Most desirable ladies list

Its surprising to see that some of the well known name don’t feature in this list.

I thought Emmanuelle Chriqui was wonderful in Entourage. I think people like her for her character in the tv show more than for her face. There are many women more beautiful than Emmanuelle Chriqui, but her role as a desirable girl friend goes a long way in putting her on top of the list.

I am also not surprised to see Padma who has become a huge star since her hosting the top chef series. She really looks beautiful and like to eat, what more can a guy want.

Supermodels Padma Lakshmi and Lakshmi Menon have beaten Indian actresses Aishwarya Rai and Freida Pinto in a most desirable women poll conducted by a portal.

Windows 3.1 runs in a browser

How far have we come, an operating that used to run on a computer, now can be run as a app in browser over the web.

Its works really well. Some of UI elements look so out of date now a days.

How will we look back at our current operating systems in future. Will we think Snow Leopard and Windows 7 were at their UI best when we look back.

Rumour Roundup the Apple Tablet

A nice place to find and read all the rumors of apple tablet. You can see what features are being predicted.

Its an interesting look at the rumors, if apple releases just a bigger iphone there will be a lot of disappointment. From all the rumors and patents they have applied for in the recent months. It looks like Apple’s tablet will be something special.

As always it be way costly and i will try to get one after a year or so. Which is when it will probably land in India.

By the way iPhone 3GS has not yet launched in India.

Dogs senses Earthquake Before its too late

Nature has figured out a way to sense earth quakes six seconds earlier and we still can’t predict them.

If ever you wondered about whether animals can sense earthquakes before they hit, heres video proof that might confirm the theory.

The best part about the is that the dog searches for its owner before trying to escape itself. I wonder how many humans would have done the same.

A few seconds later, the camera shakes as the quake rocks the building. The shot then shows drawers sliding out and debris dropping from the ceiling as people run from the room.

Sophie did a lap around the room trying to find her owner. They both made it out of the building safely.

Movie 3 Idiots crosses 315 Crores

Movie 3 Idiots crosses 315 Crores in just 19 days. And it is the first movie to do so in Bollywood film history. A movie that’s totally worth all the accolades at least the idea in the movie, if not the story itself.

I wish Reliance, which is the company which produced the movie would set up a group of colleges or camps that preach their idea in reality. It would make all this success even more impressive. And also give Anil ambani a leg up on Mukesh ambani, who is planning to setup a big university in India soon.

It has achieved what no Bollywood movie before it has done. Raj Kumar Hirani directed movie 3 Idiots starring actor Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Boman Irani, Sharman Joshi and Madhavan has become the first movie in the history of Bollywood to cross the 300 Crore mark. 3 Idiots has grossed in Rs 315 crores globally in the 19 days since its release.
