Bloglines blog.

I am fed up of using email for forwarding links to the good articles that I step on when going through my bloglines subscriptions. So I have started a link/clip blog on bloglines for publishing links with just a click. Have linked to it from the sidebar [Some Interesting Recent Reads].

SUV safety

Before you think of buying a SUV read this and google SUV safety if you are not convinced enough. I stumbled upon this from some blog but don't remember which..pretty funny how companies still manage to sell them. Probably SUVs should also come with a statutory warning!

Laptop upgrade.

Bragging time again :) I now have a very good laptop at my disposal. Its Thinkpad T41p which the team acquired some 2-3 months back. I tried out the "braces for impact" technology immediately by banging and shaking it :) The options property sheet for this feature has a "Real-time Status" pane that shows a graphic laptop which shakes when you physically shake/bang the machine and a status message is updated to tell you if the hard disk is ON or stopped. In addition this thing also has 1G RAM and a 60 GB HD, battery life of 4 hrs and a combo drive.

Da Vinci Code

I finished reading The Da Vinci Code this morning. Nice piece of fiction which builds on some facts. Comparable in its raciness to a Robert Ludlum novel. Raises a lot of controversy about the actual roots of Christianity and those that have been projected by the church. Why am I writing this though..everybody probably knows about it by now :) Those who haven't read it should.
