Airtel GPRS

Note: The GPRS plan packages and the procedure for activating and deactivating GPRS might have changed. Kindly contact Airtel customer care for exact details.

Update: I recently purchased a Nokia 3110 classic. This phone comes with EDGE and in-built modem. Using EDGE, the browsing speed seems to be reasonable.

Packages

This article is mainly for people using Airtel GPRS in Hyderabad (and Andhra Pradesh). As of the day of posting this article, Airtel Postpaid in Andhra Pradesh offers two packages for GRPS.

1. 199 flat monthly based plan

Thinkpad Backup And Linux Installation Notes

Update Sep 22, 2007: This article was written when I had purchased a Thinkpad (refurbished T40) for the first time. The article had later been upgraded when my friends purchased T41 and T43. The backup solutions described here in this article are mainly using open source tools. Though I have tested them on Thinkpads, they should work equally well on other laptops which do not come with recovery media.

Great Love Story

This is a true story of a young college girl who passed away last month.
Her name was Priya. She was hit by a lorry. She has a boy friend named
Shankar. Both of them are true lovers. They always hang on the phone.
You can never see her without her handphone. In fact she also changed
her phone from Airtel to Hutch, so both of them can be on the same
network, and save on the cost.

She spends half of the day talking with shankar. Priya's family knows
about their relationship. Shankar is very close with Priya's family.

Website Reloaded

A new year ... a new look. My site has gone a complete redesign to make it more aesthetic, more feature rich and make maintainence for me easier. And the entire credit goes to Drupal (http://www.drupal.org) for building such a wonderful CMS.

Update

Howdy! Happy Chirstmas and a Merry New Year!!! I hope everyone has a fun filled year and also hope I contribute more time to my website :D. In case you have not noticed (which I am sure you didn't :)), I have spent quite some time in converting the urls to SEF (Search Engine Friendly). Apart from that I am planning to implement the following in my website:

  • Captcha (for avoiding spamming)
  • Comments for user feedback
  • RSS for delivering content directly to feed readers

Update

It is my mom's bday and I am celebrating this by adding two great features to my site today :D - "Recents Posts" and "Google Search". I initially thought of writing my own search engine but due to lack of time, I have for the time being settled for Google Search. Very soon the comments section is also going to be added. Once that is done, I am planning to take up blogging more seriously.

Update

After a looooooooooooooong time, I am back :D. As I had already mentioned, I plan to add some great features to my website to make it more convenient for visitors like you. But not being as free as I was earlier ;-), it will take time to implement these changes. To start with, the first major change was to make the site compatible with XHtml Strict 1.0 and make it dispaly uniformaly across all major browsers. This also involved writing the code for the above menu bar by myself :).
