test post 2

2007-02-05T20:08:00.000+05:30

There are many articles for the above topic over the internet. They teach you all what is necessary for a new blogger. But once again the problem is that every thing is scattered. Here is CompuWorld's attempt to provide you with a set of complete HOW TO's for new bloggers.

When to blog? What to blog? Where to blog? These and many more are the questions which kill a new blogger. Our attempt here is to introduce you with the paths which a new blogger may follow if he/she wants to blog. The platforms which can be used, comparing there characteristics and then at the end suggesting you the path which our experience says is the easiest for the new blogger.

When to blog?
Do you feel bored up while reading large English contents? You have difficulty in understanding English sentences? Are you a lazy bug? You do not have easy access to internet? You do not get free time out of your daily routines?

If the answer to above questions and many such related ones is "Yes" then you need to wait. You need to develop the habit of reading. Surfing the internet for hours. Notice that I have mentioned that you should get time out of your daily works. That includes your job which you do. As my experience will never suggest you to take up blogging as your carrier unless you know the do's and dont's of blogging. You need to gain experience out here first.

Are you a student?
If yes then you need to know your targets. You need to differentiate between your future and blogging. You need to have time out of your daily routines. You need to know that yes you want to blog. "You need to be a hardworker".

Are you doing some job or you are a businessman?
You need to know if you have time for blogging? You really need to have the passion? If you want to switch as a full time blogger then first wait. Blog along with your work. See how it develops. When you start "feeling" the charm of extra work which blogging requires then think of being a full time blogger. But be secure first. Let your blog gain some fame.

Are you house wife?
Bonzai! You got all kinds of time you need. Now you need to know what to actually blog?

What to blog?
What is your passion? It is not necessary that your carrier is your passion. You like to watch T.V. shows, soap operas, like to read novels, love to keep in touch with the technology. Then go for it. Start writing.

Anything which clicks your brain is what you should write about in your blog. Read what you write many times. You will know if that was correct. Be unique, be different, if the content is old add your ideas to it, your thoughts. They will make others feel what you want to say. Hardwork and patience will never let you down.

Where to gather the content?
WWW! The ultimate place. We will have a long discussion on this topic in our later posts. Be patient.

Where to blog?
Your mind is set. Ready to hit the internet. Then its time to know about the blogging platforms available, and the ones which are best suited for you. We will explain the step by step things necessary for choosing the correct platform.

Answer these first...

Will you be a hobby blogger or are you real serious for making this your carrier? This question is a necessity to be answered as there are platforms for hobby bloggers and others for professionals.
Will you be using ads in your blog? Again a necessary question as there are platforms which provide easy support for ad publishing.
You need free platform or ready to pay straight? Have you setup your mind that you will surely go for blogging as your carrier? Or you want to have some real cool looking blog? In such a case paid is the best. But again my suggestion will be to start with a free platform and then switch to paid version. Almost all the platforms give you the feature to transfer your posts from your older platform to the newer one.

Click here to read about different blogging platforms and the one suitable for you.

Note: By no means this post is the complete guide for those new to blogging and as this post goes older it might be necessary to add your own experiences to it too. So we request you to leave your comments for improvement of this post. But yes we assure you that it is a summary of content available over the internet.

WEB 2.0, Is It Really Happening?

2006-12-10T06:46:00.000+05:30

[Image from Wikipedia]

Is the Web 2.0 really evolving? Below are given statistics from top 10000 websites listed in Alexa.(Take it real…it is Alexa and it is an analysis) I do not know who Yvo Schaap is, just happened to get into his website while surfing the Internet. But the stuff seams cool, so felt like sharing with you.

10% are adult sites. The reach of these is 5%. Who knows what the other not listed in top 10000 serve. Now you say if porn is dominating the web.
USA owns 44% of sites. Europeans 16%. China 9%. But in reach Europe is 7% against Chinese having 9%. So it is all about US yet.
55% websites are in English with second place for Chinese and third for Spanish. Arabic hold a respectable 3.3%. So English is the language of Internet “nt d slang ver tho.”
California has 37% reach and it owns 7% websites of all the 10000 listed in Alexa.Washington has 22% reach. So Silicon Valley is still the Game
Geocities.com has PageRank of 10/10 as it has 8 times more incoming links then google.com(2nd). So link building might not be very hip(but it is for the smaller not so famous websites) and trendy as you would expect.
Google actually has the biggest reach (9%) if you add all 72 local domains together. In number of views Google loses from Yahoo! that has 12% (!) of the total views. (Damn you, Yahoo! Games)
6% of websites contain Goooooogle ads. That is a 55% reach of all advertising networks identified.

