words made more famous by President Bush..but this is indeed a very bad habit that the world has got into. Addiction and bad habits have been traditionally limited to bad effects for the individual and in some cases few people around(passive smokers). But in the case of oil, this affects the environment so bad that our existence itself is threatened by it! [flickr-photo:id=2435241431,size=m] person blrsri's post | forum 10 Comments | Read More

What do you know about the candidates in your constituency? 04/23/08 04:25 - roshanrkPolitical parties have come out with the list of candidates for various constituencies. How much do we know about them? As for me, I know only the name of the BJP candidate from Rajarajeshwari Nagar constituency. No idea about other candidates or what any of them have done or plan to do for the constituency. person roshanrk's post | forum 3 Comments | Read More

Public transport (BMTC) - what is needed to improve it? Your thoughts 04/22/08 16:02 - s_yajaman
One of the things that Bangalore lacks is a good integrated public transport system as of today. Namma Metro promises to improve things but is a few years away. Till then we depend on BMTC for public transport. BMTC has changed a lot over the last 5-6 years. It (at least according to the website) operates a fleet of 5000 buses and carries about 30 lakh passengers a day (if one person makes 3 trips a day - it is 3 passengers). however, it still has a long way to go. person s_yajaman's post | forum 44 Comments | Read More

Business placards and hoardings neglecting/insulting Kannada 04/21/08 08:10 - nijavaada
There are several instances in Bengaluru nowadays wherein placards and huge hoardings put up by business establishments to advertise their product or shop are insulting the local language - Kannada - by printing Kannada characters on a miniscule scale, whereas English (sometimes even Hindi) characters rule the canvas and are larger than life itself.

New e-procurement portal - transparency!? 04/21/08 05:12 - silkboard
I didn't know about this new e-procurement portal launched last year by the state government. Have a look here (site isn't setup right, watch the warnings). What should interest us most is "transparency". There is a section intended for "citizens", cool! But the citizen's page doesn't have much right now. A list of tenders is available, which shows up only two items. There is a news and information link too, but that leads to a third party commercial website.
