Design Makeover in the Offing?

Off-late, i have been in the process of thinking ... Thinking hard indeed. And this thoughtful bug is not related to how to cripple my boss for work :) but i have been pondering over the thoughts of giving this Blog an Image Makeover.

These days i am working hard to strategize the new Design of my blog, and if everything goes well as per the plan, i will be Launching the new Design next year, by the Month of February.
Whatever i does to my blog, gives me immense satisfaction, and i hope, this time as well .. i will groom the blog to perfection.

Do keep your eye-lids open, something more attractive and creamy coming through.

The pay per host innovative idea !! - Post and Earn!

The beautiful and innovative service has been in operation on my blog. Now i can say with reasonable boastness ....

How will a pulp result?

Yeah! This was the text that was sent to me for activation. So i am just beginning to get the hold of Advertisement and sponsors coming and hitting the deck on my blog. Let me see how much can i earn out of this stuff

PAA - A Unique Story ..

Amitabh plays a role in which he has a medical condition called Progeria, a rare genetic condition resulting in early aging. In this movie Bachan plays Auro a 13 year old looking like a 25 years younger because of his medical condition in the movie.

Paa features Abhishek, Vidya Balan along with Big B. Here Abhishek plays the role of DAD to Amitabh bacchan.

This movie might be an introduction of some innovative thinking in the bollywood which has now been in the saturation stage of Mushy Romance and Lovely songs.

It's been said that AB has put in 8 hours of Strenous efforts to look like a Child. Well done AB!! Abhishek must learn something from his PAA :)

Google Dashboard - Google knows Everything about you !

I found the following article at ZDNET which explains about the Google's Privacy Dashboard. This article covers about the main features which enables the users to see all their Google information including chatting, search preferences and surfing routine using this application.


The more Google products you use, the more data it collects about everything you do online—your search history, your emails, the blogs and news sites you read, which videos you watch on YouTube, your news alerts, tasks ,and even shopping lists. For some of these, you need to explicitly grant Google permission to keep track of data associated with your profile. But it’s hard to keep up with everything Google is tracking. So now the company is launching a Google Dashboard, which will give you a high-level summary of everything Google knows about you by virtue of the Google products you use. This might include how many emails are in your inbox, recent subject lines, which YouTube video you’ve watched lately (yes, all of them), appointments on your calendar, and more.
If you want more detailed data, it sends you to the particular data repository for that product. And for security purposes it does not create a second database of all the data, it just brings it up in your browser without restoring it server-side.

The Dashboard is only for Google products which require you to sign in with your Google account. It does not include cookie-based data Google collects through DoubleClick ads or other ads.

Windows 7 - The Re-Emergence from the Bewilderness

By the End of the October 2009, Microsoft has launched the most awaited version of Windows - Windows 7. And this time, the wait was from the Other side, it was not the consumers (who were particularly still busy in trying establishing the Nuts and Bolts of Windows Vista - The Earlier version of Windows. So it was ideally the Developers and Microsoft Inc. which was eager to launch the new version on Board.

Around 22nd October 2009, Microsoft launched the Polished and Eloquent version of their Windows with usual Fanfare and glitters. Hoarding, leaflets and heavy promotion everywhere. Now, i am in the quest to try the so Called rescuer of pain and Re-Structuring of the ease, may the best of time comes when the world will get used to the next Revolution in Windows Operating System. The Convergence is still ON !

Mission 100

When you claim yourself to be "A Writer" before this innocent world, and you boast like anything, there should be a decent figure of number of blog posts that must accompany you along to support your funny claims.

Recently, i was amazed to know that it was only 40+ blog postings i did till date during this year. That is very low considering the way i promote the purpose of writing and inside-out feelings that i spread like bird's wings. The blog has surely added contentment and a purpose of my writing. It added the creativity in the way i express and keep my point, but still boasting on such a "44" count does not necessarily serve the viewing pleasure of any of the reader.

I have thus, planned to make the count to 100 by the time this year Finishes! I wish to conver everything i had left in the haze of my marriage and the life after that. Though, no plans of past posting as i do not find it very fair.

So , lets calculate this post as a Pledge, a Swear, a Determination ... And bring it to 100

Enroute to Great Personality

MindTools - Website Review

Just while seeking to implant good communication skills and proactive writing habbits(more so on this blog), i stumbled upon a great site. This site has lots of articles related to various tips and tricks related to building a better personality.

I was impressed with the look and feel and the simplicity with which the various articles are categorized into the easily navigable sections that provides the lucid browsing experience.

Just to get a taste of strengh of the article's inevitable vocabulary, i just jumped into one of the Reasonably Titled article "Making a Great First Impression". The article first was initiated with the brief overview and then moved to explain each imperative topic in graceful point by point manner.