Has The Web 2.0 Evolved Yet?

Web 2.0 is hard to measure (Maybe because it doesn’t exist). But I’ve tried by location RSS feeds and stylesheets. And the results are actually quite surprising. 10% of all the homepages provide an RSS feed (If people actually use these RSS feed is of course a different analysis).

And 58% use stylesheets on their homepage for layout.So we may say that there is some evolution taking place.....I Guess.

Google's Talent May Be Headed Out The Door

2006-12-08T06:40:00.000+05:30

Google's famous for hiring the best and the brightest, but when they get bored, they're bound to create the son-of-Google, warns Fortune's Jeffrey O'Brien.

Seeing that I was unimpressed by the observation, Kraus grew more insistent. "Ten days in a new job and you don't meet anyone who's dumb? That's weird," he said.

Kraus meant it as a compliment for his new colleagues and to his new employer. Every company wants to hire the smartest people possible, and Google has clearly succeeded. But you know what you get when you get too many smart people in one room? You get the corporate equivalent of the U.S. Olympic basketball team.

And now with the up and down in the GOOG stocks, Google sure will have to ease the process of hiring cream. You cannot hire the best to hold the camera for a group photograph! And as the cream in Google keeps NO job up to there expectations they are surely gonnna create son-of-Google.

Armed with seven-figure bank accounts and professional networks of dozens of other equally brilliant and rich new friends, those frustrated Googlers are bound to set out on their own and ignite a son-of-Google wave of innovation. If a company the size of PayPal can kick off a second wave that includes LinkedIn, Slide, Yelp, YouTube, Clarium Capital, and Room 9 Entertainment, among others, the sons-of-Google wave should be a world-changer.

Spam Doubles

2006-12-06T22:47:00.000+05:30

It wasn’t supposed to turn out this way. Three years ago, Bill Gates, Microsoft’s chairman, made an audacious prediction: the problem of junk e-mail, he said, “will be solved by 2006.” And for a time, there were signs that he was going to be proved right.

Much of that flood is made up of a nettlesome new breed of junk e-mail called image spam, in which the words of the advertisement are part of a picture, often fooling traditional spam detectors that look for telltale phrases.

Spams are back. I personally saw a rise in spams in my mail box. Looks like the sites which promise to not to reveal your email to the public do it willingly. Else why would someone send me image spam informing about the latest viagra rates?

“At the beginning of the year spam was off our radar,” said Franklin Warlick, senior messaging systems administrator at Cox Communications in Atlanta.
“Now employees are stopping us in the halls to ask us if we turned off our spam filter,” Mr. Warlick said.

Linux Isn't Just For Grownups Anymore

2006-12-06T22:26:00.000+05:30

Linux is running and who could be better idea to promote it rather than the future of the planet, kids! Its free and its similar when it comes to GUI. That is what the kids look for.

In about a year, through a public school grant program, State of Indiana education officials have moved at least 22,000 students from Windows-based desktops to Linux-based desktops.

Xandros Professional 4 lists for $99, versus anticipated Windows Vista pricing of $199. But Google Docs and OpenOffice are free, Firefox just works, and with Skype for Linux and sites like Meebo.com -- which offers free, web-based instant messaging on all the big services -- communication applications are free and completely available on Linux. (I'm sure there will be a point where I just get my daughter a Skype account instead of letting her tie up the home phone line talking to her friends after school.)

Vista is gonna face bumpy roads ahead!

Another NASA Hacker Indicted

2006-12-04T07:22:00.000+05:30

It happened in 2001-02 and its happened again. Then, it was the UK hacker Gary McKinnon. He was later extradited to US.

Now its a Romanian man who was indicted Thursday for allegedly breaking into more than 150 U.S. government computers. Victor Faur, 26, lead a "White Hat Team" to hack into the computers as they are said to be the most secure around the world.

"After hacking into and taking control of the government computers, Faur allegedly caused the compromised machines to display screens that flaunted the computer intrusion," the U.S. Attorney's Office said.
Faur is charged with conspiracy and nine counts of computer intrusion. If convicted of all counts, he faces up to 54 years in federal prison, the prosecutors said.

