Elephanta Caves


Yesterday I visited Elephanta Caves which are beautifully carved shiv temples out of solid rock mountain. These caves dates back to 5-7 century A.D. You can reach there by a ferry from Gate Way of India, Bombay. The ferry ride was awesome with beautiful view of sea, Gate way of India, Taj hotel and mountains along with refreshing and cool breeze.

The Story Behind These Company Names

Here are some interesting encounter how these companies got their name :…

Apache - It got its name because its founders got started by applying patches to code written for NCSA’s httpd daemon. The result was ‘A PAtCHy’ server -– thus, the name Apache.

CISCO - Its not an acronym but the short for San Francisco.

Hewlett-Packard (HP) - Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard tossed a coin to decide whether the company they founded would be called Hewlett-Packard or Packard-Hewlett, and the winner was NOT Bill…the winner was Dave.

Apple Computers - Steve Jobs was three months late in
filing a name for the business because he didn’t get any better
name for his new company. So one day he told to the staff: “If
I’ll not get better name by 5 o’clock today, our
company’s name will be anything he likes…” So at 5
o’clcok nobody come up with better name, and he was eating Apple
that time… so he keep the name of the company ‘Apple Computers’.
