These nights are supposed to be LONELY as I am the only one in the building (actually in all the four buildings combined), apart from the security guards and office boys, of course. However, I&#8217;ve found my companions, and ways to refresh myself. I&#8217;ll list some of them.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>1. <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Online Web\/Security Cameras<\/span>: Some of you who know that Google provides an API for refining the search queries (with a capital &#8220;R&#8221;) also know that the giant&#8217;s database is like an ocean. And you never really know what&#8217;s inside an ocean unless and until you dive in it. As you dive deeper, your jaw drops in awe.<br \/>\nLong story cut short, I use the query to discover (a part of) all AXIS cameras online.<br \/>\nFor curious lot, the query is: <span style=\"font-style:italic;color:#666600;\">inurl:\/view\/view.shtml AXIS<\/span> and sometimes <span style=\"color:#666600;font-style:italic;\">intitle:&#8221;Live View \/ &#8211; AXIS&#8221; | inurl:view\/view.sht <\/span><br \/>\n[As I am writing this, I wanted check the second query. So I chose one of the results and something spooky happened. Someone was already controlling the camera. hehe.<br \/>\nI was moving it right, he\/she was moving it left. We fought for a while but then I closed the window. I am nice guy you see :D)<\/p>\n<p>Okay let&#8217;s proceed.<br \/>\nSo I have a bookmarked folder called &#8220;PastTime&#8221; on my browser, which has my favorite cameras bookmarked. My most fave are:<br \/>\ni) A coffee\/wine shop camera, which is more lively during the night. Luckily, the camera is provided officially, so I can provide the link without any worries. Find the link to the camera here:  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.buzzbeachbar.com\/oludeniz_buzz_beach_bar_live_webcam.html\">buzzjunction_webcam<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.buzzbeachbar.com\/bjn11.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.buzzbeachbar.com\/bjn11.jpg\" style=\"display:block;text-align:center;cursor:pointer;width:320px;margin:0 auto 10px;\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>ii) A camera in the study room of a Polytechnic school of NewYork. It&#8217;s a small room with a coffee machine, a microwave oven (?), a printer, a sofa, a bookshelf, and an elliptical table with power connection for the laptops and notebooks.<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s the best part. People come here with there laptops, and sometimes I sit down looking at there screens, trying to figure out what they are doing. \ud83d\ude1b<br \/>\nI have also become acquainted with some regular visitors.<br \/>\nA spectacled guy with a cap and a laptop. (He is leaving right now. No kidding. What a coincidence [jawdrop])<br \/>\nA black girl, who has the headphones exactly like mine.<br \/>\nTwo Muslim girls, with one Dell XPS laptop (probably).<br \/>\nThe bad part is, there are no visitors on sundays \ud83d\ude41<br \/>\niii) A micro\/nano lab camera of one of the world&#8217;s most famous universities. There&#8217;s nothing engaging about this, apart from the fact that the guys (or girls) roam around in spacesuit sort of dresses.<br \/>\niv) A set of four surveillance cameras. Three of them pointing to car parking locations and one focussed inside some kind of room. I am still not able to get it yet. The only thing that makes me stick to it is the word &#8220;surveillance&#8221; \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>There are couple of others focussed on traffic, colleges, hostels (I guess), lake, parks&#8230; but they are pretty boring and pictures are not really clear.<br \/>\nI&#8217;d like to try my hands on other cameras like linksys too. Let&#8217;s see when.<\/p>\n<p>2. <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Google Again<\/span>: Google queries can be real fun.<br \/>\nHave you ever come across a search result when Google tells you that the original number of results is pretty large, however, most of them are sort of repetitions hence they have been truncated.<br \/>\nHave a look at the following two pictures.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><span style=\"font-family:georgia;\"><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/projectbee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/pic11.jpg\" title=\"pic1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/projectbee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/pic11.jpg\" alt=\"pic1.jpg\" height=\"390\" width=\"804\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-family:georgia;\"><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><span style=\"font-family:georgia;\"><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">This one&#8217;s the normal result.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:georgia;\"><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/projectbee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/pic21.jpg\" title=\"pic2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/projectbee.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/pic21.jpg\" alt=\"pic2.jpg\" height=\"292\" width=\"808\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-family:georgia;\"><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><span style=\"font-family:georgia;\"><span style=\"font-size:130%;\">Here I ask Google <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">NOT TO OMIT ANY RESULT.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:georgia;\"><span style=\"font-size:130%;\"><br \/>\nYou think that&#8217;s funny?<br \/>\nI leave it up to you to decide.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>3. <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Slashdot, and blogs<\/span> of others friends (and their friends) and some geeks like de Icauza etc. Initially I was a Digg addict, but then got completely fed up.<br \/>\nSo guys, keep blogging. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>4. <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Movies and Documentaries<\/span>: Net speed during the night is awesome (generally). So I don&#8217;t mind downloading them. Though I don&#8217;t get time to watch them.<\/p>\n<p>5. Off late I&#8217;ve also found some <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">vulnerabilities <\/span>in the policies and network of my company. I try to keep the management informed.<br \/>\nAfter all it&#8217;s my company. I&#8217;d definitely not like any jerk to poke his nose in.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it.<br \/>\nThese five (along with the songs being played ALL the time) are currently more than enough to consume my free time (In fact more than JUST the free time).<br \/>\nBut even after all this, it gets freaking lonely sometimes&#8230; not that I am complaining \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I stay back in the office during night and return back at around 6-7 am, when everybody is coming :).
