• Sony’s new 8.0 Megapixel and 10x optical Superzoom Camera the Sony Cybershot DSC-H10 for Rs. 15,990

Have been waiting to get myself a good camera with loads of features. This one looks interesting but need to wait for sometime to know the feedback. Definitely worth watching.

Also the 21 Megapixel Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III.

• Zenith’s new Smartstyle PC - A look alike of the Apple iMac with prices starting from Rs. 20,000

No where near Apple’s iMac in terms of styling or attention to detail. The price though is quite low, wouldn’t try it. At least after having worked on a new iMac (at office). Prefer to wait till the prices of iMac come down. Will definitely try getting one.

How does it feel like to spend a day without using any technology or gadget. Sounds exciting. It goes without saying that technology and gadgets have found their way in our lives. Many, I believe, would actually dread even thinking about not being able to use technology for a day. Think of all those whose day starts with an SMS, a phone call, television, music etc.

What would happen if there is one day where no one actually uses any technology or gadget? How many of us have even thought of spending a day without them? At least in my case I haven’t thought about it yet. But I will try spending one day without them. To start I can try avoiding the following:

• My computer (possible)
• Internet (possible)
• Radio (possible)
• Television (possible)
• Fan (possible)
• Lights (tough, but can be tried)

What do you think?

Who doesn’t like a new refreshing design? Especially if it is something to do with information heavy sites. Here are a few of them which I like for the way they present the information. Some of the websites have gone in for the design makeover recently and some long ago. Feel free to point out more such redesigned websites. I am all eyes for it.

Non-Windows Operating System From Microsoft!

While the battle between Yahoo and Microsoft gets hotter with the former trying to wage a proxy war to acquire the latter, Microsoft has put forth its Non-Windows Operating System codenamed Singularity. The project is an attempt by Microsoft to build a more reliable and robust operating system from scratch putting to use all the advances in programming languages, compilers and system level programming. Still in its early stages there isn’t any commitment yet from Microsoft on any commercialisation plans or status of Singularity.
