Intense Debate or Disquss : Pumping Up Your Comments

Recently we decided to pump up the comment section of our blog. The comment section is one section which really needs attention in case of blogs. Without comments your blog is dormant. So the more you make it easy for your readers to comment, the more your blog comes to life. Comments also increases pageviews for your blog, by bringing back the readers which previously commented and have subscribed by email to the future comments in that post. Comments are very necessary to build engagement of users around your content. Most of the blogs today don’t use the default commenting system of wordpress for this reason only, that it is cumbersome for users to enter their details all over again to comment. Continue reading

Chinese Hackers may Target India Too

As seeing enormous Chinese Hackers attacks on various oganisations (including Google and Tcs.com), india seems to be prone to Hackers attack as a latest case was noticed at  National Security Advisor M.K. Narayanan’s Office.

Google faced some similar suspicious activities and has decided to shut down its operations at Beijing as some of the suspicious activities were from there itself. On December 15th, Narayan claimed that many of the Govt. agencies were attacked by emails, containing malicious attachments seeking information and remote access.

Narayan also pointed that they are working to strengthen their security measures. According to Narayanan,

“This was not the first instance of an attempt to hack into our computers,” he also said that “It is difficult to find the exact source but [China] is the main suspicion. It seems well founded.

Customize How You Open Google Search

Wondering how to google ever mess, just type google.com and you are there to play with google. But this leads to a country directed page such as google.co.uk, google.co.in or co.xx. Sometimes people want to visit the google international page. So not a big task..google itself provides ways to visit google.com. Just follow the link below on google’s homepage “go to google.com” and u will land on google.com. This hyperlink refers to ‘ncr’ i.e. no country redirect and will land you on google.com

Besides u can also type google.com/intl/en/ which refers to international english, be careful to end the link with a ‘/’ or your browser will show a 404 error.

This is a bit too long to remember…I recommend a simpler way. Just type google.com/ncr and when you press enter you will be google.com international homepage. And finally you land on google.com
