eSnips : Download problem solved



[ Referred from some other's blog]

An easy way to dupe eSnips into letting all users to download mp3 files freely. I posted a few tips & tricks to download music files, button or no button. After posting these tips I was still uncertain whether all users would go as far as searching the Cache of Internet Explorer or even downloading Flashget and follow the instructions given in the post.

As most of us are not techies or for that matter even computer savvy, I pursued in my quest to find an easier way out and make things easier for fellow eSnippers. At last I discovered a big security lapse at the eSnips server.

Now as you open an user's music folder you need to click on the music file you want to play. I presume that most of you want that file to play in a new window but many of you just click the link and the player opens up in the same window. In both the cases the window will look like the image given below :


As you can see the URL in the Internet Explorer or Firefox address bar looks like this :

http://www.esnips.com/doc/41b2572e-dbe7-488f-ade5-6b1eeedb8fbe/Salam-e-ishq

Now click your mouse in the address bar itself and change doc (after http://www.esnips.com/) to nsdoc and remove the name of the file (including the slash), in this case : /Salam-e-ishq. Your modified URL in the address bar will now look like this (you may check out this trick by clicking on the following URL ):

http://www.esnips.com/nsdoc/41b2572e-dbe7-488f-ade5-6b1eeedb8fbe

Now just press Enter. Lo and behold your file is ready for download. No need for downloading Flashget or searching fervently for your needed file in the ever bloated Internet Explorer Cache.

You will see this window after you press Enter :

This window will inadvertently remind you of the good-old-days of the green download button and may drive you to nostalgia. Just click on Save and watch your mp3 being downloaded as before.

Good old downloading days are here again .... till eSnips catches up with this too.

I never take risk while drinking

[From a forward mail]


I never take risk while drinking

When I come from office in the evening, wife is cooking

I can hear the noise of utensils in the kitchen

I stealthily enter the house

Take out the bottle from my black cupboard

Shivaji Maharaj is looking at me from the photo frame

But still no one is aware of it

Becoz I never take a risk

I take out the glass from the rack above the old sink

Quickly enjoy one peg

Wash the glass and again keep it on the rack

Of course I also keep the bottle inside my cupboard

Shivaji Maharaj is giving a smile

I peep into the kitchen Wife is cutting potatoes

No one is aware of what I did Becoz I never take a risk

I: Any news on Iyer's daughter's marriage

Wife: Nope, she doesn't seem to be that lucky. Still they are looking out for her

I again come out; there is a small noise of the black cupboard

But I don't make any sound while taking out the bottle

I take out the glass from the old rack above sink

Quickly enjoy one peg

Wash the bottle and keep it in the sink

Also keep the Black Glass in the cupboard

But still no one is aware of what I did

Becoz I never take a risk

I: But still I think Iyer's daughter's age is not that much

Wife: What are you saying? She is 28 yrs old... like an aged horse

I: (I forgot her age is 28) Oh Oh...

I again take out potatoes out from my black cupboard

But the cupboard's place has automatically changed

I take out the bottle from the rack and quickly enjoy one peg in the sink

Shivaji Maharaj laughs loudly

I keep the rack in the potatoes & wash Shivaji Maharaj's photo & keep it

in the black cupboard

Wife is keeping the sink on the stove

But still no one is aware of what I did

Becoz I never take a risk

I: (getting angry) you call Mr. Iyer a horse? If you say that again, I

will cut your tongue...!

Wife: Don't just blabber something, go out and sit quietly...

I take out the bottle from the potatoes

Go in the black cupboard and enjoy a peg

Wash the sink and keep it over the rack

Wife is giving a smile

Shivaji Maharaj is still cooking

But still no one is aware of what I did

Becoz I never take a risk

I: (laughing) So Iyer is marrying a horse!!

Wife: Hey go and sprinkle some water on your face...

I again go to the kitchen, and quietly sit on the rack

Stove is also on the rack

There is a small noise of bottles from the room outside

I peep and see that wife is enjoying a peg in the sink

But none of the horses are aware of what I did

Becoz Shivaji Maharaj never takes a risk

Iyer is still cooking

And I am looking at my wife from the photo and laughing Becoz I never take what???

My First Volvo travel !!!

I was going to Bangalore to meet my college buddies after a very long time.

When I used to live in Assam, We usually take "super deluxe" bus for Guwahati. And so as I was booking ticket for Bangalore, it reminded me my Assam's days.

Thus, while booking my ticket, I insisted for seat near window and so they promised me for that. It put me in surprise to know that it cost 700 buck from Hyderabad to Bangalore!!! God knows why they are charging so much?! May be it is again because of IT impact for Hyderabad and Bangalore. All IT professionals are accused of price hike in these cities. And I hope all government employee at these place will feel honor to kill IT professionals anytime.

