We liked the other newly revamped website as well. Great theme design and better graphics but
a bit too loaded.Given the rise in budgets and dependence on survey data, analytical targeting, political
response models might just be around by 2012 !!
Have a happy 4th July if you are from the US.
Orkut has worked very hard with
1) avoiding clutter unlike the FB (apps go in the left)
2) customized page themes
3) integration with the gtalk
4) scraps/ wall posts updates
5) some better games than FB. yes i especially liked Space invader
almost like a flash game
which hasnot
been seen in some time. And most FB games were there !!
This is one Google product they are keeping much quiet about- wonder if they are
changing their high profile ways with the justice department sniffing on the yahoo deal.
Heres a preview – Go and revive that old Orkut account of yours
A beautiful role playing game is Eve Online available at http://www.eve-online.com/. Its like a Star Wars fantasy game and the graphics are mind blowing . The downside- its so addictive that you are forewarned.
Also it employs economists who monitor the interactions of the thousands of people and millions of online interactions and take steps to ensure balance and fair play. Thus a useful simulation of people without the diruptive pain of the real world.
Here is an excellent presentation on R vs SPSS vs SAS. Its favorablein analysis towards R, but still a very informative piece.

Using the new PhPBB 3.0 version for creating forums was a pleasant surprise.
The Decision Stats test forum is here https://decisionstats.com/forum/ .
I liked this forum (besides being open source /free over V Bulletin). Have a look .
Linked In maths says that out of 10.008 million professionals now connected with me (thanks to my 3023 connections), most of them 9.358951million professionals came in my network since June 28 th. Today is June 30 th. I am thus adding 4.6 million professionals /day (or there is something wrong with this 🙂 )
-I am about to join myspace.com who needs this traffic to catch up with facebook.com…..
but only if they pay me .
And what would you call a movie thats part loveable Marvel hero,part James Bond humor and part brilliant casting coups. As for this year, uptil now you can call it Iron Man. While The Dark Knight, or even the soon awaited Will Smith ….starring Hancock may soon be the top grossing comic super hero based movie grosser,
this one tugs at your heart,the corner of your lips and your eyes.
Yeah Baby!

Iron man stars a billionaire playboy ,sardonic,sometimes comically ironic , and reformed arms dealer Tony Stark …………played ironically by a reformed and still twinkling eyed Robert Downey Jr).Stark after a series of unfortunate events in Afghan caves decides brilliant minds ,and corporate money can be better put to use than corporate wars and weapons design.
Yes small and subtle war messages even in mainstream movies nowadays, but the chemistry between the Stark and Miss Potts (played by a still so lovely, and where have you been Mrs Coldplay……Gwenyth Paltrow) is remarkable.. and so are the movie effects, The computer generated imagery is so good .. it seems as if not generated by computers.
Watch it with your family, kids, your love, or with your college mates. This is Hollywood at it’s entertaining best !!!
