exploits: Cracking the password
http://utsav-exploits.blogspot.com/2009/10/cracking-password.html
Monday, October 5, 2009. I had a disturbing nightmare yesterday. No, it was not that I was torched to death by mobsters nor did I happen to fall on the toothed granite rock after the bungee rope gave way. It was far worse. I had forgotten all my logins and passwords in this global village of Earth. I was a castaway. Had I had only one banking account? What does one do in such a case? Google as usual. There are online password managers like clipperz and Lastpass. Do I trust them? 8216;You are an idiot?

exploits: February 2010
http://utsav-exploits.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 28, 2010. After years of prodding by my friends, I decided to give Goa. A visit last year. My expectations were huge just like tall swaying palms. Along the coastline. The small airport followed by long narrow stretch to North Goa. However, by the time I left the place, I felt in love with the place. Goa has a nagging tendency to grow upon you. So it’s not surprising that when I revisited the place a few days back, I again came back with a longing to spend more time in Goa. Shaped raft o...

Sunday, January 31, 2010. Over the entire spine chilling. January, I happened to meet 4 different sets of ‘chilled-out’ people. Since these meetings were confined indoors, there was more of talking and less of meaningless chatter. These people were chilled out because they cared so little about their finances. I met a 26 year old, single male earning a good sum of money. He did not have any debt apart from his monthly motorcycle. Yes, they do. Do they save enough? I am amazed that these set of people exi...

Sunday, October 26, 2008. My First Job Interview: Part 5 of 5. As soon as my name was called out, I went dizzy with joy. The moment had come and I was there making sure that it was for real. My moments, my thirty seconds of fame. I would definitely have that burning desire deep down inside to relive those moments once again. Hordes of people, my friends and well-wishers, gathered around me, congratulated me and hugged me all over. The joy was eternal and happiness everlasting. During the next few months,...

exploits: Air, Water, Food and Internet
http://utsav-exploits.blogspot.com/2009/04/air-water-food-and-internet.html
Sunday, April 5, 2009. Air, Water, Food and Internet. Dubai smells like a pot of gold; shining with radiance, secretly-kept and stubbornly indefatigable. Despite being the richest emirate, Abu Dhabi is Dubai’s distant cousin. When Dubai is bracing itself to unveil the world’s tallest building, it seems Abu Dhabi is doing fitments on the 20th Floor. They don’t serve water in the room (or charge for it) and tap water is better avoided. Thirsty in the room without internet…. By the time I returned to my roo...

Tuesday, April 7, 2009. 10 Things I should have known before writing the previous blog. No Prisoners in Apartments:. Sangeetha L.L.P:. The food junkie in me is moving around like a zombie in these pious times. The goal is to find a vegetarian, cost effective and preferably Indian joint. Guess what! DD News and Sony:. Hey, I now have these two channels as well and believe me it has helped a lot. I at last had a date with Sony Serials and felt at home. Although I am a strict detracter of Varun Gand...A con...

Saturday, March 13, 2010. Gave 'Dil' to Hockey: Part 2 of 2. To Read Part 1, click here. To put things in perspective, this was the ‘Do or Die’. The game which looks zapping on the television comes in waves and Indian defense was always caught napping. The boisterous crowd became adept at clinging to the silence as and when the Indian D was raided. It was only a matter of time before Spain was up 1-0. Stated a placard while the tunes of ‘Chak De India’. Links to this post. Thursday, March 11, 2010. To ho...

Tuesday, May 20, 2008. My First Job - The Group Discussion. I had a bit tougher group (as people said) with Priyank Katiyar and Rohit Mishra in my group and ever noisome Manoj Shaw coming as a bonus. I was ranked 35th (last) in the written test and thus was in the last group in ‘Group Discussion’ and that too at Number 8 (again last). It was definitely not because of my name starting with ‘U’. 8220;Who do you think is a better actress: Aishwarya Rai or Karishma Kapoor”. Priyank wanted me to conclude firs...
