Having a dynamic page that loads most of your needed content all in the same page is definitely the new hot thing in website development. Ever since AJAX has hit the box, most web services are trying to reface their websites and services with this new technology. With Yahoo India in the Ajax pipeline, how could Rediffmail stay behind? One of India’s premiere mail services, Rediff a few days back launched its beta version based on AJAX and XML.

I am sure this might just be a long old story for the tech geeks, as it’s been in news for quite some time now with all the laurels to its name. But I have not seen any review on net over this change. It’s been accepted happily by Rediff Users, may be with a few complains that have gone unheard and users who are trying to adjust themselves to this change. This post gives an insight to some of the features that rediff left behind in framing its new AJAX based version.

‘Lightning fast web mail service’ is how they identify themselves. (more…)

Soon after BC Sutta hit the World Wide Web… I remember it was the new anthem of my college hostel… Released Underground it never hit the celluloid. Those guys sure did mind the BC and MC stuff. But Sutta fans kept its spirit up and kicking. A smash hit at teen gatherings, college fests, Sutta was a song that today’s teen could easily relate to… I remember even girls in my college recorded their own BC Sutta! :)

Composed by Skip(lead of Zeest), BC Sutta is his 4-5 year old raw composition which probably reflects his own life. He says:

“I was in college and used to live hand-to-mouth. It’s a situation almost every boy faces when he wants to change his life, though it might be a quick, ridiculous, rebellious change. At that time, I used to smoke with my friends, and when my father came to know that I had been smoking, he often used to say BC sutta peeta hai in lafango (wastrels) ke saath. BC sutta – a catchy phrase that struck my mind and quickly became a joke among my friends. So in the end, I got something to write about, which could portray my own life, though in a satirical manner.”

After a hit in the underground circuit, Skip is now planning to release a censored version to appeal to the mainstream. Explicit words like BC and MC have been replaced in such a way that the charm of the song does not fade away. In this new version the sound quality of the music also has been improved. This version has come up after a huge demand from music channels and record labels. As Skip reveals the truth, his parents still don’t know about the song BC Sutta…. Hehe. They have probably heard only the censored version and know that their son has done something big in the music industry! Hmm smart kid! ;)

Well I just can’t wait to hear the new version hit the market. News is that the Zeest Band is gearing up for their new album launch. Best of Luck guys! Hope you continue making good music!

Let the new version be for my Mom and Dad to enjoy, I sure like it this way only:

BC Sutta… Mujhe Sutta Na Mila, BC Sutta… Sutta Na Mila…!!!

Finished ogling over the photos? See I can read your mind! :) Who can’t, when you have photos of an oomphatic news reader right on your otherwise hebetudinous monitor screen, there is nothing else that can be on your mind! There is no second thought on why she shouldn’t be the highest paid French News Reader! Her photos speak for themselves.

Guys take your time…. I can wait over for my time for a say…. ;)

In recent times, blogs have been in much controversy… I am sure not many bloggers would like to see their blogs being blocked! Wondering what it has to do with Mimoh? Aah… I was just checking out my pal Deep‘s Blog, a reputed blogger, and stumbled upon this post – Hamara Mimoh. Hmmm… after the recent bans on blogs, I didn’t want to see Deep’s blog ending up in a ban if at all Mithun Da had any sort of ‘Political Contacts’. ;) So I thought of helping Mithun Da with his son Mimoh’s makeover. :)

The sure thing this guy needs, is a decent haircut. So I logged on to www.makeoversolutions.com, chose a few hair styles, worked them out in photoshop, and this is what our new bollywood HER[O] Mimoh looks like!
