Positive side effects of being ill

Its been two weeks since I got back and am still to fully recover from the fever and cold. I still have a sore throat and been a little slow with work. I still have a few mails left that I need to reply back to. If I have not replied back to you I am sorry and will do it as soon as I can. Thats the apology and now coming back to the post, there has been one really positive side effect of the trip. In the two weeks I was there I had loads of salads and after getting back have not been able to eat much food either. I have lost a few pounds of weight that I have so desperately been trying to get rid of. If nothing else I had some healthy food (the veggies that I normally tend to skip) that my body so desperately needed.

Its not the best way to loose weight but who am I to complain. I just hope I don't end up putting back the weight this winter. I am planning to follow a little exercise regime but thats still a plan and am still not sure if I will be able to follow up with it. The other good or bad thing that has happened since I returned back is that I have not bothered to shave. I have a two week old stubble and I plan to keep it up for a month or till I don't start feeling all weird.

I had met some interesting people on my trip and have still not got back to anyone so far, not like anyone would be expecting me to get back. But still I think its good to stay in touch with a few interesting people.

Coming back to work I have not done even a single thing in the last one month. Everything that I started has been hanging in a limbo. My TODO list seems to be growing with each passing day. The first thing I really want is a new look and feel for the blog and my website. But lets see if I can do something in the coming holidays.

The best mobile development platform for hobbyist programmer

This is something I have been thinking for a while so here it goes. This is a list of platforms I know of and my choice of what makes sense for a hobbyist programmer like me. Let me first list down all the possible platforms and then list down the pros and cons that I feel are associated with each platform. Java ME (The platform formally known as J2ME) Windows Mobile Linux Palm Brew Symbian Blackberry iPhone iPhone Let me start with iPhone the darling of the media and blogger's till about a fortnight. I had real expectations from iPhone as a platform but the way its been going so far I would never bother developing for it. Officially there is no SDK with which one can build applications. What ever tools the community had built have been rendered useless with the iPhone 1.1.1 software upgrade . The community might be able to hack a version for 1.1.1 but without any support from almighty apple its just a cat and mouse game. With every minor release the applications

Airtel 16Mbps for Impatient Ones

This advert can be the summed as the best in terms of making fun of the impatient ones. The new Airtel broadband is 16 Mbps but with a slight hitch. At Rs. 2999/- with a Data Transfer Limit of just 20 GB. Just listening to a few hours of music videos on Youtube should be enough to exhaust the limit in no time. Thinking of downloading torrents is something one should not even think about. Not sure who Airtel is targeting with this plan. If you bought this plan do leave a comment.
