Don’t you just hate writing essays in uni, the research bit is fun, cuz you get to find stuff and immediately absorb it into the abyss of that gray matter in your skull. Deadlines are the most dreaded as we are all procrastinators and the worst part is referencing, the requirement to avoid plagiarism in my uni is Harvard Referencing. It’s sometimes known as the “sacred cow” of the campus.
bye bye eCircles
For users of eCircles.com, you might want to know that they have put up this notice on their site.
I regret to inform you that the eCircles.com web site will permanently shut down on April 15, 2001 and will no longer be available thereafter. The market downturn of the last 12 months made it increasingly difficult to cover the costs of operating the eCircles site.
If there is data in your circles that you wish to keep, please log on to retrieve it before April 15th. I’ve included instructions below.
We truly appreciate your patronage over the last several years and we hope you’ll continue to find ways to stay connected with your friends and families.
Sincerely,

eCircles.com
I personally am in 5 eCircles.com, so its quite sad, that such a good service has to fold. Also PhotoPoint.com will start charging in May 2001. I really think such free services should be kept free if they wanted to offered it free in the first place.
Enough rantings… I really want to commend these sites for the good they have brought the the internet users at large and that its such a pity that they have to go. eCircles.com will always have a place in my heart.
Katie Couric
A very good inspirational 10 years to Katie Couric of the Today Show who is one of the best TV persons out there.
“She’s interviewed presidents, movie stars, poets and puppets. She’s ridden in a hot air balloon, thrown a boomerang, and she’s sung everything from Gershwin to the Beefaroni commercial. Yes, we’re talking about none other than our own Katie Couric, and it was 10 years ago on April 5, that she became co-anchor Today.” ~ taken from MSNBC
eye candies
I love eye candies, hence photography is an art i wish to embrace. Although i have not been formally trained in photography, I still go around taking pictures. You can go to my PhotoPoint Album (offlined) to have a look at few of them.
no more books
Its amazing how fast books are snapped up from the library when everyone is doing research. How I wish all books are online and that I can access their content from my room without needing to touch those dusty shelves.
