Absolutely stunning creative and inspirational Wikileaks Images

I have been following wikileaks for a long time now. This website has given journalism a new image. Website launched in 2006 has gained a lot of popularity. Website won a lot of awards as well. Everything funded by people around the world.

More about Wikileaks : WikiLeaks (sometimes Wikileaks) is an international organization that publishes anonymous submissions and leaks of otherwise unavailable documents while preserving the anonymity of sources. Its website, launched in 2006, is run by The Sunshine Press. Within a year of its launch, the site claimed a database that had grown to more than 1.2 million documents.

The organization has described itself as having been founded by Chinese dissidents, as well as journalists, mathematicians, and start-up company technologists from the U.S., Taiwan, Europe, Australia, and South Africa. Newspaper articles and The New Yorker magazine (June 7, 2010) describe Julian Assange, an Australian journalist and Internet activist, as its director.

How religion in the world is so illogical

Today will mark as a historical day in Indian history as we get verdict on Babri Masjid. Allahabad High Court, today will be settling the dispute over the Ram Janmabhoomi – Babri Masjid, which has remained unresolved for decades or I must say centuries?  Everyone might be waiting for the verdict eagerly but I am not. I don’t think it makes any sense to announce verdict just before the CWG 2010. Indian Government is already facing criticism with the common wealth games. And the verdict at this point of time could really make things worse. What if the verdict stirs up some violence and players and authorities gets hurt? Military would not be able to do anything if 2-3 lac people come out of their houses and try to raid the CWG venue. The same thing happened during the demolition of the Babri Masjid. I really wish this verdict could have been postponed. I feel this verdict date has been ill planned when government knew that Delhi would be hosting Common Wealth Games in this month. Everyone is speculating social unrest in the country as the words come out of the court this afternoon.

Indian Government asking Social Networks and Google to censor political parties and politicians. But why?

Recently read a news about US government asking Google to provide lots and lots of data related which is related to the services Google provides. I am sure they must be utilizing this data for get to the corrupts. And then automatically me being a typical Indian wanted to check our country’s  rank in that list. To my surprise we rank 3rd in that list after US and Brazil. Wow.. It feels great to be in a such a list. Well that’s one side of the story I was thinking. But after reading the data requests that Google received I started thinking about what would our government departments have actually asked for. Checkout for analysis after the break.

Minimalist, Typographic and Simple WordPress Theme – Revolutioners Theme ver 1.0

I have been working on a theme for a long time now. I am pleased to announce my first ever theme. I have named it revolutioners on my own blog. This theme is inspired from an existing tutorial created by Jon Phillips. I have worked up on the design and layout and customized it to my needs. I have always wanted to have a WordPress theme with lots of widgets. Most importantly the widgetized footer. I really feel the widgetized footer gives a theme a professionalism and grace. And this theme is so amazingly simple and minimalist that it just loads in seconds. Just check this post out where I have done a thorough analysis of the revolutioners theme with the use of various website speed test tools. OK enough of talk lets look at the design and what I have in store for you guys. This is how the layout looks like.

7 Tools to check your website / blog speed

Alright, another post for my blogger friends. I am on a limited bandwidth host and not always but most of the time I run out of bandwidth every month. So I decided to slip down my blog loading time and have been working on that very seriously. And that is because of two reasons basically. One, I don’t want my readers to wait for ages to load a particular page. Second, I don’t want to end up paying extra money to my host for extra bandwidth. The motive behind this blog to put across my thoughts, which as per me do not need catchy images. By the way I am very fond of creating images and then adding them to the post. But somehow I now realized that its not good to have a blog/website which takes a lot of time to load. People just close the window if the website takes a fraction of second long. I just don’t want to miss that moment. I want more and more people to come on my blog and keep coming.
