Hi Friends
Sorry buddies for not blogging all these days because of my some personal commitment . I have promised myself to make a todo list everyday and with all priorities perfectly planned . And it sucks but i am not even able to complete the 4th thing on my to-do list , blogging is usually on 7th . If any avid blogger is reading this , please give me some tips on time-management , i really need them .

Tv18Group has once again launched a new site after the success of indiwo.com and others . This time they have launched a site for booking movie tickets . So , you don't need to look for movie hall's no. in newspaper for getting your seats booked . I really liked the UI of this site . And the process is also quite simple . Just go to that site . Choose City , Movie , Show timings , No. of Tickets and at last even choose the seats you want . And then just quickly go to check out to pay with your credit card . You will get your confirmation on your email and on your mobile too .

The only thing that i am disliking is the additional 15 Rs per ticket as delivery charges of your tickets . Anyways , i will still go for it if any movie is worth of that .

Hi
I was trying to see how Gmail and other application's mobile version looks . As i have a very expensive GPRS so i didnt wanted to access those sites using it . So while searching for its solution , i came across this . This wonderful plugin allows you to access mobile sites easily in Firefox itself . So you dont need to install any extra bit of software or some WML Browser .

Go ahead give it a try Firefox Plugin

--------------------------------------------


Some of the sites that you will like to visit are (on your phone ) :

  • TagTag.Com
  • http://mail2web.com/wap/
  • mobile.google.com for gmail, picasa web , google calender , google news , etc.
  • m.yahoo.com for Yahoo One Search , news , mail , messanger . local , etc.
I am using my AirTel Live for accessing Yahoo Mail Rs.30 per month . I can also visit other sites but then they cost 15 paise (1Rs=100paise) per 10 kb which is quite expensive . And even then i can't acces Gmail , Airtel people have blocked that site . Tell me if it can be used to file case on them under consumer court . X-(

Hi Friends

Gmail people once again as part of their reach-people strategy has started some activity which is both unique and creative . They are making a Gmail video in which a journey of a gmail mail is shown . This video will be displayed on Gmail Homepage . The good thing is that , they are also inviting us all to be a part of this video .

Feeling down today , cant write more

I am sure many of you have already this site but if haven't , you should see this . The idea was very simple but unique . this person just bought a domain and a small hosting space and invited advertisers to advertise on his homepage . but here the twist comes , he sold the ad space per unit pixel . And a 1$ for each pixel . Now he has million dollar pixels on his page and each and every pixel has already been sold out . So , he has become a millionaire by just a single page . I don't know what you should say to this luck or a really smart idea .

Why do we blog? To express ourselves, share our knowledge. But what if we even earn money by this . Isn’t this just cool. I am a member of payperpost for last few months and I have earned quite a lot, although not as much as other avid bloggers . This is a first time that I have earned something. I was so happy when I received my first payment in my PayPal account . I spent those paypal money on online shopping on eBay . The best thing about payperpost is that you will surely get money . The surety of return-on-work is there . And you can easily earn from 5$ to as high as 125$ on just posting a single post . You can also join their affiliates programs . Now , I am planning to post atleast one post per week . Just aiming to earn my iPod . By the way , my sincere advice to fellow bloggers , never write a blog just to earn money , this thing is a additional profit other than the love of your regular readers . Just log on and see what more option you have . Happy blogging and happy earning .

Hi Friends

Very recently , One of my uncle lost over Rs.5,000 in a internet fraud , it's really sad that people ignore even small small precautions while dealing with money on net . Buying,selling and even banking is extremely safe on internet unless and untill you keep few tips in mind . So , i am now sharing few quick tips on safe internet banking or buying or any kind of money exchange Plus few general tips to save yourself from internet credit card thieves .

  1. Never ever use your credit card in public cyber cafes .
  2. Don't share your credit card number with one .
  3. Whenever you buy anything from anywhere with your credit card please let the credit card processing happen in front of your eyes only . The person may note your credit card no. and use it for internet shopping .
  4. Avoid using your credit card on not-so-popular sites .
  5. Whenever you decide to use credit card on site , just check if there is any 'Lock' symbol on your address bar of your browser or at bottom-right corner .
  6. Never click on any link in mails that clams to be are from ebay,paypal or some bank . If the mail asks to for some clarification . Go to your account on that site but by typing that site's web address yourself , not by clicking on the link given in the mail .
  7. Please always bear in mind that any legal banking site never asks your personal information on email .
  8. Be careful from mails that says that they need some help from you to encash some family's property and they will share its part with you , on your financial help . They are 99.99% fake mails . But yeah , you can always talk to them if you want to have some fun . Once i carried on similar mail exchange with an nigerian girl for more than a month . I wish i would have saved that mails , it would have been excellent post for blog .
  9. And avoid using paying in advance to unknown shops unless there is some guarntee .

Is Orkut banned in your college . Or you are missing MySpace in your office . Or you are feeling frustrated when your country bans blogger in your country . Here is orkutproxy for you . This is one of the best sites that i have come across for accessing the sites are banned/blocked from your ISP . I haven't tested if it works everywhere and on everysite . But surely works on many .

Go ahead , give it a try orkutproxy
