bitsquare blog alexa rank is 13....

Hi inspirits,suddenly the Alexa rank of my blog bitsquare is above my imagination and reach.Alexa is showing my rank as 13 and I know it is a error but how come it gave that error number to me.Previously it was some where in lakhs and just kept on decreasing by hundreds only but still it will be around one lakh above ,but this sudden rank in top 20 is unexpected.Along with writing to Alexa,I am asking any of my fellow blogger's came across this issue.If yes let me know.But do not ask me the tip for getting this rank...lol...

SMS Google for quick results.

Google had another feather in its crown now.this time it is offering mobile search but not free of cost and this is available with only few telecom service providers. but the problem is it is not a refined search but for the time being it is very helpful.For a free demo you can log on to Google SMS beta now and know the different types of search it provides.
there are several search features in it and according to that we can refine our search on out own ways.Currently the GOOGLE SMS is available to all Airtel , BPL , BSNL and Reliance subscribers in Bangalore,Hyderabad and Delhi.For example if you wish to find the address of a famous location you can just type "pvrcinemas hyderabad" then it will return the address of the location and phone number.It was very useful for me in finding the near by coffee day location.If it was useful to you please let me know and any further refined searches please update me.

10 golden tips for cell batteries

The very main problem with the usage of cell is battery charging,which we come across several times.since being uncommunicative immediately is alien thing in this world now a days,which happens when we run out of battery power.so here are my tips to get long life for cell battery.
1. Get rid of the little sound that the phone makes when you press a key. You should find how to do that in your phone's settings.
2.Use a louder ringtone instead of the vibration alert whenever possible. Ringtones drain lesser energy.
3.you can adjust - and reduce - the backlight timeout. Make it as low as possible.
4.Always treat your mobile-phone battery with care. Do not drop or hit it against any hard objects. And try to take extra care of the metal contact plates as they determine the connection between the mobile phone and the battery.
5.Turn OFF the phone before removing the battery. Many phone users neglect this important step, which ultimately reduces the overall performance of the battery.
6.Avoid exposing battery in the sun, as extremely high temperature reduces the capacity of the battery permanently. This commonly occurs in cases where phone owners leave their phones in the cars parked under direct sunlight or kept for charging in sunlight hit area in a room.
7.If you have a dual mode "digital and analog" phone, this one is very important... when you travel in an "Analog Area" and you know you won't need your phone for a while, turn it off, since the analog system is tougher on cell phone batteries. Digital phones actually have power management features - similar to those of your computer - that analog phones don't have.
8.The NiCad and NiMH batteries are subject to the "" to a large and small extent respectively.
Memory Effect:Suppose you recharge your phone battery every time when your battery is 60% discharged. Eventually, it will so occur that as soon as the phone gets discharged by 60%, it will "forget" that the battery has the 40% charge remaining. It will hence show the "Battery Low" indication. The rest of the 40% charge is wasted (You cannot recover it). This simply leads to a huge reduction in talk-time and standby time.
9.To get rid of memory effect in NiCad type,battery must be discharged and recharged fully on every recharge cycle.
10.To get rid of memory effect in NiMH type,battery must be discharged fully on every 20th recharge cycle.

Apple and Nike to introduce Nike Amp+ bracelet for iPods

Apple Computer and Nike plan to introduce a new wireless wristband device that will allow runners to interact with their iPods without constantly fiddling with the players' sweat-slicked Click-Wheel.
the $80 device will act as a wrist-mounted Bluetooth remote and let users browse the songs on their iPod and check running times without that constant fumbling that often ensues while attempting to maintain focus on a run.
The device will sync up with the existing Nike+iPod running system, displaying information on an illuminated LED display "hidden beneath the matte-finish face of the bracelet." Meanwhile, the iPod may remain tucked away in a runner's pocket or armband.


Further features of the device, expected to be released under the name Nike Amp+, are unclear from the report. However, a single included marketing image suggests that gadget may hold potential to deliver one of the most frequently-requested components for the Nike+iPod system: a heart rate monitor.
The Nike+iPod kit gathers data such as distance, calories burned, time and pace. The data is then stored on the iPod and easily uploaded through iTunes to nikeplus.com, a personal service site where runners can track their own progress and challenge other runners.
Nike has already introduced Nike+iPod Sport Kit and this will be available in local indian markets in two months as the souces said.

    Yahoo messenger invisible hack - How to find if someone is really offline!

