Me, I and Myself, always there for a friend.

Friends, nowadays orkut is really catching up.
While i was roaming around and was peeping through all my colleagues' desks, i found that everyone is using orkut. It doesn't come as a surprise to me because, really we are somehow lagging in social aspect. Specially people who stay away from home, and who like to meet quite a number of people spend quite a lot of time on this site.
And i would say almost everyone has found their lost friends, beginning right from school days to college days, to grads, and post-grads.
Gone are the days, when two uncles used to meet in some 50's and will say, "man it is quite a time almost 30 years, we haven't met". I agree same scenario may exist today as well but the factor would be that earlier, those two friends were not in contact with each other and didn't knew each other about domain of concern but now with these kinds of web services, people are atleast connected.
God knows, till what time this will continue because, like "orkut", someone else might again come up with different with some other idea.

One other happening nowadays is the frequency with which different versions of operating systems, softwares are coming up. Gone are the days, when Linux 1.0 came in one year and it took almost more than 2 years to come up with 2.0 version. Same is the case with Windows. Win95, Win98, Win2000, winnt, winxp(2002) release and list goes on with all latest updates coming on fly, getting installed automatically.
Seems, we are heading in right direction but the progress in some other direction.

I discussed with one of my friends about we were to think about living in space , what would it need. He said, the scientific temprament to think about physics, about space and try to reach the impossible. There is really big question on why our best talent is in IIT, IIM, and not doing Phd in Physics.
Really we have become not little but too much selfish in terms of gains we want.

Adancements apart, life is going in really different way, God knows where it will end...........

My friend was always complaining why i don't write testimonial to it. This was my way of writing a testimonial...

Oh my hand, don't stop typing because my mind doesn't want to stop thinking about this person, so should you not stop typing.
Oh my eyes, stay intact without flicker so that i don't miss a single character i may miss. Be open till i complete atleast some small facts.
Oh my legs, don't give up the posture of sitting, because, you are of very very less importance than the person for whom i am writing.
Oh Microsoft Notepad, please allow me store this file which has contents about a very important person.
Oh my Intel's PC, give enough space to this file because, it has such an important contents.
Oh the wind, come like a sweet breeze so that i can get all those thoughts which i have ever thought about this person.
