a man who respects privacy :) ) . This place X looks like about 25 rows of this

Let me now start to tell you what i actually do to learn English (which is quite lame that after learning English for 14 odd years , one comes to know that he is incapable of tackling the verbal section of the GRE  :( ). Starting from home, about 75 minutes in advance and arriving at X about 45 minutes in advance, one might expect many seats vacant and that a place close to the board is a sure event. Thats where everything falls apart. this hope, optimism, enthusiasm is quashed by the Place Grabbing Gang !! who turn up about 2 hours in advance (that is what i assume they do ) and arrive with lots of books to reserve a place at the front. Such a benevolent lot you would think. If anyone reading this is a part of that Gang, please note that i am very cross at you ( i know you wont care , but still.. ) Anyway, after settling down in the middle of the well ventilated and well lit hall, the waiting begins. Never will the class begin on time , thanks to some students who cant get enough of the prof during the regular classes. 

The actual class begins and it is punctuated by some biased remarks from the Prof about China or his own life and some totally baffling and irrelevant doubts from the gathering. Oh God ! During Sundays where the Prof does grammar, one can find a few people walking out , which ultimately irks the Prof (who cares anyways)

Overall, thinking about it i spend an average of 3.5 hours of an evening for a 1.5 hour class. Okay its actually 1 hr 15 mins if you count the punctuality of the Prof. Darn... Sorry its 50 mins if you count the daily lecture which is repeated everyday. **** (sorry) its 40 mins if you count the doubts ...

 What i do to learn English ... :(

My First Encounter with the Supercar kind

My first post, and what an event to start of with. The idea of the auto show at CEG and that of the R8 being there,was exiting but at the same time brought about the skeptical 'me' . I thought , well there will be tons of people or that the car would never arrive and that it would turn out to be a damp squib. I was wrong, first thing upon arrival at the venue, there it was !! in the covers.

The event went on well and along with the R8 and its collosal rims were some other exotics like the 1967 Ford Mustang, Hummer H3 , Mercedes SLK 350 Convertible , Mini Cooper S and the usual mercs and bmws and audis which have become quite common on Chennai roads

I got a good view of all cars thanks to some loitering around at the venue before the start of the event, but as the crowd started piling up , i was annoyed not by the crowd who were taking pictures from behind the stipulated line,but by the so called volunteers who were taking pictures for themselves and thereby ruining a lot more pictures for the visitors who had turned up.

Nevertheless it was a great day were i got to see a car i was ogling at while watching Jeremy Clarkson reviewing it on Top Gear ( Season 10 , Episode 2 ).


Still many Supercars to see ... but man !! where are those Hypercars ?? :p
