Another Geek Post, But I Am Aorry Flipboard Is Too Awesome

Okay guys, I tried to stop posting techhy things here. I am doing enough of it here. But, I won’t get sleep without posting this one at least today. This picture is my wallpaper now.

This thing makes me feel like, hmm .. I should get an iPad soon. ( So, if there is anyone getting ready to buy me a gift, you know what to buy )

Now, here is the deal. Flipboard is an iPad app which will present your social media content in a magazine format. Watch the video to know how it looks like, and once you are done, tell me if you feel like getting an iPad :)

I have no idea when they are planning to release it in India, the iPad that is,  and how much it is going to cost, but iPad looks like a good deal to me. Anyone else planning to buy one ? Can I borrow the money please ? :D

What if you get an extra hour everyday ?

Do you feel 24 hours a day is not enough for you to live life to the fullest ? Do you feel bad when it’s the end of theday, because there is a lot more to do, but no time left ? say yes, and continue reading ..

What if God give you an extra hour everyday ? What will you do with that extra hour ? Study ? Play ? Browse ? Dance ? Hang Out with friends ? Watch movie or TV ? Read books ?

Since I asked this question, I am supposed to have my share of the answer too. So, here goes .. I will sleep !! hmm, yea, that’s kinda weird, I know, but that’s I would love to do, if God give me another hour today. ( and that should be the reason why he is not giving me that extra hour … seriously..  may be God consider sleeping as wasting of time ? LOL )

What’s your answer ?

The incomplete me

Yes, the incomplete me because, I don’t read enough books these days. “These days” can be defined as “last 3 years”.

When I was in college, I used to read 3 – 5 books a week plus lot of magazines from College library and our village library. I always had a book with me, even while having my food. Just like how you look for your favorite brands in a supermarket, I searched for books by my favorite authors and tried to finish them one by one, – one author at time !!

So what happened to my reading habit ? It was a gradual change. It all started when I got my first job. When  I started working, I did night shifts most of the time. I enjoyed night shifts, and my teammates enjoyed me doing night shifts !! So when you do night shift, you need to sleep during the day time right ? Well, I used to sleep the entire day !! and slowly, my reading habit died !!
