I have hosted a new sub-domain under karthickraghavan.com. It is going to be my online photo gallery. It is Karthick Raghavan’s gallery. Have used Gallery 2.0 as the photo management software. Thanks to Balaji, I have made it. have planned to update it as an when I find time and pictures. Do check it and let me know how it has come out. 
Was going through the google analytics for karthickraghavan.com. Something was unusual. I had a visitor from Olulu (See picture).
Where the heck is this place? If I still remember my middle school geography correctly, it is in the pacfic ocean. This I say after seeing the map. hehe!
Do people have access to the internet from the middle of the sea? Is Olulu an island? No answers yet. I am going nuts. 
P.S. :- I had a visitor from Istanbul (Turkey) and Lucknow (Australia). I never knew there was a Lucknow in Australia. How poor I am in geography!
I have been seeing ads from a lot of job sites over the internet and other forms of media. In fact, I have tried using a few of them during my job search after college. That was in 2004.
If I remember correctly, these sites offer resume building and personality development courses too. They charge an amount for these additional services. Are these sites worth using? I am listing out a few of the famous Indian job sites below. If you have used any of these or any of your friends have used and were placed in a job let me know. It is just a curiosity to know whether these are worth using.
Indian Job sites
Life has become so easy after I learned to use google search (courtesy : Balaji). I wouldn’t say that I am a best user of google. I will rate myself above average.
A few of my colleagues know that I use google to the max. The other day, we were chatting about FM stations available in chennai which brought up a small argument. One of my mangers was around and he started commenting to a colleague.
” I know the next thing he (me) is gonna do is google out FM stations in chennai“.
I was done with it before he had finished his statement.
How do you think google helps you? Do you love it or hate it? Scribble here!
P.S.:-
I still remember an episode when I found out that people search for a lot of curious things. Thanks to IE’s Auto-complete, I was searching for something starting with the letter S and the first suggestion from IE was Shakila (the most famous malayalam actress) . A die-hard Shakila fan has not spared office PC too.
Started the day today with Deccan chronicles’s e-paper. Thumbing through the pages, I was in for a shock when I reached the supllementary (chennai chronicle). It had an article on how cine stars are pestered by over-enthusiastic fans and how they should tackle them. It related certain incidences where cine stars are bugged by some of their own fans. Excerpts from certain stars were also given. Arya’s (an upcoming tamil actor) views shocked me. I am quoting tha daily’s exact words here.
Arya feels that Kollywood is a far safer industry than Bollywood. “Compared to the kind of mafia threats that Bollywood stars face, the Tamil film industry is much more peaceful. Take the case of Martina Hinges who was stabbed by her fan. Her career is ruined. A situation like Suriya’s is critical and sensitive and it is definitely unwarranted. We as stars try and satisfy our fans to a large extent, but they expect us to talk to them whenev er they want and always be nice and approachable. When we don’t due to work pressure, they tend to resort to such means, which is ridiculous,” he says. ”
Is it not Monika Seles who was stabbed on her back by a die-hard Stefi Graf fan?
I am not sure whose negligence this could be. Is it DC’s or Arya’s ? Deccan chronicle has made it a habit of committing mistakes often. I am thinking of switching back to “The Hindu“.
“Quality never compromises with money“. It is true. For one rupee, you cannot expect quality.
Weekend and it is time to learn something new. Was looking out for good wordpress themes and Giraffe2 caught my attention. It attracted me at the first sight. Jumped into it and dressed my blog with this new look. let me know how it has come out. Thanks to John Godley!
