Two steps from hell...

Well today was a day of many things happening. So i think i will put them down one by one so that it will be easier. Today started off with something rather unusual and it was that my mobile was having speeds of 1mb+ i was confused and started to see more, youtube in HD and all those stuff. I had nearly 1.3 gb balance in phone which i finished in one night and now the remaining balacne is 100mb. Well it was fast. I stumbled upon a lot of things yesterday and on of those is the title of this entry too...First off...

Microsoft Windows 8 Developers Preview

Yes its out and i have finished downloading the 3.3gb 64-bit version of it, its there in deepak's system (from which i am typing this entry too) but he is scared that it will erase the data on his system. Well windows 8 is visually stunning and is based on the performance of windows 7. The new start screen and tiles and task manager takes all the features to a whole new level, and not to mention the apps too. Its free for download and i would recommend everyone who has experience of beta testing to try it out. It is an OS  which was meant for touch i guess as most of the features are for touch. Well cant wait to try the final version.

This is the link to MS channel and look at their videos for a better understanding...

Well the name is quite weird isn't it, well don't take it wrong. This is a music production company that creates music for trailers and stuff. They are not known much but we all know them very well, they did the trailer for Batman, Twilight, Star Trek etc, i mean the list just goes on. Well it must be obvious from where i found out about them right, ya the music in the trailer for mass effect was done by them. Mass effect 2 and 3, and also assassins creed brotherhood too. The have released four albums i guess, Invincible is my favorite. The studio was founded by Nick Phoenix and Thomas.J.Bergersen. Its in LA, California and they specialize in epic trailer music.

Well today was one of those days when getting up feels like so bad and you just want to stay in bed. Well work was piling up and so had to get up and start. With the research i did a few days back on the logo for my card I finally decided to use the inspiration of Maori. Well it would be a good idea to tell about them here... 'Maori are the indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand, and their story is both long and intriguing. On the basis of oral records, archaeological finds and genetic analyses, historical treatises place the arrival of Maori in New Zealand in the thirteenth century AD. The origin of Maori has been reliably traced to the islands of Eastern Polynesia, and their journey to New Zealand occurred in a number of epic waka (canoe) voyages over a significant period of time. These journeys established Maori as daring and resourceful adventurers, and as one of the greatest navigating peoples of all time. Maori Culture Contemporary Maori culture has been shaped by the ...
