Recharging your Delhi Gurgaon Expressway Smart Tag!

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

I finally managed to find the proper website of the Delhi Gurgaon Expressway. It’s located here.
They have three methods to recharge your tag…
One I have already specified here: Oxicash.
The second way is using an American Express card. This is something very strange. American Express is the least popular Credit Card company in India. [...]

Google Knol is interesting

The one I have is hardly 4-5 months old. I replaced the empty cartridge with a new original one (costs Rs. 625 [...]

The Dark Knight

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Ok. Fantastic movie. But does not deserve the number 1 spot on IMDB. Heath Ledger did an excellent job playing the Joker but he does not really deserve an Oscar. Christian Bale looked like a douche bag for most part in the movie. I guess they are still working on character development. The movie was [...]

The biscuit does not feel as good as it used to and I feel very bad about that.
The company charges like Rs. 1 for each [...]
