neat way of remembering sin and cos

neat way of remembering sin cos values -

sin 0° = sqrt(0)/2
sin 30° = sqrt(1)/2
sin 45° = sqrt(2)/2
sin 60° = sqrt(3)/2
sin 90° = sqrt(4)/2

cos 0° = sqrt(4)/2
cos 30° = sqrt(3)/2
cos 45° = sqrt(2)/2
cos 60° = sqrt(1)/2
cos 90° = sqrt(0)/2

ControlC: Turning Cut & Paste Into A Web Service

Copy a text or a link on your computer and it gets uploaded to your account on www.controlc.com - new idea for sure - and will get people hooked on to it for sure too - but how do I rate its usability? Umm... personally not a service for me; but going by how people are loving the new idea, I might give it a shot and see it for myself soon.

Google 2-d bar code

This is how Google tries to track the equivalent of ‘clicks’ with its print ads. Quite interesting.

Another gimmick by Sabeer Bhatia?

Sabeer Bhatia is out of Bollywood news for now and back in technology news-
http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/11/23/live-documents-to-break-microsoftwell-see/

laughable (domain name, site design, name used) at this point of time; controversial too - the way he is using MS Office's name and reference all over the place. He better be careful!

Back after a break

Back after a long gap. L-i-f-e has been pretty interesting ever since I last posted here.. Been 3 months now in the US, at Microsoft, Redmond.

No more of my *personal* news here :)

I'll be here more often,
