Indian Internet sucks.

this is a 384kbps unlimited connection. We have higher speeds but with insane caps. 2Mbps with a limit of 1 GB a month!
- Rahul Das
I get 256kbps here. They call it *broadband*. I'm on an unlimited connection as well. I wonder for what the heck they don't give us better speeds.
- Shankar Ganesh
~750 mi is really too much. Could not you find a nearer ISP?
- Alp
Yeah it was in Lahore, Pakistan. Its nearer but had a ping of 500+ ms!
- Rahul Das
just checked it now and i hit a 1.28 Mb/s d/w http://www.speedtest.net/result... .. but its usually slower.. on top of that i think my ISP is throttling during unlimited hours
- Azeem
Comparing this to what we had two years back, this is awesome. Imagine we using the web on a 28 kbps connection !! We used to. We are getting better and better with the internet and the pipes.'
- Aravind Jose
@Aravind: I remember dial up. Used to take me half an hour to download 3MB! Plus the phone bills were legendary!
- Rahul Das
remember the sound of the modem dialing?
- Azeem
i remember waiting to see the google page load part by part. :)
- Shankar Ganesh
Ouch!
- David Cook
Funny, but I don't feel so bad anymore
- Michael Fidler
Wow. That's only slightly better than modem speeds. Oh, that was covered. Roight.

Mr.Tweet (@MrTweet) report can be really lame if you follow very few people and if you have @Scobleizer + @louisgray in your follows list
It's always Scoble's fault! (Or mine, apparently!)
- Louis Gray
signed up at mrtweet weeks ago... got nothing
- BEX
@louis apparently its neither of your fault, i think Mr.Tweet simply finds out the intersection of the friends set of all your friends..
- Azeem
Ive decided not to complain about power failures anymore, its useless..
Tomorrow's assignment: Write 3 sets of english alphabets: All Caps, Small Case, and miXeD caSE. Sounds like fun!
Yuvi, which college do u go to?
- Kamath (नमः)
KCG Tech, but this is standard issue everywhere in TN
- Yuvi
you have to be kidding! Even we had Professional Communication which was pretty lame but nowhere as lame as this!
- Rahul Das
@rahul its engineering drawing
- Azeem
Oh I know. I went to Adhiyamaan college in Hosur (Madras Univ). So I know * exactly* what you are talking about. If it's any consolation...it doesn't get better ;).
- Kamath (नमः)
Well, atleast this ends in 1 year.
- Yuvi
aah engineering drawing. I guess that does make more sense. I remember drawing normal cuboids from all possible angles and perspectives. I was quite good at it too!
- Rahul Das
@Rahul; Well, I'm good at construction. Letters are killing me though - They are freehand! Yet, they should be in proper ratio. Darn :(
- Yuvi
Fortunately, I wasn't in an engineering program (computer science was a different thing at my school) so didn't have to do engineering drawing. Some of my friends were, though. Personally, I think I just wouldn't have a degree if that were a requirement.

I guess the only person that knows why he hung on is him?
- Brian Sullivan
you would assume so...maybe he thought he might bounce back up again! :)
- Zee.
It's a reflex when you're falling, you want to hold onto something for as long as possible.
- Andrew Trinh
I think that's actually a cooler trick than vaulting the pole.
- Ray Grieselhuber
If it is a reflex I would think that resisting the reflex would be something a pole vaulter would normally do?
- Brian Sullivan
Pole vaulters release when they know where they want to drop, in this case this wasn't planned so you'd hold onto something for dear life. At least until your brain comes into action again.
- Andrew Trinh
Andrew, that's interesting - you've pole vaulted before?
- Zee.
:\
- Mona Nomura
i wonder what the poles are made of
- Azeem
it's true - it's amazing how it just doesn't snap.
- Zee.
he held on because he was over the pit you place your pole into which has no padding - all things considered he probably had a softer landing than letting go at top
- mike "glemak" dunn
Oh the relief when I realised it wasn't the one where the guy comes down on the pole...perfectly on his daddy bag
- Toby Graham
Dude, let go of the damn thing!!!!

this represents my first 3 weeks of friendfeeding. fail after fail until I finally got some traction.
- Josh Haley
Andrew's right, I've polevaulted and the instinct is to hang on. Mind you I thought he was going to land astride the bar ;-)
- Sally Church
I would love to see the spectators' reaction to this.
- Rahul Das
it was actually on abc it says there on the bottom right...not sure whether live or not.

What I don't get is why he keeps on doing that over and over and fail each time.. Persistent guy! o_ô

- Mike Reynolds
If I keep watching, on one repetition, he will let go. It will not be pretty.
- Slappy Line
Is he *STILL* trying? Lord... get a clue dude. ;)

There is an "undo" link at the top after you delete a message. I tried to model much of fftogo after the FriendFeed experience. Everything you do can be undone.

Sorry for the inconvenience. But now you know! Next time you do this by accident you can just wait for it to load and click undo.

I love it because it enables me to contact multiple vendors with just one click (they send me their contact info by SMS and email).. Interesting stuff is, they also send ping to the vendors that I am interested in their service and I get contacted by vendors themselves and I can initiate the conversation that way!
