No its not a new Firefox extension but it tells how mad i am about my extensions. I never knew how many extensions i had until tonight. I saw a Top Post on Wordpress telling about some good Firefox extensions I checked it out and i had the best among them already but thought of checking how many I have. When I saw it I was like what the hell. Just take a look:

I never knew I had so many and most of them I use too. I recently removed some Extension like foxy tunes because they took the space in the status bar. Still I never knew I had 22 extensions I know people have more but I have 22 and I use them all. Funny I guess I am really mad.

Oh yeah i edited the picture to fit all the extensions in one file the scroll bar makes it look wierd though

I had been watching many of the English shows which came on star world before coming to Chennai. I can’t watch them anymore we have the CAS here and it’s terribly idiotic to buy and set top box for just one place in which I am going to live for maybe a year. Now I think many of the Indians do watch English shows as most of them are a relief from the Saas-bahu stuff or the repeated comedy we see(obviously there are many exceptions). The thing is Star World never airs the best shows in India. It takes months or even years to air the best show. Though it wasn’t the case in regards to Smallville but it was stopped after that as far I had seen. Many shows such as Lost never made it here and I being cut out from cable TV have never seen even one of the shows. Its hard for everyone who like such good shows so what is the answer to our questions. I say that downloading show is not right as they are copy righted stuff but we end up doing at as we can’t see it. So, where do all these guys download all the shows from? It’s mostly from the torrent sites as it’s very easy to find shows there. These torrents have sometime dedicated seeders rather some torrents where there are only leachers and no seeders. The guys who download look at the best sites and get the perfect torrents. Mostly people download whole seasons which can be some time as high 7 GB. This is very impractical in our cases with the data caps we suffer in our broadband connections. But these problems never deter people from downloading it who download these shows even though they are so big in size. That’s what we call really being fan of a show.

At last I got my AllPeers invitation but will use it through my Ubuntu installation as I gave it Linux as my platform. Also this is the first of my post which is typo free as it has been done on Word. If there are any faults blame it on Word hehe.

Yes its Krugle time again as I got a reply for beta testing though I have’nt been given the chance to beta test it but its great to see that I may get it. As ealier I had said that it seems like coders google I will have to change my statements its definately different and somewhat better in terms of the searches. You can directly get the codes for various types of programming languages and other scripts. It seems the search is very comprehensive and has many different options. The thing is also I refered it to being mostly useful for Open source guys but I guess I was wrong, if you are doing anything programming languages or scripts krugle can help easily. Now here is a bit from the E-mail I recived from them.

If u say I made a typo in the title then you are wrong. I really mean ad-wars . I first came face to face with these wars by the competition between pepsi and coco cola on ads. They had mocked every single ads of each other from Slaman Khan to what not. They were nearly unstopable. But suddenly after the great Sprite vs Dew battle everything went calm now they are back again with more kicks. It started with the Sharukh Khan Pepsi TV Ad then it was the Aish’s Thande ka tadka all was fine but sprite teased the Sharukh Khan’s Pepsi TV ad and now in a hurried work Pepsi to tease the ‘thande ka tadka’ ad came with the worst ad in the century. May we all be saved from the upcoming stupidities. I am dead sure this will trigger the ones more the long forgotten Cola Wars.

As Qwerty asked I would explain the Ads in refrence here.

1) Sharukh Khan Pepsi TV Ad
In this ad SRK orders Cable guy that he wants channel when they ask which he says Pepsi TV they say there is nothing like Pepsi TV then suddenly Pepsi truck comes and theen Priyanka Chopra and Kareena Kapoor comes out and ask him that does he want pepsi TV he says yes and tells them where the TV is then it says to be continued…

2) The Aish Thande Ka Tadka
Aish and some of her friends walk by some boys outside some cafe where they whistles after she goes. She comes back and asks who was the one who whistled one says it was him she says was it a whistle it felt like a cooker’s whistle and she then teaches three ways of whistle one incuding using the coke bottle and so on.

3) The Sprite Pepsi TV Mock Ad
In this ad a guy brings a bottle to cable operator and tells that channel is not coming and then they make him hit his head with the remote and he realises that u cant watch channel on a bottle the guy in question acts like SRK.

4) The Pepsi Counter Ad
In this ad a guy is standing near a cooker when a gal pases and the cooker whistles she asks who whistled he says the cooker and she sees in it its Dal in it and then takes a bottle(coke type bottle) and puts in it saying Tadka…
