Contestant, blog kar diya jaye?

Amitabh Bachchan has found his voice again — and how! After playing the Grand Old Gent of Bollywood for more than a few years, the B Chord seems to be relishing in airing his views, so what if everyone’s wondering why he has to be trashing it out with Shah Rukh Khan on a blog or playing Uncle-ji with Rahul Gandhi while radiating a smile towards his bestest of friends, Amar Singh. An eventful week found Bachchan talking away like a Kader Khan dialogue going off the rails. We look at his diary entries (which will probably be posted on bigb.bigadda.com even before this has gone to print):

Microsoft Parrots Google In Suggesting Tie-Up With Yahoo Violates Antitrust Laws

Back in February, we pointed out that Google was playing with fire in suggesting that a Microsoft-Yahoo merger would violate antitrust laws. It seemed fairly obvious that those statements would come back to haunt Google -- a company many others have been accusing of antitrust violations. And, indeed, even with Microsoft still trying to buy Yahoo, Microsoft is now making nearly identical antitrust claims against Google concerning its ad deal with Yahoo. It's all legal posturing, of course, in an attempt to get the government to annoy a competitor. As Declan McCullagh points out at the link above, if either company really believes that the other was violating antitrust laws, it's perfectly free to file a private antitrust lawsuit. But, instead, both companies are playing a game in trying to get the government to be a pest for the other -- a

Robocup 2008 Droids Cooperate Like Real Soccer Team, With Fewer Hissy Fits

Miniature humanoid robots are getting more impressive by the day: this video shows the Darmstadt Dribblers team in action in the recent 2008 Robocup. And if you notice, they're really playing like proper autonomous soccer teams. It's the first year that three-on-three playing action has happened, and thus required some nifty role negotiation and info exchange over Wi-Fi. That's in addition to avoiding obstacles, finding the ball visually and trying to score goals. Okay, so that opposing team needs a better goalie, but at least watching this robotic version of the beautiful game means you get to see less diving and hissy fits at the referee. Impressive stuff, no? [YouTube.—Thanks Stefan]
