Live traffic update from various roads in Bangalore.
Do check out this useful website on our fair city, promoted by Sify.com. What we found most handy is the live traffic update covering Brigade Road, Hosur Road, Mekhri Circle and Basveshwara Circle. Additionally, it has info on weather, rail and fight timings as well.

They certainly don’t make ‘em like they used to…
One of my fondest 7 year ‘ol moments were curled up in front of the telly, mum would have my favourite mean hoat and ready in front of me and I would impatiently wait for the previous show to end so that I could enjoy another episode of…Fragglerock! Boy, I could watch those cute fuzzy little creations of Jim Henson for hours. I curiously tried to look ‘em up in Bittorent but to no luck :-( I nonetheless came across this fabulous site that not only has the complete 70 episodes of Fragglerock :-), but a host of other really golden oldies such as… The Munsters, Coach, Sci fi series like SeaQuest & Sliders & ofcourse everybody’s favourite action guy of the 80′s, our very own MacGuyver. But I still am not able to find classics like Mr. Belvedere, Sledge Hammer and Some mothers do have ‘em.
Sigh! They really don’t make ‘em like they used to.

Have you seen the Purple Flowered Tree?
April showers have begun, but we haven’t seen the last of this gruelling Bangalore summer yet. But before the monsoon makes it’s way, do make sure you feast your eyes on this beauty:
The Lagestroemia Tharoli (Lagey for short), is a deciduous plant that parades it’s alluring mauvish-purplish hue every Bangalore Summer. Funny I’ve never noticed it before, but this summer I happen to come across Lagey on almost every street! This picture was taken outside our office in Koramangala but I’ve spotted the purple flowered tree in Indiranagar, on the different Ring Roads, up north, infact all over Bangalore. And each time I would glancy upon Lagey I silently relish my few minutes of complete awe of the artist in God.
