Microsoft Windows 7 and Open Source

You might be wondering why I have chosen such an eccentric title for this post. Microsoft and Open Source don't go with each other. And if you are a Windoze bunny, you might have probably downloaded the beta version of the next installment of Windows, i.e Windows 7. If you haven't you can check the screenshots [here](https://windows7news.com/windows-7-screenshots/). If a first glance at the screenshots make you gape in awe, then you probably haven't touched a glass of wine before. If it doesn't look interesting to you then probably you drink a lot of wine. 😀 But what has wine to do with Windows. Wine has everything to do with Windows. Wine is a Windows Emulator for linux. 😀 Seeing the screenshots, I can only infer one thing. Microsoft is finally doing justice to the name of its OS. It's quite evident that the previous versions didn't have much transparency and subsequent versions have been having increased transparency. Who knows, probably Windows 15 will have a very high transparency that you can actually see your neighbour through your monitor just as you can through a window. Now I get the pun in the OS's name. 😀

How do people find time for blogging

As I was going through my profile on Orkut, I came across a link I had added onto my "About me" column, which was this blog. I came to know that I had posted the last post of this blog in December 2007, almost a quarter year before. I'm pretty amazed by people who blog everyday. How do these guys find time? Or more appropriately how do these people remember that they should write a blog? Anyway, with the usual oath that I would blog more regularly, I start of with this blog's theme.
