I still can’t figure out what’s wrong with MobileSafari’s font rendering. Got to be missing something in my CSS for http://bit.ly/PpjlE

Here it is: http://escapedsequence.c…
Got rid of the previous theme on Escaped Sequence and I applied a new one.
Gulab Jamuns and Pancakes!
I actually enjoyed Angels and Demons.
@ankurb Also, I said they may be cancelling the event. It isn’t a sure thing.
@ankurb I am not sure. Some kid might have caught the flu. It’s so easy to for the media to catch on to a story lik (cont) http://tl.gd/irq5
CNET needs questions they can ask Steve Ballmer. They welcome all the help they can get. http://bit.ly/3YA1Y5
@ankurb lol
@yuvipanda Sad. How did it go then?
Google misspelt its name to celebrate its 11th Birthday. Nice. http://google.com/
@ankurb And people follow him just to say that? :O
jQuery is very nice. Just realized what I’ve been missing.
@rajivmakhni LMAO @ ‘stuck in traffic for 5 hours everyday guru’
The thing I hate the most about Windows has got to be the way it renders fonts. Even Helvetica doesn’t look good on Windows.
Microsoft, remember that you’re here to fix Windows. http://bit.ly/9bTD6
@prateekvijay your school will get a call if it’s cancelled.
@rajivmakhni too many oprah style posts about giveaways made it look like that.
This year they could be cancelling the Bro. Aloysius Comp Symposium and Bro. Bergins Music Meet because of the flu.
@kbhargava ah ok.
@kbhargava Isnt @rajivmakhni an NDTV bot?
@ap00rv not possible.
Core i7 MacBook Pros where are you?
@rungta haha.
@shivaas I think you answered your own question as you completed it.
@ajuonline yes its fast. But it took like 6 hours to install.
@shivaas kind of obvious. Stupid me.
“If you are trying to waste what’s left of your…youth, use social networking sites like Facebook…” http://bit.ly/sDlmA
@shivaas did he actually say he prefers to use a Mac?
@gakman I’m happy it isn’t. If people start using this, a lot of us will be relieved.
The Twitter handle is the new domain name.
@ankur_sethi This thing boots in like 3 seconds on my computer. Do you think it will grow and still be this fast?
@ankur_sethi I’m going to install Haiku now.
@ankur_sethi Does it not work even on the new NVIDIA 9400M MacBook?
@ajuonline http://spechard.dgplug.o… This PDF they linked is enough.
@ankur_sethi Then why didn’t you buy a MBP?
@ankur_sethi may this be the last one.
@ankur_sethi gps may not have a live battery.
India and TRAI need to implement FCC’s net neutrality principles too.
@ankurb Best of Luck!
HTC Leo looks slick. But Windows?
@ankur_sethi heya pirate!
@ankur_sethi The 5.1s available aren’t true 5.1s. Do your research well.
@ankur_sethi HTC sense is the custom UI on the Hero that Engadget calls slow.
@kalyan02 For GoDaddy slow service causing timeouts doesn’t count as downtime.
GoDaddy isn’t reliable. 1and1 isn’t reliable. Is there any decent budget web hosting service? Maybe I shouldn’t use a self-hosted service.
@ankur_sethi You mean HTC Sense?
Don’t know why but skype just doesn’t work on my airtel line anymore. iChat to the rescue.
@ankur_sethi what is #fb?
@kbhargava why do you use refit? Holding the option key at boot brings up a menu. I always install ubuntu without refit.
@kbhargava easy way. Why take the pain? We have the same machines. Worked fine for me. It separates incompatible software anyway.
@lut4rp apress +1
Looks like the Zune HD is doing well. Finally, a good alternative. http://bit.ly/Eps9M
@ManishSinha disagree once again. Palm Pre and HTC Hero are nice too.
@bamit0890 sorry that was supposed to be a DM.
I don’t think a single textbook of mine has ever acknowledged the existence of AMD. It’s only Intel everywhere.
@ManishSinha the person who asks this question will be able to answer it better. Buy not to satisfy ego.
@ajuonline where?
@ManishSinha It has a lot to do with the kind of experience he wants. My advice would be to go through demonstrations and documentation.
I wonder what happened to Cisco’s IPhone.
@ankur_sethi Both Airtel and Vodafone sell the iPhone. Buy it from one, you can’t switch to the other. That carrier lock’s my complaint.
@prateekvijay Apple doesn’t operate the way Walmart does. If it did, we wouldn’t see it the way we do today.
@ankur_sethi that’s what I meant. The carriers cannot afford to subsidize it. Adoption will be much higher, Apple wants the same $$.
@ahujaankit nothing yet. Not from Apple at least.
@ManishSinha It’s like asking someone whether he needs a dishwasher.
@ManishSinha A person who has use for it won’t ask such a question.
@ManishSinha of course, once you start using something that makes things easier, you wouldn’t want to lose it.
@ManishSinha neither. It’s a device one uses to do many things.
@ap00rv disagree. IPhone isn’t toothpaste.
We pay $4 for 400 minutes of talktime. That’s why you don’t get iPhone cheap. Indians and NDTV should stop complaining.
@adipedia I’d like all my link retweets to be bookmarked on Delicious.
@ahujaankit Exams?
Please Microsoft, bring Zune HD to the Mac.
@ankur_sethi not working here on both my computers.
Arkham Asylum is one game no fan of Batman should miss.
Skype isn’t working on Airtel anymore.
RIP Mary! :-( So many people have covered this: http://tr.im/yV9u but none better than you guys. (RT
@ahujaankit)
@ManishSinha But you can tweet. Seems like a DNS problem.
Google acquires reCAPTCHA. Will probably result in freedom from the pain of interpreting Google’s CAPTCHA. http://2tu.us/t1d (via @sudhang)
I’ve reached a stage where I no longer care about my default web browser. As long as it isn’t Internet Explorer, we’re good to go.
@ajuonline really? I thought it was a lame name people used for their stupid websites.
@ankur_sethi What do you have in mind?
@ahujaankit Took 6 hours on my desktop.
Minimizing to the application dock icon in Snow Leopard would have be more usable if it had some sort of indicator on the icon.
@adipedia Even some of the most recent potboilers are better than that book.
I dislike the new Google Search buttons.
I still can’t spot Arkham Asylum DVDs in Delhi.
@ap00rv Correction: You’ll look like one of those dudes at the Genius Bar.
Just wasted 2.5 hours reading ‘My Friend Sancho’. Terrible book. R: 1/5
@sachitgupta Oh and you could use the built in Keychain access app.
@sachitgupta Might Google be of assistance?
@ap00rv Dude, you’ll like one of those dudes at the Genius Bar.
I wonder how much the Google Reader integration will cost when it arrives in NNW for iPhone.
@_karan People who know the language might not agree.

