Safari for Windows - The sleek and fast apple browser comes to Windows world. I’ve installed it in my windows machine and surfed for a while. The first impression is that, it’s faster than both IE7 and Firefox, but at the same time it’s buggier, in an hour browsing it crashed twice (it’s currently in beta and I’m sure it’ll be fixed soon).
iPhone to Support Third-Party Web 2.0 Applications - So, Apple is allowing the developers to make iPhone apps and host them on their own servers. iPhone is using full Safari-based browser.

Go and download a free DivX Pro for Mac by giving your email address. The license will be sent to your email address. No word on why they’re giving it for free, but who cares. It’s a good chance to get an excellent video player worth 20 bucks for free. I’ve already downloaded and installed mine. Act quickly!

Strange and unusual deaths…
Austrian Hans Steininger was famous for having the world’s longest beard (it was 4.5 feet or nearly 1.4 m long) and for dying because of it.
One day in 1567, there was a fire in town and in his haste Hans forgot to roll up his beard. He accidentally stepped on his beard, lost balance, stumbled, broke his neck and died!

Just wanted to share some striking images that I came across recently. I’ve compiled them here (in no particular order), I think they’re very powerful, and convey something that would be very difficult to express with words alone, so I stop my useless words here, take a look…, there’s no doubt that a picture is worth a thousand words!
Hiroshima, the pictures they didn’t want us to see (This is something we must NEVER forget).
The Most Dangerous Roads in the World (Includes Nepalese roads too)

A funny guide for women who’re interested in dating geeks.
You may be thinking what do these socially awkward, checky-shirt clad specimens have to offer me? Ok, so your average geek may not be exactly Brad Pitt but, from my own experiences, geeks are perfect boyfriend material. They are honest, devoted, and faithful. They can fix your computer when it breaks. Other women are unlikely to steal them, and your parents will love them. Most importantly one day their geeky skills will earn them a mint!

Like everyone else I’ve been following the wild iPhone rumors from a long time, and was really happy to see it happen today. Can’t wait to get my hands on it, although they’ll be releasing it in Asia only on 2008. This small device is packed with a lot of amazing features, it’s a:
Widescreen iPod
Revolutionary Phone
Breakthrough Internet Device
High Technology
Everything looks wonderful but I’m just wondering how effective the on-screen keyboard for typing emails and sms would be! Lets wait and see.
Useful links to give you a full dose of iPhone before you can get hold of one:

Watch the iPhone Introduction by Steve Jobs (video on demand, requires QuickTime)
