Ovi store is the much hyped nokia version of apple store but it doesn’t come anywhere near to the latter either in the application it contains or the site usability. Ovi store have applications for the S60 based phones which again have many varieties among themselves like screen size and hardware resources. Ovi store have variant of applications for different type of phone models and the download link is sent to the mobile via sms. I tried it with my nokia 6110 navigator and many of the application links did not work.

The bigger names are missing even after one month when the ovi store is launched. The site usefulnuss is not good either, the pages sometime jam with the response to ajax did not come back, session times out pretty soon and the search don’t show relevant results. For the nokia phone owners at last there is a place where the users can look for the applications they wanted. But unlike of apple store the ovi store does not look like it will be the preffered way to distribute applications for the bigger application makers.

I saw a recent report in times of india that ghazaiabd mcd is giving the bulls their own park named nandi park on the world environment day. The number of bulls on city street have grown because nobody wanted to keep a bull anymore since they have become a liability with the advent of machines have made them useless.

the bulls will cut their own chaffe and do other work for mcd to save diesel and electricity.  some of the good bulls will be used as stud for breeding purposes. Report mentions that there are  bulls that got names like toofan and kaalia based on their notoriety. Mcd have made different squad to catch such bulls.

Unlike of last year summer of delhi this year is quite hot. So I went up himalayas last weekend. It was a nice trip. We went to rishikesh. Vsited the neelkanth temple. Stayed at laxmanjhula in night and we did rafting next day in shivpuri with a group of english tourists.

rafting at shivpuri

I never took the guides seriously. till in one of the rapid near brahmpuri i was the first to go in water and our boat was at 75 degrees in the river. Atleast thats what rest of the peoples said since i was at the front corner and i never knew how it happened.

mussorie at our hotel

next night we stayed in mussorie. Weather was like delhi monsoons.

We went up from mussorie to dhanaulti which have a vegitation and views like kashmir.

The return trip was more eventful with heavy rains in mussorie and wind storms near dehradun.
