Connectivity problems for people in India/Egypt

A breakdown in an international undersea cable network badly disrupted Internet links to India and Egypt on Wednesday.

This should explain the slowness I have been experiencing today, both with my primary BSNL connection, as well as with my slower (but more reliable) Reliance CDMA connection. It feels like as if I’m on my ancient 28.8k dialup once again :-( .

  • The beginning of 2008 has been a little rough for me, as I had fever and headache for the past few days (starting from the 2nd, to be exact). Luckily, things seem to be getting better now, and currently, the fever seem to have subsided, leaving behind a pretty nasty cough though :-( .
    My Hyderabad trip, on the other hand, turned out to be a refreshing break, and I met my little niece for the first time :-) .
     
  • It looks like I’ll be going for Gnunify, though the details are not finalized yet.
