DIGITAL TYKE

My association with Google started some years ago.I used many of their products and still like them even though they gather my personal information, my browsing habits etc for improving their products and for developing stronger marketing and advertising strategies.In 2007, i got signed up as an adsense publisher and now i am getting regular cheques from them. Usually the cheques are sent on the last week of a month.The dates would be like May 25, June 24, August 25, September 26 etc.But in December, the cheques are send on 19th of December.This is because they know that it is going to get delayed due to christmas and new year holidays.So they plan it earlier so that publishers get the cheques on time.Professionalism can be observed in such minute incidents.

One fine morning, it was yet another hectic day at the busy cash counter of a leading bank.A young man pointed a pistol to the cashier and shouted to him to fill a bag he gave with the other hand with money.He shouted, "Make it fast". The unexpected attack got the clients and banking staff present there in utter shock.For the love of his life , the cashier loaded the bag with bundles of currency.To create an atmosphere of terror, he fired some shots over the head damaging seriously tube lights and composite panel cieling. Once he got hold of the bag he was making way to the exit.Suddenly the gigantic bank robberer turned back and walked back to the bank manager who rushed in at the spot.Since the theif did not used a mask everyone in the room photographed his face in their mind. He asked the manager, "Did u see my face?". The brave manager even though with fear inside replied strongly, "yes i saw it".A bullet for him was the reply while all the others made

Some people are gifted with a beautiful mind.Let me correct the sentence again.All people are gifted with beautiful minds and are unique.It is just that you recognize it's quality a little late. Mr Arun is a billionaire Indian businessman based in New York.One afternoon he walked in to a bank in New York.He requested a loan of 5000 $.The banker declined stating that they need necessary security for granting the loan.Arun gladly gave the keys of his red Ferrari parked in bank's parking area.Suddenly his loan was granted.When we was walking out , the banker thought that what a fool Arun is.Since he pledged a car worth 2,50,000 $ for a meagre amount of $5000.He couldn't help stop laughing thinking about the foolishness.Soon a bank employee took the car to the underground parking area of the bank. After 2 weeks, Arun came back to the bank and returned the $5000.He paid an additional $16 as interest for two weeks.The banker told him that he was glad doing banking with Arun and h

People are shocked when they heard Mr Anthuley playing the communal cards and eyeing minority votebank by saying that he is suspicious of Karkare's death.This was not the right time.You had enough time later when the nation is going to face the polls.It was an unbecoming of your office.You will have to face the wrath of common man for sometime.They will forget later since you have trained them to do so.This is the time to see the indian citizens as indians and not to see them as hindu, muslim, christian, sikh, tamil, punjabi, bihari, maratha..etc. A minister who says the same language that pakistan uses...This time minorities won't stand with you to dance with your tricks........Not this time.

George Bush is leaving his chair in a rather sad note.He is himself worried about the economy and his image and stature in US and around the world is the lowest currently.His foreign policies made him a figure to hate upon around the world.He was a war monger and he gets bored when there is no war.I heard this in a film. Now an Iraqi media person throws his shoes at Mr. Bush.Thanks to his acrobatic skills that helped him to duck at the correct moment. People of Iraq hates him.But is this the way to treat him?Many say that he raided Iraq for oil and water from Tigris.Some consider him as the new face of imperialism in the 21st century.A man who acts for his corporate bosses.As a coward who withdrew from the Kyoto protocol. He cannot escape the sins saying that he acted in the interest of the people of America.As per the US government census of 2007, the poverty rate in America is 12,5 percent.37.3 million people are living in poverty there.So he should be dealing problems in his country

Komli Inc is an indian ad network that provides banner advertising.Many indian advertisers are using Komli to reach out to indian diaspora around the globe.Do not use komli if your visitors are not ninety percent Indians.Komli has NRI ads of bharatmatrimony and simplymarry.

We all are account holders of a great bank where on everyday our account have an opening balance of 86400 and goes to the next working day with zero balance. The name of the bank is " TIME ".Every morning 86400 seconds are deposited in this account. If you have not used the seconds for good acts, you need to write off the amount each night.If you do acts of kindness and goodness, certainly there would be nothing left at night. Every new day in this bank, a new account is opened.There is no overdraft facility available here. You are failure if you cannot use the sum deposited by the day.Because you cannot walk back in time .The rewind button is seldom present.This bank do not sanction loans expecting your future growth or returns. So we can only live back the life with today's deposits, certainly not tomorrows. So use the deposits judiciously for creating maximum happiness and goodness around you. Remember the clock are ticking as well as time.

