Diwali Baksheesh – How to Plan and Manage

Around Diwali, the usual constant stream of “visitors” will show up. The crew of building watchmen (half a dozen of whom you’ve never seen before), the janitor, the postman, the maid, and probably some random strangers chancing their luck – they will all knock on your door looking for Diwali “Baksheesh.” Baksheesh is a term that loosely refers to either a tip or, interestingly, a bribe.

For people, the popularity of tipping has always been something of a mystery. Take restaurant tipping as a typical example. Since the tip is usually given at the end of the meal, what good purpose does it serve? Since the service has already been provided, it can’t by definition affect the quality of the service you received? It would make sense maybe for a repeat customer on the basis that a kind tip would lead to the probability of better service next time.

But researchers have something else to say. As per the researchers, tipping is equally likely to yield same service whether a customer plans to return or not. The consensus seems to be that tipping is best understood as a social norm, a form of charitable giving tied to the provision of a service.

What to do with your PS3 – After you bought it

I don’t know what it is that makes me get my hands on new and old gadgets. I have been planning to buy a PS3 for long and finally I got it. Thank you Papa. It wouldn’t have been possible without your support :D I bought 250 GB GOW III edition. People say its a great game well that I would have to wait and see. I am still exploring it.

I am new to gaming consoles, this is my first ever console. Alright, second; first was little master 8bit. Not into gaming much. Just bought it out of curiosity. I like to buy things which are immensely popular and are of great quality. Heard so much about PS3 and I just wanted to own one and then play ! And I also wanted to use it for media center sort of device.

How to get Hershey’s Kisses Chocolate in India

You might have Googled it a lot and found nothing. Am I right ? Yeah hope so. OK, here is the deal. I ordered Hershey’s KISSES chocolates in India and got them delivered in Delhi. I don’t know people are so mad about Hershey’s Chocolates in India. But now you can get them anywhere in India anytime you want.

The website which offers such service is http://www.us2ap.com There are multiple child websites like us2delhi, us2guntur, us2bangalore etc. But the parent site is us2ap and you might notice all these child websites link to the parent website and one does not even come to know because they are all exactly the same.

This website only accepts credit cards no net banking :(

Anyways, feedback time. It took me about 10 days to get my chocolates delivered. So if you are dying of Hershey’s Chocolate and can’t get the Hershey’s kisses in india anywhere, don’t worry you can get them here. Customer service is OK. Don’t expect much. All I want to say is expect worse customer service but your Hershey’s chocolate will be delivered for sure. Don’t worry.

If anyone knows a better way of getting these chocolate in India then please post the link here.

Use WordPress.com Blog as your Image Host

I recently got this idea and implemented it on this blog. I always run out of bandwidth if I use lot of pictures in my post. I like to add pictures in my post but as you might have noticed for the past few months I am not using much images while writing post. So I came up with a solution for  that. I had some blogs setup on WordPress and I was not using them very frequently. So I basically used the WordPress blog to host my images. Its very easy to start a blog of your own with having to have hosting or any technical knowledge.
