Missed Calls in India? Find out who now!

Ever got a missed call and wondered and wondered who it could possibly be from? Well, know you can know! Well, not exactly. Through the free missed call lookup service you can now see the location and the operator of any mobile phone in India.
I came up with the idea when a ‘shady’ friend of mine sent me border-line ‘shady’ messages when she got a new number.  The data available is not 100% up-to-date and is mostly restricted to GSM phones. Will try to update as and when.

Post script: Since this was such a technical project involving php and mysql (finally understand it a bit!), the need to make it ‘arty’ is more than needed. Ideas include tracking its growth using Google Analytics and some devious viral marketing schemes. Facebook for one. Sending out SMS’s (SM-messes :) to whole bunch of ppl with this link seeing if they respond. Saying ‘I’m your garbage. Trace me’. Haha.  Hmm.. viral marketing warplan needed! Full on combat! End result a pictoral representation of Analytics data? To show how humans function like viruses. Matrix style.  Okay whatever.

New Free WordPress Theme


I’m oh so happy to announce the release of my very first WordPress theme. Simply Pink version 1.0.

Simply Pink is a simple, minimalistic WordPress theme intended to look more like a small personal website than a blog. It is center-aligned, fixed-width and has two columns. It has been tested for compatibility in Firefox and Internet Explorer (7 so far, 5 and 6 tomorrow). It has not been validated so far In fact, it has failed the XHTML validator terribly so far. Some 9 errors.

The aim is to make it a nice, simple portfolio style site somewhere down the line.

Things to do for next version:

  • un-alphabetise page list
  • favicon
  • test images
  • test on IE
  • footer background image (make independent)
  • Header background : allow more colour variations
  • figure out how to work longer posts/pages
  • add categories/comments
  • figure out width scrolling as opposed to height scrolling
