Animated Knots

How many different knots do you know? I had no idea there were any other kind than the ones I use to tie my shoe laces. I mean I know they use knots for boating and climbing, but I've never actually done either. But apparently there are loads of different kinds:

Email To The Future

Forbes has an application where you can send yourself an email and it will be delivered in 20 years. The project ends Nov 30, 2005.

I have to think about it. What will I tell myself in 20 years? What I am doing now? What my aspirations are now and for the future? I don't know. Let me sleep on it.

MTV Desi has been launched. This could probably be my only excuse to cut my cable and get a dish. I so miss Indian Pop music. Last time I went to India (a while ago, about 3 years and more may be), I bought a bunch of hindi remixes and desi pop CDs. I loved them.

But don't want to sign a year's contract with dish though. Planning to move out of my apartment in less than a year's time. MTV Desi will have to wait.
