New Seven Wonders & Taj Mahal

Oh my god! Save me from mails..

Nowadays, I was recieving umpteen fwds a week which was motivating an Indian to vote for Taj Mahal which is currently in 14 th rank. Couple of weeks before, when I received the first mail, i thought of voting for Taj Mahal, went to new7wonders website. The website asks me to register before voting. I was bored and left the website without voting. Later, I realised this is absolutely dump to select wonder by voting like this and it does not reflect the true wonder of the world.

One, The person who visited all the listed wonders, was only capable of selecting the wonder. Other people, 99% support their favorite wonder, basically its by geography/culture.

Two, SMS/register to vote. This is completely stupid. As there is all possibility for one to make multiple votes.

Three, Voting for Taj Mahal, Wait.. Are you sure of the history of Taj Mahal? do you know, Taj mahal is a vedic temple and its not built by Shah Jahan.(try Google search). Even the history was unsure then.. how can I vote? Its hard to believe what we learned. (Pluto is not a planet.)

Fourth, This is just a media hype. Lets think future of this poll. The tickets of this world renown show were all booked and it seems there was a great profit for the organisation/country conducting poll. This will leads to another Poll and every year, there would be a poll for New Seven wonders, conducted by different countries. (is it another olympics?)

Fifth, Another suggestion for great corporate giants, They too can create their own poll and anounce the results for "Google's Seven Wonders of World", "Yahoo Seven Wonders of World", "Orkut Seven Wonders of World" etc.

Finally, I never felt voting to Taj or any other wonder. I doesn't mean that they are not wonders. The truth was, I have not visited any of them and I was not able to compare them. To me, this Life is the biggest wonder.

The Cheat Sheet (TCS)

What is a Cheat Sheet? A cheat sheet is a single sheet of reference that gives details in very high level. It is often used as a programmer's quick reference of functions. Creating the cheat sheet is the best way of learning and it would be very helpful for preparing exams as well. For sample reference of Cheat Sheets.. Javascript CSS Where can i get cheat sheet in Net? There were around thousands of cheatsheets available in Internet in Techcheatsheets (TCS) and it was a really good compilation. In Vertrigo website, one can find cheat sheets for PHP, MySQL, Html Entities, apache mod_rewrite, RGB Hex and VBScript (asp) developed by Jack Daniels . What is the advantage of using a cheat Sheet? Time is saved. As a human, we ought to forget the some syntax of function (sometimes spelling). Now, I can realize.. how much amount of time would be saved if I have this cheat sheet in my hand (the wasted time includes googling). neway, Lets keep moving forward.. Imitating and Improving, ...

3 x 9 = 3... Dyscalculia

If you think this blog is about new theory explaining how 3 x 9 equals 3, you are wrong. Bindaaz. If you really interested in learning how 3 x9 equals 3, watch the movie "Taare Zameen Par" and here goes a mixture of my learnings and the review of the movie. When I read the sub title of the movie "Every Child is Special", I thought why only the child is special, its everything in the world is special. Later I consoled myself that it was a movie about child, so it has to be like that. if Aamir Khan (or any well established person) is not there in this movie, I am sure that this would be a another documentary movie gone unnoticed. The presence of Aamir Khan in this movie makes it a commercial one. When I say "documentary movie", please dont imagine, that I am underrating the movie. Most of the documentary movies were master stroke, but its sad that they always fail to win in the commercial market. Another interesting point I have noticed is that, this movie...
