Few days ago, I was kind of disappointed when I found that Orkut is not accessible on my mobile phone. The problem is the same with rediffmail too. They use javascript which the Opera Mobile and the built-in browsers are not able to decipher. Recently, I found this link which allows you to access your favourite social community – Orkut through your cellphone using GPRS.
Here’s the link:

The link is pretty long. Things are easier of you to click the tiny url for the above link. Remember to bookmark this page once it loads up.

As we near the end of another year in the 21st Century, I thought it is the right time to publish a set of must have plugins for the best browser ever – Firefox.

1. Adblock: This essential plug-in helps in blocking unwanted advertisments from displaying in the web pages you visit.You can use filters with wild cards or even regular expressions to block complete banner factories. Very useful if you use a pay-per-Mb connection or a slow internet connection and really lack to patience to wait for all those ads to download.

Ever since I expressed about my desire to earn money on the net, I got a lot of responses and questions from my friends and mates about this. I thought of putting them up here and answering them like a FAQ so as to let others to know more about this whole idea of making money on the net.

1. Can one really make money on the internet?

Starting from January I am planning to quit my day job as a Retention Officer in Telecom #1 – Airtel. Reason for quitting? I am planning to continue my studies full time. That brings me another worry; will I have to downgrade my lifestyle? Will I have to depend on my family? I am determined not to be tied down to a lower life style or live at the expense of my family. This determination made to think about opportunities to make money.

My ideology is simple; you should be rewarded for your efforts, how much ever big or small.

Look around the World Wide Web, one either has to own and MAINTAIN a community with a large number of users or have plenty to original content to attract internet users to earn and generate a decent income as pocket money or as a means of livelihood.

Who is making all the money now? Look around again, you will see that the big players like Google, MySpace, eBay, Orkut, Hi5 etc. They have something you and I lack, content and community.
