Welcome to GHYANA-QA S/W,Wi-Fi & Neil Botz

GHYANA derived from Sanskrit means the “Knowledge” and is the only path to achieve happiness, prosperity and liberation—if you believe in it.
I have been planning to start my blog for a long time but kept on, delaying it for years and now that I have started one, I do not know where to start but as my title suggests, I am going to devote my blog to Technology, Telecom and Current Affairs.
QA S/W
Just finished attending a web seminar on the HP-Mercury -- Mercury Quality Center 9.0. It is a software suite for application testing and looks good from the front end. Screen roll ups and drill downs are great and all elements of software development life cycle are taken care of. How well the automated testing will work and the defect logs are created needs to be seen? If you guys are in software testing give it a shot.
Wi-Fi
Just read about the trials T-mobile is doing on handsets with GSM and Wi-Fi capabilities and I am sure it will work; I see a great prospect of saving valuable any time minutes. Of course when you are homed to Wi-Fi network how to secure your calls are--- is still a matter of discussion? I have not seen much on that but I am sure hundreds of security companies that are around these are working to provide some kind of solutions. Each solution they provide comes up with it own vulnerabilities and they come up with patches to fix it and the cycle goes on and on. Long live unsecured environment
Neil Botz
More and more I listen to Neil Botz during my commute to the office more and more I agree with his point of veiw– that Government is stupid and less we have it the better off we are. Legislators spend more time in getting around archaic laws then making new laws. The story he narrated this morning was about a woman that had a stuffed seagull (a migratory bird which is unlawful to own) lying in her restaurant for probably 160 years and was declared to be a punishable offence when some Govt. official caught its eye. After lot of negotiation a deal was reached through a senator for her to legally display it in her shop.
