With the advent of e-books, software readers, hand-held devices and the Project Gutenberg , you literally have access to more than a book shelf. A good e-book reader for your mobile when you are standard at some place with nothing to do is Mobipocket reader . It comes along with a good PC based e-book creator that can take simple HTML or .txt files and convert into a format usable from a mobile device. With the text files combined with Emacs and a few regexps, I was able to convert most of the files to readable html files in a few minutes and feed them back to the e-book format converter for hours of readable entertainment. So, my current bookshelf contains: Arabian Nights Robinson Crusoe by Defoe Daniel The Devil's Dictionary by Ambrose Bierce Dracula by Bram Stoker With these books with me, who would mind waiting on a long queue?
If you've read the Harry Potter series of books, you would probably know what a Pensieve is... To the rest, a Pensieve is a magical device that can store one's thoughts, categorize and interlink facts for later retrieval. This blog contains my thoughts, mostly to archive what I’ve learnt, to look back later. With my being in a technical industry, expect thoughts to be inclined towards my area of work.
