I feel this comforts the heart...

Search Engine Project meets full stop.

Today, I was rushing towards hard coding..with the hurry of finishing the project before afternoon.
I was acting like an assembler than a programmer. I integrated various reusable code snippets with the project code.

The last headache came when I tried to connect to google for searching. Thats, Google's 403 error code! I got surprised! 403 http error code says: Your request is understood, but I wont allow :) .. See.. How smart google is!
Then I planned to use wget for ripping the search page then storing it in a file and reading from bean class.
The project has beome like a noodles structure! . Immediately I got an idea popping in mind...Why dont try socket?
Yes, it worked at last.

How long should I fight with computer?

Absent mindedness, stuck, head ache, frustration.....these things are new gifts offered by computers..When do I get relief? How come I feel this much pain?
Yes, I got it...I need patience ..distance from the computers...

No...No..I cant imagine a world without Google!!

Nokia 6600 -- (Dis)connecting India...

I tried the pop mail service project with Nokia6600...It didnt work! I dont know what hell went behind..
Again & again, I flushed the o/p stream..but no improvement!. Have to think of it..
Evening things went bore ...Again, I saw the nice film 'Behind the enemy lines'

Google in Tamil

Hmm.... It took an year to speak about the project atleast. When collaborated with Annauniv, to develop Tamil based search engine, I had never time to think about it..(I had time, but I didnt bother ...).
I am loosing my memories often....What could be the reason for this?

Playing with Nokia6600

Today, I had chance to play with Nokia 6600. I was running some sample popo applications...It didnt work out!
When, I tried in the morning ... it worked but now it is not!!

Last bug present in the project has been fixed !!! (Who knows it is the last???)

Today, I went to my 3rd class. I met my juniors. Who made them become this much afraid abt the interviews? I asked them to be cool and casual. I went on explaining may tactica about interview. I insisted them to give more preferences to improve their HR potential than Technical.
I tried to make them become confident. I'd be happy, if they could really grab some thing from my words. I have a lot to talk with them....

It worked at last.

For the past 2 weeks, I have been in the job of executing my project. First ..midp2.0 mobile was in demand, then no Gprs and ...so many hurdles.

Today, thing went total flop, even when I had all these avail.
Atlast, I added a magic line, which made my project work!!

out.flush();


Thanks God, for this drama. I still remember the lesson, "Any problem has its own solution, Dont believe?, try Google!! "

(Now only I know why programmers have beard!!)

Project in Execution

Hmmm... I think that I take more effort to execute this project than what I spent for developing it.
Today, I demonstrated it to my Guide. There comes some sugesstion. Me too.. like to modify it! but modification requires some other mobile! But, I dont have such mobile nearby..

Lets see how thing go....

- "Change the project with sync to the specification, if not, do vice versa."
(Now I like this quote very much)

Carnatic Classics

Now, I do like carnatic & keerthanaas very much than before. It has its pristine grlory and being the root of all Indian musical threads.
Dikshitars developed this treasure with new spirit during earlier days. Now it took itself many divergents. Now, what people doing is amazing and interesting. They do not follow any proper tune in complete flow, but they used to mix them all...and bring it as a new class of Raga.It is really enjoyable and tweaks the heart!
Pop mixed Hindi, Hindi mixed Tamil has become the fashion today. But, it still comforts the heart to sink into pure classicals !!!

Ups and downs of Life!

Some time I feel very much old, feeling tired of 85 yrs. It slumps down and make me idle. What could be the reason? Is it mental dead? or Physical bug?. Absolutely nothing.. These things are due to the toxins mobbing the mind..since over thinking.. I planned to stop touching computers atleast for a week....at least for a day(?..) .....at least for an hour(!!?)......at least...NO NO where is 'G', O' .... 'O' and .. 'G' then.... 'L' then... 'E' '.' 'C' 'O' 'M' and enter key....?

Meet with people ..

Today, I planned to meet my juniors and talk to them about these issues:

1. Learning one slef & not wasting money & time for unwanted courses.
2. Importance of group activities and group work.
3. Tranforming the experience(or talent) from one generation to the youth generation.
4. Current IT trend and forseable opportunities.
5. Skills demanded and how to build them.

Bearing all these in mind, I went there. (I think it should be 2 BE CSE- C section.). Some of them seemed to be enthusiatic, some looked interestless and few remained speechless. I started to talk about the issues one by one, they listened to me keenly...
I asked them if they had any questions. They remained silence. I repeated the same. Few questions blown out. They are very fundo and thinking in base. I could realize that they were in a pre-matured state, willing to learn some thing, but without knowing 'How to'.
They are like fresh clay, they should be shapped, not for the favour of any tehnology/any corporate, but for the spirit of engineering.
I could do some thing for these guys..not to make them leant, make them how to learn...

Jroup kickstart .

Today, I am thinking of doing some thing for Jroup. It must not be a session, where people speak for long... and question..
People are not interested in listening to speech. Instead they will believe at what we demonstrate and what we execute.
So, it should be demo session. I start some extreme java applications from WWW.....

Life without problems bores always !!!

Yesterday was very happy! (even, there is suffer, I installed Sun's J2EE Apps server and launched the EJB successfully. as 10th time! ) I shipped the online-exam from Tomcat to J2EE ....Hurrah!
But today the hell started ....48 was even not responding for ping. What could have gone wrong? Doesnt seem to be crazy to say the server is frozen !
What job does it has than answering the pinging? Hmm..Then I tried to re-install the apps in 42. But it will slowdown, since it is proxy. I dont think that it is that much smart to handle the load.
So, next target is 46. But I am panic! Already its flooded with heavy load. Then, how come it to handle the burden of apps ?
Any way I launched the apps in 46. Lets see how thing go ...with destiny ...

Hmm... This all should be the back fire of long days work...I should think of rest ...

Recovering from fatal errors ...

Hmm... Now I take breath easily. I feel the situation becomes cool some what. Still the effect ...swings..
Today after attended project review. Evening, I searched for MIDP2.0 & CLDC1.0 version mobile no.
Got a list from www. Thanks for ever to Google . I have to make a copy of it. Since, it is the answer for most of the review questions.
Few more holes left with the project .. Hoping, soon I'll complete them...
