Early Bangalore as seen from Bus Route # 11

05/19/09 05:39 - E.R. Ramachandran

Bangalore in Fifties and Sixties was still a Pensioners’ Paradise and very much a sleepy town. It was mostly divided into City and Cantonment with Basavanagudi and Malleshwaram well known among its residential areas. Jaya Nagar or its famous mosquitoes had not made their debut yet.

Are Government websites reliable in their static contents/updations?

05/19/09 05:24 - Vasanthkumar Mysoremath

Dear All

Many of us have experienced difficulty in obtaining correct/uptodate information from Government websites.  This has led to a number of questions:

- Why were such portals launched

- Were the websites designed and developed 'in house' or 'outsourced', if so,  

- at what cost?

Storm water drain in Bilekahalli

05/19/09 04:27 - bvijayk

The BBMP has been constructing a storm water drain across the Ranka Colony road in Bilekahalli off the Bannerghatta Road. This project was started in 2008 and still there are no signs of this project getting completed in 2009. This drain is to carry the water flowing from J.P.Nagar area to the Bommanahalli lake without flooding the roads enroute.

 The latest version of Google earth has introduced a new feature of viewing the earth at different periods of time, starting with the year 2000. This allows us to see the changes on any part of the earth over a given period of time starting with the year 2000. I had listed in my earlier blog entry about 48 lakes as on May 15, 2009.
