The Most Important Rule In Any Business
2007-08-09 21:47:00 Last night, I eagerly started reading The Law Of Success by Napoleon I Hill. I was still in the first few pages when I came across something really striking?"It is the personalities back of a concern which find the measurement of success the concern will enjoy. Modify those personalities so they are more than than pleasing and more attractive to the frequenters of the concern and the concern will thrive." - Napoleon I Hill.Hill also adverts somewhere else that people don't like doing concern with corps or establishments - they desire to make concern with people. And what is more, they desire to make concern with people whom they like. In other words, people with pleasing personalities.It's not really rocket scientific discipline now is it?But just travel and have got a expression at the bulk of ads out there. Most companies desire to force their corporate mental image at all costs.And for what?It only turns people off in the end. You're much better off taking a personal app...

Great Firewall of China
2007-03-10 05:33:00 I read about the Great Fire wall of China from Nitesh Gautam's Blog. The Chinese govt has been censoring lot of websites based on their content. The greatfirewallofchina.org says;The Chinese government has a tradition of keeping its watchful eye on all media. Since the rapid growth of the World Wide Web in the 1990s they have constantly invented new ways of censorship to control the world’s most democratic medium, the Internet, as well.

Is owning a domain necessary for successful blogging?
2007-03-08 09:42:00 Of late I have been reading lot of blogs and almost 70% of them are hosted on paid domains, be it personal, technical or business blogs and only 30% of them are using the free blogging platforms like Blog ger (the one I'm using), typepad etc. So does it mean that having a paid domain is needed for a successful blog?Here are some of the quotes about having a paid domain for blogging.Jakob Nielsen, in his post Weblog Usability: The Top Ten Design Mistakes states thatHaving a weblog address ending in blogspot.com, typepad.com, etc. will soon be the equivalent of having an @aol.com email address or a Geocities website: the mark of a naïve beginner who shouldn't be taken too seriously.American Blogoshere says,If you have a highly successful blog on blogspot you are building up an asset for Google and not just yourself.

Firefox frustrating me!
2007-03-07 12:22:00 I have been using Fire fox for long time now and recently I updated to the latest version 2.0. After the update there seems to be a unique problem. Sometimes it happens that while surfing using Firefox, it stops connecting to internet and does not display any page. I tried refreshing the pages, but still it does not connect. The only solution is to close the Firefox session and then restart it again. First I had the impression that it may be because of the internet connection I'm using. But when the problem came up frequently, I tried connecting the same websites using Internet Explorer. IE was able to display the sites when Firefox failed to do so. This happens mostly when the number of tabs in a particular window increases. I'm not sure if the update has caused any problem to the browser (initially I was using 1.5), but the problem came up after the update. Is is the problem of Firefox? Suggestions and solutions welcome.To add to this problem, whenever I open a tab and enter an u... More About: Trat , Stra , Rust
Blogger vs Wordpress
2007-03-06 05:10:00 It has been 1.5 years since I started using Blog ger as my blogging platform and I should say I'm pretty happy with their service. Recently I read lot of articles pointing out the disadvantages of using Blogger when compared to Word press . To investigate how better is Wordpress compared to Blogger, I decided to get a Wordpress blog for me. My new Wordpress blog is nirmaltv.wordpress.com. Since the Blogger service is completely free, I'm just comparing the free service offered by Wordpress with Blogger.Firstly, one good thing I found for Wordpress blogs is that new pages can be added to the blog, but this feature is not available in Blogger. This is a feature I really wanted in Blogger, may be they will implement in future.Secondly for creating a new post, I think Blogger is better than Wordpress because they offer lot more options on font, size and colors. Although color and font options are available in Wordpress, one has to code this manually in code section.Another important thi... More About: Press
My blog went down !
2007-03-05 05:20:00 Today morning when I checked my blog it was not loading properly, only the first panel was loading till the site visitors. The postings were not at all visible. I tried to refresh my blog several times and nothing changed. It was difficult to check what was wrong with the template just by looking at the code, so I decided to use my old template and check it. Again it was loading till the site visitors details. There was some problem with the site visitor counter which was provided by GoStats. So I got the code again from their site, but the error was still there. So finally I decided to remove the site counter and replace it with another one from Hit-Counter. Finally my blog is up and running. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. More About: Blog , Down , Went , Fakta , Doof
Yet another weekend !
2007-03-04 07:47:00 Yet another weekend is passing by and time is nearing for the big occasion....This weekend was pretty similar like any other weekend, watching movies, roaming, some small shoppings etc. This weekend I went for 2 movies. One was the latest movie from Ram Gopal Verma-Nishabd. This is said to be inspired from Hollywood film Lolita. The movie is a short one and seems to be lacking the punch. The first half is pretty dragging and second half is the place where actually the film talks about all relationships. (Rating: 2/5)The second movie which I saw was Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd. Its a fun filled movie telling the story of six couples on a honeymoon vacation. Though there is not much in the story, the way it is presented to the audience makes it watchable. (Rating: 3/5)Next weekend I'll be going to Kochi with lots of work to complete before the big occasion... :-) More About: Other , Weekend , Week , Another

Staying Alive In a Software Job
2007-03-02 06:32:00 Recently I came across this interesting article written by Harshad Oak. He writes about the state of software industry in India and how to survive in this cramped work culture. The solutions which he suggest also seems very much realistic in nature. Here is the article: Before I started working for myself, I spent some years in some of the top IT companies in India and still have many friends working in various software companies. I wrote a blog recruiting like crazy, about the same time last year about how Indian companies are recruiting like there's no tomorrow and the possible consequences. However I was avoiding writing this particular piece as it seems like an unpatriotic thing to do, to tell the world how bad the working conditions in software companies in India have become. And there's always the risk of excerpts being used out of context to bash up IT in India .

A Trip to Malabar
2007-02-26 07:34:00 It has been quite a long time since I visited Mala bar. For those who have not heard about the word Malabar , its the northern part of Kerala (India). The Northern stretch of Kerala as a whole is said as the Malabar Region. Malabar is also my home town, where my grandmother stays. I decided to give her a visit last week. So Saturday early morning I reached Mangalore Railway station and boarded the Mangalore-Chennai Egmore Express. The train started by 6.40 am, late by 10 minutes. I took a single seat as i knew there would be heavy rush once it reaches Kerala, so I would be on the safe side taking the single seat. It has been a long time since I traveled by train during day time. Generally I take the train when I go to Kochi and that would be by the night train. Traveling through Malabar region during the day time was a great experience with the lot of beaches and rivers on the way.Few snaps of MalabarI took few snaps of the greenery and rivers along this coastal area.

Promoting Vista
2007-02-17 14:14:00 The new Windows Vista Campaign and promotions seems to be picking up fast. Yesterday I went to Cafe Coffee day outlet and I was surprised to see Vista posters and cards everywhere in the restaurant. Bigger surprise came when the waiter handed the menu card to me, another Vista card. The menu was in the form of the windows logo and had lot of promotions for Vista and titled-"Windows Vista, the WOW starts now" CCD's New Menu CardEven after opening the card there were logos everywhere inside it. There's a new item in the menu called Windows Vista WOWffee priced @ 40/-. But what is the connection between these two? Microsoft seems to be so desperate to sell Vistas, but lets wait and see how popular Vista is going to be. With the Vista launched last month, we can expect more of such promotions and campaigns in the coming months.Technorati tags: Microsoft, Vista, CafeCoffeeDay More About: Promoting , Prom , Promo , Romo
