Speed up gmail

May 5th, 2008 by admin | No Comments »

I never thought that I will ever worry about speeding up gmail. It has always been faster than I ever needed. However past few days I am at my native place. I have been accessing the internet through a reliance netconnect card. And unfortunately this has been painstakingly slow at the best and plain dead at the worst :(

The frustration of waiting forever to read my emails led me to search for ways to speed up my gmail. Here are a few steps that I have been using to speed up gmail.

Avoid automatic browser check by using this url http://mail.google.com/mail/?nocheckbrowser

You can use the mobile version of gmail at http://mail.google.com/mail/x/cm6v0×0kvrf5-/?f=1 Since it is designed for mobiles, it is really fast

or you can use the html version of gmail at http://mail.google.com/mail/h/5rfigl1ekf0l/?zy=f&f=1

Microsoft withdraws its bid for yahoo

May 3rd, 2008 by admin | 1 Comment »

Microsoft has withdrawn its bid for yahoo. Yahoo killed the deal by not accepting microsoft’s offer even after they increased the bid by additional $5 billion. See the press release here. Contrary to popular belief, microsoft decided not to go the hostile way as that would have led to serious value erosion in yahoo.

In a letter to microsoft employees
, steve ballmer has outlined microsoft’s strategy going forward. It basically involves 3 components
· Deliver on the basics. We will continue to improve search relevance and build out our ad platform.

· Change the game through innovation. We will expand investments in engineering and deliver transformative tools and Web experiences.

· Expand our global scale and focus. We will pursue partnerships and investments to realize the competitive advantages that come with scale.

There was a significant increase in yahoo’s share price in anticipation of the acquisition. There will be blood on the street on monday, once the trading resumes.

Recent pagerank update

May 1st, 2008 by admin | 3 Comments »

There has been a pagerank update by google recently. Unfortunately binaryday.com has suffered a drop in pagerank from 4 to 3. Couple of other blogs i.e abhisays.com and bishtblogs.net have undergone a similar drop in the pagerank. I am not sure if google has decreased the pagerank of blogs across the board or there is something wrong with binaryday itself.
