5 most popular file extensions in the world

Ever since I started using computer I have been dealing with files, files and files. There is nothing to check on my system other than files. There are around thousands of file types available today. But ever thought what would be your life without certain file types? What if those file types were never discovered ? What would we have done in that situation ? Thoughts are really scary believe me.  Imagine a pile up CDs lying in your cuboard and out of those CDs only 2-3 tracks are useful. Imagine Bulky Movies on your hard drive. Had DivX not been developed we would be having terrible time with our hard drive space.

Bing – Next big thing for SEOs

bing_seo_tips_and_tricks

Well, I wanted to write about it for a long time but was not able to gather the data around it. Today I got to search the internet. I have been quite busy lately. The thing is that at this point of time Google dominates the Search Engine market. Therefore most of the SEOs or people like me who are trying to learn this trick want to get their pages up on google. Now as per the stats, Microsoft holds the largest share in OS and Browser field. Now coming October this year when Microsoft launches Windows 7 they will have Internet Explorer 8 shipped with it. And with Internet Explorer 8 they will ship the default search Engine and that will be Bing.

What we did not see in Mumbai Terrorist Attacks

I just started my day in anger, grievance and shock today. I was chatting with one of my old friend yesterday night. He is in UK for study and while chatting he asked me to download a documentary on Mumbai Terror attacks. The documentary revolves around eye witnesses and their interviews just after the attack. It has rare videos shot just after the attack. The most amazing are the never heard calls which were made by terrorists and their commanders. There are security camera videos as well from Taj, CST and other places.

I can’t even begin to explain how bad I felt after watching the documentary.  The guy whose whole family died is haunting me till now. His words “I don’t understand why they kill people” is what I can’t forget. I don’t think I will ever be able to. In the documentary there was a video which shows Policemen running away from CST as soon as they saw the terrorists. Well, I know people get scared of these kind of things. But then what is the difference between Police and Civilian. I am still not convinced that if there is anything that we have learnt from the Mumbai Attacks. I think we will never be.

My observation of the whole movie is :

Mumbai Police : Yes some fought bravely but some really did show that they are in a Govt. job not in a life saving job.

Indian Media : The most fucking and shitting media ever. They just show anything and everything. I just can’t tell you what I am feeling right now while writing this. They don’t even care what will happen if they show everything live. Our media is like If someone is dying, they would interview it first. Show it live and display EXCLUSIVE on their News Channel and the report back and the person will die in the back..

People : Here in India, people are so fond of Camera that they forget where they are. They just want to appear in front of Camera. No matter if anyone is dying just before them. They just want to be there and get interviewed.

I would recommend you all Indians, in fact every one in the world to watch this movie. There are some footage which are rare and not seen ever. See the people speaking. See the Indians talking about that devastating day when they lost their loved ones.

Best Windows 7 Free Softwares

Alright, so after OS X it was Windows 7′s turn to sit on my desktop. I installed it after a lot of fiddling around though. I was not ready to install Windows 7 with a DVD so after searching a bit found out the solution to install Windows 7 from a USB Drive. I had some problems in the start but then AskVG’s trick worked.  Anyways, Now I am writing this from my new Windows 7, but wondering what to install in this windows. Coming from Windows Vista’s background, I really don’t have any idea what to install. All I can think of is my list of programs that were installed in Windows Vista.

Appeal – Save the Tigers

Stop killing Tigers now otherwise the generation to come will only see them in Movies, like we see dinosaurs. Over the last 1-2 decades mass killing of Tigers has happened. That all happened due to our own interest in the Tiger skin. People transported the Tiger skin and sold them. That has motivated people to kill Tigers. In an recent news It has been announced that one more Tiger Reserve Park  has been declared of not having anymore Tigers. The Tiger reserves without any Tiger is increasing day by day. If we don’t stop killing them now, Its just a matter of few more years that we will be hooking up to Discovery to watch Tiger. And just imagine the irony if Discovery doesn’t show the Tiger footage.

Where the hell are Indian Web Developers

What are you thinking now ? Does India not have good Web Developers ? Why Indian Govt websites are such pathetic to look. Is Indian Govt running out of Funds for spending money on our Country’s website. I mean this is the only thing a world looks at now days for a legitimate source of information. I feel Indian Govt websites are created just for the sake of creating them. So what do you think is responsible for this situation. Let me tell you one thing before you come to any conclusion. India has more than 50% of the Software Development Industry business. Its our sick old politicians. Who, in 21st Century don’t even know how a computer is operated. Till the time we have the old generation ruling India, we the younger generation will keep facing the issues.

Simplest way to Display Random Rotating Dynamic Posts in WordPress Widget and Sidebar

I have been trying to do if for a long time but could not find any plug-in to rotate posts in sidebar. Actually I wanted to display my featured posts in sidebar that too in random order and with some effects if possible.

With the this wordpress technique you would basically be able to fulfill the following requirements. [Read more →]
