The first link I found on Google when searching for “Moria” was Moria poetry. Now, Moria is this text-based game that I used to play until day-before. I like it. I don’t like poetry.

But the only poetry I’ve enjoyed till date is Alice’s The Mouse’s Tail.

The music industry has taken a step away from the ridiculous. Now, on pressplay.com, you can download and burn songs on a CD for a fee. (The big deal is that, earlier, you could only stream and listen. For a fee.)

The Internet Archive has archived my page as of Aug 2001. The site hasn’t changed much since then.
The stock market falls when the Parliament is in session. Particularly if the Budget is discussed. Personally, I would attribute it to investor over-optimism. I don’t see how the politicians take bad decisions more than half the time, because in that case, we’re better off without them. Hmm…
China, which anyway has the largest mobile user base, has now beaten Japan to the second largest PC and Web base in the world. Wonder how they do it.
Project Gutenberg explains some proposed changes in answer to a question on Slashdot.
IBM acquires PwC Consulting. Or what would’ve been Monday. For $3.5 bn. I heard somewhere that the stock price of acquiring companies typically fall after such announcements. IBM’s didn’t. Does that mean they got PwC at a low price? Given that HP once refused them at $18 bn, maybe…
Since I was updating this site from home as well as office, I completely muddled up versions. I think I’ve lost a few days’ work – at least in the archives. Something like Blogger does help.
Here’s a good business model. Buy a free e-mail provider. Add spam. Then charge for eliminating spam. Good thing I got rid of my Hotmail account.
Some people have too many mousepads.
