Mobi reader - Does not display images in pdf files. BookDB2 -- Cannot figure out how to read a pdf book. It supports "*.txt and *.csv".

After a long time, I am back to blogging. So many things happened.. interesting things..! My brother Justin finished his B.Sc computer Science course. Another event is his sudden interest in kung fu. He has joined kung fu classes. I am trying to create a new scripting language- Mustart (Name was suggested by justin). Mustard is "Multi Utility ScripT for Advanced and Rapid Development".

Justin has suggested the name "Mustard" (M ulti U tility S crip T for R apid A dvanced D evelopemnt) for the automation tool I am developing. It is a nice name , and I like it very much. I was supposed to give this tool today. But due to technical hiccups, I will be delaying it for one day. Since anyways, tomorrow is a holiday, I can give it on wednesday.

Created a dot net program to find out if our build (Analytics) was successfully downloaded or not. It sends email when i "test" it, but not when an actual event occurs. It is the same code. I wonder , why it is not working? It is one of those "things" for a programmer, when you are so near project completion, and there is this one bug which topples you!

W.bloggar 3.03    = it sucks

The desire to communicate ---is strong in every person. More so is the desire to get help from others. and to give help/service.

I could not make Analytics downloader work. And it makes me unhappy. I wonder why it is not working on my office machine, while it works perfectly fine at home.

I like google reader a lot. It gives so many interesting stories/facts on a lot of subjects. I hear yahoo mail has implemented the same functionality using "feeds". Somehow I like to stick with "Google".

Is knoppix the answer?

In my previous articles for Unleash.com, I've explored the process of getting graphics from CorelDRAW into a Web site. Foster suggested that it might be a good time to step back and look at the bigger picture: what does it take to actually get a Web site online? In this article, I'll outline the process in broad strokes (with a few detailed tips). In future articles, we can zero in on different aspects of the process of implementing your site. Eight Steps to Implementing a Web Site

http://www.gametutorials.com/ is the worst f***king site!! It comes first in the google seaarch. But it sucks! All they want you to do is buy their cd (on which all the tutorials are present). All that can be said about this-- it is at best a code snippet library, not a tutorial for someone keenly interested in learning game programming - not for me!! http://www.tonypa.pri.ee/tbw/flas.html is the best site. Disadvantages The tutorials are for "FLASH". You have to have Flash 5 ( an older version of flash). Advantages The tutorials are written by one person- hence there is a flow in the tutorial. It is narrative - you always have the feeling somebody is guiding you. Free- They are absolutely free! Format - The complete tutorial is available as pdf! All the source files are available in zip format. *************** I RECOMMEND THIS SITE FOR ANYBODY INTERESTED IN GAME PROGRAMMING. ******************

After failing to install linux on my home pc, I was on the look out for a compatible linux. I found a friend in "Travis North". Read to find out more.... http://www.linuxforums.org/desktop/a_linux_distribution_for_an_old_laptop.html I am an avid Linux user. Ever since I was introduced to the alternative operating system over a decade ago, it has grown from a small curiosity to a near obsession. Due to certain hobbies, I haven't entirely given up the Windows OS, but Linux has become my preferred operating system for every day tasks.I currently have three functional computers: My server (which runs Gentoo Linux), the game and MIDI desktop computer (running Windows XP) and a laptop which currently runs Windows XP. My goal is to find a Linux distribution that is appropriate for my laptop without having to remove Windows XP.My laptop has, as of late, become my primary machine for daily use. I use it for e-mail, web browsing, music and web development. To date, almost all of...

I am in search of a tool that can do offline blogging for me! I dont want to sit in office typing into blogger. An offline blogger would be great. I can type my thoughts into a word like document and the offline blogger would store a copy of it in my hard disk according to date. Then later on I can publish all the files for a certain range of dates to blogger.com

I am testing the product solidcore. During testing, we look at the logs to see what exactly happened in the application. The log we observe is tomcat.log since the produce is using tomcat. The log can become huge (around 80 to 100 Mb). I want an application which can display me this log file and refresh it every few seconds (since the log file may change every second). The app should be really fast. My brother and friend Justin suggested Python. So did a good office colleague of mine. I am going to read something more about Python and see what it can do. From the experts PyDev is a free Eclipse plug-in that transforms Eclipse into a powerful Python and Jython development environment. http://showmedo.com/videos/series?name=PyDevEclipseList Complete Install: There is a 'complete install guide' at http://www.fabioz.com/pydev/manual_101_root.html so, if you have any problems in the install, that's the place you should check (it also guides you through configuring pydev ...
