...and what a relief... Stumbled upon Ubuntu at slashdot discussions. The comments were pretty interesting which provoked me to poke my nose into the developments in Linux... visited the ununtu site only to find some release candiate. It was also blocked since the full version was due on next day. So decided to wait for another day to download. The next day had to wait till late evening to see the full version online. Then downloaded the .iso file and decided to install it on VMWare since messing around with my office system would be a disaster. The wait was worth it... the installation process asked me a zillion less questions than my first attempt at installing RH4.1. The desktop was very much impressive and stable. Internet started working by itself. This was the biggest bottle neck in using Linux. Rest all worked with equal ease. The mail, CD writer software...everything... Even blogging this article from Ubuntu desktop... it simply simple...

Recently Airtel activated GPRS on my cell phone by default. I first planned to disable it thinking that it was a marketing stunt to earn more revenue. But before that i planned to check what new things that are developed since i last used GPRS on my cell. So the first thing i checked was of course Google Mobile Mail which was introduced just after i had stopped using GPRS last time. It was smooth, sleek and sophisticated as expected from google. Ok done now what? Just happened to stumble upon the google earth website. To my surprise they had a java based application to download. Ok cool, downloaded and installed. When i started browsing it as as smooth as actually moving around in reality. It really rocks !!! They also have Google Mobile Search , Google Mobile News and Google Mobile Calendar . Calender was interesting but i don't use it much. I need to find a migration tool which can migrate my yahoo calender to google calender. Checked out Yahoo Mobile also, but its all PAI...
