/me on the net!

sometime last year around christmas, Jonathan Coulton released a self made video demonstrating the power of creative commons licensed work.. this entire video is made with pictures taken from Flickr, and best part is all images are free to share..

the way flickr's pictures are made to match the song is just fantastic.. each and every word matches the picture in a slide show.. a perfect goody for christmas

its been 1 year that i installed my mail server.. its been running flawlessly (it has to, its Debian..).. except for the power faliure during last year's deluge, and a ram upgrade, its continuous uptime could have been 365 days today

btw, this giant penguin is worth a look..

last year, when we had a requirement for a php/mysql programmer, i recalled that i knew Sachin, placement incharge at NIIT Chembur center.. little did i realise that NIIT Chembur center was no more an NIIT center..

Me: ***dials 2528xxxx
Receptionist: Hello KarROX technologies. How may i help you?
Me: hello.. i thought i'd called up NIIT
Me: Sorry wrong number

hmm, may be they leased out the room to KarROX, as NIIT affiliation was not getting any money.. then again last week another friend asked for a trainee, and i thought let's callup KarROX.

Me: ***dials 2528xxxx
Receptionist: Hello IIHT.
Me: hello.. KarROX?
Receptionist: Sorry sir, KarROX is no longer here.
Me: ok, thank you so much
