Hello there, today is pizza day in US. If eating turkey is a traditional thanksgiving meal, then eating pizza is a traditional before thanksgiving meal. According to a news channel, pizza sales grow from 34% to 200% on this particular day. Eating pizza is supposed to be a warm-up or a stretching kind of thing for thanks giving turkey!

iPhone goes contract free in Germany. Cool isn't it? No, not so fast. T-mobile, who was official carrier for iphone and lost its case to Vodafone, is offering this contract-free iphone for 999Euros(1500$). This is pretty disappointing. Will this be a good news to iphone customers? I seriously doubt it. At such a huge price, it is certainly out of reach for most of the population. I hope apple gives it a serious thought and come up with some reasonable price.

Google's "I'am feeling lucky" button is being analyzed if it is really lucky for its business. This button usually takes a user directly to a web site instead on giving its user a list of choice. For example, if you type "Pizza" in the google search space and click "I am feeling lucky" button, then it will take you directly to Pizza hut home page. According to
MarketPlace, around 1% of the total google searches are performed using this button. Even though this number seems low, according to Tom Chavez in the article, it is bringing 110 million dollar loss to the company annually. This is becuase, when a user uses this button it will take him directly to a web page and he will not see any google ads which are the revenue makers for this search engine giant. Some people even think that this button is there just to show-off the power of google. Google will be carrying this button, looks like it is feeling lucky about it!

Like most of the celebrities in AP, she successfully performed the tradition of beating up Reporters, with the help of her family members. Now family members got arrested.

Stage set in Firoze shah Kotla stadium for the first test match between India and Pakistan on Thursday November 22nd. Kumble will be the captain for team India. A lot of expectations are on the senior team which includes the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Sourav Ganguly, V.V.S. Laxman and Anil Kumble. The Pace duo RP Singh and Sreeshant are out of the series, and Yuvraj Singh on bench. I have always been a big fan of Kumble. This guy can do some serious damage with his leg spin. Hope India will perform to its potential and win this series! Good Luck team!

Well Guys.. Happy Holidays!!
