This might be my last post of the year, and I think google has given us a new year gift today by updating PR, I was expecting the update on 1st Jan 2009, but yeah.. They made it today 
I am not happy nor sad, the update was mediocre, Web-Freak is still PR3, Esidyo.com is PR2 and Nonsenseplanet.com is PR1.. This might also be my last post before my exams

Bye! 
Only a few days after the launch of its new task manager, Gmail has introduced a new feature allowing users to send free SMS messages through its integrated Chat. To activate the feature, visit the Gmail Labs page and scroll down until you see the appropriate listing (you may also want to activate a few of the other nifty features while you’re at it).
To send a message, just type a phone number into the search box at the top of the chat window on the left side of the Gmail interface, and hit ‘Send SMS’. Numbers can be associated with contact names so you don’t have to keep manually entering them. Recipients of these messages can respond by simply hitting ‘reply’ on their cell phones to send their own SMS message (Gmail ties a unique phone number with each of your contacts).
According to the Gmail blog post
, the site is currently testing out the service with US phones only for now (messages can be sent from abroad, they just need to be directed at a US phone).
Gmail first toyed around with the feature in October, but wound up pulling it from Labs for a few weeks because of a number of glitches. This time, it seems like it’s here to stay.
This isn’t by any means the first chat service to offer free SMS messaging – major chat networks like AIM have been doing this for years. But it’s a handy feature, especially for the many people who use Gmail all day long.

So, I have a new category on my blog now called “FW” which Represents “FREAKING WEBSITES”
Cool?
Ok, so we get our first freaking website here, and it is CatchYoutube.com
This is the best website for downloading youtube videos to a format of your choice, Really!
The home page: NOT BAD
Now we enter a video URL and see what happens!
So, I took this video as it was featured and was on the home page of YouTube..
And, Remember that while entering the link, extensions like in.youtube.com or sg.youtube.com , you have to remove the in, sg etc and the URL should be only youtube.com/video..
Now, I enter the link and choose the file as MP4 for my iPod
After I click, convert & download.. Within few or I must say, less than few seconds, I get the download link!
I must admit, it was really cool to use catchyoutube.com and the download speed I was getting was also max!
I would recommend this to all Youtube lovers who love to keep their videos in their phones/pc’s/ipods!
Thanks for the read!
Sangeeta Singhvi used two ICICI Bank credit cards to purchase a plasma TV from Vijay Sales in Mumbai . Since her credit limit was Rs 1 lakh (Rs 100,000), she and her husband swiped their individual gold cards to purchase the fabulous Rs 2 lakh (Rs 200,000) set.
When their November credit card statements came, they were pleasantly surprised. The plasma TV cost them only Rs 1.9 lakh (Rs 190,000). In other words, they got a handsome discount of Rs 10,000.
This is because ICICI Bank is offering a 5 per cent cash discount to its credit and debit card holders on purchases of Rs 2,000 or more. Under this special festival scheme — open till December 31 — customers can get a maximum refund of Rs 5,000 per card.
Thrilled by the discount, Sangeeta is planning to use her ICICI Bank debit card, her Big Bazaar ICICI Bank co-branded card and her salary-account debit card to furnish her new flat!
ICICI Bank, which launched the scheme from October, is not alone in this, though. Citibank, too, offers a cash back card.
HSBC had a scheme which closed on November 30. It offered a cash discount of 10 per cent on the three highest transactions recorded during October and November.
To avail of the HSBC scheme, the cardholder needed to register with the bank first — otherwise no purchase counted. What’s more, not all purchases swiped against the credit card qualified for the cash back.
It was valid only purchase made at department stores, spends on apparel, consumer durables, jewellery, watches, electronic goods and leather items. This means all those expensive luncheons did not qualify, but grocery items amounting to at least Rs 2,000 fit the bill.
So why are banks doing this? The reason is not hard to find. While banks have been issuing millions of credit and debit cards, not all have been activated, and the cost involved in issuing a single plastic card run into hundreds of rupees.
“The idea behind the scheme is to encourage usage of cards, which otherwise costs banks a lot of money,” says V Vaidyanathan, senior general manager and head, retail products, ICICI Bank.
But this is the first time that card issuing banks are rewarding their customers with cash. The standard rewards are based on a point system, which could be “encashed” for goods and services.
Citibank has an edge over others in that in its scheme there is no time limit or cap on amount. The scheme, introduced late in November, is applicable to all purchases. However, the catch is that one needs to actually apply for a cash-back card.
The card member gets one per cent cash back irrespective of the category of spend. Beyond that, the level of cash-back changes with the expenditure.
For instance, when Rahul Mehta swiped his Citibank cash-back card to buy medicine, he got back 5 per cent in his monthly card statement. When he paid his mobile and other utility bills, the degree of discount was less at 3 per cent.
The card also has overseas incentives: If one withdraws cash when abroad from an international ATM, one gets a 4 per cent cash -back. Any purchases made abroad leads to a 2 per cent cash-back.
So how are banks funding this?
“It’s coming from the promotions budget,” says Vaidyanathan of ICICI Bank. “The idea is once the customer is hooked into using the card, he’s bound to continue with or without the scheme.”
Check the fine print:

Today, I just went to my StatCounter and saw the Browser shares, Few days back I had posted about the Browser shares of Matt Cutts.
This is what the statistics looked like:
So we see that 69.00% are on Firefox 3.0
8.40% are still on FireFox 2.0, and IE is just 6.40% (Which is really bad)
Also to see that Google Chrome is coming up as it is used more than Opera now!
The Firefox version 3.1 is used only 0.20% by my visitors.
So we have a clean winner here
