While the cost of mobile calls has fallen, a landline is still cheaper to use if less convenient. However, the situation is changing.
"Now your mobile phone will recognise when you are calling from home and route your call through a wireless broadband hub that means, although you are calling from your mobile, you can take advantage of UK[1] landline rates.
Using Bluetooth technology, BT Fusion acts like a normal mobile when you are outside the range of the hub’s reach [1] that is, when you leave home. There’s no interruption to your conversation; instead the technology automatically and seamlessly switches over to the BT Mobile Network from the landline. "

Print version ..
I have faced this problem quiet a number of times and I think this can be a good product to make ...
I have a webpage and I want to print an article from that webpage .. but most webpages have a lot of content that the user does not want to print. In some webpages there is an option of "print version" which shows a printable format .. but in most websites that facility is not there.
So, I was thinking it will be good if there is a software which when we copy paste the stuff we want to print on to it, parses the document into different pieces and then the user can remove the pieces he doesnt want to print and then print the remaining document. An auto format option would be every more user friendly.
:D .. If I get sometime .. it is not a bad option to work on ...
what say ??

Some miscellaneous thoughts !
Lately I have been thinking a lot about these dimensions and projections.
There is some reality. i.e. matter. In an infinite dimensional space.
Suppose there is a sphere, it is a hollow sphere. And when our capability is to see only at the level of 2 dimensions, all we will be able to see a sphere's projection on 2 dimensions i.e a ring.And we think that is the reality (The biggest mistake we make). As our capacity to see increases (through knowledge) to a higher dimension say 3. We will be able to see a sphere and not a ring. And at much higher dimension it could be something else !!!. So something (ring) which we thought was the reality was not reality!!.
When our capacity reaches infinity, we will be able to see the actual reality !. and that is God !. All the rishis and gurus are all people with a lot of knowledge and they are capable of seeing "things" from a higher dimension.
If you notice, there is this thirst for knowledge in every person. And that is the desire to reach God. The thirst to "see" the reality. In terms of mathematics the thirst to reach a higher dimension !.
Excellence is all about reaching a higher dimension. When one is a kid there is a desire for things like choclates, kids even fight for a choclate. As human being grows, they have a better understanding of life. They dont fight for things like a choclate. So what is the goal of every person in life ?? To improve himself/herself. In mathematical terms, reaching a higher and higher dimension.
and Moksh and liberation is all about reaching that infinite dimension !. Where you see the reality.!!

In Love With Someone?
When you are together with that special someone, you
pretend to ignore that person.
But when that special someone is not around, you
might look around to find them.
At that moment, you are in love.
Although there is someone else who always makes you laugh,
your eyes and attention might go only to that
special someone.
Then, you are in love.
Although that special someone was supposed to have
called you long back,
to let you know of their safe arrival, your phone is quiet.
You are desperately waiting for the call!
At that moment, you are in love.
If you are much more excited for one short e-mail from
that special someone than other many long e-mails,
you are in love.
When you find yourself as one who cannot erase all the
messages in your answering machine because of one message
from that special someone, you are in love.
When you get a couple of free movie tickets, you would
not hesitate to think of that special someone.
Then, you are in love.
You keep telling yourself, "that special someone is
just a friend", but you realize that you can not
avoid that person's special attraction. At that
moment, you are in love.
While you are reading this page, if someone appears
in your mind,
then u are in LOVE with that person ..
(Yet another pick .. I hope its not illegal !!)

Another pick
Did you know that when you envy someone, it's because you really like that person?
Did you know that those who appear to be very strong in heart, are real weak and most succeptible?
Did you know that those who spend their time protecting others are the ones that really need some one to protect them?
Did you know that the three most difficult things to say are: I love you, Sorry and help me
The people who say these are actually in need of them or really feel them, and are the ones you really need to treasure, because they have said them.
Did you know that people who occupy themselves by keeping others company or helping others are the ones that actually need your company and help?
Did you know that those who dress in red are more confident in themselves?
Did you know that those who dress in yellow are those that enjoy their beauty?
Did you know that those who dress in black, are those who want to be unnoticed and need your help and understanding?
Did you know that when you help someone, the help is returned in two folds?
you know that those who need more of you are those that don't mention it to you?
Did you know that it's easier to say what you feel in writing than saying it to someone in the face? But did you know that it has more value when you say it to their face?
Did you know that what is most difficult for you to say or do is much more valuable than anything that is valuable that you can buy with money?
Did you know that if you ask for something in faith, your wishes are granted?
Did you know that you can make your dreams come true, like falling in love, becoming rich, staying healthy, if you ask for it by faith, and if you really knew, you'd be surprised by what you could do.

