impulsebuyer Save your unhappiness for the people responsible: Oil companies. All this fear mongering is a tactic by them to raise prices and try to squeeze a few extra dollars out of us all :/

Stickman Says App
This is a nice fun app thats FREE! The idea is that its a memory game, the stick figure does a few moves and you need to remember to repeat them. The best part about this app is that the stickman is so funny, it moves in a way funny way and it makes me laugh. Try it out...

Quicklytics App
On a 10 hour road trip i might as well start looking at website stats and shit! This is a great app given that its free. Definitely worth buying. Wished they had a weekly stats thing as well, apart from daily, monthly. Definitely recommend it.

impulsebuyer I'm not sure how this is useful... Can you explain why someone might want stats about a website?
beverlynoelle So you can tell who's visiting, what times, what pages get the most hits, that sort of thing, right?
thathoo yes @beverlynoelle thats correct, it will tell you all that stuff. of course you would need to have google analytics set up on your site...
thathoo @impulsebuyer well the thing is that if you are a business website or even a personal website owner you would like to know where your users are coming from, what they are searching for to come to your site and how are they liking your site. all of these things are essential among a variety of other things... so for such reasons this app is very useful
impulsebuyer Oh that makes sense. I hadn't thought of that :/
eduardo_scoz Hey, I'm the developer of the app, great to hear you like it! :)
Aria The Buffet
Buffet (for 2) the day after in Vegas. So here's what i think about it. Its rather shoddy. I mean its fine, but not that much of variety. Its def less crowded coz of that reason. But paying 30 bucks for something like this is not my idea of value for money. The cuisine is mostly continental, there is some asian food as well but its not great at all. Eggs benedict was okayish. The sweet dishes were i guess the most tolerable part.

IKEA Skål! App
Something that @suchitagarwal wanted me to check out, its not in English but fun way to bring some geek at the party coz you could clink your iphones together in a toast for the new year.
riddlefish Lol. Toasting in other languages is more fun anyway. Na zdrowie! (Polish.)
Coupa Cafe
I had a latte with a few friends. Also met another friend while I was there. Interestingly this place is frequented by many Europeans.

Probably coz it gives you that very European cafe sorta feel. Also met @akothari there.

Standard Army Store
This is a buy i am most proud of. I bought an Indian Army sweater and it looks and feels so hottt!! I actually went to Delhi Cantonment's Gopinath Bazaar and bought it from the Army Store there. Good thing civilians are allowed to buy gear from there. This sweater is legit!

Full Circle Publishing Delhi
Wanted a book on something to do with India... so i bought the Mahatma Gandhi's interpretation of the Bhagwad Gita. Very nicely written and definitely comprehendible by the layman... i.e. me :) Also, if you have questions about life, this book might be worth a read... answers some very hard questions we come across in life
· $12.64 credit card purchase
SemtexGirl Is one of those questions: How do I make a mound of money?
riddlefish Lol @semtexgirl Yeah I heard Gandhi was big on making dough.

So is this more of a spiritual look at living then?
thathoo @SemtexGirl yea lol!
well its more of a handbook of what to do when you are faced with huge dilemmas in life. like i dont know if you have seen the movie vertical limit, the first scene in which the son has to let his father die in order to save his & his sisters life - like a dilemma like that. Like what to do when faced with hard choices in life. Many people have their own interpretations. Gandhi's interpretation are interesting coz he stood for non-violence but the book talks about a battle
Chicken Inn
Where do you go when you wanna have delectable Indian/Mughlai food at 1am in the morning when you are in Delhi? This place had waiting at 1am!! Can you believe that...

beverlynoelle The fact that it is called Chicken Inn now makes it my favorite. Sounds kind of sinister, too. "Where chickens check in...but never check out!"