On the day of my journey, I took MMTS till Hyderabad Station and the bus stop was a walk able distance from station. Peacefully, I reached 2 hrs before the scheduled departure. While waiting, I was browsing and listening songs on my cell.

After some time I asked the bus-wala chap about my seat (just to confirm). And what!!! They gave me non-window seat. And that really pissed me off!!!

I told him that they promised for the window seat, so how can they give some other seat!!! That person tried to console me and asked how it matters if it is window seat or not. It is a night journey and you won’t get any view outside. To defend myself, I explained that I have absolute no problem with it, but I am little bit uncomfortable in bus journey. So I shouldn't be blamed of something come out of me there (I hinted them that I may puke in bus). And on my comment, he gave me a frown and said that in that case window seat is not good enough. I too gave him a double frown for this. I pestered him again for window seat. He told me that he will try to arrange me a window seat but can't promise. In any case, I had no choice, so I get agreed.

After half an hour, this bus came up, and one of them escorted us to the exact location from where we are supposed to take the bus. In bus, I found that some other person was seating on my place and there is no one on his window side. The person, who escorted me till bus, asked me to seat on the window seat. Actually the person sitting on my place was confused with the seating number. He tried to confirmed it with me and I made him fool (that what I think!!!) by saying that even I don't know about the sitting arrangement. My agent told me that this is my seat.

I was damn happy to get the window seat. After Assam, I was having a trip in bus after a very long time. I like window seat because of the fresh air coming from window and I can even peek outside. So I thought of opening the window. I was searching for its handle. But by my surprise!! There was no handle!!! In fact, window can't be open!! This really surprised me!! And then only I started feeling that there is somewhat little cold inside the bus. It took me no time to understand that this is an AC bus.

Suddenly the image of frowned Bus-wala came in front of me. And I realized why he was frowning and trying hard to convince that window seat is not good if I want to bum. And why they were charging so much. It is not because of IT, it is because of AC. I laughed on me, pulled my chair back and get relaxed to enjoy my ever first travel in VOLVO.

North Indian Curd !!! South Indian Curd !!!

During one of our usual lunch time, when the entire team member were having lunch in new campus Cafeteria. Out of the blue sky, Sujit came with an amazing statement, "North Indian Curd is different from South Indian!!"

I many time heard that North Indian are Different from South Indian, but first time I heard anything about curd like this!!!

Once we asked how you differentiate North Indian Curd and South Indian Curd, all curd is made in a same way and there is no other special procedure to make it. He backed his words with its taste of "Khatta" ( Tamil :- pulippu ; Telugu :- pullaga ) . South Indian Curd is more Khatta than North Indian.

Then Isharat explained that Khatta is all because of how long you keep it to become Curd. It is no where related to north or south.

But Vikas came up as Sujit savior with his own-styled humorous explanation of the topic. According to him, “Curd is made of Milk, and cow gives milk and cow living in north India and south India can be different!!!" Seriously, Patchers thinks a lot !!!

Everyone laughed!!!

And I thought, “As if North Indian cow eats Roti Sabjhi and South Indian cow eats Rice Shambhar!!!”

And so I concluded, “For god shake!! Please divide only human not cow or curd!!!"

Hope School Painting and Planting Trees

The CA HOPE School at Habsiguda has shifted premises recently. The building needed a facelift and the Community Relations (CR) volunteers were called into action. We were told that there was some uneven ground which had to be leveled and the walls needed some touch up too.

The response was overwhelming. Initially, we only thought that we had to paint the interiors. On reaching the school, we were told that we also had to paint the exteriors. There were about 18 volunteers and the combined effort was astounding. Apart from cleaning up the ground and planting trees, the CR team painted both the interior and the exterior of the school building. Together, we accomplished much more than what we initially planned to do. Together, we made a difference in the lives of children. That's what CA Together is all about!

Orkut!!!

Orkut is Banned.

Yeah!!! Finally orkut is banned in my college too.Orkut is now a days is also termed as a disease for Corporate and Educational Institutes's Internet Bandwidth.

As like any other event, this banning in my college has too came up with some true-false story.And the story says that Mondal went to CCC and complained that net is too slow and also having problem in opening Orkut. And so, CCC blessed him with his one out of two wish that they improved the speed at the cost of Orkut :(.

Now I feel that orkut is in people's vain. They can't live and even can't think without it.People find it worthless browsing net without it.

Surly some geek decided to crack this up and start using orkut through some other way.And started with some proxy site like kproxy.com . But it was all waste.Then suddenly someone said that powerscrap.com is working superbly.

But when I opened it in Firefox, I was just able to sign in but not able to open scrap book.So I was confused and obviously sad.But then I tried it in Internet Explorer and wow!!! It worked.

