the most useful post here, ever

since you've pretty much gotten nothing for being such a loyal reader i thought i'd make it up to you and post about something that is fast becoming public knowledge on the blogosphere. to give credit where its due, i came across this atSepia mutiny and then saw another post over at anti's fortress of gregaritude.

this is what i did today. went to GVtamilfilms.com registered for free, chose to download Agni Nakshatram (for free again...its among the 20 or so titles that are up for grabs) and am watching it as i write. it took me about 2 mins to register and about 10 to 15 mins to download the 3 wmv movie files. its not dvd quality as they promise on the website but its much better than that vcd quality crap that floats on various websites. they have a motley collection of titles, many of which belong to the time before asin was born. but hey they are free for now.

so go forth and enjoy the utility of this blog for now. it's a rather limited time offer.

I downloaded Thalapathy and will probably not watch it for the nth time! Anyways, downlaoding the playing the wmv files popped a question in my curious mind... how did YOU watch it on your powerbook?

anti : since you are a trivia buff, i'm guessing you got the import of that phrase and the fictional word..if not mail me

PRS : the answer may have been windows media player 9 for mac os x..however your curious mind also assumed i watched it on my powerbook which i didnt.

you are being sarcastic, right? i found the post hilarious. thought you were taking the mickey out of the typical link exchange blogs. hmm. not so funny anymnore. what is the meaning of that difficult 'greg...titude'???

catcharun said...

daily: hmm..no. i guess we have to invent a sarcasm font to properly indicate it. i was just observing netiquette and linking to something i found interesting. the title was meant to be sarcastic though as i'd rather people waste time on my blog than on a movie :)

fortress of solitude - superman's headquarters
since no word meaning the opposite of solitude ends in tude, i just made it up..go to anti's blog, read the title

nimbu : u are welcome. now if you could choose one of those for a retroscope, i'd be much obliged.
agni nakshatram is a fine movie to be analysed your way.
