Suggestions for Gmail

Although gmail is an award winning email service, but one I would like to add is that sometimes people make the gmail ids and then they forget about it ie. they stop using it, so gmail should look into this and deactivate their account like hotmail so that some other user can use that id.

Infosys - Employees Hell

It all started with a suicide at infosys, post at my other blog- not to forget the comments that people posted there. They don't even ask their employees during interview "Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?", a basic question that is asked in every interview. The reason is clear, infosys just don't care about their employees, they are merely the hardworking donkeys. Another complaint that is coming from the infosys employees is that they are not assigned the project in which they are given the training i.e they are given the training in .NET and they will put you in some other VB project.

Cell phones not good for the children and pregnant women-Indian Govt.

The debate has been continuing for quite some time about the harmful effects of using cell phones. Now Indian Govt. has asked the cell phone operators like airtel, idea, vodaphone etc. not to issue cell phones to the children below 16 years of age and asked the pregnant women not to use them as this could hamper the brain development of the child. But children are so much used to it that it is almost impossible to take away from them. It is not a luxury anymore, but a necessity. Some of the parents are taking the connection in their name and giving the cell phones to their kids. So the need of the hour is to educate and convince the parents 1st.

Samsung's new YP-K3JQB 2GB Ultra Slim MP3 Player

Samsung has come with its new slim 2 GB ultra slim MP3 player with the touchpad buttons which i think works good but at the same time gets damaged in a very short time considering the rough n tough usage of the player. Battery life is upto 20 hrs. If you are looking for some more space in the player then you have to consider other options like those of COWON MP3 player which uses the hard disk instead of flash memory and the sound quality of COWON is also excellent.

Twitter - charges for cellphones

I found twitter not that useful but this is post for all those who want to know the pricing of sending and receiving sms using the twitter service which states in its "Terms of use" that all the sending and receiving is free. I used this service for a month and i am using airtel (Delhi) postpaid connection. So the receiving is free but there is charge of Rs.3 per sms that you send to twitter website which further gets relayed to your twitter friends.

Romania UFO attack

I am hearing the news of an attack on MIG of Romania by some 4 UFOs. Every week these kind of news comes up and nothing really turns up. It is just the eye-catcher of the TV channels for the viewers to get the TRP. This is ridiculous. I think its just the hallucination of the pilots they get under the G force that they experience during the flight.

Apple has launched the new iPhone 3G which it says will cost around 199$ all over the world. But what about the data plans that comes with the operator, nothing is mentioned about that.

Google indexing acting weird

I think I have to review my other post about google indexing. When I created the blog, it was indexed within hours, but now a strange thing is happening. Now when i check my blog's indexing, its showing that no pages are currently indexed, thats strange.

Airtel Broadband -excellent service

I have been enjoying the broadband service of Airtel for over 4 years and never faced a problem, that's too good for an ISP. Now I have got a sms from them stating that they will be down for 6 hours during the night, I think that will be fine with the users, as they served them flawlessly and they too need some maintainance. Atleast they have notified their users, unlike other ISP which do their maintainance during the peak hours without even notifying their users.

Orkut - New Themes

Finally orkut is coming out with new features and not merely copying the facebook. This time they have rolled out some themes to dress your profile page a bit, but i still find it pretty childish, they can do better.
Moreover, i don't understand, why dont they go the open source way, it gives a push to this social networking site. I was reading "The Google Story" where they mentioned that they prefer to go the open source way unlike microsoft, so why is orkut an exception.
By the way you can access the new themes by going to your settings page in orkut.