The breached computers were used to collect and process data from spacecraft. Because of the break-ins, systems had to be rebuilt and scientists and engineers had to manually communicate with spacecraft, resulting in $1.36 million in losses for NASA and nearly $100,000 in losses for the Energy Department and the Navy, prosecutors said.

Seems like everyone has been busy hacking while I was busy blogging!

Microsoft Promises Surprises for Windows Vista Before January

2006-12-04T07:09:00.000+05:30

“Now that businesses have access to Windows Vista and 2007 Office System, we've only just begun. I've said it before and I'll say it again: when it comes to the consumer market launch of these two products, stay on your toes, as we've got some amazing things in store for you between now and the end of January,” said Nick White, a Product Manager at Microsoft working on the Windows Vista launch team.

“Time is sort of a funny thing,” stated Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. “You need to give new technologies time to incubate before you try to bring them together. Let each technology come to market individually and then do the integration.”

The wait is already been hyped a lot and now the talk of many surprises is gonna make it chillier!

Google Googled!

2006-12-03T02:06:00.000+05:30

Google Answers is one of the oldest services at Google right now, however it never really gained traction over the years. Some wonder why it wasn't successful — the answer? It was Googled.

I don't mean it was "Googled" as in "searched for", but "out-done by another company by making it better and free". Who Googled Google Answers? Yahoo! Google's service was launched in April of 2002 and had over 800 participants during its life.

On December 8th of 2005, Yahoo answered by launching their own "Yahoo Answers". They made it better and free. Does that sound familiar? The cost of Yahoo's service probably helped spur the viral effect that gave it some traction.

Just today, Google announced Google Answers will be closing by year's end. It turns out Google can be Googled.

Why feel lucky when you can be right?

Does that click in your brain? Yeah, exactly. Yahoo has directly targeted Google's I am feeling lucky search by introducing instant search. And they do have gone a step ahead of Google. Under yahoo instant search you will get the best search result as soon as you stop typing.

Then you can hit enter to proceed with your search or click the instant search. Another small trick is to hit ctrl+enter so as to be carried to your instant search without leaving the keyboard.

New IP Network Solutions from Nokia

2006-12-02T13:03:00.000+05:30

The Nokia Communication Suite provides consumers and business users with software that turns their PCs into softphones for accessing a wide range of "Rich Call" services over broadband connections - but with the added simplicity of using only one online identity and one billing account. The solution allows operators to offer seamless services across their fixed broadband and 3G mobile broadband networks, bridging these two domains.

Thanks to IP, Rich Calls can include Voice over IP (VoIP) calls, Video Sharing, video calls, instant messaging, presence, file sharing, and other multimedia services. With the Nokia Communication Suite, users can make and receive VoIP calls and other Rich Calls from their PCs using their existing mobile number. Calls to their mobile number can be answered with either their mobile or PC softphone.

The solution, which uses the Nokia Unified Core Network to process, connect and charge for the calls, will be demonstrated at Nokia World November 29 - 30 and is available for sale to operators next month.

"Nokia is embracing the vision of telecommunications that IP is making possible," says Roberto Loiola, Vice President, Marketing & Sales, Networks, Nokia. "Voice over IP is already a fact of life for many consumers around the world, giving them more opportunities to keep in touch in novel and economical ways. The use of broadband Internet access for voice communication is here to stay, and Nokia recognizes that traditional operators - both mobile and fixed - can swim in these waters as well."

As expected, Google is ready to capture everyone. Even the non Internet users, huh! After this announcement other rivals should be running there brains.

Bharti Airtel Ltd. (BRTI.BO: Quote, Profile, Research), India's top mobile services firm, said on Thursday it will offer Google Inc.'s (GOOG.O: Quote, Profile, Research) search facility for mobile phones.
Indian carriers are increasingly boosting their value-added services in a bid to offset a decline in voice tariffs due to intense competition in the world's fastest growing wireless services market.
Indian carriers added 6.7 million new users in October. At 136.22 million users, the mobile base is six times the number of people in India who have a desktop computer.

French Parliament migrates to Linux

2006-11-28T18:27:00.000+05:30

Micro$oft may not be happy at this. After major public institutions and government agencies in France already adopting Linux and Apache on the server side, the government is also giving thought to switching to Linux. This increments on the list of proofs that's GUI of Linux OS's is as good as Windows. May be MS is pouncing on many major IT companies using its fame and power but open source is a "major issue!"

