: Nothing 'but' Net Roam :

Jus' happened to read the following article [via :'Joel'] ..

'Incrementalists' are realists. They have a pretty good idea of what is achievable given a problem to solve, a product to ship. They're intimately aware of how many resources are available, where the political landscape is at any given moment, and they know who knows what. They tend to know all the secrets and they like to be recognized for that fact.

'Completionists' are dreamers. They have a very good idea of how to solve a given problem and that answer is SOLVE IT RIGHT. Their mantra is, "If you're going to spend the time to solve a problem, solve it in a manner that you aren't going to be solving it AGAIN in three months."

Email is never ever ever never ever the right way to resolve controversy. Don't waste your time solving problems in email... stand up... walk down the hall... and look the person in the eye. You'll live longer.

Read fully @ "Incrementalists versus Completionists" and the comments.

Nothing but from 'Net' humor : So much humors, cartoons, etc.. about 'Bush' as like our Great 'Lallo Yadav' .. Why is it so ?? .. Lallo is famous in Indian media .. Bush is famous in international media and web .. Check-it out one sample I read somewhere .. George Bush's doctor said : "Mr President, I am your doctor; I am sorry to inform you that you have a problem in your brain. Your brain has two parts, one Left and one right. The left part has nothing "right" in it, and the right part has nothing "left" in it.." Check-out the 'Dancing Bush' @@ ..

: Nothing but 'Net' News :

DVD/Digital Video Recorder :

It's just a single device, Panasonic's new DVD recorder/digital video recorder with a 400 GB hard drive should give people a small taste of where things are headed. The amount of storage available is reaching the point that it's almost not worth thinking about. This device, for example, can record 709 hours of video (nearly 30 straight days of continuous video).

It also has broad connectivity, letting people program it via the internet and mobile phones and letting people access content stored on it the same way. While bandwidth is still an issue, it becomes less and less of an issue over time, and suddenly we get closer to a world where you can access all your content, anywhere at any time.

How your eyes read news By Cory Doctorow

Researchers with the Eyetrack III project used software-controlled cameras to follow the eyes of readers who were perusing news websites, in order to determine the topology of attention.

Do You Click Randomly On Websites ?

In a new study about web-use behavior, one of the more interesting findings was that people tend to click a lot on websites -- and they're not talking about links. People just click within a website. While the snippet linked here doesn't suggest a reason why, I definitely do this, so I can at least explain my thought process.

Read in detail here.

Somewhere read .. Jus' b'coz my dear friend mailed about me jus' that "appo dipo bhava.. !"

...

People want belief, and Buddha said... his last message to the world was "appo dipo bhava; be a light unto yourself". He had said this because his disciples were crying. Ten thousand sannyasins surrounding him... of course they were sad, and tears were falling; their master was leaving. And Buddha said to them, "Don't cry. Why are you crying?"

One of the disciples, Ananda, said, "Because you are leaving us, because you were our only hope, because we had hoped and hoped long that it isthrough you we will attain to truth."

It was to answer Ananda that Buddha said, "Don't be worried about that. I cannot give you truth; nobody else can give it to you, it is nottransferable. But you can attain it on your own. Be a light unto yourself".

Check out the 'Database File System', a completely different interface for your files, implemented in KDE. There is actually a request for developers to join a project to implement this under GNOME and leave how we use the desktop today behind. Any try ??

A GMail-based blog With 1000 MB of entries

"Gallina" is a GMail blog tool created by Jonathan Hernandez that uses GMail messages as "entries" (so 1000 MB of entries!!), replies to conversations are the "entry comments", uses Libgmailer ('gmail-lite' project) to connect to GMail. It uses XML/XSLT and by the way it's a GPL software.

Work space quality references from Joel on Software

Someone posted a nice summary of links to information about the quality of workspace provided to software developers. "Perhaps it can be useful to other software developers in a position to influence managers or may someday be in a position to make decisions about workspace design themselves."

VoIP Has the Whole Industry Talking

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is projected to account for over 12% of all telephony revenues by 2009, according to Juniper Research.

The total market value for services using VoIP is forecast to grow almost ten fold over the next five years. In other words, VoIP will be at the center of convergence.

Although much attention has been paid to the more complex and "sexy" value-added services like video-on-demand (VOD) and online games, the biggest opportunity will be in voice services as broadband IP-voice takes over from traditional circuit-switched voice; driven by lower operating costs and competition between incumbents and new licensed operators.

Uploaded few 'Kovil' snaps to 'fotopages' .. nice one from Machi's Digi ..! Initially, the site thrown some database exception ... @last now it uploaded properly ..
