Whats in a Blog: July 2010

Whats in a Blog. Monday, July 12, 2010. The FIFA World Cup 2010. A dream come true! It was in 2006 that I first went to onsite. To South Africa to be precise. It was the same year that South Africa was chosen to host the FIFA World Cup 2010. I never thought I would get to see a World Cup football match live; that too on my compay's expense :-). And I almost forgot. I got to hold the original FIFA trophy in my hands and I got myself photographed with it. (see my facebook profile) :-). Cars 2 - 3.5/5.

Whats in a Blog: October 2009

Whats in a Blog. Monday, October 26, 2009. The Champions League T20 final; what an awesome event it has been so for. But no Indian team in the final. The only thing left to do was to hate the Australian team New South Wales Blues and naturally start supporting Trinidad and Tobago. What flair and style have we seen from them! Kieron Pollard, what a player! Cut to the scene where Daren Ganga is on strike. Out of no where Neeraj declares that. Would be out the next ball. Square cuts and gets caught! But thi...

Whats in a Blog. Sunday, May 9, 2010. Motorola Milestone. my first smartphone. Since long, i had a wish to own a smart phone. All along, these phones keep on coming in the market and I always said "They are too expensive". Let them be on the display shelf. For the next one week, the brochure just lied in front of me. The same thought in my mind "Its too expensive". Next day, voila. I had spent Rs. 26,600/- for Motorola Milestone. My first smart phone. The first hand review of this cell coming soon. May 1...

http://gaurav8221.blogspot.com/2010/02/curious-case-of-hpcompaq-laptops-their.html
Whats in a Blog. Sunday, February 14, 2010. The curious case of HP Compaq Laptops and their Drivers. Just a few hours back I completed a mission which since the last few days was turning out to be a lost cause. A dear friend of mine has a Compaq (owned by HP) laptop which did not come with any OS installed. He got Windows XP installed on it and started facing the problem of the hardware drivers not working. When I got an opportunity to try fixing this problem, I realized how big a cheat HP is. Awesome In...

Whats in a Blog. Friday, April 2, 2010. Just recently, I managed to prepare a cheese omelet at my home, which to my surprise did not ooze the cheese out and stick it to the pan. It was just perfect to be transferred from the pan to the plate and ready to eat. Hence, thought of sharing the recipe and the cooking procedure with you cheese omelet guys. So here goes:. Little finely chopped onion. 1 tbl spoon oil. Beat the 2 eggs in a bowl. Add salt and pepper to the bowl and beat well. Once done, serve the o...
