On Sex and Linux

June 5, 2006 07:15 by admin

I was browsing through my stats pages and came across a couple of pretty interesting findings.

It's quite funny that my blog turns up #1 on Google when someone does a search for 'sex pics' in Sri Lanka.

Next, why on earth does my blog come up #1 before Sanjiva's for 'blog linux Sri Lanka'

A quick search on Live.com gives much better results . On 'blog linux Sri Lanka', merill.net never makes an appearance in the first few pages.

Back Online

September 20, 2005 17:35 by admin

Ahh.. Feels so sweet to be back online. My hosting server got screwed up and I had to wait till Madura got back to work to fix it up. Wierdly, all that was needed was to just start up the IIS service. Grr... why didn't I look into that.

Lot's of stuff has been happening since I was offline. The Tech.Ed site (www.teched.lk) went live, registrations have now opened for Tech.Ed. Loads of very, very cool stuff planned. Even more loads of giveaways. Boy, this is going to be a whole lot of geek goodness.

I just found out from Madura that Kavinda left for Boston in the morning today and I was thinking that he was leaving tonight. Hope he finds time to blog from there.

My cousin brother Tarin got married week before last (my brother and I were the 'best-men'), the count-down to my wedding has started (that's right folks Jan 28th '06 is my D-Day).

Ed was down here last week for a couple of days and spent a whole day with me taking me through all the stuff that I should know about as a Developer Evangelist. I keep pinching myself that I am now a Microsoftee and a Developer Evangelist at that too. What can I say, I'm super excited!

Who is Scott?

January 7, 2005 15:01 by admin

One of my former colleagues Nadeera forwarded this mail to me, I wonder how authentic it is?

You must have always wondered why the username / password in SQL is Scott/Tiger....

Who is this Scott? Here is the answer to your query....

So,  who is Scott?

Bruce Scott was one of the first employees at Oracle (then  Software Development Laboratories). He co-founded Gupta Technology (now known as Centura Software) in 1984 with Umang Gupta, and later became CEO and founder of  PointBase, Inc.

Bruce was co-author and co-architect of Oracle V1, V2  and V3.

The SCOTT schema (EMP and DEPT tables), with password TIGER, was  created by him. Tiger was the name of his cat.