The French government plans to install the Linux operating system on 1,154 desktop computer workstations in its Parliament. Citing "substantial savings despite the migration and training costs," and a desire to avoid too much dependence on a single vendor, the French National Assembly's decision is based largely on the results of a recent study conducted by tech consulting company Atos Origin.

But sometimes Linux migration isn't that easy every time...

Unfortunately, not every Linux migration has a happy ending. The Birmingham City Council in the UK recently terminated its own Linux migration program after deploying the operating system on only 200 of the 1,500 desktop computers initially planned. According to participants in the Birmingham project, the migration failed because the government didn't have enough expertise to establish an effective Linux deployment program. Calling the Birmingham migration "an unbelievable cock-up," NetProject consultant Eddie Bleasdale, who was involved with the project in its early stages, says that the Birmingham government "decided to do it all themselves, without expertise in the area."

Panasonic to Show Your Mood to Everyone

2006-11-28T18:12:00.000+05:30

Now people will be able to guess if you are talking to your girl friend or to your boss on the phone. Panasonic is planning to show your mood on the front screen of the P720iD clamshell cell phone while you do the talking. They will be doing this with some kind of color codes. Unfortunately you will not be able to see what your mobile is showing to others. Time for some to enjoy and some to "avoid Panasonic".

Considering the fact that the actual displaying of your mood is done after the phone has analyzed the tone and patterns of your voice after beginning a conversation, one is forced to draw the conclusion that he won't be able to see what the “Feel Talk” technology doing all that complex stuff has decided to tell everybody about you because the mentioned LED will be facing outward from your ear. Maybe we don't have the necessary skills to do that or they’ve already thought of this aspect and will leave the user discover what everyone else already saw after the phone call has ended.

Google Shares Set to Fall

2006-11-27T21:09:00.000+05:30

Spending on research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses are all expected to outpace revenue growth this year

Giving your hand to everything, trying to be the king, to be the champ is not always easy. The king of internet may see fall in business next year, the weekly financial newspaper Barron's reported Sunday.

Barron's said Google is overvalued because it trades at 37 times next year's expected earnings and because its growth rate is slowing. It also noted that Google now has the 15th largest market capitalization among U.S.-traded shares, and its price-to-earnings ratio is two to three times higher that of similarly sized companies.

The paper added that the price that advertisers are willing to pay for search keywords has fallen.

64 is the new 32

2006-11-27T20:47:00.000+05:30

Looking into the future, we will ship Longhorn (the next version of Windows Server) in the second half of next year, and we will ship a 32-bit and a 64-bit version. That will be the last time we ship a 32-bit version. From that point, the next release, which will be roughly two years later, that product will only be available as 64-bit.

This is what MS server honcho Bog Muglai has to say indicating the future of 32 bit technology. Servers finally looking to shift completely to 64 bit tech. How about the desktop systems?

The need isnt there for the common computer user to die for 64 bit but for junkies, we always need more, hmmm!

The real barrier to wider adoption of 64-bit technology isn't hardware or the OS. It's the lack of compelling software. On the server side, there are great reasons to move to 64-bit technology for scaling databases and handling massive numbers of transactions. But where are the equivalent challenges for desktop users? With the exception of people running workstation-class video editing systems, who needs a 64-bit system?

Email turns 35

BELIEVE it or not, the email has just turned 35.

IT programmer Ray Tomlinson sent the first message in late 1971.

"The test messages were entirely forgettable and I have, therefore, forgotten them. Most likely the first message was QWERTYUIOP or something similar," he says.

And now, 35 years on, we'd be completely lost without the joys of emailing!

Study: Oracle database software has more flaws than SQL Server

2006-11-26T23:39:00.000+05:30

Micro$oft is often unfairly slammed for security issues, says NGSS

Time to change gears for oracle. As usual the biggest threat in the IT market is striking on Oracle too. And it is not Micro$oft who is saying this but its the survey!

A comparison of vulnerabilities in Microsoft's SQL Server database and Oracle's relational database management (RDBM) products by U.K.-based Next Generation Security Software (NGSS) shows the latter's products to have far more vulnerabilities than do products from Microsoft.
Between December 2000 and November 2006, external researchers discovered 233 vulnerabilities in Oracle's products compared to 59 in Microsoft's SQL Server technology, according to NGSS. The study looked at vulnerabilities that were reported and fixed in SQL Server 7, 2000 and 2005 and Oracle's database versions 8, 9, and 10g.

