Threat for Google?

Preview SeekAnother Search Engine in making. Preview seek Ltd. is a UK based company which has come with a new approach to your searchings. They are already boasting as “ The world's most advanced search engine”and “you will immediately see the powerful differences between traditional search engines like Google and us

Anyway, Some of the features of Preview Seek are:

-> Shows the preview of search result website.

-> “ PreviewSeek also knows this about:” feature.
Eg: if you search a phrase which has more than one meaning then you will see this feature, like when you search Java, you get three different categories what Java means in geography, computer science and other plus your search results.

-> The best feature I think is the categorically refining the search on the left bar.

Kill Bill's Browser

This is new and aggressive Firefox support campaign. Kill Bill's Browser and Explorer Destroyer are two web sites started by a Massachusetts based group of four friends and full-time political activists to spread Firefox in a new and innovative way.

According to them there are 13 reasons you should shift to Firefox from
Internet Explorer like:

-> You'll only see porn when you want to.
-> Mozilla has never made a talking paperclip.
-> Your computer won't spend its free time telling the world
about Viagra soft tabs.

There are 3 types of levels to support this campaign to encourage people
to download Firefox.

Level 1: Gentle Encouragement
Level 2: Semi-serious
Level 3: Dead serious

You can place an ad on your site to download Firefox through your referral and
you would get $1. But, you wont get a Firefox tab in your adsense account if
you are outside united states :-(.

Anyway, I will support this campaign and configure it on my blog very soon.

Update 1: Firefox tab is available outsite the United States as well.

Update 2: It seems that using these codes will be voilation of Google Adsense program policy. Here is what Google's adsense program policy says:
Web pages may not include incentives of any kind for users to click on ads. This includes encouraging users to click on the ads or to visit the advertisers' sites as well as drawing any undue attention to the ads. For example, your site cannot contain phrases such as "click here," "support us," "visit these links," or other similar language that could apply to any ad, regardless of content. These activities are strictly prohibited in order to avoid potential inflation of advertiser costs. In addition, publishers may not bring unnatural attention to sites displaying ads or referral buttons through unsolicited mass emails or unwanted advertisements on third-party websites. Publishers are also not permitted to use deceptive or unnatural means to draw attention to or incite clicks on referral buttons.

Simply Sania

Sania Mirza gives answer to all the senseless discussions which were in media and religious group since last two months on her outfit on court.

Sania speaks out in Hindustan Times Leadership summit:
When I'm winning out there on the court, people should not worry over my skirt -- whether it's six-inch long or six feet. Anyway I can tell you all that it won't be six-inch ever, it won't be six feet either

I have not seen Sania wearing any short length outfit out of the court but when you are playing tennis you have to be in skirt then why there is so big hoopla.

On a second thought, why there is no fatwa for Meera (Pakistani actress) who is doing everything with Lucky Ali in Nazar.

So, Let there be light!

Google Base is a free Google service that helps you publish virtually any kind of information - be it your latest riveting screenplay, a review of your favorite local dive bar, schematics for advanced robot-building, or a listing for your slightly dented 1989 Honda Accord - on Google or other Google properties.

You can upload in bulk also. Bulk uploads allow you to upload multiple items at a time. You can upload in bulk in Tab-delimited, RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, and Atom formats.

Google Base is so powerful that some people
think Google base may impact eBay and classifieds

gOffice is here

gOffice is here but it's not from Google. gOffice is a free web based Office suite which has Word processor, desktop publishing, presentation and spreadsheet. However, Presentation and Spreadsheet are in the developement mode.

The best part of the suite is, after creating a document it directly exports it in PDF and you can save it on your computer. Earlier, I was using Writley but it does not exports your documents in PDF. Moreover, it has only word proccessing.

Thanks Sarah for the information

Aaj Nisha ki shaadi hai

You will think who this Nisha is. Nisha is a new face of news hungry News
Industry. Now, let me tell you who the Nisha is. Nisha is a girl who
injured in Delhi bomb blast and she got married today. Star News
dedicated a complete one hour news for her marriage. I don’t see any
reason for dedicating one hour coverage for this news.

They were also asking things like: Today is your marriage, how do u
feel. Abviously, if a person getting married will be happy.

One more instance was when Abu salem and Monika bedi produced
in the court. The news channel was telling us " Abu salem was wearing
a Jeans, T-shirt and Monica was wearing yellow top ".

Will this make any difference if Abu salem is wearing a kurta pajama or
shorts for that matter.

Show us some real news guys!
