Water droplets - dipping a toe in macro photography
Posted by Raghu on April 30, 2008
he he - so I have a canon S3 IS - got it last year since it allows enough manual control while also having family friendly thingies like video :). Also, with the chdk hack, the S3 IS is good enough for me to experiment.
So, one of these long time itches has been to take a water droplet splash - you know, the immensely close up snaps where you see a single drop splashing…
Here’s the snaps after two evenings of trial and error (mostly errors though) - feeling quite smug myself

Free subversion hosting - What’s the best?
Posted by Raghu on April 2, 2008
All - I’ve just signed up for an Assembla account - these folks provide free subversion hosting with a 500 meg space and unlimited spaces.
Will see how it goes.

Firefox 3 beta 5 released. Yahoo Mail is still broken.
Posted by Raghu on April 2, 2008
Firefox 3 Beta 5 release today. Release notes and downloads here.
Installed it as soon as I got to know today morning and the first thing to check was whether Yahoo Mail still crashed. Initially, Yahoo Mail seemed to work alright for all of 50 seconds - quickly moving over items in inbox caused Firefox to crash 
Guess will wait for some more time. I’m sure there’s a bug report somewhere on this - Yahoo mail was broken on Beta 2, got fixed in Beta 3, then was broken in Beta 4 and is still broken on Beta 5.
Will wait for it to be fixed - Any idea if this is a firefox issue or a Yahoo! issue? Seems odd that script can cause the browser to crash so badly.