NASA Will Develop a Video Game at Your Expense

2006-11-26T15:40:00.000+05:30

NASA-the guys who fly to Mars and stuff- will, apparently, develop a video game of their own. And they will do this at your expense, to be more exact, they will take money out of your taxes.

According to beyondunreal.com, NASA's Learning Technologies Office got some money to develop a NASA-based game. For the time being, they are planning to develop a prototype game, which will last about 10 to 20 minutes. They are collaborating with America's Army development team and the Federation of American Scientists and they will use Epic's Unreal 3 engine.

Trough this game’s prototype, they plan to make people more familiar with space exploration, and introduce them into NASA’s Vision for Space Exploration. NASA has big plans for the future, their goal being to go back to the moon by 2025, and to get a human on Mars by 2035.

Can a Manager Be a Techie and Survive?

BOSS! The word mostly been produced as "bad man sort of" by the media is now under test. Should a manager have technical skills? As far as I am concerned, Yes! Else it would not be the manager who would be running the organisation but the employers.

"If you don't know the difference between fiction and reality, you've got a problem. By being technically informed while managing people and projects, no one can blow smoke up my skirt. I can tell the difference between a lame excuse for a delay and a legitimate reason why something can't be done."

Mark Shuttleworth invites OpenSUSE developers to join Ubuntu

2006-11-26T12:37:00.000+05:30

Now jobs are being offered via mailing lists and that too in the "open-source" field!

Mark Shuttleworth, the wealthy patron of the Ubuntu Linux distribution, sent an e-mail to the OpenSUSE mailing list on Friday in an attempt to recruit disgruntled OpenSUSE developers and convince them to join the Ubuntu project. The OpenSUSE project is funded by Novell, a company that recently evoked the wrath of many open source software contributors by making a controversial patent indemnification agreement with Microsoft.

In his message, Shuttleworth describes Novell's recent deal with Microsoft as a "decision to go to great lengths to circumvent the patent framework clearly articulated in the GPL" and argues that "the position taken by Novell leadership in their contract with Microsoft is hugely disrespectful of the contributions of thousands of GPL programmers and contributors to SuSE." Shuttleworth then states that "Ubuntu is one option, as are Gentoo, Debian and other communities," for developers that "are looking for a new place to get involved that is not subject to the same arbitrary executive intervention." The e-mail also includes information about Ubuntu Open Week, an upcoming event intended to provide information about the Ubuntu community for new prospective members.

Holiday Shopping with Google

Google has released Google Checkout, a tool that will allow customers to buy products using this service.

“Google Checkout eliminates an average of 15 steps from the online checkout process, in many cases making checking out as simple as entering a single login. This can save a lot of time for online shoppers, who will visit an average of 5.5 websites for holiday gifts this season, according to the survey.

Domain Names In Your Local Language

2006-11-22T17:27:00.000+05:30

ICANN's (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.) roadmap for IDNs shows that a workable system should be ready by the end of 2007, with live root zone tests to be conducted in December 2006. The group has already contracted with a Swedish firm named Autonomica to do lab testing of the new system, which is currently underway. ICANN has actually been developing the IDN system for three years, leading us to believe that their timetable has a good chance of being met. If you've been holding out on that new domain registration until you could have it in Hindi, you've only got a year left to wait.

Yahoo into food business!

2006-11-22T17:17:00.000+05:30

In the wake of Google’s recent purchase of Youtube, lauded by analysts as a brilliant move in furthering Google’s control over internet media, Yahoo has come up with its own idea: Yahoo! Food. What exactly are they thinking?

Yahoo has been under a lot of pressure from investors as its share of the search market slips more and more each quarter, contributing to a plummeting stock price that is already down 34% this year. How a food site will compensate for Yahoo’s deficit in its core function – search – is a mystery.

“People go to Yahoo for four things: search, news, e-mail, and finance” says search engine analyst Evan Bailyn. “Cooking recipes aren’t one of those things. And even if Yahoo has somehow hit upon something big with this food site, you know Google will just come out with a better version in six months."

Microsoft Testing a New Home Page

Microsoft is testing a new homepage and - much to my surprise - it integrates seamlessly with Firefox 2.0. I must confess that I wasn't expecting it. But enough with this. The new homepage has Windows design nuances. In this regard, Microsoft has introduced design changes over a variety of products to synchronize with the visual perspective of its latest OS.

