Maha Shivratri

Hmmm, yeah so like every year we went to these temples. Started early today as we wanted to go to some extra ones.. Went to Sham Baba mandir first in Kachiguda and then to Shiv Mandir a Charminar. You know the whole deco's and look of the place make you feel so special. So many lights all around, everything open till middle of the night, the cops not interfering in the jantaa ka personal affair and people enjoying their festival.

Waise Wish you all a very Happy Maha Shivratri.. We finished Kachiguda ka mandir and then went to Charminar, the place to be at this time you know. If you haven't been there on shivratri night, you haven't seen what beauty Charminar area has then.. Sparkling with lights, Decorations, Traffic and a lot of crowd. \

Sometimes the things we don't really like also are fun, like traffic and public rush. But on festivals when you are a part of all this, it automatically becomes encouraging and you start liking it just for that very moment.

I asked a cop if I cud park the car near his van, he told me to park it at the "Dava Khana".. We parked the car at the "Dava khana" as everyone calls it there and went to the mandir. Took about an hour to finish the darshan. It wasnt VERY crowded at the temple but the chantings and bhajans were going on and not one person wanted to move and give way to others.

Then went to the another mandir in the lane beside Shiv Mandir and finished the darshan quickly and came out. There was this guy making something in a big vessel with loads of ice.. Asked him about it and he said it was Bhaang. So it was obvious that Ankit and Me wanted to taste it.. Muhahaha.. Bought a class of it and had it. It tasted same like Thandai, dint know much difference between thandai and what exactly should Bhaang should taste like. Tasted it for the first time afterall.. :P

And then we went to Haridwar hotel at Sidambar Bazar and had our favourite idly and Palak Paneer Dosa.. Aur phir wapas ghar :)

My iPhone and Blackberry Experience :)

I was only a Nokia fan before, dint like the Apple iPhone when it released but started liking it when the iPhone 3G released dunno for what reason :-P My friend Vishru got an iPhone for me from the states.. Loved using it though had to adjust in some cases.. Bought an iPhone 3GS.. The main problems I faced was Group Texting.. Im a messaging freak.. And there was no option in iPhone to send messages to a group, every time I had to select the peep's whom I wanna msg.. Though the camera is really good, flash in it would be like cream on a cake.. Then low battery life.. You play games on it (the main purpose of iPhone is to get Entertained..) and your phone's battery will dip like you throw something from the 100th floor and it falls down in seconds..lol.. and multi tasking, another major concern.. Even with all this prob's, I liked using it... It has the best Browser compared to all other phones, the mailing is fine.. Attaching the pics to the mail was the best thing I loved about iPhone.. No other phone still gives such an easy attachment option :) But now I have upgraded my iPhone to iOS4.1 and using it happily.. Have multi tasking & have group sms'ing so loving it all the more..

One of my friends then Roop bought a Blackberry last year in Jan or Feb I dont remember :-P.. I had no idea about blackberry's then.. He knew about the mobile.. I saw the features and options, user friendliness, Blackberry Messenger, emailing and what not.. It had everything.. I was crazy about it as soon as I got to know about all that a Blackberry offered.. Some of the prob's I was facing in an iPhone were all vanished in the blackberry.. I bought one and started using it.. Was awesome to have it in my hands.. I could send messages to groups, the phone allowed multi tasking though the games and applications for blackberry are very less, its a Business Mobile, has all what it needs.. I could download and save files, music in a blackberry which in an iPhone wasn't possible.. The battery was must better.. The emailing options were good.. The push mail feature as the best.. I could

Lol.. Both these phone have their own style of use.. The new iPhone 4 had a HD camera with flash.. Thats makes it even better and a faster processor..

Well my Verdict goes in favour of both (cuz I use both of em :-P)

Verdict: If your more about your music and photos and also an avid youtube streamer the iPhone 3GS would be your first choice. If you prefer to be in the loop with your friends and family you can’t go wrong with the Blackberry, the new BBM makes it the ultimate socializing handheld. Both devices are considered the best in the smart phone industry so this dilemma would be better resolved depending on your personal usage. :)
