Long Time No Write…

It has been a very long time that I haven’t posted about the goings on in my life. I suppose, those of you who have me on your FaceBook might know, or maybe not. More than anything else, this blog is a place for me to rant once in a while, and sometimes I think it is a [...]

AVATAR

So last friday, mom calls me from office and says “Wanna go see Avatar?” “Sure”, I say, “if we can get a ticket!” So, we got the ticket and off we went. 3 hours and 30 minutes later, we emerged from the movie theater. Post the smiles on peoples’ faces, post the applause that the [...]

Am I A Geek Now?

And no, this hasn’t gotten anything to do with the fact that the app is named ‘GeekTool’! LOL Brace yourself, this is a long story! But it’s got some nice pics and links, promise!

Just downloaded and am trying out this really fascinating thingamajig called Windows Live Writer! A godsend for me – a person who blogs almost everywhere at all times using Word and has no idea how the final product will look like…and then after I upload it, I do some 3 rounds of edits…. And the [...]

How to make your Windows XP look like a Mac

So, am I turning into a techie? Ye Gads! No! But I would like to add my 2 cents to all those people out there who are looking (just like I was) for a better way to convert the looks of Windows XP (SP3) so that it looks like a Mac. The best way is [...]

My Website Re-vamped!

As an annual custom, my website, www.madhavighare.com has been subjected to a re-vamping session – the look and feel, and of course, the content has been changed. As such, I did not have very many complaints with the previous look of the website – because it was a CSS Table-less format. But that time when [...]

Murphy’s Law

I salute you Mr. Murphy, especially when you said this: ‘Everything that can go wrong, will go wrong’! You are truly one heck of a wise man! Well, the past few weeks have been an absolute depiction of this particular law of Mr. Murphy’s. Everything that could go wrong, actually did. The thing is, it [...]