Sprint CEO thinks comparing Pre with iPhone is like comparing something to Michael Jordan. Bad news. http://bit.ly/pCd1I
@sudhang that’s it? After all those praising comments?
@ankur_sethi Don’t make it a habit.
@FinanceHobbyist uh?
@ankur_sethi Paste a glowing Haiku sticker on top of the Dell logo.
@ap00rv they went down by USD 20. And taxes are a whole lot more in the US. I got my $220 touch for $250.
“One of the competitive advantages we see for ourselves is that we do both hardware and software.” Heard this so many times.
So the great idea that Palm’s Synergy was is now being implemented both by Motorola and HTC on their most recent phones.

@sudhang FLAC at home, AAC for portable audio.
@sudhang What do you mean? You can encode them in whichever format you like.
Please Google, remove all that javascript from your homepage.
Is there anyway to grant/deny photo tag permissions on Facebook?

India, in 2009, is struggling to have it’s 3G infrastructure setup while the world gets ready for 4G.
That was disappointing.
“One more thing…” is back.
@kbhargava it does.
@ManishSinha Ok. I have used only the 110BX1 and 220BX(I had my 110BX1 replaced with a 220BX). I have only heard about the newer ones.
@ManishSinha Oh yeah. Airtel replaces them anyway!
@ap00rv some of their more recent models don’t support port forwarding even with the main.html trick.
@ahujaankit that it did on the date of its US launch if I remember correctly.
Jeez, when will Indians get to see the face of 3GS?
@ap00rv Tomorrow.
@sachitgupta The internet renders it small. Horrific.
@ap00rv The Airtel 220BX is excellent. But the new and improved 110BX1 is, as Ankur says, shit.
@shivaas Dude, Varun Chawla’s batch.
@rungta How about a Zagg InvisibleShield?
DOSBox is terrific.
@ajuonline Um..goodies worth stealing?
@lut4rp You’re in Paris?
@ankur_sethi Actually, I totally forgot about it.
@ankurb LMAO
@ankurb About the lenses, I think Zeiss advertises them.
@ankurb I think that might be an excuse. I think the Univ network has been down since yesterday.
@ankurb I think they already manufacture those.
A Yahoo Meme invite? No thanks.
@rungta Very cool.
Fun video of a very recent Apple Store theft. 23 MBPs, 14 iPhones, 9 iPod touches. http://bit.ly/ObqNr
They’ve started setting up WiFi repeaters at college.
I think the battery indicator on Leopard did a better job of indicating when the battery was fully charged.
Too much dust in Delhi.
@ankur_sethi Been working on fixing time slots for the code in my daily schedule. Never seems to work though.
Could Steve Jobs be the Apple keynote’s ‘One More Thing’?
