A Thanks for the ban!!!

ஆயிரம் நன்றிகள் - இந்திய அரசுக்கு!!! (and to the ISP's as well : ISP - ஜை தமிழில் எப்படி மொழிபெயர்ப்பது என்ரு தெரியவில்லை)

Found 'Tor' and 'FoxyProxy' because of the ban on reaching blogspot.com, so i could see my own blog! (let me be very clear, am most worried about accessing my own blog rather than being interested on viewing the controversial blogs, which caused the govt. to issue such a ban)!


Tor & Foxyproxy - the combo is such a beauty to work with!
Great way to proxy!
Awesome!

Am Elated

blogspot.com blogs blocked by indian isp's

From Yesterday onwards, the blogspot.com domain is no more accessable : Thanks to the indian government and the Indian ISP's.
Now i've to find ways / another blog server to move my posts.

Sigh! why does the govt. want to do that???!!!
What is going to be achived by this blockade?
Is this a mistaken move by the ISP's - blocking the whole domain instead of blocking a certain special blogs?

How long will it take for these blocked blogs to reappear in different servers, across the www?
How can this extra terrestrial intelligent prevent using public proxy servers to access the banned domains?
Is it not in the human nature, such regimentation will lead to finding ways to bypass these limitations (which could be more intimidating!!!)

Buliding dams over the www? eh?!!
Nonsense!

Intelligent Babu's!!!
Foolish moves!!

When will this blockade be over?

Realisations...

After i started to blog in both tamil and english, i realise how much rustic and clumsy my grasp on tamil, has become.
What the heck, i can't fluently think in tamil and it dawned upon me that the de-facto language my thoughts are concieved are in English!
mmm, now, dunno if that is good or bad.
(for the curious question of how this realisation dawned upon me out of the blues - well, if you think fluently, you can pen fluently and since i was trying to pen my thoughts in tamil, i realised how clumsy i've become!!!)
Simple!

But i certainly realise one thing .... it is time to brush up my basics on the linguistics front.

செந்திலுக்கு ப்ரமோஷன்


:) செந்திலுக்கு ப்ரமோஷன் கிடைக்கப் போகிறது.
இன்றோ-நாளையோ அப்பாவாகப் போகின்றான்.
இருவருக்கும், ஓரு நாள் இடைவெளியில் திருமணம். And more similarities.
(எனக்கும் கிடைத்திருக்க வேண்டும் - ப்ரமோஷன்!!! ஆனால், இறைவனின் சித்தம் வேறு விதமாக உள்ளது. But anyways, it is not
something i would regret. He has already blessed me again. என்ன, இன்னும் ஒரு ஏழு மாதம் காத்திருக்க வேண்டும்.
அவ்வளவுதான்) ;)

First tamil post


இது என் முதல் தமிழ் வலைப் பதிப்பு. தமிழில் என் வலைப் பதிப்புகளை வடிப்பதற்க்கு நான் உபயோகித்து வந்த w.bloggar மூலம்
இயலாததால், புதிதாக zoundry blog writer என்ற மென்பொருளை பயன்படுத்த வேண்டியாயிற்று.
But it just feels Awesome at the end of the exercise!!!!
வார்த்தைகளில் விவரிக்க முடியாத உணர்ச்சி.
ஒரு இனம் புரியாத மகிழ்ச்சி. :) ஏதோ கிடைத்தர்க்கு அரிய பொருள் கிடைத்தாற்ப்போல்!!!

Another curious coincidence??!!

I found this visitor, having bumped on to my blog and out of curiosity i visited back his blog.

To my surprise, this blog turned out to be full of internal conversations and thoughts that runs on one's mind. like as if, providing an interface to one's mind.
In particular i enjoyed this post ... "From Absolute to Relative **". and for a moment, that sounded like reading myself - my own thoughts.
and what more curious was that, thought sequences i've had within myself, but never could put on the web was out there!!!

This exactly would be how i would have put to pen, of the thoughts and conversations with myself.
Any possible connections?


PS : Oh, here's more to his blogs:
Mystery of Existance
Pre-Blog Writings
Transdual View
Society & Ecology
Design

Co-Incidence

A Quote i got in my mailbox today, exactly capturing my frame of mind in its present state.
Call it co-incidence. :)

"Strive for perfection in everything. Take the best that exists and make it better. If it doesn't exist, create it. Accept nothing nearly right or good enough."

Henry Royce (1863-1933)
English industrialist, co-founder of Rolls-Royce

Showdown

Quite a Day! Quite a Day!
Arguments, Issues, Confrontations, Firings, Survey, Meetings et al.
Too much action for one single day!

Lost my temper, Was damn so angry, skipped lunch and finally met with FT to reach some conclusion.
I Wish i could be more expressive on this but, well, i'll stop with this!
