How to install dual boot Operating System(OS)

Operating System(OS) is the heart of a computer.The very first software component that has to be installed in a system is the OS. Basic users will have only one OS in their system, obviously Windows. But advanced users like developers, programmers and other techs will have more than one OS running ,to delegate their work. Am not going to talk about either of them. This is all about people who are in the transition between a Basic User and Advance User. This first time, when you have your Windows CD/DVD(Original OfCourse!! :p) in your left hand and an Ubuntu Linux CD in your right hand, you are exactly in the entrance of a cross road, dont know which path to take.There will be a little fear about your documents because bad installation of a strange operating system might sweep your entire hard disk. Some people will have a regular back up practice, but some people (like me :p) will start looking for a media in their messy desk draw to have a back up, just before they start. Any how...

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".

Confirmation email from 000Webs

The common problem over the internet. You register for free web hosting at 000webs. And you wait for the confirmation email from them to start with your website. But you did not see any response for months and even years in my case. The ultimate reason is, 000webs silently rejects applications from countries like India and other country. The support person says, they face big problem from users from such countries. They do not want to hurt the customers and at the same time, they do not want to get in to trouble. So at the time of registration, they track your IP and locate you country. By the end of registration, you will get a message "Pending Approval".Actually that is a false message from 000webs. There is such workflow called "Approval" in 000webs. You can log in to your account right away after you complete the registration. Now the bottle neck is your country. The only way to override your country is , using a proxy. Try some online proxy, preferably US and p...

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?

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.

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...
