ME : the confused blogger

It’s 3 am, early morning and it’s raining outside. I have a cup of coffee on my table.

Hmmm … na ..   I was just trying to make this blog post sound normal,  which it is definitely not. This is a confused post from a confused blogger.

Confusion Number One : What type of blog is this ?

Surprised ? Yes, I am confused to the bottom ! What type of a blog is this ? Is this a personal blog ? If  the answer is yes, what happened to my “personal” posts ? No updates about where I am, what I am up to these days .. etc etc …   then how can you call this a personal blog ?.

Okay, then .. is this a tech blog ? oops …. no … posting some links about news you find online doesn’t make this a tech blog .. right ? and yes, archives are full of personal posts and ramblings …

Now, help me, dear friend .. on your books, is this a personal blog or a tech blog ?

Confusion Number Two : What Happened to my comments ?

I have nothing more to say about this .. check the number of comments on few recent posts here .. and then take a look at the archives here … see posts with 25, and 50 comments ?

Something is terribly wrong here .. and I have no idea what it is !! Help me !!

Did I confused you too ? I am sorry ….. GOOD !!

Live Android Logo

Android is smarter than we thought. It was created for cellphones. Then we figured out that it will work on Laptops and netbooks too. Now, read this.

MIPS Technologies, a company which designs processors for various home entertainment devices, says it is working with partners to design Android-based platforms for set-top boxes, digital TVs, mobile Internet devices, and home media players. The company expects Android-powered digital picture frames to come to market later this year, followed by digital TVs and set-top boxes in 2010.  ( source )

So, that’s news indeed. We are going to see android running on digital photo frames, PDAs, and even TV set top boxes !! Well, I’m confused again … Chrome OS … Android for mobile .. and then android for laptops, and then they said chrome os on smart phones, now this. Where are we going ? Do you have any clue ?

Taste some “WINE”

Hmm … thinking what I am up to ? okay, I had the same confusion when I found news  ” Wine 1.4 released” etc on digg.com. After that confusion, I read ….. WINE is an opensource project for Linux operating systems, which will help you run Windows applications on your Linux computer. Awesome !!

I did install WINE on my Linuxed laptop, and tried to install Chrome on it. However, it did not work since the Google Chrome file for this was not available for download for some reason. It gave me a “404 not found” error. But, I can use notepad and few other applications on Linux now.

I do not know much about WINE at the moment. However, I will try to use it more in coming days, and let you all know my experience. If you need more info on WINE,  jump to following pages.

1.  Winehq.org
2. Wine, from “All About Linux
3. Wine, how to on Lifehacker.
