Awesome feature in my new fone
After breaking my ‘recently new’ N-Series phone last morning, I resorted to buy a simple fone, and got myself a Samsung E2120 today. This phone a cool little feature called Fake Call, basically all it does is that it generates a fake call for you at the touch of a button, so if you find someone annoying you, like a little meeting with your boss, or some boring neighbor, and you want to get out of that situation, you can just press a key and keep your phone in the pocket. In the next 5 secs you will get a fake call generated for an “unknown” number. You can disconnect the call (???) or attend the call and start talking, but you wont get any response from the other side and make use of the opportunity to get out of that situation.
This was really cool, I have added a shortcut to this feature, so I might use it next time.. 
Look at this video for a demo

Bittu at BITS
Last month I was giving my mid semester exams at BITS Exam Center in Chennai, This was in a school near Thiruvanmyuir
and when I was walking down from the exam hall after scribbling whatever my mind thought was relevant to the QP (just like every other exam that I give , I was unprepared for this one as well),
I found these chits on the floor.. Couldn’t resist to take some snaps.. Reminds me of college days…
I don’t know how others feel about it.. but this looked very funny to me.. I mean these guys are a bunch of professionals with lots of experience, and they use chits :0 ….
I guess I should start preparing for my finally exams (MicroXerox)..

Software Development Life Cycle
- Programmer produces code he believes is bug-free.
- Product is tested. 20 bugs are found.
- Programmer fixes 10 of the bugs and explains to the testing department that the other 10 aren’t really bugs.
- Testing department finds that five of the fixes didn’t work and discovers 15 new bugs.
- Repeat three times steps 3 and 4.
- Due to marketing pressure and an extremely premature product announcement based on overly-optimistic programming schedule, the product is released.
- Users find 137 new bugs.
- Original programmer, having cashed his royalty check, is nowhere to be found.
- Newly-assembled programming team fixes almost all of the 137 bugs, but introduce 456 new ones.
- Original programmer sends underpaid testing department a postcard from Fiji.
Entire testing department quits. !! - Company is bought in a hostile takeover by competitor using profits from their latest release, which had 783 bugs.
- New CEO is brought in by board of directors. He hires a programmer to redo program from scratch.
- New Programmer produces code he believes is bug-free.