Yahoo's Future

2006-11-21T19:07:00.000+05:30

“Yahoo touches one out of every two people on the Internet every month, which is unparalleled reach. Despite the fact that Yahoo actually has more traffic than Google, Google has more revenue. So there definitely is a problem with Yahoo’s monetization."

“The main problem is that Yahoo has not been nearly as good as Google at reaping profits from the huge volume of search traffic it attracts. Yahoo’s search revenue in the third quarter was $191 million, versus $911 million for Google. The industry’s growth rate is catching up with Yahoo’s in this area. When someone’s growth rate is declining, it’s hard to know where the bottom is. Still, Wall Street’s worries about this seem overdone, creating a buying opportunity at the beginning of a traditionally strong holiday period for the Internet” Justin Post, a Merrill Lynch analyst in San Francisco, said.

Mr. Gates as New US President!

2006-11-20T20:41:00.000+05:30

"Famous atheist Richard Dawkins’ book The God Delusion is #5 on Amazon.com. Sam Harris is right up there with his books The End of Faith and Letters to a Christian Nation. They aren’t selling in numbers anywhere approaching the top religious books, but they are best sellers. When was the last time two books promoting atheism were best sellers at about the same time?"

"Ask a deeply religious Christian if he’d rather live next to a bearded Muslim that may or may not be plotting a terror attack, or an atheist that may or may not show him how to set up a wireless network in his house.I think that in an election cycle or two you will see an atheist business leader emerge as a legitimate candidate for president. And his name will be Bill Gates."

Is Zune Ugly?

This is what CNN anchors are describing zune like. It isnt anywhere near iPod!

"The ugly and clashing colors of the Zune might be something that Microsoft can easily change, but the thickness of the Zune is a killer for this class of devices. Microsoft isn't alone in this sin, just about every single iPod competitor on the market make the same mistakes over and over again. When will Apple's competitors get a clue that you cannot beat the iPod unless the device looks like a nice fashion accessory?"

Huh, Use Google to Talk Over Your Phone!

2006-11-19T19:45:00.000+05:30

Now there, these guys have gone mad. Can you believe it? They will let you talk to businesses you find on Google search results pages. When this feature is available for a business, you'll see a green phone icon in their advertisement or a call link next to their contact information.

Here's how it works: Click the phone icon or call link, and you'll be invited to enter your own phone number into a special field. When you do so and then click Connect for free, Google will call your number almost immediately. Pick up, and you'll hear ringing on the other end as Google connects you to the business you selected. When they answer, you simply talk normally as you would with any other call. And all this for free!

Microsoft a New "Adversary" for Symantec

2006-11-19T10:05:00.000+05:30

Symantec, a US$5 billion company and the fourth largest software company in the world, is aiming high. It wants to be a US$10 billion by 2010.

But looks like the new rivals Microsoft is all set to bring it down from being a US$5 Billion company. Thompson, Symantec CEO, knows that if Microsoft is successful in leveraging Vista to cut Symantec out of the Windows security market, then Symantec can forget about being a US$10 billion company. It will have trouble staying a US$5 billion company.

Earth is flattening. Another feather to Google Earth's Cap. Farmers hardly 140 Km from Mumbai (India) used Google Earth to prove to the authorities that there land wasn't infertile and demanded proper compensations in return to government taking there land for Special Economic Zone (SEZ).

Now, the government will think twice before acting smart against the poor (intelligent) farmers.

Banglore to Bengalooru - huh!

Where will Mr. Gates be going now? Bangalore is finally been deleted from official Indian map. The image shown on the right is taken from wikipedia and that too shows the new name Bengalooru (this is the correct spelling. Not Bengaluru).

But see this, while I write this post even the spell check here is asking me to change the name Bengalooru to Bangalore as it this poor guys is not being run by the sweet Indian politicians!

Strange things are happening to our cities in the last two decades. Our cities are booming. Making a great leap towards a 'great ' future. Or at least our media reports say so.

Ironically our cities are going back to their original ' Indian ' or ' local 'names from their ' Anglicized ' names. Bombay said good-bye to its stylish name and went back to its local name Mumbai, more than a decade back. Calcutta became Kolkata and Madras became Chennai.

A great sense of fulfillment and satisfaction for the pro- Kannada organizations and personalities, who fought for it. Is it going to serve any other purpose? Certainly not.

Its good to love your culture but not to "please" mix that with politics too.

