Open source: enabling the small-time entrepreneur
Many people by now have heard of Gogola, the "Google-inspired" golawala on Linking Road, Bandra.
But what is this?
A Firefox window
An Apache webserver
Go FOSS!

Miscellany
** It is possible to have a "the best fifteen minutes of my life" over and over again.
** New addiction discovered.
** Old addiction re-discovered.
** Why should Microsoft, Apple and Canonical be fighting tooth and nail to recruit LA Laker Lamar? 'cos OdomOS would be bug-free :-)
** Being without the Internet for an extended period of time is painful. Being on the verge of getting a connection for a week is moreso :-(
** The damn POTUS comes on television way too often, hence I would vote for Obama because he appears more presentable on TV. Image is everything.
** The tech world is bubbling with news about Microsoft decentness, be it Windows Media Player 12, Secondlight or the INR 15k price-tag on the Xbox 360 Core system.
** The Wii has flown out of one's list of desirables. Primarily due to price gouging by Nintendo, the lack of a decent TV comes in a distant second.
** Hooray! Wikipedia search has spelling suggestions!

21st century, not 1984
In a way, the world-view [...] imposed itself most successfully on people incapable of understanding it. They could be made to accept the most flagrant violations of reality, because they never fully grasped the enormity of what was demanded of them, and were not sufficiently interested in public events to notice what was happening. By lack of understanding they remained sane. They simply swallowed everything, and what they swallowed did them no harm, because it left no residue behind, just as a grain of corn will pass undigested through the body of a bird.Wake up, sheeple! Stop swallowing the modern spew that passes for journalism! Think for yourselves!

Do you really want those people?
2007: "IT? That's sooo 2000! They all lost their jobs in the dot-com bust! Finance is where it's at!"
2008: "Finance? That's sooo 2007! They all lost their jobs in the Wall Street bust! IT is where it's at!"
