Ticket to Space
Jan 18, 2007 Author: haobam | Filed under: NewsEvery person, at some point of a time, as a kid, dreamed of becoming an astronaut. Well I ended being a Web designer is another story ;)
Some people like Anousheh travel to space to realize that dream. I followed every entry of her space blog while she was up in space. But then she, reportedly, paid huge amount to book her seat.
Now the good news even lesser mortal, who can shell out a cool $200,000, will be able to experience space, with the new Virgin Galactic - THE FUTURE IS NOW: Booking Open.
And if you heard renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking is planning a ride to space, the news might just be true.
As for me I’d to wait till the next celestial rendezvous and hit a jackpot. Wish me luck. And after all, a 2 hr trip is not my liking. Yuk! the grape is definitely sour today ;)

Cuil.com the new search engine from former Google employees, touted as the Google killer. Are they joking, not just yet. I don't want to just write if off, but I feel they still got a long way to go. - Knight's Tale -

With great reviews from all corners, the Dark Knight is all over the news. Heath Ledger as the Joker seems to have overshadowed the Batman. Man I'd to go watch it, but the all the weekend shows are booked :( - WordPress 2.6 -
Haobam.com upgraded to WordPress2.6. Quite a smooth ride upgrading from v2.5, unlike the last time.

Kudos to Collis Ta'eed and team, after the successful quality tutorial sites like PSDTuts, NetTuts, VectorTuts. They have launched another spoonfed tutorial site, AudioTuts. And if you think you can write kickass tutorials they pay you $150 for every tutorial published! - FontExplorer X -

FontExplorer™ X is a great font management from Linotype. And the best part is, its FREE. Currently only the Mac version is available for download. But check back soon, the Windows version is coming real soon. - Download day 2008 -

Have always dreamed of being space bound..But two hour trip sounds too short! And that too for that whooping sum?! Guess i would rather stick to experiencing that feet-not-on-the-ground feeling by sky diving!
Sky dive.. hmmm thats one step closer :)
