Pramblings :Praveen's Ramblings
http://praveen.xcuze.com/category/pramblings
Archive for the ‘ Pramblings ’ Category. Moving to www.pramblings.in. It’s been a long-time idea of mine to get a domain name (a www.yourname.com) for myself; my identity on the web, my own domain! After debating for long, I’ve finally gone ahead and bought a domain name all for myself…. That’s short for Praveen’s Ramblings… It’s probably a lot easier to remember than praveen.xcuze.com, for sure! So, here’s to an awesome new domain name! And his domain and hosting service at iTauro.com. And every other D...

G.I. Joe again!!! :Praveen's Ramblings
http://praveen.xcuze.com/gi-joe-again
Posted by Praveen Premchandran. I was watching some videos on youtube today, when suddenly this video caught my eye. And I was flooded with memories of watching G.I. Joe on Doordarshan. And later, on Cartoon Network. I could say that although the cartoon series was very American, it instilled in me, a very passionate feeling towards the uniformed folk! My mom often chides me that when I was very small, I used to salute policemen that went by… Maybe that respect came from watching this series. Comment by ...

Archive for the ‘ Rants ’ Category. Rant: Indian food is not just Curry! Wow, I really can’t help but just stop shouting my lungs out to everyone in the world that thinks all Indian (that’s East Indian for you Canadian folks) food is curry. If there is one word in the English language was not more inappropriately used, it’s Curry. Is a generic description used throughout European and American culture to describe a general variety of spiced dishes, best known in Asian cuisines. But one gets so used to it ...

Geekdom :Praveen's Ramblings
http://praveen.xcuze.com/category/geekdom
Archive for the ‘ Geekdom ’ Category. Testing out a remote blogging via BlogDesk. I was reading Jeba’s blog. As usual and I saw he was trying out some new ways of blog writing, and he finally hit upon. Anyways, I guess I have all the more reason to blog more frequently now. Time for a skills upgrade. Not that I mind being called one. It’s just that I pale in comparison to what real geeks can work around with. But that doesn’t stop my from trying my hand at stuff. And its as amazing as P2L, and is more or...

2010 July :Praveen's Ramblings
http://praveen.xcuze.com/2010/07
Archive for July, 2010. Food-for-thought: If only life were as easy as Ctrl Z. Anyone that has used Computer/Software (especially Word Processing software such as MS Word) long enough ought to know that Ctrl Z is the short cut to undo last action. Press the two keys together and the World no longer knows that you tried to do that you just undid. That got me thinking… Imagine having a Ctrl Z in real life. Now THAT would be totally radical! 8220; And this wise crack. Thanks, Stalin Sathithatan.

Time for a skills upgrade :Praveen's Ramblings
http://praveen.xcuze.com/time-for-a-skills-upgrade
Time for a skills upgrade. Posted by Praveen Premchandran. I have always classified myself as a part-time geek, one who can do stuff, but just the basics, such as fix buggy computers and stuff. Of course, I find that among “ordinary folk” (no offence intended) I am a full-blown geek when all I can do is look stuff up online and help fix their computers. And I have been stuck with that burden ever since. P2L, as its fondly called, is one of the most amazing resources of tutorials I have ever seen online!
