Well … we were hearing rumors for a long time. It was called GBuy, Google Buy and a whole other bunch of names. Finally a rival to PayPal is launched as Google Checkout (Google says there is no rivalry, but be serious now ).
It seems like a great e-commerce system … easy interface … […]

This review may be a little unpopular. I was …. ummm …. “underwhelmed” by Superman Returns.
I really wanted to link this movie … I swear! I’d been reading every single review for the last two weeks … watching the trailor again & again … and even got first day, first show tickets.
And the reviews were […]

I can’t explain it.
I’ve been feeling out of sorts lately. For the last 4-5 days, I’ve been kinda blue, not all that cheerful … and I’m definitely losing my charm!

Monday morning was embarrassing. My two dear […]

My sis Richa was here last week … and I had a ball taking a forced vacation to hang out with her. But alas, she had to finally go home. So, friday morning, I dropped her off to the airport as she took her flight home.
But.
Her visit was not without some surprises
The day before her […]

My dear friend Tracy is getting married today! So, I wrote for her a little poem that you might want to hear …
This day is special,
As we all know
For many months in anticipation,
I’ve seen you glow
And your love’s journey,
Has finally come true
As I see a big “HAPPILY EVER AFTER”,
On that halo over you …
Yeah yeah, […]
