Back after a vacation!

balagopalks | 11 September, 2007 20:15


It was couple of weeks back, I started dreaming about coding even in my dreams, Thanks Hartti for the advice to go in for a vacation. I planned to take a week vacation last week so that I can enjoy the regional festival Onam with my family and friends. Well, there is lot to tell about the festival Onam. Its one of the biggest festival of the South Indian state Kerala. You can read more about Onam here. I enjoyed being with my family and have done some long drives to KanyaKumari, Kochi and Guruvayur. 

As GPS is not that much popular in India, earlier I never got a chance to use GPS while I travel. I was more interested in GPS when I got my E90. So took the E90 along with me and fixed it in the dash board of the car. Even though there were no maps for the different parts of my country, I was saving the Locations with Longitude and Latitude of different places I traveled. And one thing that amazed me was the Speed calculation with GPS. I tried braking and accelerating while I drive, to my surprise, its as exact as the speed of my car. Now I am looking for the day, when the complete digital map of India is available. Heard that maps of different big cities in India are already available. But I wish to have maps of almost all cities in India. Am I crazy ? :)

Oh!  yeah! I found a way to promote MOSH as well. Those interested can see it here ;)

Regards
Gopal
