Is this really just a mobile?
Written by Anurag Bhateja on May 1, 2008 – 12:33 pm -What should I say? Well RBI is going to give guidlines for payment by mobile feature by 15th june 2008. Do you understand the meaning? Well now your mobile phone will be a debit card or a credit card too!
As per reports around 25 Crore Indians use mobile where as only 1 crore people use credit card. As per banks’ statements, this will increase the credit card market to huge extend.
Cyber Law expert Pawan Duggal says, “Yes this will be a good feature but as per security this may cause a big hoax as hacking a mobile phone is much easies than hacking a laptop.” So now its your choice if you want to go with it or NOT! As per my case I will love to use it but with caution 
! Enjoy Mobile!!!!

Domain Name Registration — Some Points to take care about
Written by Anurag Bhateja on February 28, 2008 – 1:34 am -This is tech-age or you can say web-age. The easiest and most convenient way to communicate with people all around the world is to have a website/blog related to your work. Now if we are going to have a website the 1st thing that we will require is a domain name. Domain name can be defines as “Unique address identifying each site on the Internet, usually of two or more segments separated by full stops.” There are billions of companies/individuals who are providing the domain registration services but while buying a domain name it is essential to keep some main points in mind:
Who sell domain name is not a matter to discuss but the thing is who the registrar behind the registration of the domain is. ICANN is the sole body who controls .com, .net like domains and .in and .co.in are controlled by Indian Registry. All these sole bodies have appointed Accredited Registrars all over the world who sells the domains. Many organizations and companies or even individuals become resellers of these registrars and serve the general public.
- Now while buying a domain you must know:
- Who is the accredited registrar if the company/individual is a reseller?
- What domain extensions are open for you and at what cost. For e.g. a .com domain may cost you anywhere between Rs.375/- to Rs.450/- depending on the policies of the company.
- You should keep in mind while searching for a domain name:
- Never go for sites to search domain availability which you don’t know. Many cases have been reported against a big company as they register domain names which they feel are good and can be sold for good cost, immediately after you search for it.
- Try to go for top TLDs like .com, .in, .org so that it is easy for people to remember the domain name.
- Try to avoid long domain names.
- Avoid offbeat domain names i.e. no relevance to your work/company.
- While registering a domain you must own:
- All the domain ownership rights. These rights include the whois to be on your name.
- You must get a domain panel so that in future you can manage/edit/move the domain details.
- You must receive an auto generated receipt for the records. Some companies also provide printed bill and a certificate of domain ownership.
- If in certain case you want to have a privacy protection, there is no need to put wrong information but you should opt for privacy protection service which is totally free of cost.
- Many companies charge more say Rs.600/- and give you unwanted services like domain forwarding. Domain forwarding is used when you are going to redirect the domain to another website. If you have no plans of redirecting the domain then you can save up to Rs.200/- per domain by avoiding such services.
If we take care of some small facts it will be easy for us t handle the domain name more easily.Happy Surfing.
