'research' ing Indian's 2007-02-04 21:32:00 Indians are considered one of the best engineers of the world these days.But one might had observed that very few Indians innovate and research a product.Even if they do so many a times it happens outside India.y?????? Our system is designed in such a way that students in universities have a kind of thinking like getting back the money they had paid for the education fastly and then setting up the assets and taking up the responsibility of the family and all.In US ,students have a option of part time job which helps them get the expenses needed for them for the higher studies facilitating them to think freely about the future.Apart from financial problems parents most of them behave as paranoids asking the child to get a good job and settle fast.They want to secure the future of the child.Not only parents its the surroundings that force you change your course of mind sometimes.When I was in x th standard i dreamt of becoming a scientist,but now i ended up somewhere else in I

50 + 40 = 70 2007-02-08 16:29:00 The new marketing style of the branded cloth stores and goods in India is putting up a sale board infront of their shop.Normally some companies come up with flat a% offer and they offer some old stock to you or goods with minor defects.But for the good ones they cant come up with these flat offers.So they come up with upto 50% offer with upto written in very small size.Most of the people get into these stores thinking that they get 50% off.But now a days growing up companies like koutons,cantabil etc is attracting people by putting up boards like 50+x*% where x can be anything.Here by Im posting a pic which appears that its50%+40% =90%.But when you closely observe it you find it as 50+40* [* 40% is on the price after first 50%] i.e 50+(2000/100)=70%.Any new person who sees this board gets attracted and gets into the shop.If this is restricted to global brands its good because they tell the customer as soon as one enters the shop and they provide a bit of quality .But These days even a
Hackers attack on the root servers 2007-02-08 15:29:00 Before you read this you need to know a bit of terminologyA set of servers
called domain name servers maps the human readable names to IP adresses.These servers are simple databases that map names to IP adresses and they are distributed all over the netWhen a computer on the Internet wants to resolve a domain name,it works from right to left,asking each name server to turn about the element to its left.Each top level domain has its own set of servers which in turn delegate to the name servers responsible for individual domain namesHackersattack
ed the root servers* significantly after a long time since 2002 on Tuesday night.Believed to be from Asia ,hackers bombarded 13 root servers that serve as internet central adress books.But there was very little effect on the internet users.An average user would have barely noticed it.Hackers periodically try to overwhelm the root servers with requests and information which slows down the network and increasing the server response time.The serve
Ibibo - Great Indian idle people hunt 2007-02-09 15:19:00 Ibibo.com has started a competition for the Indian bloggers under the name great Indian blogger hunt and they also set some prizes worth 1.5 crore.But I didn't understand to whom they really want to give the prize to.Initially when the competition is started ,I also joined thinking it will be fair.But in the end i found it merely a waste of time.There is nothing out there for a real blogger.It is just meant to cash the people

Google feels it can't maintain youtube 2007-02-09 13:54:00 Video hosting services are going to have a setback after some internet companies declared on Wednesday that they don't feel better investing this much heavily to keep the data flowing.Google
which acquired online video sharing site youtube last year,said the internet was not designed for TV.It even issued a warning to the companies who think they can start distributing mainstream TV shows and movies on a global scale at broadcast quality over the Internet.The web infrastructure and even Google's cant scale.Google instead offered to work together with cable operators to combine its technology for searching for video and TV footage and its tailored advertising with the cable networks.high quality delivery of shows.The data involved in one hour can scale to one year's worth of emails.Most of traffic on net is peer to peer and video sharing.Even though the hosting companies are trying their best to increase user experience,the satisfaction of users is decreasing.Companies cant keep on

Oil and the world 2007-02-10 20:15:00 Oil is the modern world's most needed resource. It is a resource created by nature over several millenniums and one that will be most probably be squandered away by humanity in less than a century. It is a resource that has dictated modern international diplomacy and politics, a resource now on the verge of extinction. I think it is time to look back at the way we have manifested this resource, how political games have been played and wars been fought under the cover of a philanthropic cause. Oil has been, till now, the driving force behind our industries. It has fulfilled human energy needs for several decades. In fact, several economic models measure a country's growth and economy by the amount of oil it consumes. From automobiles to kitchen gas to industrial usage, it wouldnt be wrong to say that oil as a source of energy has some influence on all our lives. So I cant understand why doesnt anybody today ask the question "What after Oil ?" Is it such a difficult global scenario to

involved in the team.Everyone in the board wants to have their associated player enter the international arena.The president of the board normally looks like the big player of this game.Earlier it was dalmiya who always backed ganguly and now its the turn of powar who backs Mumbai players.Apart from this there are lot of players in the team Read more:sport
