More trouble for Paris Hilton

She seems to be getting into more trouble. This is one disadvantage of being famous!

Check out this story from theregister

Paris Hilton’s address book, famously kept on a T-Mobile Sidekick, has been popping up all over the internet after someone managed to figure out her password.

The Drudge Report says that it has confirmed the authenticity of many of the numbers, presumably a polite way of saying they’ve been crank calling Anna Kournikova and Lindsay Lohan all weekend. The FBI has reportedly opened an investigation.

Files exposed to the world also include Paris’ travel habits, airline and hotel preferences, along with her private notes.

The information landed online just days after hacker Nicolas Jacobsen pled guilty to a single charge of intentionally accessing a protected computer and recklessly causing damage. Jacobsen was arrested by US authorities last October, but had had access to T-Mobile’s servers for more than a year. He reportedly amused himself by accessing US Secret Service email, and raiding other Sidekick users’ accounts.

William Genovese, a friend of Jacobsen’s in the hacker community, told Security Focus that Jacobsen sent him pictures of celebrities, purportedly snapped with their camera phones. Genovese faces unrelated charges for allegedly selling leaked Microsoft source code.

While Paris must by now be used to being overexposed online, many of the people in her little black book were less than pleased with the leak. According to the Drudge Report, one starlet said “I gave her my number after we met in Miami, I did not know she f**king kept it on her cellphone!”

Reality TV star Victoria Gotti told New York Daily News that she had received over 100 phone calls in two hours. “It’s driving me insane,” she said.

Website updates….

Planning to do a major revamp of my website arjunprabhu.com
Today, I took the first step in this direction. That should keep me going. Plan to do a total redesign and also plan to move to a new webhost. (Any suggestions for a good webhost?)

This time, I want to make my site “Best viewed with firefox” kind :) and ditch ASP for good, and take up php. Right now, I have just uploaded a plain text page, more features will be added in the future.

Graphics ? - Illustrator it is!

For the past few days, I am into vector graphics!….. Its a bit different from the normal graphics work that I do!

The entire concept of vector graphics is a bit “different”. You have lot of flexibility. Its takes a bit of time to understand the funda’s, but then its pretty simple and very powerful.

Adobe Illustrator CS is really coool. Not tried out other software/tools, but this seems real cool.

Why am I into this ? .. well, got to design a logo for one of the units within our company!.

I am become a graphics man @ workplace :)……… Its just a hobby for me…was never a profession! :).., but I love it!……………

Adobe Photoshop CS + Adobe Illustrator CS + Creativity => Anything is possible!

Shooter Rathore strikes silver

Ace Indian shooter Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore provided the silver lining to India’s dismal showing at the Athens Olympics when he finished second in the final of the men’s double-trap shooting event at the 28th Olympic Games in Athens on Tuesday.

Why is every indian so proud about this ?

The only other athletes to ever win individual medals for India at the Olympics are Khashba Jadhav, in the 1952 Helsinki Games, Leander Paes, at Atlanta in 1996, and Karnam Malleshwari, in Sydney 2000. All won bronze medals.

Hopes are high!…..All the best to the Indian Team !
