Nasty Battle #8: iPhones Vs Android Phones

Image
It’s been quite a while since I wrote a post and what is a better way to come back than a post on Technology ! Laymen call them competitors, but I tend to think of them as warriors of this modern era. Both of them have touched heights in the field of technology and ushered in a generation of pro and anti supporters. Yes, I am talking about the epic battle between Apple and Google. Apple and google make various products and services and hence it’s going to be impossible to assess each and every one of their services in this small post and so I decided to compare their top two smartphones. Give it up for iPhones on the left and Android devices on the right ! iPhone, the name is enough. No seriously, iPhone ! Ok let’s not stretch the joke too far. iPhone is in more ways responsible for the ‘touch generation’. They may not have been the first ones to get a touch phone out but they were certainly the first ones to do it right. Since then the usual bitten-Apple has undergone...

Nasty Battles #7 - Mumbai Vs Delhi

Image
A tale of two cities - One was an epitome of arrogance, the other an epitome of humility. One prided itself in its gol gappe, the other quietly devoured its pani puri. One flaunted its red beacon cars, the other paraded its haute couture. Both were worshippers of drama though - one of the parliamentary kinds, the other, of theatrical kinds. One was Dilli, the other, Bombay. Mumbai on Delhi - Delhi? Oh yes, the Capital.. Not that one's cared about it since the Commonwealth Games. Nevermind. Three things that define Delhi, though, would be - ARROGANCE, (ANNOYINGLY) HEAVY ACCENT and 'TU JAANTA NAHI MERA BAAP KAUN HAI'. No, seriously, after 'clubbing-shubbing' and driving drunk, all they manage to say on being busted is.. Tu Jaanta Nahi Mera Baap Kaun hai -_- (whatever gave them the impression that we care).  And dear ladies, what's that place where you shop? Oh! SAROJINI! Are we dressing up for Dandi March or what! And oh! Let me tell you a secret, all...

Nasty Battle #5 - Eminen Vs Tupac

Image
Everyone who is into rap has definitely heard these 2 names, but the age old question has always been who is the better out of the two, sure people will say that Pac is dead and it’s not fair comparing him with Slim Shady but let’s just get on with it. Will the Real Slim Shady Please Stand Up: Everyone who is a true fan of Eminem (or as some people prefer to call him, ‘Slim Shady’) knows that his first album was the Slim Shady LP, and that the way that this Angry White Blond Haired rapper made people notice his presence in the world of rap was with his hit single “My Name Is”. Since then this man has come to win 331 awards out of which 13 are Grammies and one is an Oscar for his award winning performance in his film 8Mile. All his albums have gone to platinum and been in the top 5 of the billboard, a truly phenomenal achievement in the field of music.  However as popular as Eminem is for his music he is equally well known for his notoriety. The fact is that Eminem has s...

Freedom

When I came to this city, my first impression was very vague. To describe my emotions, I would like to pen down a poem. I hated the running around, the cacophonous sound, the never ending nights, the extremely bright lights, the non-stop rains, and the rush in the local trains. I felt like going back home, into the known world, my own Rome. I thought it was a struggle with destiny, but my mind wanted mutiny. Somehow a month passed by, the city embraced me but I still wanted to bid goodbye. I spoke to my dad, he said you can come home my dear lad, but fight it out in the city for a year, it may just bring you some cheer. So I dug my heels in, prepared to face every sin. Slowly and gradually the city won me over, Going back home seemed like a push over. I never realized that a shift had taken place, my bachelor pad had turned into a home I now embraced. As ...
