Adsense & Wikipedia

As Adsense is about to celebrate its 8th birthday in a few
months from now, Wikipedia has just celebrated its 10th.

Had Wikipedia agreed to display ads on its site, both Wikipedia
and Adsense would have made millions if not billions.

Yet, Wikipedia continues to thrive on user donated dollars.

Let's see, what the future has in store !

Yahoo! TV vs. Google TV

Haven't used any of them, but while reading online,
came across this and this.

Seems like, Google TV is going to be much more complex
and bigger, like everything Google is. They allow apps, search,
home screen customization etc.

Yahoo! TV on the other hand seems to be much simpler
and just a couple of overlay screens on the television, to buy
things online etc.

Let's see which one takes the cake!

No one killed Jessica is a Hindi movie?

I like the movie, but I had to take a name to prove my point.
Most of the contemporary Bollywood movies use English dialogues
liberally. In the advertisements and the certificates given to these
movies, it should be made compulsory to  list the languages used in the
movie.

There are people who don't understand English and don't want to watch
a movie which has too much of it. They should not be cheated by projecting
a movie as a Hindi movie, when it's not one.

Buying shoes should become easier

It should be same as buying packaged food items/electronic gadgets.
But rather it's like buying clothes.

What I mean is, there should be a model number for every shoe type,
so that the prices can be compared across the stores.
At least from the manufacturers who are selling abnormally expensive
shoes, for e.g. : Adidas, Nike & Reebok.

Then there should be a leaflet, explaining the material used in the shoe.

With the kind of prices they have touched these days,
they need to give the customer a better picture of what's
being sold.

Another RGV movie in limelight for wrong reasons

Contract, which released on 18th July, 2008 was followed
by serial bomb blasts in Ahmedabad on 26 July, 2008.
In the movie, terrorists bombed the hospitals where the victims
of bomb blasts were being rushed in. Actual bomb blasts
mimicked the same pattern.

Now, after the release of Raktha Charitra 2 , Suri, on whom
the movie was based and who was the prime suspect of killing
Paritala Ravi, has been killed.

The movie released on 3rd December, 2010 and the killing on
3rd Jan, 2011.
