I came across this article on DIGG
A real good piece of advice for last minute exam crammers like me
. If you’re a student attending classes, you have probably experienced many moments when it was hard to make yourself settle down and study, even when an important exam was coming up.
If you’re like most students, you put off studying until the very last minute. The night before the exam, you’ll stay up all night cramming, getting little or no sleep. In the morning, you’ll drag yourself out of bed, psych yourself up with lots of coffee and some cigarettes, and go into the exam feeling exhausted, drained and jittery all at the same time. You’ll find it hard to focus or think, and you’ll be cursing yourself for not starting to study sooner.

The blog shows us how software really is getting it wrong — from both the user’s and the developer’s perspectives. Click me to go to this blog. Here’s an example of the content (fake screen shot) that you will come across on the site -

Those of you who aren’t from India might not find this post the least bit interesting but we bike starved Indians will definitely enjoy the presence of super bikes. I was getting fed up of looking at 150cc puny crotch rockets when I saw these bikes parked at the MESCOE campus. Pix clicked by my friend amit.

This is a really different kind of blog that I came across. It contains all different kinds of generators like name generator, anagram generator, bitch letter generator etc. The list goes on… Most of all, I really liked the intro of the site -
This blog is not about those machines used to change mechanical energy into electrical energy. It’s about software that creates software. Software to play around and have fun with.

Today were the western region finals of the campus rock idols that takes place annually. Bands from different campuses compete against each other for a shot at the title. This years function saw the participation of bands like Brute Force, Nemesis, Raging Hormones (wid a female drummer), Black Hole Theory etc. and a special appearance by Zero. It wasn’t very crowded in the morning as compared to the evening. One thing I noticed this year was that the crowd was a lot better than last year.
