@vinodunny I swear, opened up TweetDeck to agree with you. But saw http://bit.ly/ToFwx Now thats the power of #FOSS It cannot belong to 1 in reply to vinodunny #
@vinodunny contrast this http://bit.ly/ToFwx with#Microsoft world where you have leaked letters, no open letters #
#Tweety extension for #Google #Wave is not showing the replied to person (i.e. @twitter-user) #
#Tweety on #Google #Wave not updating tweets. I'm on #Firefox 3.5.1 on Fedora 11 #Linux. Gears is enabled. #
Was able to run #Google #Chrome web browser on #Fedora 11 #Linux without #Wine or #Crossover following this blog http://tinyurl.com/myu56l #

test3 #
Trying #Google #Wave sandbox on the native #Linux build of #Chrome web browser on #Fedora 11 #
#Google #Wave extension #Tweety seems to update the tweets only for the very first time after supplying the #Twitter credentials #Bug #
test5 #
@vinodunny I understand. This incident has shaken up your confidence in OSS in reply to vinodunny #
Watching #LoveAajKal despite bad reviews by @juhib #
@jyotibhargava Welcome! Happy tweeting! #

No surprise #Airtel #Broadband phone calls to upgrade speed @ reduced price, do no mention about reduced price for ur current plan #
Just got the #Google #Wave sandbox account credentials #
@aseemsood on my way. ETA 10 mins in reply to aseemsood #
#Google #Wave gave 2 accounts shekhar & shekhar-test. Logged into both accts using diff. Linux users on same machine to test conversation #
Browsing the #Google #Wave sandbox using #Android phone shows up a warning that the browser is not supported. Proceeding anyways … #
#Google #Wave sandbox http://www.wavesandbox.com is down. I didn't do anything. I wasn't even in town when it happened #
#Google #Wave is back again. Resumed playing …. #
#Google #Wave site down was a false alarm. It happens at times when I refresh the browser while logged in. #
#Google #Wave on #Android. Can see messages as they r typed. But starting a new wave & adding users etc. is a pain, doesn't seem to work. #
#Google #Wave add-ons : http://wave-samples-gallery.appspot.com/ #robots #gadgets #embed #
This tweet comes from #Google #Wave #Twitter extension called Tweety! #

Got a #Google #Wave invite. For developer sandbox access. Need to check this out asap. These days existing & pending work is so killing me #
After my last tweet, I'm thinking that I must wind up and hand over a couple of projects where I'm spending hard but not smart time. #
@sharat_j why don't u take over my pending work so that I concentrate on the Wave in reply to sharat_j #
@aseemsood don't have hopes. Its called a developer sandbox. So not sure if we will see full wave experience in reply to aseemsood #
Following #Google #Wave invite, filled up a form & they will mail me credentials in a few days Would get a @wavesandbox.com email. #
@sharat_j when? in reply to sharat_j #
RT @androinica SugarSync Mobile now available for Android: Sharpcast announced http://bit.ly/9LC13 #

Ok the jam was due to huge water logging. Now drving smooth. Thanks @kbhargava and @VineetBhatnagar for keeping me entertained #

Wao, a #MySQL database of size 47GB (indexes included) took about 9 hrs! to restore back fom the dump.Intel Xeon 2.3GHz 8GB RAM #
@vinodunny nafrat pyaar kee pehlee seere hai in reply to vinodunny #
@bineshkutty coincidently I had #Sbarro today. Liked it coz I was hungry else nothing matches #SliceOfItaly. I'm not a foodie, so try urself in reply to bineshkutty #
@bineshkutty also @vinodunny & I used to have #Sbarro pizzas for lunches sponsored by #Microsoft during HT project. Yea I'm a namakharam #
I'm not a foodie @bineshkutty. The greatest foodie in the gang is @kbhargava. Over to him for #sliceofitaly vs #sbarro in reply to bineshkutty #
@bineshkutty lol. sahi hai sir. Limelight! in reply to bineshkutty #
@bineshkutty yet to reply, at that time Hyper-V was more a myth than it is now. So I did not aspire to run on mythical virtual machines. in reply to bineshkutty #
@bineshkutty see u talk about food and there pops up yet another foodie @aseemsood. His claim to fame is #nirulas omlette burger #
Oh I think I mistook #sliceofitaly for #italiano. @aseemsood, @sharat_j @kbhargava which one u used to order in the sainik farms branch? #
I'm off this foodie discussion. Not my area. Bbye #

@achitnis hehehe. this question is being asked all over e.g. http://tinyurl.com/ns3d9p windows update? ? #firefox #eu #microsoft #ie in reply to achitnis #
@achtinis Or perhaps #Win7 #EU should atleast bundle #Wget for Windows http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/wget.htm #Microsoft #
How to download an alternative web browser like #Firefox on #Win7 (E or N editions) without #IE http://tinyurl.com/l3vwxz #
What's up with #Microsoft #XBox updates http://bit.ly/16VEiQ #
More on how to install alternate web browser on #Microsoft #Win7 #EU edition http://tinyurl.com/ktsv4l. Read para 3 and 5 #
@aseemsood pardon my ignorance too. How can it render HTML without the IE rendering engine! Remember IETab which u used to use? in reply to aseemsood #
ahha, just read this: http://tinyurl.com/lhk6ar and #Twitter indeed had cut off spam accounts as I said http://tinyurl.com/mhnwng #
@aseemsood how was the movie #Luck? in reply to aseemsood #
@bineshkutty is it related to "todo" ? in reply to bineshkutty #
@vinodunny http://tinyurl.com/mqopzz Conv. based on subject instead of message-id. I suffix "solved" (say) & conv. breaks? #Outlook2010 in reply to vinodunny #

