K for Kishore

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Sony Entertainment Channel has recently launched an yet another singing reality show called K for Kishore. If not for anybody else, it is surely good news for all the ardent fans of legendary singer, Kishore Da. As the name suggests, K for Kishore is a singing reality show, wherein all the participants will be singing Kishore Kumar’s songs. The underlying concept behind the show is to find a voice, familiar to that of Kishore Da. In its quest, it will take you back to the memory lane, attempting to revive the musical grandeur of the yester years. As a result, all the young men, who consider their voice can create the magic of the maestro, are eligible to participate in the show, from across the country. The winner will be declared as the ‘Heir Apparent’ of Kishore. The show has become popular from the 1st episode itself and it shall help people to go back to the era of Kishore Da once again.

Adwords publishers on the rise in India

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

Having an India specific site used to be a big no no until a couple of years ago when there were hardly any adwords publishers and there were not many ads available for Indian publishers so breaking even for those sites which didn’t sell anything was virtually impossible. Things are changing now and you can see a lot more advertisements from India as compared to a couple of years back which is all good. There has also been a sudden rise in number of websites in India and there are so many webmasters from India its just unbelievable. I hope e commerce picks up in India and Indian webmasters get a piece of the dot com cake as well.

Sify broadband at its best

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

    You must have heard me saying bad things about sify broadband all the time but I have something nice to say about sify broadband today and that is they have completed a month this time without me having to call customer service about any problem. Not that there were no problems its just that they were too little for me to pick up the phone and talk to sify’s less then competent staff. I only had a few disconnections and the connection was back up and running within a few seconds so it didn’t bother me that much. I hope sify wimax is launched as soon as possible so we don’t have to rely upon these cable operators any more.

I hope sify keeps up with this and gives even better service in future. To discuss more about sify please visit sify broadband forum.

My laptop has passed away

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

The packard bell laptop which I was going all ga ga about a couple of days ago is dead now. The hard drive made a huge cranking noise and since then it wont start I even tried to reformat it but it just wont happen as the hard drive is gone for ever. I do have a backup of the hard drive but now it will be a painto find a new hard drive for this laptop as I am sure packard bell dont have any workshops here in India and I might have to just let this laptop go for good. So atlast laptop shopping again :) might buy some cheap crap this time coz the previus one realistically cost me £500 per year as it was almost £1500 when I bought it 3 years ago.

Packard bell laptop

Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007

I have a packard bell easy note laptop whch I bought in the end of 2003 and has been working very well. I have used this Packard bell laptop more then you could ever imagine.. On an average I must have used it atleast 5-6 hours a day and at times it has been running for day at a go so I guess the £1400 something I spent on it back then was well worth it and I am typing this post on my laptop sitting in the back of my new toyota innova doing 130km/hr on the gt road going towards Jallandhar from New delhi and connected to the WWW with this reliance data card. The only problem this laptop has ever had is a few days ago when the hard drive made a cracking noise so I backed up the whole hard drive and have bought a spare one just in case this one gives up on me so I will just have to open up two screws and put this new hard drive in and my laptop will be as good as new again.

I am actually looking to sell this laptop now but dont know how much to ask for it but if you are keen on owning this technology marvel which has travelled across the globe atleast twice and have been mostly used in UK, USA and Canada and doesnt have any scratches and doesnt have any dust inside either given the fact that its never been used in India before.

I will most probbably buy some cheap laptop this time so it wont be so painful to get rid of it every year and I will be able to buy a new one every year :)

Give me a shout if you are looking to buy a used laptop I have one for sale..

Bsnl broadband

Friday, October 19th, 2007

 I recieved this e-mail from one Mr Jawahar Sharma and found it quite funny so I will share this with all of you I hope Mr Sharma wont mind.

When I surf the BSNL Site 1st time about 4-5 months back I found that BSNL is No. 1 ISP in India. I ask my son to apply for the connection.
Now even 4 Months had been passed to applied for connection. Still waiting for the connection. When we tried for the refund of connection charges we get the reply for refund you have to wait for another 2 months.

Jai Ho BSNL the No. 1 ISP of India
Jai Ho Mera Bharat Mahaan
Jai ho BSNL OFFICIALs

Mr Sharma is now a member at bsnl broadband forum so come in to have  chat if you like.

India broadband forum rankings

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

    India broadband forum has been online for a while now and has seen some excelent results on serps in the last few months which include ranking very well for all the isp names in India and even beating some of the official sites in the process. The site has been loosing ground recently and there has been a little decline in traffic in the last few weeks and the main reason is that I havent had enough time to give to this forum lately hence this decline. I am planning to spend some time on this forum and make sure that the traffic graph starts moving north wards again.

I have had some exceent tips from some of the big names in the industry regarding seo and I will try implementing them on this forum and see how it goes and just hope that the google gods shower some love on this forum soon :)

I will be posting some cool seo tips on this blog in the near future so if you are intersted keep checking.

India broadband forum launched

Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

There are tens of Internet service providers available in India to choose from and hardly any resources to find out more information abut how good or bad the service provider is or read reviews so we at India broadband thought of launching a new forum which is now all set to hit the world wide web at India broadband forum and already has some serious discussions going on amongst the few embers we have.


At broadband forum we have different sections for major isp’s like airtel broadband, reliance broadband, bsnl broadband, mtnl broadband, sify broadband and hathway broadband to name a few and for the ones which are not listed in the forum one can talk about them in the common area which is open for discussions about all other service provider which makes it more then complete. Broadband forum has future plans for adding a new forum featuring sections like tata sky and dish tv besides oter dth service providers. Broadband forum also intends to cater to the needs of mobile phone users by providing a platform for sharing mobile service reviews and providing latest news on the countries gsm industry.


Broadband forum also features a separate wimax forum which caters to needs of those looking for more information on wimax related services across India. There are a few reliance wimax reviews available already although it has only been about a month since it was launched in Bangalore.


Registration at the new website is free at the forum and reading others comments does not require membership at broadband forum . The new forum uses vbulletin script for the convenience of our members and visitors which make communicating with other members a lot more easier, fun and exciting. Members can also see other members skype and yahoo messenger status on the profile pages which will take socializing to the next level.
