LJ Meet Pictures

Sunday, January 18, 2004

premshree and I are in the Virar fast train as I type this. I’m uploading pictures from today’s LJ meet. Being online from a moving train is a unique experience. Andheri is about 40 minutes from Churchgate. The last time I was on this route, about five years ago, the only way to spend the time was by either breathing down someone’s neck, or reading a book. Now I’m going to be online the whole distance, and everybody around me is going to be staring at my screen throughout.

The second picture above is my current wallpaper. Hari brought along his camera too and took some pictures. I’ll upload those later when I’m back at his place. More »

Update: I didn’t post this from the train after all. LJ’s Santa cluster was in read-only mode for the same period that I was on the train. I’m back at Hari’s place now. I just remembered that this day, five years ago, was my first day at Chip magazine, at the company that later came to be called Jasubhai Digital Media, and now publishes Digit. How time flies!

Jace, I think you need to update your geek code:

GEEK MACINTOSH CODE [M-]
Macs suck. All real geeks have a character prompt.

  they're called cell phones. Jace uses Reliance, which provides internet connectivity through their phones.

  God bless Reliance IndiaMobile. I had uninterrupted Internet access for over half an hour and 22 kilometres.

    Ah, so Churchgate to Andheri is 22 kms. Hmm. The last time I was there, I did Andheri to Bombay Central, which should be about 18 kms at least, in 20 mins.! Those trains rock.
