The First Day

Posted on 25 Nov 2006 under Humour, Journal/Life Updates

And so begins the small but vital to my (in)sanity 18-day holiday. What did I do today? Why, I woke up early in the morning, went for an early morning run, came back half an hour later, did my yoga, bathed, ate a nutritional, wholesome breakfast, and then went about the rest of the morning [...]


The Acidic Side of Life’s Wicked Sense of Humour.

Posted on 23 Nov 2006 under GNEC, Humour, Life

If you know me, you know that I know that we all know that life is a bitch (see all posts under the “Life” category ). But did you also know that it has its own darkly ironic and twisted sense of humour? Well, now I do (too). Tomorrow’s the last exam – SS. Now, [...]

The W3C CSS validator does not support opacity in CSS, even though browsers like Safari and Firefox have been supporting it since 2004 (Opera too, started supporting opacity later that year, apparently). Internet Explorer (like always) plays spoilsport. So you need to make something called a filter apparently and then use the opacity tag. Anyway, [...]


Sitescore, Favicon & PostRating plugin aaaannnnddd…. WOOHOO!

Posted on 04 Nov 2006 under Site Designing

So a couple of days back, I log on to the internet, and log onto Silktide Sitescore. (I’ve been waiting for my site to finally get indexed by Alexa, which improves the sitescore because it proves how popular/visited your site is, and popularity is one of the measurements for Sitescore). So, this morning, I notice [...]
