I am watching Timothy Olyphant movies these days. His accent is pretty cool.

Star Cricket?

Tuesday, August 28th, 2007

If ESPN-Star Sports were to show the match on both ESPN and Star Cricket, why launch Star Cricket at all? I guess it’s coz of the language options. I find it hard to believe that we would have a situation where three events are running side by side and they are broadcasting all of them [...]

MPlayer can run BIN CUE files!

Open Source Awesomeness. Can Windows Media Player do that? Or Apple QuickTime?

YouTube Spam

Monday, August 27th, 2007

You are given this link which looks like it is on YouTube. But it points to an IP address which lures you into downloading an exe file.
Now, should [...]

OMG… Flickr what have you done?

Monday, August 27th, 2007

They have removed PayPal as one of the options to pay for the Pro account! I had absolutely no idea that they would do this!
Damn it.
