Personalized google search page

Recently, when I visited a fren of mine, I saw that instead of the regular Google text when we visit www.google.com, he had his name instead. Was quite fascinated and asked him how I could do it. Its pretty easy too. And now I have my personal Google search page too. Chk out the link http://funnylogo.info/engines/Google/Red/Ssmriti.aspx to see the page.

If any of you guy's interested, here's how you can do it:
  1. type the url www.007google.com. you'll be redirected to the page http://www.funnylogo.info/create.asp
  2. type any text you want to display and choose the color and text style
  3. then click on 'Create My Search Engine' and bingo, you have your own search engine. you can even make it your homepage (as i have done with mine).

Strange London

Before I came to London, I had imagined it quite like shown in the Bollywood movies, with tall buildings, great sceneries n all. But, when I finally came here, things were quite different. Not tht the reality was shocking. London is a beautiful city. But, except for a few commercial places, rest of London (and in fact outside London too) is like a town. Houses are all the same wherever you go. So, tht is pretty confusing coz you can't distinguish one place from another. Also, I came across a number of things that i found as strange (coz these things don't happen in Nepal):

  1. Vehicles have number plates in 2 colors. Its white in the front of the vehicle and yellow behind. (I remember my fren n I discussing abt his uncle's car number plate color. He said tht it was white and I was sure tht it was yellow. As it turned out, we were both rite.)
  2. Here, people don't blow horns of their vehicles. Since coming here, I have only heard horn blowing once, n tht was quite new to my ears. Otherwise, no one blows horns, even when the vehicles' rite behind you.
  3. Pedestrians are kings here. While crossing roads, pedestrians get first priority.

As I come across more interesting things here, will keep on updating my blog. Till then, get to know London a little more thru this post.

Latest addition:

  • In Chitwan, i remember people telling me not to go outside at nite coz you have rhinocerous running wild re. In London, its normal to see fox near your neighbourhood re. Saw one near where i live too. (Thought my fren was making a fool of me when he said tht it was a fox. Didnt believe him at first. hehe)

A must read

when i was sent this report to read, i couldn't help but laugh loud coz this is so very silly n hilarious. i just couldn't imagine anjesh dai to be thinking something like this. n tht too when he was in grade eight. hehe.

we all thought tht this was one report tht people would luv to read. so a fren posted this letter in his blog n i decided to do the same. n not surprising, we did receive lots of comments on it.

many thought this showed symptoms of his becoming a serial killer. but, knowing him, i can only say tht he is a killer, but one who kills with his questions, not weapons. (all the guys who know him would agree with me on this). we all have been the victims of his endless questions.



if you are done reading this report then here's another one to compliment it. i read this report in anjesh dai's blog itself. he had uploaded this to counter our comments n prove tht he too has a gentle side to him (n even then when he was in grade eight). ;-)

these two reports show 2 sides of a person whom i know personally, a gr8 person and fun to be with, and with his trademark questions.
