I wanted to do this for a long time now, but had decided to do it only after my blog has some decent statistics worth bragging talking about. I always think linking out to others is a great way to grab their attention.Vandelay Website Design blog is one such blog who has used post level link exchanges to get some great linkbacks from the blogosphere.

• Write a small paragraph about my site in your blog and include one of my posts in your entry.

Another set of fabulous videos from Vir Das, the acclaimed comedian who airs weekly on CNBC’s News On the Loose. You can call me a fan of these kind of TV Shows. I do not watch them regularly, but do manage to find them on repeat shows and stuff. So, here are a few videos for you to start off a fun filled weekend! Happy Weekend Folks!

First up,, Vir Das talks about the various ways you can find out if your minister is on opium. This is to mock the national politician dude, Mr. Jaswant who was on the news for his presence at a rave party! Funny Stuff!

Since the facelift, Google’s Orkut has been silently adding new features to the Indian/ Brazillian MySpace (is calling them that justified?). Along with better spam management in communities, choosing what you want to show to the world and other numerous features tell us that Google is dead serious about making it big in the US market.

But the other day I was checking the stats from all sources and MyBlogLog and Adsense stats confused me a lot. The variation is simply too mind blowing. Check out the MyBlogLog stats for the blog:

I have been using these tools for a long time now, so today I decided to give them a plug here These are the most important tools which I use at least once a day to safe guard my inbox from spam, which by the way has not been very successful at the moment.

BugMeNot: This is a really thoughtful idea by its creators. I am sure that you have visited sites that require you to download anything or even to view what the page is about. Registering on these sites are extremely foolish and time consuming for things as small as a download. Most of them require you to have a valid email id and stuff which I deem as a pain in the neck As per their site:

I am never a movie buff, but I do go to about 5-7 movies a year or so. But firstI just came home after watching Saawariya, the much anticipated Diwali release. I am too stupified to even guess what I did the last 3 hours of my life. Not a single scene stays in my mind and I have no guess on why this movie was even made in the first place either.

If you are anything like me, you usually spend a great deal of time online, chatting, hanging out at the forums, researching new niches and ways to make money online. The amount of information that you intake each day is simply enormous. Have you ever taken any action on the information you know yet?
