Internet has become the best way of getting quick information. Now people do search for things they want to know, they want to buy. That means every product needs a clear quality clearance, proper justification before they become a master product even though it is from a very good brand. Just take for an example, a well reputed mobile company launched a new mobile, but now we have a habit of searching for the review of that particular mobile before we decide to buy it. You may think why I am writing these when the topic of this article is about the importance of Article Marketing.

“It’s a bird…it’s a plane…it’s iGoogle comics theme” – that’s how Google announces the launch of Comics Themes on Official Google Blog. Basically it’s the Google approach to celebrate Comic-con’s 40th anniversary.

Get ready to make your iGoogle homepage colorful and lively. Add comics themes; let your favorite comic’s characters accompany you on the web.

Suddenly it appeared as if the site has been hacked. The old colourful and full-of-elements webpage has got a compact, search engine look now.

The ‘less is more’ touch makes it more like a search engine. Page Title also seems to have been modified – really really long page title that cannot be accommodated by firefox and the brand name is pushed out of the range of the title bar.

This looks odd – since the portal has got a trendy look (read “Google-look”), the title should not be so long; “Rediff.com – Indian Search Engine” could leave a better impact.

News, Movies, Cricket, Money, Rediffmail, My Page, iShare and Shopping – these sections are displayed on the home page along with a link to other services. Some news headlines and related videos are also displayed on the right side of the page. The main search box remains at the top.

Previously, links to Rediff matchmaker, Rediff blogs used to be displayed on the home page. They may decide to highlight these services on homepage periodically. Let’s wait and see what else Rediff has under its sleeves.

Fuel price has increased and it will continue to rise up in future. Cost of living is at its all time high. People are trying hard to make ends meet. At this setting, Commute Easy promises a cost-effective way of commuting for Indians.

Work from home culture is not much popular in India. Indians feel comfortable to work in an office. Most people commute kilometers everyday. Commute Easy is an effort to make the journey easier. It offers a platform to the Indian commuters; here, anybody can find a pool and enter into the network of people who use the same route to go to work everyday. 

Let’s take an example: if you go to Sector V, Salt Lake from M.G. Road everyday at 9:30 am and return at 7:00 pm, you can find people who follow the same route and same time schedule. If both of you own vehicles, you can fix up a routine to decide whose car would be used on which day of the week. If there are five members in the group and all of them own vehicles, everybody needs to drive their cars just once in a week! Thus you end up saving a lot of money of fuel, right? 

When number of heads increases, you might decide to rent a car or mini bus and share the cost. No need to wait for the bus, auto or taxi; no need to fight in the crowded public conveyance – you can commute easily and comfortably. Log on to Commute Easy to know how it works.

Happy Republic Day to all our readers and subscribers.

Did you know that a Google search has a direct impact on earth’s environment? Physicists are saying so. An article published by CarbonOffsetDaily.com reveals that two Google searches performed from a desktop are equivalent to boiling a kettle of water! 

According to Alex Wissner-Gross, Harvard University Physicist, one Google search produces 7gram of Carbon dioxide and millions of people use Google without knowing the fact. But even if they come to know the fact, will they stop using Google? That’s not possible; and if they do, global economy will be in danger. 

But why environmentalists are behind Google? All web searches are likely to generate CO2 then why Google is being blamed only? Because the way it operates. 

First, Google data centers involve huge deal of power. Secondly, to provide finest search result in minimum time, Google search engine sends queries to multiple servers and returns the result from the center that processes the query in shortest time. 

However, it cannot be said, that other search engines do not have any impact on environment. The truth is when you switch on your PC, browse internet, visit web pages that contain images, animation, videos and graphics, send emails, chat and write blogs – you contribute to global warming. 

Hence, blaming Google is not the solution. Data centers, where 24×7 power supply is mandatory, must be equipped with alternative energy all over the world. 

And Google has started working on this front. Google is committed to reduce its impact on earth’s environment. Visit Going Green at Google to know more about this. 

Moreover, in response to Alex Wissner-Gross, Google had published a blog post describing the power consumption of a Google search in a realistic and authentic manner. According to this calculation, one Google search produces 0.2gram of CO2. This calculation seems so authentic that Alex had to reconsider his calculation. Learn more about the debate on Official Google Blog. 

Whatever is the correct figure, we need to be more cautious about our internet usage. Can we still use it for fun? What do you think?

W3Guru India Wishes A Very Merry Christmas To All Its Readers And Subscribers!
