After using kovilpillai@usa.net for sometime, I created my Yahoo!Mail email Id. I think I had hotmail account also but I was comfortable with Yahoo! Mail. And then gMail came with some cool features, especially the storage. I still kept my Yahoo!Mail as a primary email id. And slowly(!) gMail overtook other email service providers and become very famous. It has been just few years since I started using gMail, merely because of the free pop service. I tried rediff and indiatimes too. Never felt great about them.

Few days back, I got an email from Yahoo!Mail thanking me for using Yahoo!Mail for more than 10 years. That was a "wow" moment for me, not because I got an email from Yahoo! but I have been using email for more than a decade. I tried Yahoo!Mail in iPhone and the desktop version. It is lot more matured to compete against gMail. Though gMail got lots of features, I still prefer Yahoo!Mail, because I am one of those who love Yahoo! Mail. It just got whatever I want to have.

The Kite Runner

Usually, I buy and read book suggested by my friends but no one suggested me to read the book "The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini". I neither heard about it before I accidentally bought it.

There was something attractive, though it was not as beautiful as of many of the books cover design, it should be the cover of it, because all I could see was only the book cover. I took it in my hand and asked myself, should I buy this?, yes was the answer and I bought it. I completed reading this book last week, after keeping it the shelf for almost 2 years. I am glad I got this book. It is one of best books I read in the recent years. The phrase " For you, a thousand times over " lingering in the mind is the proof that I really enjoyed reading this book and moved so much ;) " I became what I am today at the age of twelve, on a frigid overcast day in the winter of 1975 &

New Year Resolution 2015

Another new year, another ( same! ) set of new year resolutions. I wanted to read Thirukural and set target 50 last year but couldn't achieve it. But then I used one Kural in my every blog post . New Year Resolution List: For year 2016, I should shorten it to at least 1/3 of this list. At least, make it more readable ;) Reading Books: Book reading is going to be reduced this year. I am planning to reread few of the books I read last year. Of course, will find time to read books suggested by friends. I have got Bhagavad Gita tamil version from my friend and might read this before the end of 2015. I Am Malala, The Last Temptation of Jesus Christ, Mossad, 'The Madman, The Forerunner, Spirits Rebellious', Yudhargal Varalaarum Vaazkaiyum, If You Meet The Buddha On The Road Kill Him are few of the books I enjoyed reading. By the way, I have changed the FB album title from "Books I read" to "Books I read - Not To Be Shared" ;) Accounting: How difficu
