Guys !!! The gold edition of EA Sports FIFA10 is soon to be launched. I’m eagerly anticipating new cool features in this version of FIFA.

I still remember those days when i was in summer vacation after 10th board exam… for the first time i grabbed an original FIFA 04 copy from my friend rajit. He taught me how to play at that time. Then started my passion for this game and it still runs on my blood. I bet now i can beat you rajit. What ya say!!!!

Then started my quest to excel the virtual game of football and I’m still bubbling with enthu when i get to know that FIFA 10 is coming out soon.

Last year i got myself a copy of that game on 5th October and till date i play that game as often as possible.

FIFA 10 this year has brought few new concepts which they do every year after getting feedback from the community

This release features are

1.Physical Play Freedom

2. 360 Dribbling

3.Skilled Dribbling

Ill soon post a teaser of FIFA 10 before its launch

 

All of you must have come to know about the Texas based district court judge’s decision about the interim halt of selling Microsoft word as a result of Open Source Software Violation, that seemed so obvious but it took so long to spot it. Kudos to the people who figured it out.

For those who aren’t aware of that make a note from here.

OK. That was prologue. It seems just another day at Microsoft Office. But it ain’t.  It’s cataclysmic. It’s like you just hit the panic button. You might ask stopping the sale of an application..What’s the big deal in it. If So… Read On

The Argument On Behalf of Microsoft is

“Nevermind 2012, according to Micorosoft there's a good chance that a Texas district court judge's recent decision could very well cause civilization as we know it to crumble in a few short weeks.
It all starts with Microsoft's need to redesign Word to remove the code which violates i4i's XML patent. "The money! The beautiful, beautiful money!" an entirely fictitious spokesperson stated. "There's no way we could ever recoup it. It's not like we're a massively profitable company with overwhelming shares of operating system of office software markets or something."
But there's something much more horrifying to consider here than Microsoft losing a few million dollars. It's just the first domino to fall in the series.
Next comes the cataclysmic damage to vendors like Dell, HP, and Best Buy - all of whom would have to immediately re-tool as a result. That means hours and hours of meetings - which also means lost productivity and increased stress levels.
The associated disruption of sales in an uncertain economy? It's not hard to see where this could end up. Increased joblessness. The new unemployed would no doubt turn on the justice system, and lead to waves of rioting, looting, and lawlessness.
Before you know it, the United States is a desert wasteland and we're all driving around in school buses fighting off zombie attacks. After the US, the world quickly becomes a dull, withered husk.
So please - for the sake of humanity - grant the stay.”

 

 

A Delighted Independence Day Wishes To All Those Indians Home and Abroad.

Make Us Proud

 

In an attempt to impact of Google Earth into the sensitive area of India, such as DMZ etc. ISRO launched ‘bhuvan’ meaning earth. This software or more appropriately an Web Application is in its beta stage and the information aren’t too detailed. To access this web app you can follow this link to bhuvan website. Its mandatory to create an account to access this web application. It also requires you to install an add-on terraexplorer from skyline which is a approx. 11 mb download. Installation is breezy and you get going within minutes. Thats all folks..Not Much to tell rather to be experienced in this case. Remember its in beta stage so do not expect too much.

Have fun exploring India.

Rest of the details have been stripped of for you to explore.
