Anuhas in action....

Getting old...

When I was a kid, making it to the next birthday was a great thing for me. Its not because, of the party and the loads of gifts I am going to get on the birthday. In fact our family didn't follow that tradition.

What made me happy on every birthday was the fact that I have become one year older. The feeling of becoming a grown up creates loads of thought in your mind. Most of them were pleasant ones. Being able to do things that adults do was one of my dreams. That always created a charm in my mind.
When I am becoming an adult I have lost this enthusiasm . Instead I want to slow my aging.
But that could not be achieve.

2009..............
It has been a significant year in my life. The year started with settling in a new place with my wife Sajani. We got married last October and moved in to a new apartment. Settling down to new life was bit harder. But that was something you can avoid doing. Sajani was reading for her Chartered exams and we were busy with arranging our new home.

During the month of February I lost one few people who loved me a lot. My Grandmother who have been looking after me since my birth passed away in February. She was one person that inspired me a lot. I wanted to write about my grandmother in this even when she was alive. But due to some mysterious reason even still the words doesn't come on to mu fingertips.

withing the sorrows of the loss of my grandmother, one happy news came to us. A new comer has sared its journey to com in to our life. This helped us to overcome the loss of our grandmother. Being the first grand child of my parents the hopes of the whole family came towards this going to come new comer.

After 38 weeks, Sajani gave birth to our son. We have decided to name him Anuhas. The selection of the other name is till undergoing. I have looked after babies in my life. My career started from my little brother. I was 11 when he was born. Since then I had the chance to look after, feed, make him sleep him. I watched him crawl, walk and play. Now he is studying for the advanced levels and does lot of things that we were not even thought of at his age. It was an unmatchable experience to watch a baby grow.

From the birth of Anuhas, the same story stated in my life. This time with bigger responsibilities.
It has been 5 days since, but these five day have given me the stress, happy, fear and joy of my whole life.

When I watch him sleep I feel that I have gotten old. The Oldness that I always yearned to experience when I am a kid. Which was not that charming.......

YouTube, Picasa, Flickr, and Yelp previews in gmail.....

Link in your mails...... Oooh!! Once again we have to wait till the page loads. New window? New tab? always confuses the mind.
When it is a link to your Picasa or Fickr upload... you always find how to make the readers click on this link.
This is something I always came across when sending my Picasa links to my friends.
Most of the time people do not have time (or rather the need :p) to click on this extra link. Specially when its something like an image or in worst case a video.

If there is a way to let them see the video or the image linked to the mail within the mail itself. That is something I have looked for a long time.

Google labs have done it!!!
YouTube, Picasa, Flickr, and Yelp previews in the gmail enables you to see previews of photos, videos, and reviews right in your email instead of just links.

I have tested this feature in my mails in the following browsers;

1. Firefox 3.0.7
2. Google Chrome 1.0.154.48
3. Opera 9.64
4. Internet Explorer 7.0.6001
5. Internet Explorer 8.0.6001
6. Safari 4

Out of this only safari did not supported this feature.
