WP3!

By Raj ⋅ June 21, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Well, this update went much smoother than the other WP updates that I have done. At one point I was looking at running both this site and the blog site from within the same WP, but I don’t think that would work. It will be too much of a hassle for me to figure out [...]

Bug and the Nexus One

By Raj ⋅ March 22, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

… How my baby is like the Nexus One – Both reasonably new models, but with new revs coming every day, it seems impossible to keep up. Neither are really built to sleep, they want to interact all the time, both are small and peppy and take very little to recharge. Both have alarms that [...]

Pwned

Well, 14 gold medals, thank you “own the podium” for giving up on your team on your own turf. The world counts gold medals, not total medals why don’t we? Congrats Olympic team Canada for showing up the pencil pushers.

What a year

By Raj ⋅ February 26, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

This time last year, I was waiting to meet my baby together with Neelam who was getting ready for the OR. The temperature was -39 outside and I think I was a bit scared. Fast forward a year, Bug is the shining gem of my life (along with Neelam of course), it is +7 outside [...]

Short

By Raj ⋅ February 12, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

I’ve just set up a URL shortener – this way, as long as I’ve got my domain up and running, I know those links are going to be good – at least at the first point. So if you see boora.ca/short/ URLs out there, they are mine.

iPad… I want one… maybe… we’ll have to see it in real life.

droids are my heros

By Raj ⋅ December 30, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Well I’ve jumped off the Blackberry ship and I have to say that Android is pretty nice. Part of me will miss some of the refinement on the bb platform, but. The wilderness of ‘droid is certainly fun. I’ll post more on Editing.

7D Native Support

By Raj ⋅ December 18, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

It looks like, just in time for Christmas, Apple has updated its list of supported cameras to include the 7D. If only I had a rich Santa…

Connecting Facebook with the blog

By Raj ⋅ November 17, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

I’ve found a sweet plugin to port comments from Facebook to the blog. Even though the blog is more professional than personal, the posts there are far more interesting than the ones here. I would add this to FB as well, but they only allow a single blog to be imported.

2 more ticks off the Bucket List

By Raj ⋅ November 2, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

I’ll tick visiting Turks and Caicos and seeing U2 live off my list in 2010. The only thing that will make it better is to be a torch bearer.
