Did you vote for Taj?

I am referring to the voting for the new 7 wonders of the world at the N7W website. For those to whom this is breaking news, there is a voting going on to choose the new 7 wonders of the world. The New 7 Wonders of the World will be announced during the Official Declaration ceremony in Lisbon, Portugal on Saturday, July 7, 2007 - 07.07.07. The N7W is on a world tour visiting each of the candidate wonders. They are scheduled to be at Taj Mahal in December, 2006.

You can place your vote online. In India, we have an alternate option of voting through sms.

So go ahead and vote for Taj Mahal!

Also I liked the bird's eye view of the Bing Map search , which is based on the Microsoft Virtual Earth now called Bing Maps for Enterprise. Overall impressive, I will not compare it with Google search yet. Mainly b...

How to be an early-riser?

In nursery I read a line "early to bed, early to rise; makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise" Is that true? I do not know. Never got a chance. I am one who to go to bed at early in the morning and rise late in the day. I am like the late-city edition of the newspaper which comes out late so that all the news of the previous day can be included. In my school day I was forced to rise early. Then also I used to sleep till the time after which it would become impossible to attend school. That too after mom and dad used to bug me for about an hour. Then came the hostel days in college (SRK Hostel @ JMI, New Delhi). I do not remember a single day when I had breakfast at hostel mess. Me and my roomie were equally good at rising late (but I think I was a bit better). But we used to have four different alarms set, still earliest time was 10:00am. I improved on that at NCST, B'lore. Due to that appearing for the quizzes was a big headache. But there I had a genuine reason; we used ...
