Database


Cnet Download.com had a suggested download for easy to use database software, and since I am lazy and always looking for easy stuff decided to check it out.

Alpha Software

Publisher's Website Alpha Software Develop powerful/custom Desktop and Web apps quickly and easily. Programming not required. Innovative application scripting and break-through Web components allows you to take control of your information and makes you self-sufficient in terms of being able to build sophisticated applications for your particular business or organization on the desktop and the Web. Works with built in DBF engine and MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, and ODBC sources.
Sad thing is on going to their website it was down.... because their database was out of space! I guess the software is so easy to use they dont hire any guy smart enough to monitor their logs. :)

Whats that song?

I like to let my WorldSpace play on in the backround while I read, surf or wahtever. But sometimes a song catches my fancy and I have no way of knowing who the artist is. Today I found a site Tunatic, it claims I can play the music thru a mic and it will give me the information. Its free. This will be fun to try out and if it works I will expand my music listening and contract my wallet.

:P

These people really dont seem to use anything except the data connector. Must have pure digital input somewhere.

I really didnt get what that device is.... its looking like the ipod usb connector is some how connected to her breast? Guy didnt give any title, so we just have to assume this is iPod Tit-Powered version.

Anti-Hyperthreading

Most apps cant use multiple CPUs/cores. AMD (is rumoured) to have something coming out that uses multiple cores but emulates a single CPU to the apps. This would be fun. Read more here.

New 'phones

Got my new earphones today from Nilesh. SONY EX 71. I am pleasantly suprised. I expected good, but not this quality of bass. Its so controlled. At last iPod sound is bearable. Ahh. Need to try out even higher end earphones. Crazy feeling. And suprising the in ear feels so good. Not at all uncomfortable. I had used in ear long back but those were hard. These I forget they are on. Not yet heard them with a proper CD player. I am scared.

MS Patchday

MS has 3 critical patches out. Odd isc.sans.org seems to be down. Scary. The rest of sans.org seems to work though.

Worldspace RJs

WorldSpace channel Spin has a really horrid female RJ this morning. Sigh FM RJs are much better. Strange, I never noticed an RJ on WorldSpace till this morning. Doing her best to sound funny and entertaining. And coming over as plastic.

Groan

Have not been bloggin for a bit. Had been for a couple of days to Manori. Still not posted the pics. Not too happy about the pics. Feeling real tired since last week. The heat always gets me down. My eyes dry all the time. My tummy feels awful. Need cooler weather.

Nilesh is back. But his blog has been neglected. But then poor fellow he has, started the end of his life. :D

Ajay P.. wonder if he ever reads my blog. Sigh another one doomed. Im sure his wife loves him even more for the phone call he made to me from Goa.

This guy has great luck. Some people just have things easy :P
