I have always relied on sky charts to guide me through the heavens. Printed charts suck because they usually calibrate the sky for 40 degree North (or south). So I end up using KStars.

Bangalore Sucks ! I would gladly leave the city given the slightest chance. While its hard surviving as a pedestrian on the dangerous roads where vehicles Speed Up instead of Slowing Down if they see a human form trying to cross the road, its even harder to survive as an amateur backyard sky-gazer.
