Due to censorship issues, I’ve started hosting my blog on my own servers. They should now load for everyone and much faster.

I got a few emails from my readers in Pakistan about them being unable to access my blog. Upon further investigation apparently Blogger is banned in Pakistan. Now who exactly gave the Pakistani IT minister the right to ban freedom of speech and expression? I can understand their need to block porn sites (since it is the Islamic Republic of Pakistan) but this is just ridiculous!Â

Interesting, AIM now offfers voice over IP (http://www.aimphoneline.com/). Which means all the top three big instant messenger softwares are voip equipped (Yahoo, MSN and AOL).
I’m guessing The Big G (Google) will jump on the bandwagon next.

I’m not really a big follower of Packard Bell, infact I have never owned one of their boring business laptops. But I found this interesting bit of info today at Skype.com. Apparently they’re making a cobranded Skype laptop with built in mic and webcam. Pretty cool.
Here’s the link for more details:

So I’m trying out this new Nokia cellphone, the E61. Well it’s not really ‘new’ anymore since it’s been out a couple of months. Here’s my take:Â Â
I must say, I’d given up on Nokia phones until I got my hands on this one. It’s really cool! Although it’s a bit cumbersome but it’s great for people who need access to their emails all the time (yes people with no lives). Having used the entire ‘Communicator’ aka ‘Nokia Brick’ line of cellphones, this one is certainly a new pace by Nokia. I’d say this is the ultimate blackberry replacement.
Personally I dislike blackberry since, well I think it’s shit (hideous interface, cumbersome menus, shit color screen and all). This is a perfect replacement for blackberry given the similar layout and similar services it renders.The color screen is gorgeous, by far the best I’ve ever seen. It’s got an excellent and friendly menu system, perfect for quick emails, browsing, texting and ofcourse, making phone calls.
The only thing missing, is a camera. Who needs one anyways? The camera thing isn’t for business users and besides, it’s getting old now.

Well, here’s the first post of my blog. Finally found some time to start blogging, been meaning to for a long time but had no time. Anyway, my blog is/will be about life, technology, stuff we do everyday, yes basically I’ll waste a lot of your time if you actually bother reading this stuff. From time to time, I’ll be posting about my ventures such as IchiBan Tek (Private) Limited and Reyox Hosting. However I promise to keep it interesting!

Expression is such a strange word…
For how are words used for expression?
Is it with words that you proclaim your emotions?
Or with a gesture to explain your heart’s dispositions?
Does one write words in an endless composition?
Or does one say something that is meant for hidden comprehension?
Does one have to say something in a poetic rhyme?
To tell you that his love is as endless as time.
Or can one simply say, that you’re mine, all mine?
For indeed you are mine, just mine.

Once upon a dark gloomy night
Wandering within was a brave young knight
Asked him I did: ‘What ails thee o knight?’
He replied: ‘I wish not to bother thee with ailments of my heart’
‘It is bothersome not, tell me what pains thy heart’
‘Very well’ replied he, ‘listen to the tale I now start’
‘Rescue I did once upon a time, a princess imprisoned by fate’
‘Fought a fire breathing dragon I did, to change her doomed fate’
‘Restored her to her castle I did, thanked me she did for changing her fate’
‘Went home I that night, thinking about the princess I saved’
‘Sleeping that night, realized I, love had befallen my heart’
‘The following morning, confessed I did to this angel about the feelings of my heart’
‘Turned me down cruelly she did: “Nay go away! Love thee I do notâ€â€™
‘Added she heartlessly: “I love another, whom thee are notâ€â€™
‘Accepting what she said, went away I did, for disobey her I could not’
‘And that my friend is what troubles my weak heart’
‘Fear not’ replied I, ‘hope ye feels better after unloading thy heavy heart’
Replied he: ‘I thank thee for lending an ear to my heart’
Away he went wandering back into the sad night
Followed him from a distance did I, observing his actions in the night
Upon a bridge climbed he, leaping from the height, making this indeed a sad night
Moments after he had left the bridge, a princess came into sight
Saw me she did and asked me if seen I had a brave young knight
Nodded my head I did, saying descended off this bridge had the knight
Cry she did, claiming: ‘Love him much I did’
Walked away I did, leaving her to her deserved fate
Wiping her tears, from the distance she called
‘Wait a moment please…. Answer my question’
‘Who are thee o dark stranger?’
I replied: ‘Fate my dear… your fate…’

Deny I can’t my love for you
I say I do love you, forever and true
In you I find beauty and true virtues
Escape from me as you may
Break my heart with something that you say
Deny my love as you do everyday
Yet my love for you remains unchanged
My love will remain, forever unchanged
Although that means my soul will remain in chains
Change is something my heart cannot accept
My heart cannot reject someone with such an effect
Even though I try, my heart interjects
Once again I say, I do love thee
For true love is always what I feel for thee
Today, Tomorrow and Forever

Promises too keep
Promises to break
Promises to defy
Promises to glorify
What are promises but words and phrases
To help us get by life and its various phases
