Day Trip suggestions around Bangalore

I go mostly to temple places and loiter around but here are some suggestions for non-temple places around Bangalore for a day trip: (All are kids friendly) 1. Bheemeshwari Fishing camp 2. Bluff and Talakad(iN this you can also stay in Jaladama for a night - it's good) 3. Srirangapatna (Lunch & dinner at Amblee Resort) 4. Horsley Hill (I went there for 2 days but can be covered in a day) 5. Devarayana Durga Hills

Interesting internal URLs in Chrome

Image
If you are using Chrome and love the feature where typing in few characters at the address bar completes the URL, have a look at  chrome://predictors/  (Type it in address bar). Lists all the combinations that have been used and their frequency. Now you know why typing in f lists facebook.com and not ftv.com  One more interesting URL for chrome users:  chrome://omnibox/ It lists out how your omnibox (address bar in other browsers) list out contents in the drop down as you type. For e.g., just type india and press submit. It will list out options which it will show in the drop down when you actually type it out in omnibox. And it also shows category where it was fetched from (history/bookmarks/google search)
