Idealine. Net art.

They say it is possible. Living without Microsoft.

REBOL: new file-sharing technology on the rise.

Alicebot won the Turing test contest. I’ve chatted with quite a few Alicebots, such as Cybelle, or the one on the A.I. site. But they’re not too smart, as my conversation with Iniaes reveals. Other conversations are pretty similar. I should try downloading and building my own version of an Alicebot.

Microsoft first tries to block MSN access to non-IE browsers, and then surrenders. I still can’t access their photos section through Opera.

Shame on the RIAA! Now they’re trying DoS attacks on Gnutella, etc. Can’t they realise the world has changed?

Prototype of the future. A mobile + palm.

The rejection line. Yet another completely wacky idea. Listen to their messages.

Cybergeography: the geography of the Internet.

This 404 Page Not Found error throws up the game Zork!!

I got a “Craig is ill” letter today.

I work at a fun place (search for “Having fun in India” on Google).

I finally decided to pay Namezero and buy s-anand.net for a year. No popups for a while. And now that I’ve cleared up some space by moving my reports, I’ll have to think of something different to do with my website.

The Times of India is going to make registration mandatory for its site. It’s free, but still, a pity.

The Global Corruption report.

I bought a graphic tablet. Pretty good.

Windows XP is OK.

Blogback: Remote commenting for weblogs. But I’m not interested in going the full weblog way. Wonder what the next “new new thing” is…

Make up your own urban legend.

The AC-130 Sounds like a nice plane.
