Random ramblings of a harried soul


I heard of the Delhi bomblast from one of my friends and I realized I had barely been tracking the news back in India. When I finally did check it out, I realized that i had missed out on a lot.For starters, the new season of Jodi No.1 is up and though the current season is more of a rehash, I miss all the melodrama and action:P.Next up, Chennai news. The power holiday has been a topic of contention among many and I am glad I did not have to face it this time around. Power cuts for a few hours everyday in the Chennai heat is unbearable. I still remember how I had a major power cut before one of my semester exams and I was in such a mess.I ended up studying under candle-light as even the battery in the emergency light drained out. You know how all the bad things just have to happen together.

This was exactly what happened here 2 weeks back.None of us had expected a power outage here in the USA, but to our shock we had no power at our apartment complex for few hours that night. I had an assignment due the next day and my laptop was giving me trouble. I called up the Dell call centre and got it set right, but meanwhile the charge drained out and I could not contact anyone online. Finally, camped out at my neighbours' for awhile and finally the power was restored.

Now this comes as a surprise!

I never realized that I'd use the library at all since I've never made much use of it back in school or college. But out here, the library is one place I prefer to even my apartment.You actually have to be here to know what I am speaking of. In fact, I was able to get so much more work done here at the library today than I ever would have were I back at my place. And the best part is that you have lots of company. There are people who camp out at the library overnight, pack food and eat it here.Literally, they live in the library.

It is a haven for many people, including me now(surprise!).What with wireless connectivity, exhaustive books, free laptop rentals, amazing seating areas, awesome computers and a lot of people around to keep you going.

Libraries can be fun too!

And so I ramble!!

An assignment to do and a project to finish.I begin reading up. Then, take a break.Come online to check out updates in cyber space. Check gmail, yahoomail and webmail.Orkut and then some blogging.Read others' blogs.Wonder why some people never update!And then remember that it is some time since I have updated myself.Then scan sponsored posts for opportunities.Reserve, if they are available else get back to refreshing the multiple email accounts.Catch some friend online, and squander some more time.Then, remember that you don't know what is the state of affairs back home and check out India(read Chennai) news online. Bug my brother for sometime, if he is online.Update him on everything I've been upto since the last time I spoke to him,which is most probably yesterday!!Then finally realize you have work you need to get back to. Meanwhile, you are tempted to check out videos on youtube. Keep jumping videos and another hour passes. Now, you really have to get back to studying. Uh, so there I go.Rambling, as usual.

I am taking a break,after all.So forgive the incoherence.

Digital picture frames

Digital cameras, camera phones and handycams have all become a part of our daily lives these days.No vacation is complete without the mandatory coverage on the digital camera or even better, recording those lasting memories as videos.Also, there are a large number of electronic equipment these days that provide support for digital camera.Hence, it is almost impossible for us to distance ourselves from the digital revolution in this age.

digital picture frame

The digital photo frames are a big revolution in that sense. Initially, we used to browse through the photos in an album occasionally.Even the digital prints store on our computers were viewed in an unwieldy way.

Now all we have to do once we take a photo or video, is switch the memory card to the digital frame and view.In this way, we can have all our snaps strategically located in different areas of our homes, such as the living room, drawing room and even hung on walls.These frames are available in various sizes such as 7",10",12" and more.We even have the option to set the period of time for which we want the photo to be displayed and we can even indicate how the transitions between the photos should be.For more information, refer digital picture frame, the right place for latest news on this technology.