Three Words
There are many things that you can do to strengthen your relationships.
Often the most effective thing you can do involves saying just three words.
When spoken sincerely, these statements often have the power to develop new
friendships, deepen old ones and even bring healing to relationships that
have sourerd.
The following three-word phrases can be tools to help develop every
relationship.
1.Let me help
Good friends see a need and then try to fill it. When they see a hurt they
do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they jump in and help out.
2. I understand you.
People become closer and enjoy each other more when the other person accepts
and understands them. Letting your spouse know - in so many little ways -
that you understand them, is one of the most powerful tools for healing your
relationship. And this can apply to any relationship.
3. I respect you
Respect is another way of showing love. Respect demonstrates that another
person is a true equal. If you talk to your children as if they were adults
you will strengthen the bonds and become closer friends. This applies to
all interpersonal relationships.
4. I miss you.
Perhaps more marriages could be saved and strengthened if couples simply and
sincerely said to each other "I miss you." This powerful affirmation tells
partners they are wanted, needed, desired and loved. Consider how important
you would feel, if you received an unexpected phone call from your spouse in
the middle of your workday, just to say "I miss you."
5. Maybe you're right.
This phrase is very effective in diffusing an argument. The implication
when you say "maybe you're right" is the humility of admitting, "maybe I'm
wrong". Let's face it. When you have an argument with someone, al l you
normally do is solidify the other person's point of view. They, or you, will
not likely change their position and you run the risk of seriously damaging
the relationship between you. Saying "maybe you're right" can open the door
to explore the subject more. You may then have the opportunity to express
your view in a way that is understandable to the other person.
6. Please forgive me
Many broken relationships could be restored and healed if people would admit
their mistakes and ask for forgiveness. All of us are vulnerable to faults,
foibles and failures. A man should never be ashamed to own up that he has
been in the wrong, which is saying, in other words, that he is wiser today
than he was yesterday.
7. I thank you.
Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who enjoy the
companionship of good, close friends are those who don't take daily
courtesies for granted. The y are quick to thank their friends for their many
ex-pressions of kindness. On the other hand, people whose circle of friends
is severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude.
8. Count on me
A friend is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an essential
ingredient for true friendship. It is the emotional glue that bonds people.
Those that are rich in their relationships tend to be steady and true
friends. When troubles come, a good friend is there indicating "you can
count on me."
9. I'll be there
If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night, to take a
sick child to hospital, or when your car has broken down some miles from
home, you will know how good it feels to hear the phrase "I'll be there."
Being there for another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we are
truly present for other people, important things happen to them and us. We
are renewed in love and friendship. We are restored emotionally and
spiritually. Being there is at the very core of civility.
10. Go for it
We are all unique individuals. Don't try to get your friends to conform to
your ideals. Support them in pursuing their interests, no matter how far
out they seem to you. God has given everyone dreams, dreams that are unique
to that person only. Support and encourage your friends to follow their
dreams. Tell them to "go for it."
B o n u s : 11. I love you
Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling someone
that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs. The
need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted. Your spouse, your
children, your friends and you, all need to hear those three little words:
"I love you." Love is a choice. You can love even when the feeling is
gone.

What is this phenomenon ?!
I see forwards from many of my friends saying "realise the importance of relationships in life and do your part of it to live a happy life". But what I see in reality is something quite different.
Where is the mistake? What went wrong? Is it because forwards are just meant to be forwards and are meant to be forgtten after having some good time reading them? or the whole corporate world is isolating their employees from the world outside, breaking the means of communication if not literally,but implicitly by putting heavy load on individuals leaving no time for them to "live" .. but just "work"?
I ask this question to my friends. How many of you can confidently say that you are doing your part of the relationship?. Be True to yourselves. You are not answerable to anyone, but at the same time remember that you cannot escape from yourself.
I see my friends forming new relationships at their workplace. Good and great that there are new people in their life and that is how one's life is supposed to be. But in the joy of having new friends and great moments of fun, I advice my friends not to forget the ones they met before (their older friends).
"Busy", "Tied up", "Hectic", "No time", "Deadline" are some of the reasons I hear. True that work is hectic, no doubt about that but I think it is important that one takes time off to make sure that his/her relationships are not strained. Giving a reason is not going to bring back your relationship to the state it was before.
Another class of friends are the ones who went to higher studies abroad. "Hectic work", "Exams", "Quizzes". In the weekends, enjoing the beauty of the new world around them!. Where is all this leading to !.
It is my sincere advice to my friends that by making sure that your "true" friends are not feeling uncomfortable/missing you, make yourself and your life more lively and meaningful.
Take time out from your "cyber world" and "New found land" friends and wake up before it is too late and things turn to worse in the "real world" ...

Some important definitions we overlook ..
Engineering :: Engineering applies scientific and technical knowledge to solve human problems. Engineers use imagination, judgment, reasoning and experience to apply science, technology, mathematics, and practical experience. The result is the design, production, and operation of useful objects or processes.
Software engineering :: Software engineering is the profession that creates and maintains software applications by applying technologies and practices from computer science, project management, engineering, application domains, and other fields.
Software :: Software is the set of instructions that enables computer hardware to perform useful work.
SE pioneers include Barry Boehm, Fred Brooks, C. A. R. Hoare, and David Parnas. There is extensive debate about what SE is, who qualifies as a SE, who sets the standards, etc.
