I have become an airport blogger. This time from Bangalore Airport. Can’t help. I am on the run. It’s barely a week that I arrived here to Bengaluru, after a hectic month at Seoul. When I am still gasping and breathing, am asked to be available at Boston by Monday. Customer trial related activity. Looks [...]

I met two boys from Tamilnadu. They gave me a ride to MG road in their self-designed car. On the way I kept thinking how they could drive on the road. Because that car did not have a transparent glass pane in the front. Bizarre ? This is the dream I woke up with this [...]

For those looking for answers to MB and Mbps confusion, I created this graphic. In fact I had another post sometime back. Do you realise…that my fingers are itching and getting desperate to put my Graphic tablet to some good use. Need fresh ideas for illustrations.

IPSec/Ike is a difficult-to-grasp security protocol. Because it is one protocol which does many things. Authenticates, encrypts and establishes a secure tunnel. I have been trying to get a understading of message exchanges between the initiator (eg: mobile) and responder (eg: security gateway) before the tunnel is established. In the most simplified form this is [...]

Just few lines & expressions come alive. Tried them on a lazy Sunday morning. First lesson to any budding cartoonist is the understanding of facial expression . eyes eyes eyes…don’t have to emphasise more. It’s all in the eyes. Place the dots and you instantly see the mood. Isn’t this easy ?…. try them in [...]

My first peripheral purchase. I have placed an order for HP ScanJet 2400. Delivery is expected tomorrow. These days All-in-one (Printer/Scanner/Copier) devices cost as good as a standalone. But I still bought a standalone, as I don’t want to burn any cash on the never ending expenses of toner/cartridge. Print is not what I am [...]

We play some 5 TT matches a day. Results of the matches are published the following day in a visual. Winners look like this. Isnt this a nice idea to to superimpose the winners with a crown ? Giving them a bit of high and yet make them look funny.

Been very busy at office. Playing around with the network. Something which bothered me over the week was, virtual lan configuration. You can read loads of pages on the web. But before you start, take a look at this picture. You may not have to spend as much time as I did.

Got across this article, written after a book “Games Indians Play” by V Raghunathan. Essence of the article is “Indians are privately smart and Publicly dumb“. Keeping the debate aside, how are you going to put a picture to this phrase ? It’s tricky to translate this statement. It has both +ve and -ve connotation. [...]

Picked it up from Landmark Book Store. Authored by Art Huffman and Illustrated by Larry Gonick. Larry has got an array of books [...]

A small explosion happened this morning. I chanced upon this word.Info Graphics. That’s the word I must have been looking for many days to describe “presenting information in pictures” What a perfect example here to tell you what I mean by that. Coffee Drinker’s cheat sheet. I will not utter a single word now.

I pick them on my way. Some times it’s a construction worker, a tailor, school going kid, security guard and so on. The road which I take to my office has no rickshaw or city buses. So there will be one or the other waiting for a lift. What do I gain ?- Squirrel Social [...]

Look at this pic. It’s a strip from a very old book titled Banish the mysteries of Electronics. Of the several illustrations it has, I liked this one. IE = IC + IB , transistor currents relation. I never understood this relation or atleast never reasoned it, when I was doing my graduation. To discover [...]
