I received this message on Orkut from one of my friends in Intel:

Hi… This is a marketing strategy of INTEL to promote Core 2 Duo. check this out [SOME URL] Why don’t you give it a shot and you could win an i-pod or if you are really lucky even a new computer!

This is NOT a SPAM.

I replied:

All the best! [:)][:D]

Another friend had recently asked me what was the news on Intel-AMD front. He got to know from some sources that AMD is not doing so well and is having a really tough. Well, you can judge yourself mate!

New RSS feed

I have recently updated the RSS feed of this blog and now the latest and greatest feed, with a lot of cool features which I'll add in the near future, is available here.

I would request all my readers who read my blog via RSS feeds to switch to those feeds for the following reason:

1. The new feed is going to include some cool new features, like headlines etc.


2. The old feed is causing me some problem in numbers management so I am planning to get rid of that feed altogether.

I am sorry for the inconvenience it has caused but I hope to compensate that with the refreshing new feed.
