I’ve been a huge fan of redbus.in ever since I first used their site back in 2007. For someone as lazy as me, the idea that I could sit on my ass, check for all available tickets & book them at the comfort of my air-conditioned room was pretty awesome. Didn’t hurt that they had a very nice, clutter free UI. Off late, they have been sending these long-weekend emails.

Happy New Year! While I’m working on year-2011-in-review post, here’s a spam that I have being receiving quite a lot.

I know this quiz is old,but wth.

If you’re a regular reader ( and not reading this in a feed reader) you would have obviously noted a change in appearance of my blog. - It’s been a while since I last refreshed my blog . My World had been running on the absolutely gorgeous (well, IMO anyways) SoDelicious2 theme. I even had a mini “contest” to decide who would get the spots for the gallery links. So why the change then ?

I’m not sure how exactly this conversation came about but @prolificd casually tweeted me, asking me If I’d heard of savemylanguage.org I replied no, and checked it - and it turned out to be an awesome site. Its got quite a lot of articles, a wordlist of Konkani words in Devnagiri script, with meanings in English, and also an English To Konkani and Konkani to English translator. Unfortunately the translator didn’t quite work, even for a relatively simple ‘how are you doing’ phrase.

I’ve finally done it. Been contemplating it for a while, but past couple of days’ turn of events have made me do what I’ve been contemplating about. What am I writing about? My tumblelog of course! I get lots, I mean LOTS of email forwards. Those subscribed to my forwards mailing list would say I send lots of forwards. But then I forward only the best of the lot, and that’s like maybe 10% of what I get.

If you’re a HUGE fan of Top Gear(like I am), then you must be well aware of statements like the one below Now how about reading more these facts, huh? Just head over to TamedRacingDriver.com Alternatively, you can also bookmark this post, and everytime you come here, you will be presented with a new, random Stig fact!

Ever think you’re a weird person? Want to know how weird you are? I found this site while surfing, and according to it, My score is: 89 Of all the weird test takers: 76% are more weird, 9% are just as weird, and 14% are more normal than you! So 76% are more weird than me? COOL! 9% are just as weird? Hmm So I guess I'm a relatively "non-weird" person eh?

Well yesterday twitter was buzzing about rumours of a PageRank update yesterday, and voila! It did happen! My World, which was PR0 till now jumped up to PR3. My Linux blog, Sathya Says, also gets increment to PR4 from PR3.
