Sorry People forgot to give you URL of the Products and Technologies talked in the blog

Samsung Smart Phone

Motorola Mpx200

Microsoft Web Services

Hello Everyone,

i hope every one had the best of christmas with family and friends. It was a very special day for me as it gave me an opportunity to see all of my family together and happy.

I dont know when i will get another chance to see my family like this. I hope everyone around the world will be still is festive spirit and celebrating each inching ending hours of the year.

I dont know about others but i plan to celebrate New Year EVE with my family.

Anyway there is still some days to it and some pending work to complete. This is a problem you will face when you work for an indian company that is you dont get the last week of the year as off. The Project which i am working on currently is really getting interesting with new ideas i am getting.

I am looking towards Web Services for fair integration into the project.Beside this nothing special. I was browsing the web for CD-MP3 Portable Player. I went to Cnet.com and read some reviews. I RIVER is a really cool product and not so expensive.Its Under 300 AUD which is pretty much in my budget. While on transit in Singapore i hope to pick up one which is even cheaper. As you enter Singapore Electronic MARKET (SIM LIM SQUARE) the first feel you get is damnit i hope my credit card company does not come running back for the money i am going to spend.

My mate picked up a laptop in Australia for 3000 AUD X1000 series Compaq same one in Singapore was for 2200 AUD. One Day when i will have unlimited money to spend then i will take a holy visit to this heaven and fulfill all my dreams.

Hey while i was writting this Blog i just bumped into new Motorola Microsoft Smart Phone which is a PDA cum Camera Phone Motorola MPx200 is a one good thing which is getting added to my wish list. why is it there well though its competition Samsung I PH 500 is a damn one PDA cum phone which one wants but the price for an item is more than my budget and as you people know with my blog everyday a new item is added to wish list.

With Ce.Net platform comming in i will advice people to wait before they jump into the temptation of buying a smart phone . As i have not seen any new smart phone working on the latest platform and just people like me which earlier went into temptation of buying the first and the best Camera Phone on the block (NOKIA 7650 of which i am proud) are sitting dumped with its 4096 colors and comming in of all new 65,000 color phones.

WAIT WAIT and WAIT!!!! that will be the key to success and elemination of products of my wish list.

ENJOY PEOPLE ENJOY

Hi fella's,

sorry for not writting for so many days. I have been really busy packing up my life around me as time for going back to australia is comming near. I am so much involved on "Router's" and working on "E-RFP engine" project that i am not getting any time for me and my family.

I have been working on an XML based framework for the E-RFP engine which will be done in such a manner so that once the project is complete adding up of features and removal of features wont be a problem. This is the first time i am proposing use of XML at such a large scale.

VXML based application processing is another thing on the card and using RTMP(real Time messaging Protocol) with FLASH MX Communication Server. This will lead to creation of a never seen Messaging Application for the market and immediate deployment. I m ready to share more information of Communication Server and RTMP on request of blog reader's.

I have question's for all readers should i write more about IMAP4 in next comming up blogs or more on RTMP,VXML and use of FLASH COMMUNICATION SERVER. Do inform.

catch ya friends waiting for reply

Hello sunshine,

today i spent whole day revising subnetting which i learnt for CCNA some time ago and the major part was spent visiting different CAR Audio Showroom around New Delhi and damn it was a real shock to see such a large difference in price from one joint to another.

After going through the vast range of systems on display, i narrowed down on the 3 brands

i) JVC
ii) Pioneer
iii) Blaupunkt

These brands were selected based on the following criteria

i) PRICE (Major Factor)
ii)Quality (Reputation from people who conduct WAR'S of STERO's)
iii)WARRANTY ( REPLACEMENT)

Price did play a big role in narrowing down on different models from these companies, as more the flashier or graphic equalizer (BLAH BLAH!!! TECH TERMS USED in AUDIO INDUSTRY )system you want more expensive they become.

I was clear as far one thing was concern, pay extra 100$ but get a CD MP3 Player which will last longer as this is the technology of the PRESENT i will not say future for now. Rather than price of system it was the vast collection of MP3's collected from various sources which were motivating me toward purchase of MP3 CD Player for my CAR. My CAR (HONDA CITY 1.5 EXI) is my favourite baby and the SUZUKI WAGON-R is the latest kid in the family need a system each.

