One less thing to worry…
From my Computer Graphics TA All, Because of good performance in the course so far, you are exempted from taking the finals and will still get an A in the course. (Of course, you are welcome to take the exam if you enjoy finals). Sincerely, Sid. Woo hoo!

Yahoo India SMS
At first when I saw this my reaction was ‘huh’ (can they afford to do this?). Then it was ‘wow’ it would be cool if they did that. Finally when I found yesterday that my account had been upgraded to their RC (Release Candidate version), I couldn’t help but try sending an SMS and guess [...]

Hyderabad Weather and musings
A friend complained on Orkut that I have stopped blogging. Maybe not, but then the frequency is definitely down. What do people talk about when they have nothing to talk about?
