BSNL Speed Increase

This is a real treat for all download freaks (also for lunatics like me). Am in BSNL UL 750 plan. The max speed is 256 kbps (32 kBps). Recently am hitting 50+ kBps speed while downloading. As i was using a download accelerator, i thought its quite natural. But , i was wrong. It got reflected in my torrent download as well (while download ubuntu). Made a quick Google about this and surprised to see people already got in to this thing in forums. Many people , who are in UL 900 plan say they get a speed around 200-200 kBps. Positively, these speeds are not oscillating widely. Between 47-53 kBps which is far ahead of 32 kBps.If this is not by mistake, then its going to be a real fun for all internet users and going to be a real challenge for all BSNL users.

Yahoo top contributor

This is really glad. This week, i was awarded the Top Contributor status in Yahoo answers. I expected this some time later but it has come very soon. Getting best answers is like a piece of cake if you follow right procedure. I already made a clear cut idea about making best answers in Yahoo Answers . I think that would suffice. I have some more tricks but i would reveal it later. The other way that i found will really make you to get best answers effectively. But still , am not refraining from the path "Quality of Answers". It is always important. There are people who report abuse for no reasons and am sure they have multiple accounts (like us ...:p). So keep going. Get on top of yahoo answers.

Yahoo sends Gmail to Spam folder

Shocker again.!!! I forgot one of my yahoo email ids. I managed to just recollect the username, but i was not much sure with the extension whether it is yahoo.com or yahoo.co.in. So i logged in to my G account and sent a mail to both the domains. Gmail showed mailer demon for one of the domain extensions. i.e co.in. So , the email id must be a .com. I logged into my Yahoo account just check the mail which is sent from Gmail (ofcourse there is no big reason). I did not find any mails from my gmail id.As usual , my spam folder was flooded with 600+ emails. Why should i have a glance at the SPAM folder before deleting it, I thought. So clicked the SPAM link. OMG!!!! The mail is in Spam folder. Am very sure that, these two email Ids never talked to each other and i never marked SPAM for that ID. What actually Happened?

Blogger custom search gadget

My first version of blogger custom search engine. I used simple HTML and javascript. As this is the first version, i did not use any complex scripting. Elevator: Go to blogger.com Layout -> Add a gadget Select HTML/Javascript Paste the code and save it. Code: <html> <head> <script language="javascript"> function synd(){ var URL = "http://www.google.co.in/search?q="+document.getElementById("syndrome_search_text").value; window.open(URL); } </script> </head> <body> <input type = "text" id="syndrome_search_text"> <input type = "button" id="syndrome_search_button" onclick='synd()' value="Search"> </body> </html> &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Infected with Harish Syndrome

How to get best answers easily in yahoo answers

Quick way to get Best Answers: Watching your Answers: Before reading this, please understand. Am not going to tell any shortcut or a illegitimate way to get best answers soon. Am just underlining the important fact that everyone has a big probability to forget. Am talking out voting.Yahoo answers has a funny visible black hole. Its nothing but, you can vote for your own answers.Statistics says, most of the best answers are selected by voting. As the asker spends less time selecting the best answer. So if you answer a question in yahoo answer, be sure to watch the question frequently. Many answers win best answer award with just one vote.But the single vote worth ten points. Its not only important to answer a question sincerely. If your answer deserves best answer award you will get it. If not, its not a sin to push it. Question Selection: Question selection is an important thing. There are two ways of using Yahoo answers. 1. Driving traffic to your website 2. Increase Yahoo answers poi...

Promote your website with your email ID

Am going to tell you a new way of promoting your website through your email ID. I dont know how many of you noticed this in gmail. Gmail is always ambiguous. In the beginning , Yahoo does not support dot in the username. Only gmail allowed users to create email ids with a dot in it like firstname.secondname@gmail.com . Now you can create such ids in yahoo , as they now support dots.But they are too late. GMAIL has gone a little deeper. Now you can create a gmail ID with more than one dots. This is normal for some people. But think if you have a website running, you can create an gmail ID with the same name as your website like This acts as an advertisement. If you use this id in your transaction, atleast one among the ten will check your website driving you some traffic. How is it?? Infected with Harish Syndrome

Yahoo Answers bypass Internet Explorer multiple session mode

This is a typical feature of Internet explorer 8 to have multiple sessions. If you have multiple accounts in a same sites, like gmail., you cannot log in to all the accounts at once in browsers like Firefox.When you sign in to one of your accounts, even if you open same website in new window, you will be signed in automatically. But in Internet explorer, there is an option called New Session You can see the option under File -> New-> New Session. When you use that option , you can open multiple sessions i.e You can open gmail in multiple windows and you can sign in to them separately such that none of the sessions talk to each other.This is really helpful for people who could not manage their work in a single session.This works for almost all websites. But now i tried Yahoo answers . I opened IE8 and signed in to my yahoo account.Then i opened a new session, shocking!!!!. I was signed in already. I tried many times but failed. I logged out in one window which in turn made me to ...

Internet Explorer - No Cut Copy Paste for Blogger

This is weird , really weird. I encountered this while i was trying to create an article for this site. The problem is, i was not able to figure out the basic editor options cut , copy and paste operation in the right click context menu. Sometimes , due to human error, the mouse's impression will be in some other area, so right click opens the option for that area. Initially, i thought that , i did that mistake. So , i clicked the blogger editor once again and made a right click. The menu was like this There is no Copy, Cut and Paste options.Worst case, even the shortcuts did not work. Spent some time(wasted) on it to figure out and finally located the options in the browser menu bar under Edit option. What made them to skip those options under right click context menu. Weird!!!!!

