New App - Opera 8.0 beta

Opera Software has released a version 8.0 beta of their namesake browser. The major changes for this release includes much cleaner, simpler UI and support for XmlHttpRequest so that you can read your gmail finally in opera browser. Also, entirely new voice feature to navigate internet using voice commands. Opera has always been the innovative browser since its early days - Multiple windows interface, embedded search, mouse gestures and now voice commands. This is shaping up to be one good release.

New App - Windows Media Player 10

I finally allowed Windows update to update my windows media player to version 10 . It is an improvement over version 9 definitely. Much slicker, uncluttered, easy looking interface. Of course, foobar2000 still rocks as simple yet feature rich player for playing music. But, sometimes I like to have some eye candy.

Music - Kisna soundtrack

Just heard the music of the new in production Subhash Ghai epic " Kisna ". The music is from A.R. Rahman and Ismail Darbar. So, we have some songs sounding like songs from Lagaan and some sounding like those from Devdas and some intrumentation reminds me of earlier Subhash Ghai epic movie music. Good music. It would require some repeat listening to find the songs for keepsake.