RT @pankaj_shukla @kbhargava tempting pic & fabulous photography sir . http://short.to/kqeo #
@kbhargava Appreciate ur morals on tweeting else u would have said the obvious reg. @pankaj_shukla's temptation rather than "khane ka irada" in reply to kbhargava #
@pankaj_shukla palne ka ? oh u will wait for the bird to turn 16? in reply to pankaj_shukla #
@pankaj_shukla ur innocence is touching. I'm crying rt now at my "innocent target". See the link sent by @bineshkutty in reply to pankaj_shukla #

http://tinyurl.com/n5u9q8 #Microsoft open sourced coz of need & not 2 open source. As I & @vinodunny discussed. #Hyper-V #Linux #GPL #
http://tinyurl.com/n5u9q8 @hanrahat This is what I meant. The reasons to #GPL #HyperV were out of compulsion and not choice. #
#Microsoft #Azure #MySQL #Cloud-Computing http://bit.ly/sfTVd #
Try #Google #Suggest (type ahead search) for your name (full name). Also, after search, see if the first few results are indeed urs. Enjoy! #
Finally #Firefox 3.5.1 #security update is available through #Fedora 11 repository. "yum update firefox" #
Watching http://tinyurl.com/nhtcmz with #Moonlight 1.9.5 plugin, #Firefox 1.5, on #Fedora 11 #Linux. Running smooth! @vinodunny #Microsoft #
Seems some major user accounts clean up on #Twitter. Most with unblocked updates will notice reduction in the no. of followers. #
when I came back to my #Fedora laptop, I saw this http://twitpic.com/bfijz , a message left by @aseemsood #Ubuntu #

RT: @aseemsood: @shekharg I have started enjoying using #Linux command line for doing stuff. It offers great flexibility and power. #
Typical attitude: #Hindi #Comics, eeks. #Tintin, #Archie #Batman r hep. Do read once Super Commando #Dhruva, #Raj comics. sensible fiction. #
Super Commando #Dhruva does not have any super powers. He is all rounder circus artist & can talk to animals being in circus #Hindi #Comics #
#Dhruva is analytical and rational. He defeated his enemy Dr. Virus using the process of Pasteurization. #Hindi #Comics #
#Dhruva's enemies are intellects and use magnetic, sound, light and astronomy to do crime. He uses their science against them #Hindi #Comics #
RT: @google: RT @youtube #YouTube in 3D: Tag your 3D video w/ yt3d:enable=true to unlock easier viewing options: http://bit.ly/79loD #
#Fedora (I guess its #HAL) says my laptop's battery may be old or broken! coz I booted after a full battery drain out. #
New stable version (1.2) of #OpenWebAnalytics (#OWA) released. It's my favorite analytics tool 4 #Wordpress but didnt work after 2.8 upgrade #
RT @juhib #swineflu in 3 #gurgaon schools. 3 cases in shri ram aravali. school closed-building, buses being sanitized. #
@vinodunny I have been using the #GMail task editor for more than a year without any pain, whatsoever. I guess @bineshkutty also uses it? in reply to vinodunny #
@vinodunny ur hate against Non-MS is scary. Guess one day u will drag-n-drop me just coz I'm powered by God and not by Windows #
@vinodunny I agree. Perhaps that makes it occupy less screen estate (devoted to mail). in reply to vinodunny #
@vinodunny sorry no info architect required. They will "ribbon" the gmail in reply to vinodunny #
@vinodunny u really believe in this IDC article? Or just posted it for fun. It's so far fetched. in reply to vinodunny #
#samba #ads. While trying "net join ads …" I get "failed to lookup DC info for domain 'xxx' over rpc: The connection was refused" Help? #

Hon. Dr. #Kalam frisked: I think all VIP and VVIP should be frisked for security. Its unfortunate that it started with a honest man instead. #
#Kalam #frisked there had been politicians who cancelled trips. But Dr. Kalam did not get offended. So no hype. It must happen to anyone. #
@VineetBhatnagar tune into #timesnow news channel now for more on #kalam #frisked in reply to VineetBhatnagar #
#microsoft bowed to #gpl to enhance #linux guest on #windows host and not windows guest on linux host. #hyper-v #
#solar #eclipse: longest of the century: 6 min and 39 sec. Next total eclipse after 123 years #
#Microsoft not to blame. It is #Novell http://short.to/kahs #GPL #Linux #Hyper-V #

@sharat_j @kbhargava no tv channel showing bhopal. Is it that bad? #tse22 #
@hanrahat yes but those enhancements open sourced or released under GPL for other distros and OSS community? in reply to hanrahat #
