Here is what a search for KFC India brings up on Google.
I can understand that KFC is very bad in Google SEO and that is why there are no links to KFC homepage in the first page. But why does Google add an uncharacteristic link to mac donalds and suggest me about it in the middle of the result page? Giving me tips is an add on benefit, but the search engine has to primarily do its job - give me a link to what I want instead of other websites that has misused pagerank to shine.
There is this nice little cafe near our house, which unlike the horrible Cafe coffee days and Barista’s, serves some real variety of good food on the side.
The Inch cafe is located on 100 feet road, Indiranagar, right near the Cafe Cofee Day/Pizza Corner outlet on this road (there are other CCD outlets in Indiranagar. I mean the one right on 100 feet road). In the photo below, you would see the 100 feet road, and even the CCD outlet at the far back.

On Jan 9th, 2006, I joined Yahoo Bangalore. Am living out of a suitcase in a guesthouse right now. Will be moving in lock, stock and car next month after I find an acco. All those who live here and can help, I am looking for a place in the Koramangala vicinity.
In the ongoing controvery of President Bush authorising illegal surveillance of its citizens, here is a marvelous post making the real issue much clearer.
Ours is a government of laws, not of men. That means if the President disagrees with a law or feels that it is insufficient, he still must obey it. Ignoring the law is illegal, even for the President. The President may ask Congress to change the law, but meanwhile he must follow it.
Ever since the host of problems at del.icio.us this past week, which left me stranded without my bookmarks, I have been looking out for other social bookmarking services.
I checked out both Simpy and Blinklist. Simpy has a clean, delicious kinda (actually better) look and seemed nicer at first. But then I saw their URLs for tags and people, and hated it. Yes, they probably have it in their todos, but I want a delicious replacement today.
According to this Gmail FAQ,
Gmail doesn’t recognize dots (.) as characters within a username. This way, you can add and remove dots to your username for desired address variations. … If you created your account with a dot in your username and you wish you hadn’t, you can change your ‘Reply-to address.’ … Please note that to log in to Gmail, you must enter any dots that were originally defined as part of your Gmail username.

Now the problem is that KDE doesn’t need one font, but about five (monospace, sans serif fonts in different sizes). And as QFont is per process, every KDE/Qt application does this calculation from scratch. It very much depends on your setup of course, but let’s assume we do this for 10 applications in KDE startup. So doing 50 font matches (way too few, but I’m just trying to make a point): this makes 5 Billion instructions wasted on KDE startup.
Nice, thought provoking “Pearls before swine” strip today ;) :

Even if you were the greatest poet or artist or achitect or king in the entire eighth century B.C., a guy as smart as my friend goat, living in the 21st century, doesn’t even know your name!
