Quantum of Solace

Monday, June 30th, 2008

I have to admit that Quantum of Solace is looking really good…

Better quality link

TinEye search engine

Monday, June 30th, 2008

I got into the beta and checked it out. It actually works for images I know are going to be hosted at multiple locations. And it works rather fast! Impressive.

Michael Clayton

I liked this movie. Was slow paced. Somewhat predictable. Very believable. George Clooney is awesome.

Nizamuddin Railway Station

Sunday, June 29th, 2008

Dudes at this railway station have stopped giving out platform tickets!
If you are caught inside the station without a ‘train ticket’ you have to pay a fine of Rs. 260.

Airtel and Vodafone both accepting Apple iPhone 3G bookings

Friday, June 27th, 2008

Airtel and Vodafone seem to be playing a funny game with Indian customers.
None of these two companies have revealed the prices or launch date for the iPhone.
Airtel became the first one to allow customers to get some details through a SMS service.
Vodafone then became the first company to accept bookings for the iPhone.

Mama’s Boy

Friday, June 27th, 2008

This movie is very annoying and somewhat funny. You want to kick someone hardly at the end because you spent two hours of your life watching this movie. Diane Keaton and Jeff Daniels are both cool though.

Meu Nome Não é Johnny

My name isn’t Johnny

I liked this movie. Felt very bollywoodish. I guess a remake would be in development right now somewhere in Mumbai!
