NDTV launches a new 'hidden' channel
I found a new channel on my Set Top Box's channel list earlier this week. NDTV launched its international movie channel 'Lumere'. It shows some globally critically acclaimed movies. This channel is in competition with Set Pix, Zee Movies, and Hallmark. I just saw one movie, Good Morning Heartache, a French movie, and liked it .

How to disaster proof your PC
Hi
I was reconciling some of the points that i'd keep in handy for making my PC 'Disaster Proof'. Here are a few points that would help you all
Keep defragmenting your all your partitions once a week to keep it working in top notch form.
Backup all the critical data on some storage media other than the primary hard drive.
Whenever you clean format your pc, make a ghost image of the partition on which the windows is installed. It would help you to set up windows and the settings quickly the next time you'd format the pc.
clean your CPU from inside once a year. Dust reduces the life of your hardware components.
Do check if all the heat emitting parts have an insulating paste to manage heat. If the paste is not there, the pc might be getting damaged as the other parts would be acting like a heatsink.
Do a disk cleanup operation once a week to get rid of all unwanted files which slowdown your pc's processing speed.
Always keep your PC's powersupply coming from a UPS. Voltage fluctuations damage the BIOS and CMOS very easily, and also damages other parts in the long run.
Hope these few small but useful tips improve your computing experience. If you have any question, or some troubleshooting assistance, feel free to ask me.

A simplified way to Shop Online
For All Those Who've Got Tired Of searching the Web for certain prodicts and end up with paid results
Hii
Its good to be writing back. Recently, one of my friends asked me some tips to take care of while shopping online. He was irritated at the fact that some specific online marketplace site would justr bring him some limited options, and he had to register from site to site in order to find that product.
Recently while surfing the web, i searched for Car+DVD Players. I was searching for DVD players online while i found this site,which gave me great results, and have to say, this site is a perfect site. It had all what i wanted - user reviews, starred ratings, tips on how to buy, and products categorised on various factors, such as price, type, etc. This site crawls the web like google, and finds out result, which is not in case of traditional paid product advertisement. That makes this site a shopper's delight . Another link i liked was the Shopping for a Cause link.
This site also gave some tips on how to take care of things, and so. One of the links i liked on the site is the Car audio and video Guide link.
Well, i do hope that some of the readers do find find themselves shoppin wiki.

Quick Tips to keep in mind before buying a new PC
Hii
I had recently compiled a list of smart tips, which anyoen buying a new pc or laptop notebook should keep in mind. Although following thewse tips may be initially not tempting, but they'll add to your advantage later, during the time of upgradation.
Always go for an great decent performing sound card. These sound cards may be a bit costlier than their alternatives, but the sound they give even with the cheapest possible speakers, would be a hell more than what a combination of costly speakers and cheap sound card gives. Also, they'll give you the ultimate sound experience in movies and games. Costly speakers can only improve the output performance of what input the sound card sends it to process, they cannot improve the input. I personally use a Rs300 2.1 chinese speakers, but my soundcard is Creative Soundblaster(and still i can bet my room can be a pub or a disc any time you want,with any sort of party music playing giving the pub experience). I can go on with this combination for years now, as the sound reproduction this arrangement gives me at full volume is as good as almost the what a dolby digital cinema hall gives(and sometimes even a bit better). I can listen to even the most minutest sound detail in any track or audio clip, even with these cheap speakers, or even free headphones which i recieved from Kingfisher Airways during a flight.
Always go for a great graphics card. Note that their RAM must be a bit more than what most of the games require at the time of buying. A few hundred rupees would give you a longer time for using that card,and hence would easily delay the time before you upgrade that graphics card. I have NVIDIA RIVA TNT(which used to produced ages back,and NVIDIA hasn't provided any updates for it since 2001), but still it plays games upto NFS7 easily(and even some of the current day games without any upgradation).
Try to go for an integrated on-board branded graphics and sound card. This reduces the damage to these cards in case any electrical fault occurs. Also, this makes configuring these cards, and managing them much easier. I have all my cards on board, because of which i hardly have never configured these cards. They get configured automatically at the time of Windows installation, and same for Direct X.
Do a market check for which products are giving you the best performance. Products of different brands with the same technical specifications are priced almost similar, but a few bucks improves the performance many folds. So dont think much about saving a few bucks(if all that comes in your budget).
Do a research on what factors of a product are critical for a buyer. For example, the RMS output of a speaker is more important than its peak output, because what we hear is at RMS output, not peak output power. We'd like to pay for performance, not capability.
Mark out to what use do you want to put your new computer to. Buy only according to what if you need those set of features. For example, buying a gaming pc and using it in the office for presentations and ducuments is just a waste of money and resources.
Follow these tips and i can guarantee that you wont be unsatisfied about the new pc you buy. Hope you find these tips useful

Bigg Nightmares........with Bigg Boss 2........!
I checked out the season 2 of Bigg Boss, which is being aired on Viacom's Color's. And i'd rather say "it is bullcrap"(a term which i coin especially for this superpathetic show) ! Rahul Mahajan, and others quarrel, abuse each other, publicise their stupid private life, and bore the hell out of us on national television. Even though their contract says that they'll be evicted the moment they abuse anyone, still they haven't been put off air(probably because the show'll go off air without any result, without any winner). I'd say these people must be shameless to be associated to such a horrible show. I pledge not watching even a single episode of bigg boss......whatever season may it be !
Media.........U suck BIGGtime !!

First Take Of the Elevate
Nice Place......But not upto the expectation
Those were the thoughts i had on my mind while entering ncr's most hyped disc - Elevate . Situated at centerstage Mall,Noida, this disc has the privledge of having big names of the world like Bryan Adams, 50 Cent , Mobb Deep, Nelly Furtado performing and Indian celebrities like Suneil Shetty , Akshay kumar visiting it whenever they're going by this city. Elevate, known for its great crowd, and great music.
Well, i went on the 28th, the day next to when Jay Sean had visited this place. And there were some trails of his appearence, some sign boards welcoming him, and a Ray Ban counter(which had been dismantled by the time i had left the place).
This place was hosting my college's freshers party which my college seniors had organised. The place was packed with guys and gals sweating it out on the dance floor. DJ Nikhil was playin there, and have to admit, he rocked us guys at many occasions(even while some of the tracks he mixed and played live were fine enough only to shake the leg to the rythm, not something like for the party). We could have even got Decibel(the band behind the famous Naagin - The Lady Cobra).
As i entered the dance floor, i could see the dance floor.The ambience was completely black, with seating arrangement on both sides of the dance floor. Just opposite to the dance floor was the bar, with only a few mocktails and beer being served(cuz we're college guys, right !).
I arrived at elevate a bit late(the party started at 12:30pm while i reached at 2, and went out when the party was over at 5). During those three hours, i danced, and enjoyed every bit(even though i couldn't even have thought at 11 that i'll be there). The whole thing was completely unplanned for me.
Although this was one of the most biggest pubs in India, i found it not as big as i had expected(even though i accept that it was one hell of a place...it simply rocked). The entry ticket was pretty costly(compared to other pubs) at Rs650 an entry for one, including unlimited snacks and mocktails. Usually the entry starts from Rs1100 for a couple and goes till Rs2100(to what i know). This price list soars terrificly during the party season like New Years Eve, andz so.
At the end, i can say that i enjoyed a damn lot, and i'll be back there soon to sweat a lot more than i did this time.
