What if the Internet giants collapse?

Hi friends,
Today I am onto an interesting discussion. The subject is "What if the Internet giants are collapsed?"!
As you all know we the 'coach potatoes' are immensely dependent on the Internet. Imagine that one day all these sites are closed or they stop their services? If the Internet giants close all their services at once, what would be the impact. Most of the businesses in this century are completely or partially dependent on the INTERNET!

On a morning when you wake up you see that all the services provided by Yahoo, Google and Microsoft are stopped (for an example)! Your emails, personal data, online file storage and much more are interrupted. How would you react? Its unimaginable! This shows the intensity of our dependence on such services. There are people who depend the Internet even for food, which is one of the basic necessities. The world would be totally struck if this destruction happens!

I did not mean that this would happen, but it can happen at any point of time. It is not a magical system. It is just another face of technology! I have posted this post to change ourselves from the over dependence on such technologies.

In the earlier times people had a habit of reading books for getting information, but now it has all changed. Even if a bubble gum is stuck on our hair, we surf the Internet for getting rid of it, but in the past the elder ones had some common remedies for all this. We should understand that every invention and technology has its own advantages and disadvantages. Surfing the Internet saves a lot of time, I agree but we should not go away from some of the basic qualities of man.

Let us dream for a practical world!

Misusing Blogger Addresses

Hi readers,

Today I am onto a very sad issue faced by the bloggers around the world. As you all know blogger is a free blogging platform, which is utilized by millions of people. Most of the "hot" addresses in blogger have been already registered, this is a happy news, but most of them are not using the addresses well and some of them don't even touch it.


As you all know the Fifa World Cup 2010 is approaching, less than a month left. There are many bloggers around the world trying to blog about the world's greatest football tournament. But the sad side is that, there aren't any suitable blog addresses available.


For example some of the misused blog addresses based on Fifa World Cup are:

If these blog addresses are used by deserved bloggers, lots and lots of latest Fifa World Cup buzz would have bashed into the internet. But all these addresses are just wasted. 


Why cant Google have a look on the misused blogger addresses? Why cant they remove these kind of misused registrations?  These type of misused addresses are there in all groups of addresses. Eg: technology, gadgets, nature, mankind, science etc etc.


I hereby request Google to take necessary steps on this issue and help the blogging community.

Yahoo CEO: "Google Is Going To Have A Problem"



Dear readers,
Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz told Jonathan Fildes, "Google is going to have a problem because Google is only known for search.  It is only half our business; it's 99.9% of their business.  They've got to find other things to do."

Do you think that this statement is correct? Post your ideas and stand as comments!

Blog4Info Comments on these words:
According to Wikipedia (Recognized encyclopedia): The revenue of Yahoo US$6.460 billion (2009), which has fallen down these days, where as Google's revenue is US$23.651 billion (2009), which has risen these days. 

So that the statement that Yahoo is more stable is irrelevant. 
And according to Alexa: Google has traffic rank of "1" and Yahoo has traffic rank of "4". 

Hope you got a clear picture of the situation!
