Statement :let me make it clear , as if now ,on March 5 2010 ..lampp and Status.net wont work ..you would get error of Deprecation and no functionality ..

Reason:Status.net [From Git ]right works till php 5.2 and lampp comes with Php-5.3 ;  it will work with ubuntu 9.10 karmic cause it comes prepackaged with PHP 5.2.10

Ref:

i will write more of my experience of status.net ,later on Smile

P.S: use Status.net 0.9 because 0.8 complains a lot about extension tidy and that extension is one major in ass but if you still want it ,,use pecl /pear like

pecl install tidy

to get it

People are right when they call life a struggle. Not because you’re every time struggling with things but as a struggle with the good and the bad. The adjectives apply to everything, from “what you do” to “how you do”. As we were taught in our school, there are always two ways of doing things, the good way – the difficult one but with benefits of learning, peace, success and everything. And theres the bad way of doing things, which is quite easy but has some side-effects such as no mental peace, tension and most importantly, no guarantee of future success.

Its always been taught to follow the good way, no matter what we do or we think about doing. But well, my question is: who decides about right and wrong, the good and the bad? Well, the answer may seem to be simple enough… we just know it since childhood.. Stealing is bad, working is good and whatever. But I would say that these things are just defined by society, things which the majority of people were comfortable with were termed as right and people against it were bad.

But as the history has seen it, people who went against the ideal beliefs and common notions turned out to be more successful, renowned and seen by many as inspirations. This is after they have “successfully” proved themselves. Before that, they were intimidated, criticized and stopped by all. They only had one thing with them when they fought the world and that is, a dream, a vision. With this, they went straight ahead, pushing their enemies from their way until the final goal. What people need to learn is that, theres nothing wrong in going against the world, the common beliefs, the still boring lifestyle that we live. Theres probably a brighter future, a better life ahead.

Some time in their lifetime, every man/woman needs a change, everyone wants to do what they want. But as far as I can say, there must be only 10% people out there (at least in India), who are doing what they love or are happy with their lives. The rest are still listening to the faint music of their heart but aren’t doing anything for it. We just don’t know how to live. Neither we live for ourselves, nor for anyone else. We are just like those monkeys who are fighting among themselves, jealous of each other and are not self-satisfied either. Our hunger for more has made us forget what we actually are, what we intend to be, what is our dream, what makes us happy. The definition of all these things have changed over the time. Now probably its dependent on our neighbor’s “dictionary of life”.

We should learn to decide our own lives and not based on someone else’s dreams and demands. Define your own good and bad and for yourself, make your own stance for it. Its about our own decisions, even if they turn out to be drastically hazardous for our life, who cares… at least we wont be cribbing and cursing the other person for it. Wink And theres always another door waiting to be opened.
The moment we learn this, we could be the happiest people of the flock. But as they say, it isn’t easy… but not impossible too.

[This comes as a result of the fact that I am still struggling with my own thoughts and beliefs, my abilities and my needs. I'm still hanging between these on a loose string, not able to grab any one of them, afraid of falling off too soon. This is the conflict between my mind and heart which I am feeling these days... Driving at 20 on the city roads, reminding me of my long lived dream of slowing down the pace of life, which I know, nobody cares...]

After discontinuing with their geocities services, Yahoo! is now discontinuing their mobile services as well. I got this mail today from them:

Dear Yahoo! Go user,

Yahoo! Go will be discontinued on January 12, 2010, at 12:00 a.m. PST, so that we may focus on simplifying and enhancing your future mobile Web experiences. After this date, you will no longer be able to use Yahoo! Go 2.0 or 3.0 from your mobile phone.

Provided, that Yahoo! Go is a very good application with a lot of features like mail, news, scores, weather..all incorporated into one, no wonder they are still discontinuing this product. WTF  is wrong with Yahoo! they are withdrawing their mostly used services and then they are running this ad campaign of “Yahoo! – Its You” or whatever. I think that deal with Microsoft is proving to be not so successful when it comes to saving the company from big rivals like Google. In fact, with Yahoo! fukked like anything, we cannot expect MS to successfully rise up against Google.

Don’t know what these MS guys are doing to one of the first web service portal of the world, which so many people still love. Yahoo! doesn’t need MS, needs a godfather who can save it… heard about Web 3.0, yahoo guys?
