Yes, iCon was a very well written book - giving the readers a in depth insight into Jobs' life. This book, in a way, continues where iCon ended, and I think, the last 10 years of Steve Jobs is the most fascinating period.

Welcome back Abhishek!
Finally you put some words on your blog and not a picture speaking a thousand words. :-)
Long live delicious indeed! I had stopped using it long back. But, I remember you giving me a tutorial about it! :-)

Ha ha. Indeed, I had three versions posted since morning (couldn't make up my mind actually :) ) - now this is final. (I had thought of another background image, but on second thoughts, found it a bit effeminate :P)

How do you like my new blog design btw?

2010-03-18T00:15:55.272-05:00

Hahahhaa Abhishek.. I visited my blog and noticed on my blog updates that Abhishek's new post was titled 'Washing tomatoes'. :) It instantly brought a smile on my face and after reading your post/seeing the pictures, I am laughing all by myself at midnight. :D Please take that as a compliment 'cos I was just about to give up on work and go off to sleep and your post has brought some enthusiasm back into my brain. :D I should thank you for that! :)

//..shows how bored I get sometimes in the evening, after a busy day at work.//
You have no idea how jealous that makes me. You have time to take pictures of a tomato being washed.. hmmmm

Very nice pictures btw.. The tomato is also pretty ahem ahem I must say... ;) There is some surface tension on awesome display especially in the first pic. :)

Cheers! Keep it up!! :)

P.S. Please do not sit and count the number of exclamatory marks and smileys. :D
P.P.S. As if the comment wasn't long enough I have a P.S. and a P.P.S. too :P

Agila, at least this post made you laugh :)

//So, hit the link.. and start commenting on that blog's posts (at least on the introduction post, or the "About Me" page there).//
Hahahhaaa.. You sound so desperate to get comments - so much so that you are 'inviting' readers to leave comments on your "About me" page.. LOL!! :P

//"Technically Yours" (please don't make fun of the title :)//
Hehe.. Abhishek, you saying that makes us laugh all the more.. :D

//One of my friends managed to discover the blog..//
Why do I have this strong feeling that I might just know this friend of yours?! ;)

:P

Thanks Dishit. Yes, to me, it really seems weird to patent a software idea. Idea is a major part of software development, and it is the implementation of this idea which makes a product unique.

2010-03-08T12:01:47.760-06:00

I agree with you that idea cannot be patented but implementation can and should. nice insight about the lawsuit. like the way you presented - any layman can understand it.

@Agila: Thanks for the comments (and the number of exclaimation marks and happy smileys :) ). Yes, the image in the link does share certain similarities with the photo posted.

@Himanshu - Whoa!! How can you be out of words :)? Glad you liked it :)
Thanks for the award btw. I am honored (as always, when I see name mentioned in your posts :) )

2010-03-07T18:36:42.060-06:00

Ha ha - I love my iPhone, so not even thinking of Android platform (the Google Nexus One does appear attractive though, but nah... ).

Talking about going after Google, its a bit difficult. I think, its far more easier to file a patent lawsuit against a device or product which the consumer buys - and HTC is one of the smaller manufacturer of the Android based phones. Android is a platform, and getting into OS patent war will be a more tricky for Apple (not to mention Google being the bigger company here).

P=VI?!? I do remember some patent on under-clocking too (I wonder if this the same one). I am curious to know which team comes up with the decisions of filing patents in Apple. With the number of patents they file every year, I would like to work in that team :D

Thanks for commenting!!

2010-03-07T16:28:06.189-06:00

So are you still keeping the iPhone or moving to Android to register your protest where it will hurt most, to Apple's bottom line :D

Agree with you on the patents thing though. Theres another silly one I remember. Something about supplying less voltage to a processor to save power! Like someone was saying, Apple is claiming a patent on P=VI (i think thats the formula :P), and something thats always been done to save power in processors....
What were they thinking? The only reason I can think of is to try and distract/scare HTC. If they are that certain, let them go after Google with that patent ;)

WOAH!!! Mind-blowing!!!!

//(Looks like cells under a microscope, doesn't it?)//
Believe it or not, that was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw that pic!! I was even trying to think what kind of cells they looked like, initially thought it was Squamous epithelial cells, but soon realized that they look more like plant Parenchyma. :) (Check this out - http://www.dbs.umt.edu/courses/biol316/Anatomy/plant/parencol/paren1/images/38n.jpg)
Okay.. too much biology.. But, I have to agree with you 100% there - cells was what immediately came to my mind.. :)

Simple concept - AMAZING shot!!! Cheers!!!

2010-02-15T15:04:21.910-06:00

Haha.. That's funny! I went through this Translation Party with my Japanese friend and sure enough, even the first translated entry in Japanese cracked her up.. Forget about the equilibrium, even the next few didn't make any sense to her.. We tried many funny and nasty (you don't really want to know ;)) sentences and the equilibrium just left us in splits... :P

Here's something rather simple and harmless (!) that I tried.. :P

"Abhishek, you must be highly jobless!"
//Bachchan has a high unemployment rate!//

Oh, really?! At that rate,

"God save the translation party!"
//God will be converted to a third party!//

What?!?!?! :-o

Thanks for sharing! You have no idea what a gala time I had at the party! :D
