Tendulkar wants fans to react with responsibility and balance! My foot!
http://cricket.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/t20articleshow/4668306.cms
Tendulkar said he was disappointed with India’s failed title defence but at the same time felt the fans back home needed to show more “responsibility and balance” in their reaction.
“I feel there is very high emotions among the people when they react. But do these reactions help us to play better? Not really. These actually put more pressure on the players. We have got to be mature and be with the team,” Tendulkar said.
Dude since we have high emotions attached with this game, you and your ilk are so rich! Look at players of other sports. We are emotional? Hell yeah we are! you win, we’ll make you god, you lose, we’ll burn your effigies! We are like that. Take it or leave it! You have been playing for 20years, you should know better by now! Don’t teach us how to be good fans, learn to play better cricket!
Spinners rule in Twenty20
Watching India vs West Indies match right now and Yusuf Pathan just got the wicket of dangerous Chris Gayle. India has two more spinners in side - Harbhajan and Pragyan Ojha. Ojha has already won the match against Bangladesh. IPL has proved that spinners are a key in T20. All the spinners, even part timers like Rohit Sharma and Yuvraj were getting bucket leads of wickets in the second edition of IPL. Yuvraj even managed to get a couple of hat tricks! I was watching the highlights of the Aus-Pak T20 encounter that happened in Dubai just before the start of this tournament and even in that match Shahid Afirid - another spinner - was named man of the match.
Guess rein of the spinners is coming back in cricket and that too in the most bang bang version of the game
I am addicted to Twitter

Election 2009 results - my views
Well I had voted for BJP and I am disappointed that the candidate I had voted for lost, but I am happy that Left will not be a part of the government this time and that we will have a stable government for next 5 years.
The primary reason I voted for BJP was that I didn’t want a government with the support of Left parties. If Congress had not got the majority on its own then they would have had to take left’s support. The commies would have dragged country further back! I am glad that the commies have been handed a crushing defeat and Congress is in the position to form the government without their support.
Its also a big slap on the faces of opportunists like Lalu, Mulayam, Jayalalitha, Mayawati and Nitish. Good now the country won’t have to deal with blackmailers like Karat and Mulayam!
Mr Advani, now its time for you to retire. Let Mr Modi take over and let him build us his base for the elections of 2014.
Mr Manmohan, now that you have been given license to kill, go for it. Take the country ahead. Left won’t be there to pull you back!
At the end of the day democracy wins!
Jai Ho!
Is Due On blog launched
Launched a blog for Is Due On - http://blog.isdueon.com/
Also made some UI enhancements and added an option to specify a type/category for the due item. Items can now be specified as eitehr payable, receivable or an important date. Payable and receivable items will be treated specially in the coming days. One big bang feature is going to be account predictor.
Is Due On is slowly getting some traction. It has been reviewed on Plauggd.in. Trying to get it featured on more blogs/sites soon.
Is Due On - Freakin simple bill tracker!
Today I launched a new web application - Is Due On - Freakin’ simple bill tracker and due date reminder!
Is Due On is a web based service where you can keep a track of your bills and it will send you reminders when they are due. Never ever forget to pay that bill on time!
This is how it works - you register and add unlimited bills or items. You specify a due date for each bill/item and put an amount. Is Due On will start sending you reminders through email 3 days prior to the due date. When the bill is paid, you can simply remove it by clicking on a link in the email or you can reschedule it for next month or next year by simply clicking on another link in the email. That’s where the freakin simple part comes in.
You can keep a track of your credit card bills, mobile and other utilities bills, insurance premium, loan EMI, rent, interest, subscription expiry, prescription refill, birthdays, anniversaries and almost any other important date on Is Due On.
You might ask why do I need Is Due On to remind me to pay my bills? There are tons of other services that I can use! Sure you can use your mobile to keep track of bills and reminders, you can also use some online calendar tools for the same - but the difference is they all are task managers - not bill managers. Advantage of Is Due On is its simplicity. It’s dead simple! You just add a bill, set the amount and the due date and you are done. Is Due On is different then other task manager/to do list manager software in the way that it is meant for one specific type of task - paying the bills. It understands the money part of that activity that other generalized task manager/to do list manager tools can’t. You also get to see a list of all your upcoming bills in a simple list. Just bills and nothing else.
What is released today is the free version of the service. A premium version of the service is also under works. It will add more functionality to the system in the form of SMS reminders, customized reminder schedule, a history report of your bills and more.
If you have ever forgotten to pay any bill by due date then Is Due On is something you must check out.
Vote! Show all the finger!
I cast my vote early in the morning. Me, my mom and dad. Bijal (my wife) will be going later in the day. Although I and my dad voted for different candidates. We did exercise our fundamental right granted to us by the democracy.
And this time they are marking (very appropriately) the middle finger to show off to all who do not vote! 
Go vote now. Show the finger to all!