CFLs or Compact Florescent Lamps are household names now a days.The trend emerged in the 90s in India.Anert the kerala government's energy conservation agency sold these lamps at subsidy to encourage usage of these lamps which were heavily priced when they were introduced. CFL is a miniature of your fluorascent tube.It has an electronics ballast and a small phosphor coated tube.The ballast creates high frequency current in the range of 40Khz or more.This current causes the gas inside the tube to emit ultraviolet waves.This UV rays are absorbed by the phosphor coating of your CFL tube and it emits white light. CFLs lasts around 5 years much more than an incandescent lamp.It consumes less electricity and provides more illumination.So even though cost is higher , as you use it ,it will be okie. Havells india offers good CFLs at economic rates though cheaper CFLs are available from Khaitan and Bajaj. Click here to read the user guide of Havells CFL (PDF) Cost of Havells CFL Havells CF

My father took his last breath at a hospital in mavelikkara in Kerala.The hospital guys would report to the local authority.That is the municipality.For a death certificate you need to apply at the municipality or panchayat. Pay Rs 10 and ask for an application form. Buy a stamp paper of Kerala Government worth Rs 10 from licenced vendors.(The persons who write the legal papers of a land) Buy a court Fee stamp worth Rs 1 from there. Paste the stamp in the application form and fill in the required info carefully like name of the deceased persons, name of his parent, his address , your address etc. Buy a A4 size thick whitepaper from a nearby bookshop Staple the form, the paper and the stamp paper. Fill a challan form(kerala government) for paying the required fees. Pay a fees of Rs 7 and get the receipt. They will print the certificate on the stamp paper and other contents on the whitepaper. After sealing and signing they will give you the certificate after taking the receipt.

You should be cautious when buying reliance products.This is what people use to say over here.Because reliance would have terms of service that suits them and would have not much for the customer.I called the customer service number which is busy every time because it is toll free.Toll free numbers could handle only lesser number of calls at a time.This is my experience calling different toll free numbers.Do not try to call Big TV Toll free number.You won't get it.It is always busy. The other number costs more than an STD.Yeah it is an STD call.I guess it is to knowledge park or some sort of relaince data center............blah blah blah..................An operator will tell you how to buy the product............She will ask you to go to the nearest Webworld and buy the get started kit for 1990 or 2190.Then again call the call center and request for installation. You Know What I did Last Tuesday I walked out of my home and rode my bajaj ct100 and visited the electronics shop near

The wait is over for many TV set owners planning to switch to Direct to Home Reception of Satellite TV Channels.Those guys were waiting for the Reliance BIG TV.Everyone expected it to be so cheap and guessed Mr. Ambani would share his fortune with the common man and would make cheap channel loaded DTH service for him. It is true that those guys have more channels at the rate they give.South Indian customers would be charged less because of the presence of cheaper SUN Direct there.Sundirect offers 1 year validity DTH for Rs 1999 .So reliance who wanted to offer the cheapest ran in and offered at Rs 1990/-. Rs 1990 includes GSK or Get Started KIt and Set Top Box worth Rs 1450/- Rs 500/- worth recharge coupons One year validity included in this package Installation included in the price They mention about some 30 movie channels.God knows about them Facility to connect to mutiple TV at discount rates.It might be a trap.Don't teach Ambanis to make traps.Think of the Rs 500 phone they so

The guys at Idea are the best ones doing fraud legally.I have been mentioning this fact in my previous posts too.Unlimited Internet access via GPRS and EDGE costed Rs 9 per day on your mobiles for some time.Now they have hiked it to 25 Rs.Airtel has also hiked the charge.It is interesting to note that this is a time when BSNL has started giving CDMA 1X service at 250 Rs per month. Rs 9 -------> Rs 25 I do not justify this hike blaming inflation.Moreover the service sucks.It get disconnected now and again.To deactivate you need to call the customer care number which is always busy.This time i tried calling continuously for 2 hours.At last got connected and deactivated the plan.The call center guy told me that existing customers can still use the service at Rs 9 for six months after activation as a token from Idea. The customer care of idea sucks.It is always busy.Is this the way to run a business that has value?I had invested some money in idea stocks through their IPO.It is good tha
