This weekend, planned for the movie -"Tamil Padam".Heard its very comical one..I started checking some online bookings for the tickets..There wasnt any tickets in any good theatre. Desperate to kill my boredom, tried booking in a "ok type.." theatre..Movie plan was with my cousin.
As in any website, you can select your seats, I chose two and clicked next for the payment gateway. Only three seats were available by then..Then i realised i had chosen the wrong credit card type, as i couldnt navigate back opened a fresh window for booking. To my dismay those two seats were greyed out. Though i havent made payments on a selection, ticket is deemed to be booked..I thought, somewhere someone like me would be the programmer for this stupid site :-)
Then i refershed..refreshed..for some 10mins..nothing positive worked...
After sometime, tried in an other browser, and luckily it was available..So the programmer is now in a decent grade. If it hadnt worked in other browser, i would have cursed him/her even more badly..
If this is the case, once could click all the seats, and quit without making payemnts isnt, which would incur great loss to the theatre owner...
In yet another site, a drop down menu throwed an error -"null 0"..Again somewhere some programmer had written, and somewhere a tester like me had tested :-)
World is small, and we keep witnessing it!!

But think of 5 years back when there was no online booking and we have to go all the way to check tickets were available and that looong travel will prompt us to buy tickets at black at abnormal costs. Lets celebrate IT & pple involved it
