So cliché
! |
TMENTS

By Smriti Daniel |
There is a reason clichés are
clichés, and it's this – more often than
not – why they're true. There does tend to be a
fire where there's smoke (or at least a very poorly maintained
vehicle), whatever will be, will be and of course there
is truly no place like home. |

Much to the annoyance of most of my
"groovy," "new age," "Microsoft
hating" friends, I have stuck with IE over the years,
ignorantly disregarding the advances of Netscape, Mozilla,
Mosaic and Opera. This was more out of indifference rather
than of any loyalty to Mr. Gates or in support of MS through
the anti-trust trials. Knowing Microsoft, I always had
a hunch that IE would be the least troublesome browser
to use on a Windows platform. If you can imagine what
a rude shock it was for me to find out that the rest of
the world had moved on and evolved while I was stuck in
the IE time capsule, then you would also be able to understand
my relief when IE 7 came out. |

It never stops… |

Out of the blue, you might realise that
you have a built-in coping mechanism to deal with the
latest challenge that is thrown your way. This mechanism
was not taught in your school or university curriculum,
but you are able to deal with the crisis. Maybe it was
playing chess that enhanced your ability to think on your
feet, or you simply read something on how to deal with
people at work, or may be you acquired a new addition
to your vocabulary. |
