Some interesting websites
Here are some websites which I found in the course of surfing web in the past one month or so. These are listed in no specific order. Also, the only criteria for their inclusion was that I liked them. Please note that I am not publicizing for them.
- malevole - Programming Language Inventor or Serial Killer? ---> Try guessing who was/is a programming master, and who a killer just by their photographs. You'll realize, looks can be deceptive. So, dikhaave pe mat jao, apni akal lagao :)
- Things People Said: Courtroom Quotations ---> Quotations taken from official court records across the nation(I guess US.....its fun nevertheless), showing how funny and embarrassing it is that recorders operate at all times in courts of law, so that even the slightest inadvertence is preserved for posterity.
- LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD? ---> This is really amusing. See it and you'll know why. Great flash work done.
- automatic complaint-letter generator ---> This is an amazing piece of work. Need to write a complaint letter about any person or organization. This is the best spot to get your work done. Do try it. And read the letter generated.
- Water on Mars ---> This is a photograph which aptly puts an end to all debate whether there is water on Mars....Check it out!!!
- When you absolutely have to get off the phone ---> You desperately want to get off the phone but can't think of a new reason. Rush to this website and get the most amazing reasons. Great work......
- Dont Click It ---> Yo people.....we are all addicted to clicking. The mouse phenomena has swept over the entire world. Visit this website to get a feel of it :)
- Day of birth ---> How much do you know about the day you were born. It is a guarantee you wont be knowing as much as this site will tell you. Some really interesting facts about the day u breathed first.
- Snowflakes ---> Check this page out. And see for yourself what wonderful things can you create.
- Trivia Challenge ---> Try the trivia challenge 2007 and see for yourself where you stand amongst quizzers round the world.
- Olympics ---> No....not a gaming site. It is a flash animation enough to tickle your funny bone.
- Not Your IP - Browse the web without a trace --->The name says it all. Just incase you need to browse the web anonymously, so that no one could record your ip, this is just the website for you.
- Interesting facts ---> You thought you knew your facts right. You just can't miss visiting this website. Some truly amazing facts which you might never have got to know otherwise.
Ofcourse you need to thank me for giving you such wonderful links. For that you need to leave your comments. That will give me an inspiration to search for more such links. It has been late into the night now. So keeping in mind my NSO class, which is slated to be held early in the morning, I sign off........

The WEEK
eh......Realization dawns on me. Now I realize why it is difficult to keep your blog updated. But anyways, I am back.
After a hectic week of exams, I always thought that this week would be "peace"......but the fact betrayed me in no time. With gymkhana elections coming up(and me contesting for one of the posts), it seems no respite will be on offer in the next few weeks. Append to it "Manzar", the literary fest to be organized by "Awaz", and the magnitude of harassment(for want of a better word) becomes quite evident. My determination to visit the gym keeps getting washed away because of something or the other. On Thursday, this session with seniors of Nehru Hall added onto the burden. They all advised us to go for some project or try getting internships(for summers). I don't say that it isn't lucrative or that I don't want to go for it, the problem is that for getting any sort of such project/internship, i'll have to start fighting from now. This only adds to the already huge workload.
Not to forget, the Manufacturing Processes(manpro) viva which we had on Thursday. If there could be anything more treacherous than Chemistry, it has to be manpro. Not as a subject, its pretty interesting infact when it comes to handling machines. But the way questions are asked, and the way grades are awarded(would better not discuss about this), turn this subject to a just-another-subject. Of course Physics viva held today, added to the misery. I was supposed to give a viva on Compound Pendulum, but by the end of the session, I found myself having answered everything other than stuff related to my experiment. Strange are the whims of the M.Tech instructors who ask us those questions. Just imagine, you go thinking all about restoring forces only to find that all the questions asked to you are related to partial differentiation. phew!!!!
At last this week is coming to an end. But not before I have another NSO class tomorrow. I never thought that playing a game(Lawn Tennis in this case) would become cumbersome. Actually its not the fault of the game itself, its the timing of the class. Morning 7. Now think......ME and 7 am......they don't match at all. That too on a Saturday dawn. Just pray that I can wake up at the right time for the class. Signing off for now. It turned out to be a decent long post.
