Ubuntu is there!

I dont know if Ubuntu has reached there, but it has definitely reached here!

I came home today to find a box full of Ubuntu CDs waiting for me. I wanted to try them out, but not disturb my tried and tested Debian installation. And what better way to run an Ubuntu Live CD, configure PPP-Over-Ethernet connection to BroadBand, write a post with OpenOffice and post it with Firefox? Been there, done that! Now, now, isn't Tathagata getting jealous?

I have been a Debian user for a long long time, I dont really feel the need to change to one of its derivatives, but I just might, its that good! Anyone sincerely wanting to try this hot new distro out, collect your free CDs from me.

Bloggers, bloggers, everywhere!

I had gone to take a test, not of the medical kind, but an entrance test. Now suddenly one of the invigilators seem to flash a smile of recognition. My mind races, do I know him? Turned out to be a fellow blogger! I had read his blog for months, even talked on email! Was definitely happy to see him. Anyway, some bloggers do seem to enjoy the anonymity offered by the internet, so let them be anonymous.
