Stage6, of the high quality DivX video streaming fame, has shut down. And it’s not even April Fools’ Day. There were feelers sent out by the folks at DivX a few days before but I never really paid heed. This is the worst piece of news I’ve heard in years. Their homepage shows this message:

I have trashed some of the annoying elements of social networks, and mildly joked about Orkut in an earlier post. Of course, whether the ‘humour’ actually came through is entirely up to the readers. But these days I have seen stuff going on in social networks that are genuinely exciting.
In fact I should be saying […]

I saw a spike in my site stats today. Not that the spike was particularly steep. But the stat whore that I can be on occasions, I casually looked at my search engine terms for the day:

free stream sites like tv links

Yes I admit I have been guilty of baiting search engines for the title, but trust me, there has been reasonable amount of research going into this post. So keep reading.
The best part of internet these days is the sheer wealth of streaming media that is available in video form. The popularity of sites like […]

When Scoble gave that now famous interview about managing his 622 feeds a day, he mentioned that one of the few disadvantages of Google Reader was the lack of an offline reading facility.
It now appears that biggies like Google actually listen to comments of A-list bloggers like him. Although I doubt they might have […]

Now after systematically dismantling the hold of Internet Explorer over the user’s internet browsing experience, comes another threat - this time to proprietary media players. Songbird might not only hurt Microsoft here, but also other biggies who are much more prominent in the post-ipod world.
For the geeks (if they haven’t already heard of it, that […]

There has been a lot of furore over the painting of arts student Chandramohan. We know how our government protects every micro-community in India that takes offence to anything ranging from art work to some one even thinking offensive thoughts.

The following post, although stems from football, is very much relevant for any other form of entertainment from video hosting sites like Youtube. I had posted this on Soccerlens, but feel it to be fairly general to be posted here too. One doesn’t need to know football to get the point of this post. So […]

Part of the attraction of setting out to your own domain is the opportunity it affords one to fully customize the look of the blog, and hence maximize the chances of making money off it. As regular visitors might note, this blog is not big on the monetizing front. Yet.

Well, I don’t know how long it will last but if you go here it will direct you to enter the MySpace URL of the particular band that you are interested in.
This is the easiest way to download songs from MySpace. All you need to do is copy and paste the bands homepage into […]
This is my blog, as you might have realised it by now. Of course, since you actually scrolled down this far, it might disappoint you slightly if that was all you got to know after making the effort.
