So I finally realized that walking 2 miles each way to school wasn't that bad after all. The only downside was that it took about 35 to 40 minutes, so the time was being under-utilized. It did take a bit (as it usually does in my case) to join the dots and get the big picture - Windows Mobile + walk time = blog! So here I am, walking the streets of Philadelphia*, blogging on the move!
It can be rather beautiful or extremely depressing, depending on the route you take. For the unacquainted, Philly is a very old city, ill maintained (IMO) in more areas than I'd care to mention. I stay just north of downtown, a stone's throw from Logan square. It's a beautiful fountain just west of the high-rises, with benches all around. The grand art museum of Philly is visible in the background. This is where I'll be setting up camp en-route home today, so I can finish reading the paper on debugging multithreaded programs that I started reading yesterday.
I'm almost there now, so I’ll cut this story short. Come back later for more snippets! :-)
* That sounds so sinister!
Addendum: just saw an Aston Martin DB9 Spyder go by... (drool)

The photo of the fountain seems to be taken at a ISO > 100. Some noise is noticable. Set the auto-ISO setting to off and set your ISO to 100. Nahi ka?
@narayan: Used my poor little 2MP camera phone for that :D
Btw my Canon doesn't have an auto ISO setting!
"just saw an Aston Martin DB9 Spyder go by... (drool)" Aaah! I've only seen one in parking lots, auto-shows or movies :):) I am jealous
What do you use Windows Mobile on ??
-> I wasn't driving the DB9!
-> I run Windows Mobile on my cell phone! I didn't even know there was some other device you could run it on!