    Yahoo messenger allows stealth mode using which you can set your online status as "offline" even when you are logged in to yahoo messenger. People use it to avoid chat when they are busy or to block out spam messages.
    1. But there is a hack which allows you to see whether someone is really offline or not. The easiest way is to directly acess the online status image using the URL - http://opi.yahoo.com/online?u=userid&m=g&t=2 (replace userid with the actual user id).
    2. The second way is to start a voice chat with Yahoo messenger hack for hidden or stealth users
    the userid you want to check. If you don't get an
    error it indicates that the user is indeed online,
    but in invisible mode. This works only in previous
    versions of Yahoo messenger.
    3. The only method which seems to work on latest versions of Yahoo messenger is the IMEnviornment hack. First send a message to the user id and then immediately change the IMEnviorment. Now if the guy is really offline, you will get a message "waiting for your friend to load the theme" message. If he is online, you will just get a blank page!

    Google translate to Access Blocked Websites

    Google gives a powerful tool google translate to gain access for blocked websites.I found this was working only for the websites which do not require login and authorisation.I found it when I was searching for some tool to open cricinfo.com at my workplace.Google gave this wonderful tool to access blocked websites but without pictures.
    there are several ways to gain access for blocked websites,but they worked partially for me.
    1.using IP address: Instead of typing the domain name,just type the IP address of the website.to find the IP address there is a tool like this and a way from your run command.Open..start-->run-->type"//ping www.myurlhere.com" without quotations and hit enter.you will be provided with an IP address there,copy and paste it in the address bar.
    2.using Google cache:you can find this in results of google search engine.
    3.rest is using proxy servers s all of you know like proxify,block stop and many more like this....Goolge is there for you human.

    Two monitors are better than one

    You can never have enough screen space.Instead of buying a larger monitor, if you're using Windows XP, you can buy an inexpensive second monitor and connect it to your computer—instantly doubling your desktop space. Flat panel LCD monitors look great and will save room on your desk; CRT monitors also work well and can be less expensive.

    There are several different ways you can make use of this extra screen space when working at home or in your office. If you take a lot of digital pictures, some of the advantages to having dual monitors at your work space include:
    When browsing your picture library, you can view the thumbnails on one monitor, and use the second monitor to view pictures full screen to check for proper focus and image quality.
    When editing photos, you can use one monitor to browse the pictures with Windows Explorer or a photo library program, and use the second monitor to edit the pictures with your photo-editing software.
    If you need to stay on top of your e-mail while working, you can keep your inbox open on one monitor and work on your photos on the other.


    What you'll need: desktop computer

    Many new desktop computers support dual monitors without requiring any additional hardware. To see if you have more than one monitor connection, look at the back of your computer for two Video Graphics Array (VGA) connectors or two Digital Visual Interface (DVI) connectors or one of each.

    Dual monitor setup
    Most new desktop computers include two connectors to support dual monitors.



    If you only have a single VGA or DVI connector, you will need to install a video adapter. You can either install a second video adapter or replace your current video adapter with one that has two VGA or DVI connections. Installing video adapters can be difficult if you're not familiar with the inside of your computer, so you may want to seek assistance from a local computer retailer that offers computer upgrade services.

    What you'll need: laptop computer

    If you have a laptop computer made in the last several years, you can almost certainly support an external monitor by connecting it to the VGA or DVI connector on the back of your computer. The external monitor can act as a second display to your laptop's built-in display.
    Configuring your displays
    Connect your second monitor, and then restart your computer so that it detects the new monitor. Once you have restarted your computer, you'll need to adjust your display settings by following these steps:

    1.
    Click the Start menu, and then click Control Panel.
    2.
    Click Appearance and Themes, and then click Display.


    Control Panel: Display
    Once you connect your second monitor, you need to adjust your display settings.

    3.
    In the Display Properties dialog box, click the Settings tab.
    4.
    Click the monitor icon labeled 2, and then select the Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor checkbox.

    Display Properties dialog box
    Extend your Windows desktop to your second monitor.

    5.
    If necessary, drag the monitor icons so that they are arranged in the same way as the monitors on your desk. Click the Identify button to indicate which monitor is 1 and which monitor is 2.

    Dragging monitor icons
    Drag the monitor icons to match the physical arrangement of your monitors.

    6.
    Click Apply. Windows XP will activate your new monitor.
    7.
    Click OK.
    Dual monitor setup
    A dual monitor setup enables you to view the same image side by side.


    Once your monitor is set up, you can use your mouse to grab the title bar of a window and drag it to your new display. If a window does not move when you drag it, double-click the title bar first, and then drag it. Having two monitors will forever change the way you work with your computer. Be creative and experiment with the sizing of application windows and what information you can keep in constant view while doing multiple tasks.