So ultimately , I am back on orkut.But for how long??!!! sooner or later , Authority will come to know about this too and so obviously they will ban this too.

But whatever happen in future, this is true that Orkut now a days is plague and authorities and higher people are trying their best to eradicate this.

Fresher Party '07


2007, End of My college life.

North East a place which has given me my career option in my life. But this is not the sole reason for which I live this place. It is its people who make it different than other place. If asked where I belong to then I would feel more proud in telling myself as from North-east rather than UP where I had never lived in my life. People out here are very kewl .No worries in life.

When I got in to this College, I came to know about a clan of people represented themselves as "north East Party". And my love for this place makes me to join this gang.

After 4 year, we are now in Final year and its time to give fresher to First year. The Last fresher Party to attend.

The Venue was Kudla. The ambience was superb. I still remember the taste of Fish dish on my tongue when I first time came her with my uncle. And so I am not gonna to explain about the food here.

All First years were dressed in Formals, Boys in Formal shirt-pant-tie and gals in saree, Except Roochna, who was in some traditional North -east dress. At least she was representing North-East somehow. But I was obviously tensed to see her here as I knew that I'm gonna to be ragged now.

And so it started with the Host Siddhartha Nilani. And it started with intro and question with Vishaal Kapoor followed by Roocha (my par pooti). And I already knew that I'm gonna be THE guy tonight, it happened so. And I too tried to enjoy it as I know it is going to be over soon and so it got over with my rose to her and some kind of arbit dance.

And What!!! Surprise!!! Our chief guest, Manoj Mourya, showed up. He was looking very tired and exhausted. This Lucky chap was in manipal whole nite and missed our MR too. Of course I am not gonna to say what he was doing in Manipal.The word "Lucky Chap" and "Manipal" itself tells the whole story. And I noticed a brand new Fast Track watch around his wrist. Man!!! I'm jealous of this guy.

Now back to the party, first years came up with some program. First they all came on podium for a group song, "yaroo". C'mon Fresher It is supposed to be a farewell song. And then it was followed by a drama about their year long ragging. Our food was also started by this time and we all then got busy in eating fagging and dancing. We had head banging to Bhangara. All were in full jolly mood.

At the end of intro, we people recalled our dinesh hosdurga sir. And we had a minute silence to pay tribute to him. We were really missing him.

With the end of Fresher and a warm welcome to first years in NE party. We all Final year invited the Party for a job treat on upcoming Sunday.

And Now It was time for GPLs.

Two Mini Bus was arranged by 2nd years for our way back to Hostel. All final years were in a single bus. We all sang danced in bus all through our way to hostel.

It was all a memorable evening for me and all of us final year.

"North East Party....Hip Hip Hurray....Hip Hip Hurray.... Hip Hip Hurray...."

The Most important derivation on Gals


Sometime I feel that this derivation is very correct and totally applicable on all gals. That's why I never make any Gf.[;)].
Just Kidding.....

But Seriously It is true...They are big Evil and we have to save earth from them. So make as many Gf possible and punish them.

Final year Photo Shot

Time run really fast.Now its a time for Final year Photo shot.

All EnC janta was adhered to formal dress.
I am always surprised and think what gals should have to wear when asked for formal dress code.Saree?? or Salwar??.But in our photo shot all gals came in salwaar.Though I personally like gals in saree. They look beautiful , fabulous and completly desi in saree.


We all guys were ready for a last time formal dress pics. More than our final year pic, people were more concern about orkut pic.Each and every location being searched keepin orkut in mind.Everyone want a solo pic and giving all kind of possible pose that will look good and possibly able to seduce some gals in orkut ;).

And soon mom appeared from nowhere.I dont know why but her entry always remind me of the Theme music of Don.And as usual I didnt noticed that our HOD was also there.
But the main person who was absent was our C.R. , yaswant. God knows why.But we left a space for him in our pic and obviously we will morph him at that place.




Some more people were also absent.Lad asha and Hamish.

I got a middle place in that pic on the second row just behind mom.And anushka was standing on my right.Obviously she didnt liked that position. After all, no 5 feet gal wanna to stand and have a photo with 6 feet 2 inch guy.I can hear that she was pestering kala to stand with me.But she was not convinced.




Just after that formal final year photo shot we had our own kewl photo shot.And so first we paid our homage to Srinivas Mallya . We had all kind of possible solo and group pose with his statue.We had all pose from hugging to kissing :) . And then we marched to our dept.Department was already closed.We had a nice pic with PSB sir.I cant mention how fun it was having a pic in our scariest DSP lab.By this time not much of the people were left out.And from gals side only Rashmi Bhabhi, supriya and revathi was there.



Then atlast we people turned back to hostel with a plan of having more coolest orkut pic on Govinda day.
