Its a bright and sunny morning after a long duration of cloudy days. We are reaching Point Noire port in Congo tonight. Time to see if my global sim card still works in Congo.

I recently started using Friendcaster for accessing facebook on my tablet. So far, it has proved to be the best application to see facebook newsfeed ever.

Im getting really annoyed about these daily astrological messages coming up on my facebook news feed. How is it that not one of these messages are about my star?

News reel

I read the news about how two girls were arrested for questioning the Bandh after Bal Thackeray's death. No one wants Bal saheb's demise to be remembered for this. By arresting them, the people responsible have stole the thunder away from the main issue and handed it on a silver platter to the girls involved. That being said, Im not sure if writing about this constitutes a violation of laws. Now both these girls have to live out their life for the next few months in fear of what could happen. Every time there is an anniversary, they would have to keep a low profile. Look at how the general responsible for Blue Star operation was attacked 38 years after the incident, inspite of just being a loyal and obedient Government servant.
Most people believe that the IT law should make it clear about what grounds people could be arrested for. I believe that more you start defining the law, the more it stays ambiguous. It is a modern wonder how the civil and criminal laws survived for this many years in a culturally diverse region as India. I believe the Genius of the other Saheb from Maharashtra should receive a mention here.

Finally, we managed to leave Cape Town after the frequent start stop of cargo operations due to strong winds. Now Im on my way to Point Noire in Congo. The weather is rougher than usual, but its something that we have come to be accustomed to in this part of the world. Good Fauna watch too, considering the number of seals, whales and dolphins you see here.

I hadnt used my tablet for a very long time since I joined the ship. Yesterday, I decided to take a while to customize it to my style. The time spent was fruitful, as I found smart and quick ways of checking my mails, facebook, twitter, rss and blog accounts. It is even making me question the ways Im accessing them right now.

We passed Mauritius this morning. I wish I could be on a holiday there sometime.
