Just look for this iPhone app 'callway'. It is simply useful replacement to the default phone system in the iPhone. Why you want to buy this app?. - It loads very fast - It allows you to save your favourites and recent calls in single screen - Allows up to 100 favourites - Recent calls shows the call duration - Speed dialing - integrates with another iPhone app called 'groups' Go and load it, very useful and costs very less ($1.99) for Australia.

Recently as part of Sydney Festival, there was A.R Rahman concert in Parramatta, Sydney. It was really good, the crowd was almost at 70,000 mostly Indians and very less anglo indians, it was a very cool show. Rahman an Oscar winning composer told the crowd that this concert is close to his heart and he was speaking in harmony for Indo Australian ties because of the recent racist violence against Indians in Melbourne.

The concert starts with Drums Sivamani. The show was on for 3 hrs, but I have just loaded three videos, concert started with Drums by famous Sivamani, See the video

Khabhi Khabi Song, one of my favourite

the concert ending with Jai Ho

As of now there is trouble in Iran with elections, it is strange that US somehow manages to be freindly when hard liners like Benjamin Netayahu get elected, but frowns when Iran elects a hard liner

Coming to the subject, got these valuable pictures of old homes in Iran…

 

According to a news from the dailys, seems Aussies are leading the race to bring the vaccine to the public.. good work

Australia leads flu vaccine race

First of all, let me tell you that Racism is negligible in Australia compared to other countries. I have been living in Sydney for almost 2 yrs now and  havent faced any racism in work-place or anywhere. Having said that I am scared to travel in public transport after 10pm in trains and sensible persons will avaoid travelling late or exercise caution. So my views are that whatever thats happening is mostly oppurtunistic with a little bit of racism. Here is the story…

Recently went a trip to grand pacific drive from Sydney to Wollongong.

We took the route via scenic tourist route via bald hill, also going via Royal National Park. You can merely pass via Royal National Park or you will have to pay toll if you picnic there. The river side picnic is exotic location.

The views before bald hill is amazing, this place is also known for hand gliding. The views from bald hill facing the ocean is simply superb.

After bald hill you will see the bridge, the cliff where the new bridge over the sea is build, which is a part of grand pacific drive, the drive is simply fantastic. You can also walk in the 800 mts bridge, but when we were driving it was mildly raining..

The drive over the bridge leaves you feeling great, and the route upto wollonging is great.

Came across a good site for Indian Election politics

Liked an artice from that site by R Jagannathan Undemocratic India very much. Cool  finally have some hopes for India..

As you know elections are held in India from April to May 2009. On 16 May the election results will be announced.

Some facts:

• Indian election exercise is much bigger than that of US election
• India is second largest democracy in the world
• India spends around 10,000 crores in two months for this exercise which is equivalent to 1 year election exercise of US
• Surprisingly the Indian IPL cricket business is also 10,000 crores

Well Indian election campaign rules are absurd in that you will have to spend less money officially, so black money prevails and widespread.

During this recession, everyone says that only China has the money .

Chinese are buying Australian assets and mineral companies day in, day out and after living in a multicultural environment in sydney along side with chinese and arabs, it makes lot of interest to know about china more than ever.

So was searching youtube on china and found this videos of chinese cities..by the way who told that china is a developing nation, it is much more developed than Australia or USA
