Yesterday I accidentally saw the joint press conference of President Obama and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh where the former is acting as the host. Obama was crisp and Manmohan was as lame as one can get. Pakistan survived yet again from any strong worded statement from the two leaders. Just typical diplomatic re-affirmations all around which now have started sounding stale. There is much desired from our leaders in doing something concrete and fast. If the results are horribly delayed, then there is no point of celebrating them. Apart from all this, I am waiting for tonight's call to finish and I rush back home to sleep. That is the best thing that I can do in my otherwise lousy routine these days.

Last few days I have been trying my hands with the new Ubuntu 9.10
And I must say that I am mighty impressed. There were a couple of things like certain web-pages correct rendering on to the browsers, multimedia and text editing applications were a little let-down for a normal user. But the look and feel of the new gen of linux is very very promising and already giving a tough run to the biggies.

And best part is that its all for free! May the creative juices keep flowing in the open-source communities ... Amen !!
