Google bought Feedburner for $100 Million

According to Feedburner website, Google had bought the leading RSS management company Feedburner for around $100 Million all cash deal. Feedburner was founded in 2003 and this buyout represents the increased usage of RSS to read blogs by most of us. Feedburner currently boasts of 422,717 publishers who in turn burned about 721,074 feeds.

While some people prefer the community feeling via the comments and the interaction provided by Blogs by visiting the site, some others prefer the comforts of keeping themselves updated through their RSS readers.

Most Bloggers depend on Ads for revenue and RSS effectively eliminates any ads from being shown. Google recognizes this and this deal represents their desire to move in monetizing the RSS feeds via their AdSense or recently acquired DoubleClick.

Tips for choosing a domain name

Choosing a domain names may seem like a simple task, unfortunately it is not always a simple as you would like it to be. They are a few rules you can use to avoid some of the hassle and frustration of registering a domain name.
The first rule is better the devil you know. This relates to domain registrars, in my experience it is best to stick with a domain registrar that you know. You will avoid the uncertainty of a new registration process and keeping all of your domains under one roof is much more convenient. I would only suggest trying a new registrar if you have a good recommendation from someone you trust.
Keep it short and simple. The more characters your domain name has the more a potential visitor has to type which means there is a greater chance of mistyping. Although it is unlikely you will be able to find a 3,4 or even 5 letter dot com domain you can still find or invent a catchy domain name with few letters.
Make it easy to say and easy to understand. It's all very well being clever and creating a domain that is a play on words but if it is too clever you could be saving up trouble for yourself. Domain names that are complicated of sound like other words can be difficult to pronounce let alone type in correctly.
Avoid plural versions of names if the non plural is taken. Better still use a domain name the does not have a plural version.If you register the non plural version make sure the plural version is available.
Get a dot com if you can. This is the best known extension and most easily remembered. If you type in a domain name into your browser without the extension it will assume it is a dot com and try to find that site.

KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR STOP:0X0000007A (0XC03E12A4,0XC000000E,0XF84A94A1,0X0C08F860)

I got this error in my laptop. Whenever I on my laptop after few mintues I get the error as mentioned below.

KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERRORSTOP:0X0000007A (0XC03E12A4,0XC000000E,0XF84A94A1,0X0C08F860)

As usual I googled for a solution to settle this problem. Few sites gave me few suggestions to solve this problem. But none worked out for me. But most of the sites gave an idea that this error is due to either hard disk problem or memory problem. So first I ran the chkdsk by booting the laptop using Windows XP cd and went to repair mode.

The report shows no error in the hard disk. Now I want to check the memory of my laptop. So I download the software named Memtest86 An advanced Memory Diagnostic tool. I download the Prebuit ISO format and made a bootable CD using the Nero Burn software. I used the CD to boot my PC and run the memory diagnostic test to run whole day and check all the memory blocks. Finally my problem is settled and now my laptop is working fine.