Use Bandwidth Monitors and Overcome the Extra Billing woos

2006-11-11T16:27:00.004+05:30

Not everyone is lucky enough to have an internet connection with unlimited bandwidth.

If your internet plan has restricted bandwidth limit per month and the ISP is charging you per MB of data exchanged after a certain threshold is exceeded, you should install a bandwidth monitoring software that will track your internet usage behind the scenes and inform you before you hit that monthly data download/upload limit.

Not just internet usage, these programs assist you diagnose slow internet connections and whether the ISP is giving your the promised speed or not. You also get an idea about what processes or software are currently downloading or uploading data to the internet.One of the favorite bandwidth monitor software is Net Meter - it's absolutely free, requires no configuration and it's features match that of pro software like DUMeter or Bandwidth Monitor pro.

The data is displayed inside graphs and you get an accurate idea about the true data upload speed, download speed and since how long have you been online.

Net Meter has live reports about data transferred in a day, week or the whole month. This can also be exported in text file so that you can tally the report from your ISP.

If you are on dial-up connection, RAS Monitor - a standalone program [no installation] that you can add to your Windows startup folder, is recommended. It will reside in the Windows System tray and as soon as you switch on the modem or plug in the cable connection, RAS will begin tracking your data transfer usage.

So you can finally stop worrying about exceeding your monthly internet bandwidth or those unexpected and shocking internet usage bills that sometimes made no sense to you.

Yahoo's Instant Messaging to merge with its mail box.

During 90's yahoo was the leader in IMs. But these days the IM industry has seen a drift into others like Google. Yahoo's melding of e-mail and instant messaging follows the lead of rival Google Inc, which merged its Google Talk instant-message chat service with its Gmail e-mail program. But Yahoo's audience is roughly 10 times larger than Google's base of e-mail users, according to industry data.

Yahoo Mail, which counts 250 million active monthly users, plans in coming months to incorporate the Yahoo Messenger instant-messaging program inside the e-mail service, Yahoo executive Brad Garlinghouse said.

There are some questions that can't be answered by Google. - City TV spotted this unique Claude Presbyterian Church billboard in Orangeville.

My two cents here - When you can't find something on Google, modify your search queries and if that doesn't work, there's also a website Can't find on Google by Wayne Radinsky where you can post your search queries that did not show satisfactory results in Google Search. Other readers on this site will help you find what you are looking for.

This is a very good move for orkut, I’ve yet to give it a try but from what I heard is that Orkut in Brazil means “a place where people meet and have sex.” Maybe that is why Orkut is so popular in Brazil and failed miserably else where.

The company says its Google Talk and Orkut development teams are busy putting the finishing touches on the integration. The announcement will likely be made sometime next week. […]
“We noticed that a lot of people that were using Orkut also had their GTalk client open at the same time,” says Google spokeswoman Courtney Hohne.

The Conscience of a Hacker

2006-10-08T06:29:00.000+05:30

Another one got caught today, it's all over the papers. "Teenager Arrested in Computer Crime Scandal", "Hacker Arrested after Bank Tampering"...Damn kids. They're all alike.

But did you, in your three-piece psychology and 1950's technobrain,ever take a look behind the eyes of the hacker? Did you ever wonder what made him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have molded him?I am a hacker, enter my world...Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most of the other kids, this crap they teach us bores me... Damn underachiever. They're all alike.I'm in junior high or high school. I've listened to teachers explain for the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction. I understand it. "No, Ms.Smith, I didn't show my work. I did it in my head..." Damn kid. Probably copied it. They're all alike.

I made a discovery today. I found a computer. Wait a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to. If it makes a mistake, it's because I screwed it up. Not because it doesn't like me... Or feels threatened by me...Or thinks I'm a smart ass...Or doesn't like teaching and shouldn't be here...Damn kid. All he does is play games. They're all alike.

And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a board is found.

"This is it... this is where I belong..."I know everyone here... even if I've never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again... I know you all...Damn kid. Tying up the phone line again. They're all alike...

You bet your ass we're all alike... we've been spoon-fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak... the bits of meat that you did let slip through were pre-chewed and tasteless. We've been dominated by sadists, or ignored by the apathetic. The few that had something to teach found us willing pupils, but those few are like drops of water in the desert.This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons, and you call us criminals. We explore... and you call us criminals. We seek after knowledge... and you call us criminals. We exist without skin color,without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals.You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.

Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this individual,but you can't stop us all... after all, we're all alike.
