TomTom VIA125 Satellite Navigation

TomTom has entered the Indian navigation market and we get our hands on its flagship product the VIA125. There are several international navigation systems that have found it difficult to sustain them in the Indian market. TomTom is Europe’s leading GPS device and we see how well does it fares in Indian conditions.

One More Night

On my way back from a late night shoot, Maroon 5’s latest hit single “One More Night” was streaming through the speakers as I was humming the lyrics, until I parked the car and walked home to my bed. Then began my attempt to get some sleep, which for some reason had divorced me for this particular night despite it being about 4 a.m. I felt like an insomniac, as even the ticking of the clock on the furthest wall in my room seemed to be distracting me. “One more night&rdq

Nano Car in Mega City

Tata Nano has covered a lot of roads since its entry in the Indian car market. Although it did not sell in the numbers that was expected of it, it did drive to some destinations, which was certainly not expected of it. It went on a round the country drive through the golden quadrilateral and it also managed to inspire an intrepid senior citizen who was well into his sixties to drive it on the world's highest motorable road i.e, Khardungla pass in Ladakh. But the fact remains that Tata Na

Twenty percent of the surface area of India is covered under forest – well this has been the oft repeated statistical data that most of my contemporaries – read people in their forties – must have come across during their school days. The other part of the same conundrum is that Madhya Pradesh is supposed to have the biggest area land area under forest cover. But mere statistics - as per Land Use Statistics, Ministry of Agriculture, GOI, 2008-09, Madhya Pradesh has 869600

I would give a little bit of an introduction about what this article is all about, but then I look at the title. And the title doesn't leave much scope for suspense, does it? So I will skip the unnecessary ranting and get straight to it. After prolonged sessions of brainstorming, 'F1 circuits' were the two words that finally clicked. And before delving into the world of Formula One circuits and explaining exactly why some made it to the 'top 5' list, let me do a little bit of explaining ab
