Why a free email account sucks?
The internet has tons and loads of information that is available for free. But does reading and goggling up all sorts of information day and night get you a PHD? Well, Billy Gates might be thinking that the internet would soon be a college or university in the near future its a long way to go. So why does all your knowledge not get you any certification after years of referring to the tons of information available here.
One might think I am diverting from the topic but it is quite relevant. The its not he information that earns you your grades and certifications, it is the authenticity of the information. It is how well the knowledge is organized to be put to practical terms and for that you need it to be authenticated and verified by people, living and physical.
When we talk about the internet it is completely virtual and a free email address or a free blogging service or anything that can be grabbed by anyone is unauthentic. Remember a facebook account cannot provide identity information nor can a free gmail or hotmail account authenticate your ID. Its like what Bob said “pope@hotmail.com or gmail.com” does not authenticate that the email is from him.
Most online merchants see the use of a free email account as a suspect of fraud. Such email accounts are also prone to getting your personal and private information at threat of being stolen anytime. Exchanging sensitive information related to your bank accounts or credit card details or online accounts like paypal can land you into a mess if ever the account is compromised.There are several ways this can happen and its a different story for another time.
Those of us who spend a few hours daily on the internet spend at least a few 100$ a year on surfing the internet, especially emailing but ignore a small little expense of getting a paid email account with our own domain name and space. Having total control over our personal and valuable data. It would cost a few dollars a month just to do that. Ekhwan has several plans including Email Solutions as well as Complete Hosting Plans for those who want to establish their own identity on the internet.
What domain should you register? Simply go for your own name or your company name or nickname whatever you think might make it easier for people to identify you on the internet. I have got myself domains like juzarnoorani.com and juzar.net Remember it does pay to have your own domain name and your email, blogs, website hosted on an easily accessible hosting account. It will save you all the trouble of mixed up identities on the internet and give you the authenticity you need. Apart from Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail and many other services, you might also consider having a second thought on third party free blogging services if you are an active blogger.

SMS Updates from Twitter
If you haven’t joined twitter yet or you do not know much about the social networking site, it is one of the most fantastic things that could happen in the mobile industry, or short messaging or even mini-blogging. Whatever one might prefer to call it, TWITTER rocks.
All you have to do is create an account for yourself and receive updates from your contacts, ie those people whom you wish to follow or receive updates from. These updates are called tweets.
You can search for a friend and then follow him/her or you can simply go to their URL and follow. Example: http://twitter.com/juzarnoorani or http://twitter.com/ekhwan Simply click the “Follow” button to add the person to your contact list.
When I say twitter being a best thing for mobiles I mean it. Twitter sends sms updates to your handset. Not from all of those you follow but from those whom you opt to have their tweet updates sent to you as sms notification.
For this you can go http://twitter.com/devices and setup your mobile number to access twitter and you might allow messages from the your contacts or those you follow.
The good thing is that it has a do not disturb system in place as well, where you can choose not to receive sms alerts at certain times of the day.
Once you have authenticated your mobile to access twitter, you can receive tweets in sms from all the contacts you select, Free of charge.
Whats greater even is that when you tweet or send an sms to your twitter account, all those following you will receive the tweet on their home page or their mobile softwares like nimbuzz or even just get an sms on their handsets, depending on the options they choose.
Great isn’t it. You can simply message all those following you, in other terms, all those who have added you to their contact list, in one go. At the cost of a single sms. Or even free if you are doing it though the internet.
Twitter now works with the DU network in UAE and Airtel in India. There are several network providers that support twitter worldwide. You can check it out if your local service provider is available.

Note: Just like every social networking site, you should also keep your privacy as priority on Twitter as well. Check who is following you, whom you follow. There are many verified celebrity accounts on twitter as well.

Snoring
Ever been a victim of snoring. It can kill a person. No I am not joking. Sometime back I read in the newspaper that in China a student killed his roommate just because he was tired of his snoring. Weird but true to be in the news. The story goes that it had been months since he was suffering sleepless nights at the hostel and had also complained about the matter but it was ignored. Finally his stress level grew to such an extent that it happened.
Just think if you can’t sleep for a few consecutive night and are deprived of it due to this menace. Starving can depreciate a persons health to an extent to make him week but depriving sleep would make a person a maniac. There are many instances in life when we have to share a room or a common place for sleep, maybe, in a train even and if ever someone becomes a target or shikar of this problem we get out of control. At times the person who snores sleeps happily and most comfortably while we just being nice sit there dreaming for a nap out of courtesy or just for the sake of being good. What an emotionally threatening scene.
The culprit is least bothered, in fact is fully rested and at peace while all those around him/her are troubled because of him and dare not utter a word. Bechare ko kaise jagaen. Frustration runs in the veins from top to bottom while the cause of the problem is full at ease.
The music goes on and you wait the whole night just waiting for it to stop to have some rest and revive your body of its lost energy but alas it goes on until the day rises. This is what I might call emotional atyachar.

Success Begins with a Dream
Every successful person, every leader or any of those greatest men we adore who ever walked on the face of the earth were true dreamers. They dreamed to what no one would have ever dared to do in their situation. They were not afraid of the idea that finally made them successful. They not only dreamed big but also believed in their dream.
Belief has such huge strength that can do wonder. It can move the entire existence to work in favor of that belief be is a positive one or a negative thought. Anyone who wants to succeed needs to have a burning desire to have his exact need fulfilled to such an extent that he would see himself actually possessing it. If you want to have a Rolls Royce for your car dream for it and believe that you will possess it someday. Feel yourself actually driving one or sitting in one. Go for a test drive once in a while and feel yourself owning it.
The key to the entire process is to believe in your dream, to have a burning desire to achieve it. Nothing can be gained until you have first given something to receive it. Think and be precise about the think you will do or give to have your dream. Ask and you shall receive is the key to all the success and happiness be it materialistic or be it spiritual in nature. Dreams have no limits and so does ones desire. The more the burning desire the more stronger the belief. Belief can do wonders. Belief does not have choices, it is always a win or die situation and obviously no one wants to die.
