Bindra's gold makes his blog popular

http://abhinavbindra.blogspot.com/

This must be the most popular blog written by an Indian sportsperson ever, judging from the number of comments each post is attracting. Just look at the number of comments for the last few posts:

143 81 74 256 183 894

The 894 comments are for a blog post titled 'The day after' which is the first post Abhinav made after winning his Olympic gold. They are full of congratulatory messages from patriotic Indian sports fans. I'm joining the chorus too. Congrats Bindra, for making every Indian proud.

Hope your blog remains popular for a long time to come, and hope some of that popularity rubs off on some non-cricket sports in India!

Amazing concept car from BMW

Engineers at BMW have come up with a new concept car called GINA. Well not exactly new, because the car was developed 6 years ago, but for some strange reason BMW chose to keep it under wraps for so long! May be they were waiting for the right moment to unveil it.

Whatever be the reason for the delay, GINA looks amazing. Check out the video here. Its metal body is covered by some kind of a fabric which allows the driver to change its shape as per his wish.

You won't be able to see this car on the roads because this is not meant for mass production and will probably be confined to the BMW museum in Munich.
