Found this one in broadband forum. By Abhiroop….

Update: It does work. I’ve been using it for two weeks now and have no problems at all.

My favorite Firefox Theme

One of my favorite Firefox theme is Nasa Night Launch. I like this theme very much because of the black look it has which is kind of unique from the other black themes like Pitch dark and Redshift(firefox 2 only).

Other favourite addons include Walnut ,Noia 2.0 extreme.

Upgraded to Firefox 3.0

After a long wait I have finally upgraded my firefox and switched to version 3.0.

Almost all the addons I use are now working fine with Firefox 3 and I am happy with its working.

Magic Video Convertor – A Good Video Conversion Software

I checked out Magic Video convertor  whose trial version I had got a week before and after a week of using the software I admit that it is the best video conversion software available.

Magic Video Convertor supports a variety of input as well as output formats and at $20 it is a good value for money. Do check the 30 day trial version here and try it for yourself.

Politician Nicknames

Found a very funny post written by Ramesh Srivats. Do check it out

CSO : That can be done sir. Why nicknames?

MS : It’s easier to remember them that way. I want Lalu stored as “fodder of the nation”, Arjun Singh as “reservation counter”, Ramadoss as “banned-it king” and so on.

Night Unlimited on BSNL

When I changed my broadband plan, I had loads of ideas about the stuff I download in my night unlimited plan from 2am to 8am. But even half of that is not accomplished since my college has started which a bit to far from my home. So I have to leave home early in the morning at 7am. So the only time I get to download is from 5.30 am to 7am.

Even though the speed is very high, parallel downloads only take 500 to 600 MB average per day which is very less than my expectation. My record was 3 GB when I downloaded from 2 am to 7am. I am trying to sleep early everyday so that I can get up early to download now.

Currently I am downloading  the Naruto Cartoon series whose season ended just a month back in cartoon network and I don’t have enough patience to wait for a new season.

BSNL Plan change from Home 250 to Home 500C – 2

My plan change was supposed to change on today in the morning when I checked my account usage in Dataone site, I was pretty much shocked to see that the current plan was till Home 250.
So I called the Telephone Exchanged and asked the JE about the when the change of the plan is going to take place. He asked me to call 1957 ( which I later knew that was the Customer Care number for the Broadband enquiries and complaints ) and ask them. So I called the number and he guy in the Customer care replied that the Plan Change was going to take place in the evening and I will have to wait till then.

In the evening the plan was updated and shifted to the 500c plan. Take a look at the screenshot.

Plan Change from BSNL Broadband plan Home 250 to Home 500C

For sometime now, I am not happy with the 1GB free bandwidth that is available with the HOME 250 plan of BSNL Broadband. This is because my aunt sends the photos of my cousin via E-mail and it takes a lot of bandwidth to download them. ( It took around 150MB to download around 60 photos yesterday and nowadays digital cameras have high resolution and it affects the file size very much.)

So I decided to change my broadband plan from Home250 to Home500C. Home 500C is a combo plan which changes the broadband plan as well as the existing phone plan. For Rs.500 a month we get 1.5GB free bandwidth, 175 free calls and the landline plan will be shifted to the OneIndia Plan. I think it is advantageous than the previous plan in which we had only 125 calls free and the plan rent was Rs.250.

I have submitted a written application in the Telephone Exchange asking for a plan change from the Home 250 to Home 500C. They have also told me that the plan change will take effect from the first of next month.

Firefox 3 supports .mht format

Actually Firefox 3 still does not support the.mht format but there is an addon called Unmht that can help to save the webpages in the .mht ( webarchive) Format.

I was using the Mozilla Archive Format is the Firefox 2 but when Firefox 3 was relesed I decided to stay in Firefox 2 since I did not have a supported webarchive addon. ( Also there were some other addons which were not compatible ).

I first found out about this addon on the Digital Inspiration and in this post.

Scribefire Updated again with more major fixes.

Lot of bug fixes have taken place in this version mainly the Delicious Bookmarks auto-login feature which had several problems is fixed in this version.

Also I had a lot of confusion about the enable ping thing which when checked options were not not visible and when unchecked options were visible. Even that is fixed in this issue.

Image width limitation preference is also added.
