Oz Vs. Us
The recent Aus-India one day series has really been more than just a cricket tournament. Words were exchanged, tempers were raised and swords were crossed between the two teams.
Australia off late has been a team whose members doesn't mind sledging on the cricket field and they dont mind hitting it below the belt. Indians have tasted this before. But, this time the Indians had decided to give it back to the Oz. And the Oz were clearly rattled by this. You must have heard Andrew Symonds and Ricky Ponting saying that the Indians are crossing the limit. They have clearly show sings of cracks in their ranks. They just can't take what they have been serving to the rest of the world.
Aus has long been involved into Racism and this is due to the conditions back in Australia. In Australia racism is everywhere. They say that its not there but it is. In Australia if you belong to a lower sect or class u can never make it to the international level.. be it sports or anything else.
Well, lets not worry about Australia much. I am really happy this India team has been matching word to word with the Oz.

We have the Forums!! Finally!!
Yup, all the hard work that the team had put in has finally paid off. All those sleepless nights in the office has finally meant something. It was close but yet so far for us. But now when we have done it, we are very much releaved.
We have been trying to launch the Forums section of our website for quite sometime now. But, the software we are using gave us nightmares. Its just a badly coded piece of software with an endless count of bugs. You fix one, just to find that another one has been revealed. Its been real tough for the team to fix these bugs. Finally we decided to go live with a ton of functionality turned off. And it just suits our requirements. We would have loved to have the extra bits of functionality but anyways, we are just happy to have it live.
There are other interesting things that I can look upto now....
