I am reading the times of india of april 4, suddenly i seen a news that is “soon, you may have 11 digit mobile numbers”. This is just a man to man news but mobile numbers will be upgraded to 11 digit soon in india.
The Department of Telecom (DoT) wants to upgrade the numbering system for mobile users because India has reportedly added 10.81 million mobile subscribers in December 2008. and that is huge number of subscriber.
“The TEC (Telecom Engineering Centre, DoT’s technical arm) has recommended the new numbering plan that has been forwarded to the government for the final decision,” the official said.
When new numbering system will be upgraded then the subscriber may have to face some problems initially. but the telecom officer says “The infrastructure is ready and this should be implemented within two years. The change, however, will be in the software only and it will not take more than a month to upgrade the changes”
check full story on times of india
So india ready for the next 1 digit more…………………

I just surfing with internet explorer 6, but so many sites are not fully supported by IE6. But I can not install IE7 because I have also Firefox. So if you want to run IE7 without installing it there is a trick
To run Internet Explorer 7, you need Windows XP SP2.
Step 1
Download Internet Explorer 7 (14.8 MB). You could also download IE7 from File Hippo.
Step 2
Download the IE7 Standalone archive created by Jon Galloway.
Step 3
Create a new folder IE7 in Program Files, copy the IE7 setup file and extract the files from the archive downloaded at Step 2.

Files with archive
Step 4
Run the file IE7 Standalone Setup.bat and click OK to install xmllitesetup.exe, an update necessary so that IE7 has tabs.
Step 5
Create a shortcut on the desktop to the file IE7.bat. Change the icon of the shortcut to one from IE7’s iexplore.exe.

IE6 + Ie7
Now you have a standalone Internet Explorer 7 that runs along with Internet Explorer 6. You can launch IE7 from the shortcut you’ve created on the desktop. Note that not all the features will work well and this standalone installation is recommended only for developers that want to test IE7, but also need Internet Explorer 6.
More about this setup from Jon Galloway.

The robots.txt file is a text file containing commands to the engine crawlers research to clarify their pages who may or may not be indexed. Thus any search engine began its exploration of a website seeking robots.txt at the root of the site.
first of all you have to understand the format of robots.txt
The robots.txt (written in lower case and plural) is an ASCII file that are at the root of the site and may contain the following commands:
- User-Agent: allows you to specify the robot affected by the following guidelines.
- The value means “all search engines”.
- Disallow: allows you to specify the pages to exclude from indexing. Each page or path to exclude must be on a line at hand and must begin with. The value / sole means “all pages.”
The robots.txt file should contain no blank line!
Now if you want to stop search engine to access your specific private file then you have to write the following code in robots.txt-
- Exclusion of single page-
User-Agent: *
Disallow: / directory / path / page.html
- stop several pages to crawl-
User-Agent: *
Disallow: / directory / path / page.html
Disallow: / repertoire/chemin/page2.html
Disallow: / repertoire/chemin/page3.html
- Exclusion of all pages of a directory and its subfolders-
User-Agent: *
Disallow: / directory /
User-Agent: *
Disallow: /
- To block files of a specific file type (for example, .gif)
User-agent: Googlebot
Disallow: /*.gif$
Now how to exclude all other BOT except Google, MSN, Yahoo? just type following simple code to your robots.txt and enjoy….
User-agent: Googlebot
User-agent: Slurp
User-agent: msnbot
User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*
User-agent: Googlebot-Image
User-agent: Yahoo-MMCrawler
Disallow:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
With .htaccess file-
Yes, you can block the BOT by ip’s in .htaccess
For example, if the BOT has ip: 66.249.71.xxx
The command in .htaccess will be:
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from 66.249.71.xxx
allow from all
</Limit>