It was a clear decision that need not spend more than 350$ per car in any case and a combined limit cannot be used for manipulation purposes. Very well!!!!!

So price being a factor narrow for a joint to depend down narrowed down on a corner of defence colony flyover in lajpat nagar. After goin thru various shown got down to JVC SYSTEM with BLAUPUNKT Speakers.

JVC SYSTEM with REMOTE CONTROL - 250$

BLAUPUNKT SPEAKER SYSTEM - 100$

DAMN was a hard decision. Need to get hold of SHIKHAR RAI and his HARD DISK need songs all movies he dumped from fast connection in AUSTRALIA.

RAI wait till i get my hands on you.

CATCH YA FRIENDS BYE for TODAY

Hello everyone,

i am very sorry for going missing from last 2 days could not help it. I had a friend from Bombay visiting me in New Delhi.He is a really good guy and we have spend a good time during University time.

It was a kind of re-union for everyone here in india. We had a blast of the time. Specially being away from New Delhi for last 1 year. Me and my friend got lost driving around the well architected Central Delhi. As dammnit it all looks the same. Finally after 2 hrs of going around we finally reached our destination with a definate Rs 2000 fine comming our way for number of red lights jumped and one way entered.

Finally end of the day had a rollercoaster of the day specially with body crying for SLEEP at 2:00 AM in the night where MIND was asking for MORE. Today again had been summoned by friends but i am struck with project and cant leave the desk.

Today i have been working on finding information on Indian Vedic Moon sign based astrology system and had found out if there is a good site available which provide a mixture of FREE SERVICES and proffesionally guided CONSULTATION SERVICES. The site would do wonders with the most profit making and unorganized sector on the block. Based on the information i have gathered i plan to make a presentation for the Corporate Board and ask them to give it in for temptation for starting up this Idea. To ensure this gets a boost i have already shooted an e-mail to the right people and booked a domain name astrologicalhelp.com with a small template got designed by the E-DESIGN TEAM.

Thinks look good and friends wait for few days and the site will start to show up. I have 100% confidence in this project and another project of mine www.admissionhelp.com Its a great idea and there is nothing existing like it in whole of South Asia and with right direction and mixture of information . Sucess is going to touch in.

Another thing i would like to share. Beinga good hindu i found a good site on hinduism hindunet.org which i would like to share with everyone.

I am in a rush and rest assure tommorow a new post will come

Good Day Mate's,

I was waiting for this moment since yesterday and whole night i was thinking about various activities which i will do and share with my friends on this page but to my disappointment it was not all possible due to tremendous pressure at work side due to new projects comming in the organization.

Whole day was spended looking into my good old friend XML. The new project which has come in will give an opportunity to use my mind on better use of XML for a simple thing which could have been done using defined ASP coding.

.NET Web Services has already shown me some light and tonite's homework on the internet will be to find more information on SOAP. Beside my usual work going on towards Router managment application with help of my study of CCNA.

If things go well and way the projects have started i am 100% sure my project team will come out with best performance my organization could expect from any team.

As i have done most of my higher education abroad(out of my home country INDIA) the level of expectancy i think so which i carry is more from graduates as i have all my life listerned to big praises about indian Engineering Programs and Masters in Computer Science Program but to my regret people which have gone through them have turned out to be totally of no use to the Small and Medium size Software development corporation as the level of pressure financially and work is really high in the organization and there is no period like learning period given to these kind of people making it really hard for them to adjust to rapidly changing Technologies.

I will not blame any individual for that but only education department in india which should have an organization which could standarize courseware which could be taught at all goverment owned institutes or atleast set a minimum standard for these courses being run to be updated.Till date this kind of thing is not done students with course done from local neighbourhood computer education center will be preffered over students who have done Bachelors or Masters In computer Science from reputed universties in india.

Another thing just to get people's mind off the little topic 8910i is the best phone in the market now from NOKIA. But if in yor country 3G is available do give them a chance as they are the phones of the future.

I will be soon doing my review on all smart phones in market and get back to you all

Have a good night