What happened to swarme.the?

A long time question. What happened to swarmethe.I remember the last time , the site was up. It was around 4 years before. I found the site was pretty innovative and the concept was very new. The site tells about what the world is doing now online. I lost the screen shot of the home page. The home will have a thumbnails in a cloudy fashion, which direct to the respective websites. I dont know about the correctness of the site. I usually dont see google, youtube and other famous sites over there. But still it was interesting to see , vareity of sites working around. Ofcourse, many p*rn sites are listed as they receive the highest traffic in the internet world. They must have used some kind of algorithm, at the same time they must have indexed millions of sites. They were indirectly driving traffic to all website. I did not notice , whether they had an option of recommending a website. But for more than 3 years, the site's home page says SWARM is going offline for a bit until hosting...

Joomla ,a component management system . Web design has been made easy with these Component Management Systems abbreviated as CMS. The challenging part in web designing is not just the user interface , but other back end dealings like communication with the server, interaction with the data source and many more.

Windows Live Bug - Very Funny

I never used my windows live id for communication, as i feel comfortable with my gmail Id. After a long time, i was forced to use my windows live id, for accessing msdn forums. I tried signing up with my usual name harishsyndrome. I got an error, stating "Id Already Exists". Am sure no one uses the nick name harishsyndrome.So i tried recovering the password for harishsyndrome@live.com. I clicked recover password. The screen was as shown below Windows Live asks me to select an email id to which it would send the reset instruction. They are 1. harishsyndrome@live.com 2. Alternate email - I provided. The first option was shocking but funny at the same time. They are sending the password reset instructions to the email, for which i lost the password. How i can i open the email Id.

How to get rid of phishing sites

Some one is trying to play with me. Am not the one whom they are looking for. Recently i received a mail with a name PAYPAL . The mail is apparent that , this is some kind of fraud. No special knowledge is required to identify a phishing site. Just look around the mail for suspicious information. Some critical clues The Contents of the mail is as Follows 1. In Sender address - the domain name is other than paypal(i.e it is not support@paypal.com ) 2. The mail is found in SPAM folder 3. The Mail greets me as Dear PP member . But the fact, Paypal greets every member with their Name . 4. The Web Link. This is quite tricky. It almost looks like paypal official website. But if you can look a bit deeper, you can see some other names are also appended. Many people might not notice everything and blindly click the link and provide their secret information and lose themselves. Mostly busy people are trapped as they fail to notice due to lack of time. I put forward my own experience here in this...

This is bad. The well know remedy realm is not reachable.I just tried to enter yahoo answers now, but i got an error message Network timed Out .As i always do typographical mistakes , i checked the URL again whether i entered Yaho Ansers or something else instead of the Correct Spelling.The Selling is correct. Still i did not believe in my self. I googled "Yahoo answers". OOPS!! It is it. Yahoo answers server is down. My questions is Whether Yahoo is been hammered by too many user s or the most famous DOS Attack. Lets wait and see.

Signature in Google community - Un-officially

The Main problem of Google Community Users is the Lack of Signatures. Even old users who have some decent number of posts, who are theoretically eligible to have signature, are yet to get their signatures. The main reason people look for signatures is they are do follow therein they promote their website and blog. I got a solution for that. When you type a link.Its is converted to plaint text. http://www.google.com is not a link but just a text. Instead give Google and Select the text and Click the hyper link in the Editor and Paste the URL. Now its a URL and it will act as a signature. Manage with it until you get signatures enabled.

Blogger Abnormal Editor

This is quite funny and interesting. I felt this recently when i was making an article. I typed an article what i planned. After completing it , i reviewed it. Found some spelling and grammatic mistakes.I corrected all those. While am in the processing, i deleted a line unfortunately. I did not worry as CTRL + Z is always there to help. But this time CTRL + Z worked a bit extra. When i used the re-do option. The deleted line was restored, in addition to that,the correction what i made before were also rolled back. This might be a misfunction in Blogger stack. The history gathers more than one item, so that all operations that were carried out will be undone.Weird!!!Adding to it, this is the second weird feature i found in blogger .

Disposable E-Mail

The Most irritating Scenario. You look for something online through Google, you got the website which has what you need, but they want you to register with time. You do just because you desperately need it. After a while, your inbox will be flooded with the website, merchandising their products and other stuff. For people whose eyes has been tied in this case, here comes the eye opener. Disposable E-Mail. 1. Visit 10 Minute Mail 2. Your temporary email is right ahead on the home page. 3. Copy that and use it where ever you want. 4. Refresh the page once , to see your inbox. 5. You can even reply to a mail from the Temporary ID. 6. If you need the email to last long for some more time, Click the Link Give me 10 more Minutes , your email ID's deadline will be increased. Warning: Keep an eye on the counter, if you lose the ID you can never get it back . The inbox is lost once for all when you lose the ID.

Search Engines What it actually means?

This might sound funny but this is real. I recently searched the Keyword " Search Engine "(Ofcourse no other job) in bing, because it is the one which is on hot air now.Alas! The first page results had no link to Bing.com. Now its Google's turn.Searched the Same keyword "Search Engine".First page results contained Google. But after Bing.Shocking. How come a search engine dont have enough keyword to bring its own Engine to the top. Bing might claims it as Decision Engine . But Google? The Image reveals one more detail. Both the results have Altavista with higher preference than Google and Bing.
