A proper internet connection appears to have resumed today in our hostel. Almost half a month of limited internet through phone was a pain. Writing down a post wasn’t really possible with javascripts getting timed out on the edge connection.
We missed coverage of several big events that made news during this time. Some of them being:
TED is a revolutionary show that features talks by amazing people. Talks about genius ideas, ideas that bear the potential to change the world. The thrilling potential of sixth sense by Pranav Mistry talk is one perfect example of what TED aims for. TEDx is a new program created by TED. This lets people organize such talks independently and bring TED like ideas to the everyone. TEDxHitechcity is a independent self-organized program to share a TED like experience. Spread the word.

Everyone has started to shift to Chrome. Last few months Chrome made enormous moves on the global browser market share. It slid past Safari a few days back. Now Chrome is the number 3. With Firefox 4.0 deadlines pushed forward, I expect 3.6 to cheer us up with the speed.
I expect a new trim down version of Firefox now. I await for the final version of Firefox 3.6 to release and force me to shift back to it. Sorry, you’ll have to go on diet Firefox. Revamp the interface to really breezy and light feel on version 4.0. Cheers!
