Bitmeter

By Guttu | Published: June 8, 2008

Many times you want to keep an eye on your connection. How much downloaded? or how much uploaded? or to check the amount of bandwidth consumed at an interval. There are many freewares for this and I’ll try to review some on my blog. This is the first one. If you spend a lot time being online or are deep into file sharing then this is the choice for you. Especially useful on torrents and you have limited quota per month.

Buying an Elephant

By Guttu | Published: June 7, 2008

While watching Discovery I thought of buying an Elephant. I’ve been always fascinated by elephants. And Lord Ganesh the “Elephant God”. The huge size they posses is just pleasure to watch. But I don’t like watching animals in zoo. They are at their best in wild. And so do the elephants.
Back to the topic. I was watching this documentary on elephants “Wildlife Special – Elephants”. A very nice documentary and liked it. Elephants posses some great qualities and somehow they resemble human beings. They have a huge families. If there is danger signs are passed from on group to another group. And these signals travels kilometers.
The fact that I liked was the amount of food they eat. They eat 150Kgs per day. And the next thought made me buy the elephant. With the amount of food they eat they pass gas. And that whole lot of gas. It’s 2000 liters per day.

This is methane gas. This much amount can burn for almost 10 hours. Enough to cook my food, Boil water. The increasing price of oil and gas leads me to this alternative. For my needs I’ll require only 2-3 hours of that. So you can take the rest of it. Recently 3-4 days back gas price was hiked by Rs. 50. Thats a bit too high. We have to search for an alternate.
This gives you another reason to save elephants. Save elephants and save money.

Dogbath

By Guttu | Published: June 6, 2008


If you have a dog, then this must be a familiar situation. I don’t have a dog but I’ve seen such thing happening. Dogs running around, barking, making strange sounds to avoid bath. Oh.. And I’ve seen human being species acting like that also. It’s surprising how dogs and humans acts similar on same thing.

Mindless Zombies

By Guttu | Published: June 5, 2008

“If you can’t change your mind, are you sure you have one?”

Ask this question to yourself. There are many mindless zombies around you. that’s according to the above thought. It’s very difficult to change your mind. But there are some gifted persons (like me :D), whose mind keeps on changing. It’s volatile. According to me you must posses a mind that changes.

The thoughts of yesterday are gone. you cannot implement them today. Change your mind and go according to new thoughts. There are situations when you have to take decisions against your mind. But that is a good sign. at least you are changing your mind. never mind if you are going against it.

My thoughts keep changing but still I call myself a mindless zombie. Many times i don’t know what I am doing. It just happens from me. Just like those Hollywood horror flicks where virus infection takes place and peoples turn into zombies. I’m infected. Better stay away from me. It spreads quickly.

Now who is the scientist here who’ll come to rescue from the disease?? Still unknown. It’ll not be a zombie though. I hope to control the flow of thoughts, But it’s seems to be very difficult. Not impossible though.
