The Unstoppable Rants of MJ - This Time My Style

New Products

1. KFC Chicken Popcorn

KFC has introduced a new menu item, Chicken Popcorn with two variant, Regular and Large, Regular is Rs.49/- and large is Rs.89/-, taste wise its awesome ( because MSG is added) its quite addictive also. The chicken is so tender and soft, it literally melt in your mouth, sorry too much indulged in it

MJ’s Verdict Must Try

2. Big Babol fill folly Gum

This gum was very tempting and I tried my hands, it costs Rs.10/- it was a cotton candy first and after few chews it will be bubble gum. but we loose the taste while it was a cotton candy and we are just chewing a tasteless stuff.

MJ’s verdict : Product DOA - Dead on Arrival.

Offers

3. If you are working from Ascends Park or know any friends in Ascends Park, then you are lucky KFC in Ascends park food

4. Did you guys check the Vodafone delights offer in Vodafone site, if not check now, its really nice, we get lot of offers.

Techie Side

5. Facebook is coming up with Gmail Killer, Facebook’s web based email project dubbed as Project Titan is expected to go live today, lets see, how it works, it will be basically an add on to the existing Message feature of Facebook, with some attachment options etc etc.

6. In shocking turn over, it seems Microsoft is dumping its own Silverlight technology for RIA application, they are now giving more important to HTML 5. I think this might have risen after the rejection of flash in mobile world. So where does Silverlight goes from here, it will be used to develop software for Windows Mobile Phone 7 apps and some out of browsers apps.

7. Now Google is trying a yet another attempt to be a Facebook Killer with its new Social networking site Google Me. So what happened to orkut ??? You Guess

8. I just want to say Google that software which had the name ME never worked all are super flops like Windows ME, Apple’s MobileME , just playing with luck thats it

9. Android android, whole world is giving hype of it, overall its Linux. Now the surprise is Homebrewer community has jail breaked iphone to run android on it, Yes it’s true, you can run android in iphone. Search in Google there are so many YouTube videos showing it out.

Gaming

Presenting The First Indoor Ice skating in Chennai and 2nd in India

I am happy to say this first , Chennai had its first Indoor Ice Skating in Ampa Skywalk Mall, Nelson Manikkaam Road.

Yesterday , while gazing through the mall, Me and my friend found this new under construction place, called Pandora and surprised to see they have ice skating wow. so we had a sneak peek into it.

It has a big good enough Ice Skating Rink ready ( I forgot to ask the space it might be more than 1000 Sq Ft, I Guess). The Floor is made up of Synthetic ice, so even if we fall down , we will not get wet or get hurt :)

The Rink is awesome, they are maintaining 6 degree temperature( wow, where will we get such a temp in chennai, One secret the data server room in our office or any office will have this temperature)

I just had a chance to feel it , its awesome

Apart from this Indoor Ice Skating Rink, they offer Virtual Games Video games and the Dance Box ( For those who saw Karate Kid movie, in a scene jaden and that gal will dance before a box , i think both are same).

They have a mocktail pub also inside the venue.

Finally, they are open from 1o am to 10 pm and charge Rs.200/- per half an hour for Ice skating, they are soon going to roll out membership also.

The Ice Skating Rink is open for now, the remaining stuff will take a month, so enjoy it in Pandora, Ampa Skywalk mall, Near Flower Xpress.

Come Let's do spinning, skidding and twirling on the ice surface, if anybody sponosor me he he (Evil Laughs)

P.S : India's First Ice Skating is in Prasad Imax, Hyderbad.
