10 most annoying programs on your computer
Techrepublic has listed 10 most annoying programs to a computer user, both on the system and on the internet.
I have slightly changed the list and put them in the ascending order of the degree of annoyance. Though the intensity of pain in the ass that these bugs produce is purely subjective, there is no gainsaying that there exist some specimens of terror in digital form which inflict universally on the hapless users.
10. Flash
Flash is a good program. There is nothing to replace Flash movies - SWF or FLV. In fact the Youtube revolution has been made possible only by Flash. And Flash embedded players have ushered in the phenomenon of podcasting. In fact your cyber life would be thrown light years backwards with out Flash.
But having said that, there is no forgiving truckloads of Flash movies in intro pages of web sites. They trickle like molasses in December!
9. Yahoo and Google Toolbars

Ragamalika podcast
Here is another one (as a Proof of Concept!).
This piece of Carnatic Music in Thamizh (Tamil) is set in 26 Ragas with the names of ragas voiced as part of the lyric.
“Odam” (Boat) is a Ragamalika of 26 Ragas string like a diamond necklace, rendered by Mambalam Sisters with their sweet voice.
The file for download is here.
This piece of carnatic music is provided purely for enabling appreciation of carnatic music. No commenrcial use is permitted.
Enjoy!
Carnatic podcast
I have an audio clip here. It is an invocation on Lord Ganesha sung by Mambalam Sisters, the famous carnatic music duo.
The RSS feed (enclosure) for the audio file is working! I tested it just now with iPodder
There is a short but adequate tutorial on use of Podcasting in Wordpress by Cris J Davis here.
If you are stuck in your attempt, please give me a holler.
