Just a simple thread where you can put in the movies you think are worth watching. Linking to the Wikipedia and IMDB page would be useful as well.

I would start with: Fight Club (English)

9 rupees - 30 minutes is very good. But after completion of the 1st pack, how many more same packs can you activate in 1 day.

Say i activated 1st pack and used it for 29 minutes and deactivated it and wait for some 10 mins and then activate 2nd pack and again use it for 29 minutes.

Does Airtel maintain some kind of record of the number of these packs activated by one number in 1 day?

Or is it like the activation SMS from 2nd pack will come late and the delay increases with each pack? so that we would be tired of waiting.

I have not seen anything against using specific number of these small packs, so i want to try them. And i have only tried 1 9 rupees pack in 1 day.

What do you say guys?

 

Heard for the first time today in an AD in Mid-day. They are offering 16 Mbit unlimited @ 11999 PA Has anyone tried it/using it?

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

New Delhi: The auctions for the Indian Premier League (IPL) have begun in the ballroom of the Oberoi Hilton in Mumbai.


The Chennai team paid the highest amount for Mahendra Singh Dhoni in the first round. Dhoni was bought for Rs 6 crore ($1.5 million) and he will be joined in the Chennai team by Sri Lanka’s spin whiz Muttiah Muralitharan who was bought for Rs 2.4 crore ($600,000).


Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne, who retired from international cricket early last year, was bought by Jaipur at Rs 1.8 crore ($4,50,000) while Adam Gilchrist was bought by Hyderbad for Rs 2.8 crore ($700,000)


Controversial Pakistani pace bowler Shoaib Akhtar will join Shah Rukh Khan’s Kolkata team for Rs 1.82 crore ($455,000).


The first round auctions saw the 'Marquee Players' being put up for sale. The Mumbai, Bangalore and Delhi teams did not take part in the first round.

A total of 78 players are up for grabs and they will be bought by eight franchises over the next 11 hours. Around Rs 160 crore ($40million) is at stake during the auctions.


But in a big blow to the IPL, Australia's Test and One-Day skipper Ricky Ponting, Andrew Symonds, Brett Lee and Michael Hussey will not be playing in the IPL in 2008 and hence they won't be auctioned.


Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid have already reached the for their team's bid


Each of the eight franchisees of the IPL will be allowed to spend a minimum of Rs 132 crore ($3.3 million) but not more than Rs 200 crore ($5 million) during the auctions.

Chennai bags Dhoni for Rs 6 cr, SRK wins Shoaib

I am very very happy that my company has got dhoni and more importantly dhoni will play for Chennai Team. I am delighted on this news. Come chennaites the first IPL tournamet will be ours. Cheer up chennaites.

So, I reorganized the forum structure. I was hoping for something simpler but that seems impossible in the current scenario. I gave Online Shopping section a boost. And opened up new sections for major shopping services as well.

And as I mentioned in another thread... I messed up during the process and deleted the Videogames section. Recreated it and added forums for consoles.

If anything is messed up or you have any feedback, use this thread for the same. Cheers.
