  • Jottit – wow!

    I was trying out this new service by Aaron Swartz (man, he is younger than I am) call Jottit. It offers a person a simple and easy way of getting a page online with a customized subdomain. For example, check out my page.

    It took me no time to get it up and running and adding a resume page. It features a simple wiki like formatting with the help of Markdown. Some missing features according to me are:

    1. Blog integration
    2. RSS feeds
    3. Tags
    4. Sidebar modules

    Though I agree that this might destroy the simplicity of the whole thing, but I can still wish 😉

    On a side note, happy 25th Anniversary of the 🙂

  • Sense has dawned..

    … and Indian’s have finally dropped Agarkar. In tests, his economy is good enough for one dayers and in ODIs for a T20 game. For a T20 the lesser said, the better.

    I think they have chosen a good squad this time around, though I think they should have given Sehwag another chance. Here is my squad.

    Sachin
    Sourav
    Dravid
    Yuvraj/Gambhir
    Uthappa
    Dhoni
    Harbhajan
    Powar/Chawla
    Sreesanth
    RP Singh
    Zaheer Khan

    [Depending on the pitch 4-5 bowlers]

    yeah – and reading the post, you got the same feeling abt Tendulkar some time back, and yet see how Haydos has come back (20-20 WC), and Sachin himself seems to be on the recovery trail

  • Daily WTF

    Can someone please explain as to why Agarkar and Yuvraj were bowled today, instead of Irfan Pathan?
