Please do not send me any enquiries reg. driving licences. I do not work for the RTA and have provided the information available here from the procedure I followed while procuring the licence.

Informing search engines about change in url

I recently changed my website address from rahul.ind.in to rahul.amaram.name due to some reasons. The biggest problem I was facing with this was that all my pages were previously indexed in Google with the website name rahul.ind.in. Though I re-submitted my new url to Google (http://www.google.com/addurl/), the rankings were still for the old url. And I couldn't find any way of contacting Google customer care / any method to inform of the change in the url.

Cheap Heat Reduction Strategy

We (my colleagues and I) are currently working from a single room in the top floor (which means the room is exposed to the sun almost throughout the day). I was looking for ways to beat the heat other than using an A/C (as it is costly) and Air Cooler (as it would increase humidity which might harm the computer systems). This is what I finally did to address the heat problem.

Javascript Naming Conventions, Coding Guidelines and Best Practices

While most of the popular languages (Java, .NET, C++) have elaborate documents on the naming conventions to follow, I couldn't find any such good document for javascript. All I could find was bits and pieces here and there. This is the main reason why I am creating this page listing the javascript naming conventions I follow. This may not be complete but I shall try to make it as comprehensive as possible.

1. All variables should be prefixed with a letter indicating the data type of the variable (Hungarian notation). These would be as below:

s - String
n - number
b - boolean

A Visit to Anantagiri Hills

I along with few of my IIIT classmates had planned a get together yesterday. Not wanting to go to one of the regular places, we decided to pay a visit to Anantigiri Hills (75 kms from Hyderabad). Not a bad choice but at a completely wrong time. We've heard this place is really good but that is only in the rainy and winter season. Only too bad, we went in summer :). All the trees had shed their leaves. Some of us tried trekking for a while after which we got so exhausted that we just lazed about for a couple of hours in the shade and then started back.

My morning alarm is gone on a trip :(

To begin with, I've spent some time last week with my cousin Appu. Well, only a couple of days actually. One was all day out and the other day was at our aunt's place. We went to the movie 300 in PVR, did go-karting and played a few games like FooseBall, Air Hockey at Runaway 9 and to end it went for a boat ride and had dinner at Eat Street. The first time I am taking someone out for an entire day driving all by myself. So this makes it quite a special event for me :). She left to U.S. yesterday night.

Activating BSNL AMS facility

BSNL offers AMS facility for its customers. And in my humble opinion, their service sucks. I had the AMS facility activated after a lot of trouble and then one fine day, it was deactivated for no good reason. I again had to go through almost the entire procedure for having it activated.

Anyway, my woos aside, here is the procedure for activating AMS. You initially need to call the AMS customer care (156) and ask them to clear your mailbox number. This is the steps they will ask you to follow.

1. Dial 170512.
2. You are presented with choices for language (Select 1 for English)