The reader thus does not feel the burden of being imparted the complete theseis and theory. One can understand by just reading the outline and may follow the article in depth if liked by him.

In all, i would definitely recommend the reading freaks like me to "have a Go" at least once on this Site..

Happy Browsing ...

Dusherra .. End of An Evil Spirit or Just Another Great Holiday

The festival of Vijay Ashtami or as popularly known as Dussherra brought the joy, happiness and Holiday to all. Those who understands the meaning of observing this festival really knows the imperativeness of celebrating but for others, its just a Holiday to pass the time.

This Dussherra sadly, i did the same. I just passed the time watching here and there . From one nook of our lane to another corner of it for various effigies.

I felt lucky enough to know that we belong to few colonies wherein the celebration of dusherra was so extravagant that people from extreme south and north end of the city ventured here to have a glimpse of the brightness of the occassion.

Partying the Nuts off !

Last week, after a long long and longer time, we celebrated the party. After so much head mugging with all the participants, we finally drove into finalizing the date and venue of the party.

The get together(what we officially have English synonym for "Daaru party") was arranged in cool ambience of Rooftop at Gravity Restaurant, Noida . The beautiful ambience of chairs and tables lined up in perfect arrangement mused everyone to drink and drab harder. But let me first clarify, before my wife get a chance to read and misunderstood my swere of not drinking "Alcohol" -- I only drank "Mocktail" Zapatta [See, i remember the Name as well !].


The chicken platters, wings, and what not came in abundance and we had thoroughly stuffed ourselves for the next day as well ... (at least for the next Morning at least ;-)


We started back for our homes early but it was a day of abundance of joy and niceties. Will definitely be looking ahead for more such parties.

BlueLemonHost - The Cheap and Best Service Provider

I found a few great web hosts, which are really cheap yet reliable for Professional Website Hosting. So thought to put a review about them here.
Bluelemonhost

Its one of the cheapest host i had seen on web, that too with cPanel and 99.9% uptime!
I had used it personally & its really good.







Good things about it:
- Too cheap …basic plan costs $11/yr only.
- cPanel based panel….thus really cool to manage things.
- Great link speeds….as per my tests – uplink – 3.5MBps and downlink – 2.8MBps (though appears to be little slow…but believe me its far better then expensive Dreamhost!)
- Good support….always responses with “done/solved/ok”
- Daily free backups with free restoration (nice!)
- No irritating limits on number of sub domains, sql databases & users, ftp users and even mailing lists.


Bad things about it:

- No ssh shell access (but i do accept its useless to give that in plan like $11 an year due to security reasons).
- No wget allowed (even via cron jobs) though good way out is just using ftp commands in shell but again that’s not for home users.
- Irritating limit- in $11 plan you can host only 1 addon domain & parked domain.
- No great cPanels addons like website builder or templates. (though you won’t need those ever!)

I recommend it using just for personal blogs and small professional sites because of its cost, features it just provides really solid hosting for personal blogs but because of limitations i won’t recommend it for an advanced user.

Re-Revival...

So, once again.. The person, who claims before a bunch of group .. that he is a writer, Writes the immaculate blogs .. and that too boastfully .. is mercifully ... writing the first blog entry after 1 month!!

And to add to the injury... he is making hat-trick in Apologizing to the blog.. that he has really been off the touch for such a long time.

So this time, i will just silence myself by adding not much to my Self-Submission. Rather lets start with what is happening in and around me.

There are lots of things that happened in the globe around me...
- Janamashtmi (The birth of Krishna)
- Jaswant Singh (His book about jinnah)
- Chetan Bhagat (My Head-On with him at book fair on 5th September 09)
- Independence Day (This was india's so definitely i would have liked to write a post about it)
- Modular kitchen construction (Still on going on the day of writing this post)

.. and still ... i could not catch up with them ... Feeling sorry .. but let bygones be bygones ..

It will now be the start of another swere-in ceremony to post regularly! Hit it ...

Rakshabandhan - The day in momentum ...

So, here is the day ... Jumped again from the wilderness of the complete year that went by. As they say, its the day which belongs to "sisters" - in particular, specially when she is the one who is to earn thousands from their bro's happy pocket and in addition to that the "by default" protection and caring from their brothers!

No matter what it may cost, the good feelings attached to this festive is just unique and Amazingly our very own ... Indian!!

Right since morning, we are preparing for the day, which will have us meeting cousins, having sweets(and much much more of them, even if your Digestion system does not give you Green Signal for that!), and loads of eventual fun and photography.

I am looking forward for the day ... Just praying to the God that Ladies in My House (i.e my Mom, Sis and Wife) get into their respective Uniform really fast!
