The Epic experience !

The Epic .. well ! the first Indian browser encapsulating the needs and flexibilty of the Indian surfers..
Developed by a Bangalore based software company over the  Mozilla   Firefox Platform .
At the first encounter ,it gives you an experience  of total Add-ons..
To be accurate/contrary  here ..mine was " The Epic has stopped working !"
Its one-source service in all spheres of  news(local + national ) ,entertainment(latest Hollywood+ Bollywood +Regional +  Music Albums),sports , softwares,videos -channels,  the antivirus enhancement(E Set),and writing in 12 Indian languages  ...all these are  worth to be mentioned ! Also the wide variety of excellent Add-ons as I  previously said , along the sidebar  ..are really time saving and accurate !
Equipped with these ,Epic seems  pretty handy loaded with eye candy elements,providing a unique Indian browsing experience !
Apart from it , technically speaking (can do so now .. @the IT Engineer* tag) it  actually holds no innovation ...all appreciation it may owe is attributed to the Mozilla for sure ! But then,I may be wrong here from commercial point of view ...I guess their innovation lies in the very idea of their service mode ; easy approach and user friendliness facilitated  as a mall shopping ...all at one situ ! Why didnt anyone get this idea before ?  It  uses some features of Chrome  also ,however the install-uninstall syndrome may be a bit irritating initially .Look wise ..I would  say it needed a litte more furnishing !


Anyways ,whether or how far the Epic's hopes would be justified depends upon the newly-epiced  crowd of Indian browsers  :)........and that includes bloggers too !!

bye !
Good Night India !

P.S : Listening  to  the newly Acon & Enrique Euphoria at the Epic ;; Signing off  this post through Epic !

Sabse Bada Rupaiya !

contd............

Finalised is the symbol today by the cabinet !

An amalgam of the Devanagari ‘Ra’ and the Roman capital ‘R’ without the stem…. [it] is based on the Tricolour and “arithmetic equivalence”. While the white space between the two horizontal lines gives the impression of the national flag with the Ashok Chakra, the two bold parallel lines stand for ‘equals to’, representing balance in the economy, both within and with other economies of the world.

Sabse Bada Rupaiya !

 Will I take back home a fatter salary ?

Will my investments yield higher returns ?

Will car prices fall ?

Will my business benefit ?

Well ! such may be the picture common of us all .. 

truly ! sabse bada rupaiya !!

but there is another India that many of us have a passing acquitance with !Its an India of several hundred million people who barely make a few rupees a day !!

And what if the meagre they make has  the sign changed now ??

(Beg your pardon for the stupidity here ,intend to ignore the poverty- emotions,they  appear too repetitive to read on/hear of  !)

The Finance ministry has shortlisted five symbols for the rupee sign, all of them designed to mirror the country’s rich history and culture. All the five shortlisted designs are simple and uncomplicated, for both countrymen and global .

In the Union Budget 2010 speech, the finance minister Pranab Mukherjee announced that the Indian rupee will soon join a select league of global currencies by having a distinct symbol...

What now then .....the keyboards would have an additional sign next to $ ...The notes would be revived and there would be a new format for  price tags !!

However  it is to be brooded over ..whether mere symbols can ameliorate the scenario!!

However in the anticipation of the same ,I take your leave now :):)

 cya ,

love, 

astha :)

The 11 Number !!

Well ...there are always ample scopes of resuming a genuine blog! Quoting this ....I think of a new blog entry via the 11 no. bus..

The LKO transport as  I talk of has seen consistent improvement during the last few years.The capital has almost  bid bye to the khatara buses..which have for long been replaced by the renovated CNG ,electronic display ones..I wonder when/ifever LKO would have the tromb/metro culture  but the autos yes ! ..run parallel to the buses,while the rickshaws stay limited ..If I get critical,they are confined to sections,say aunties returning after afternoon shopping or with the kids after school or ...or to the uncles across the veg-fruit markets,picking up milk-bread packets  or...or kaki-kakas who choose it as a return way of evening walks ! (instances totally needless here :P).

And genuinely to talk of fares, if I confine the comparison within U.P. , it is a bit more with the autos asking more !(Nawab chale gaye ..jane kahan jaageer rakh gaye !).
From 6 A.M onwards ,running on the well furnished ,nicely greased roads (courtesy:CM) of Gomtinagar,these buses wont let you wait for more than 10 minutes, and that you can well pass sharing glances with Ms deepika @BSNL hoardings or watching people who are watching you,,keeping in mind that it takes 8.2 seconds to fall in love  at the first sight !......and while you are up  at the bus  ,follow some 'no-rules' like always standing ..what care the entire bus is vacant for you ..eyeing more frequently the people on the track than in the bus,missing no inner happenings,sighing off c'mon uncle !! c'mon aunty !! when they say/do something which appears invalid to you !  and  not choosing to pay unless the conductor comes to you and  asks for ! ,,apply  'keep the change' fundas etc etc ...

change se yaad aya !!!would wish to change post for another one ..'The sign change of rupee'!!

c u then :)
 regards ,

astha  !
