from the skies..























long ago when i first understood that the earth really rotates 360 degrees, i wondered whether it would not be possible to make some flying object which will go vertically up in air and then stay put there while the earth does the moving. It can come down when it's destination comes below it. So simple and effective! This way we could take advantage of earth's motion without doing much work ourselves.

Air travel would have been much cheaper if the sky didn't moved along with the land below :(


Location: over Frankfurt, Germany.

small communities

another one..



Location: near the border of Andhra & Orissa.

can you imagine how different their lives are,
compared to our wierd wired world.



btw, i recently discovered a search engine which displays results relevant to India. They seem to have filtered Indian websites and indexed them. So, anything you search for, will be India-specific.
Wouldn't it be great if you are looking for cricket or some latest news and you get the results specific to India from Indian sites. I think it helps you get the Indian perspective.


The site is guruji.com and is started by 2 IIT-Delhi alumni. Try it out.
