Well, I was searching for some technical support related jokes and just then I noticed that there was a website which was marked as Unsafe by Google, however, on the other hand the SiteAdvisor plugin by Mcafee was suggesting that the website is quite safe to visit.

Now, on which service you would have trusted. Will it be Google or Mcafee?

Google has suggested its adsense publishers to stop using any traffic generation programs and have suggested that to build the traffic the natural way and that will help them more because a traffic generation program may lead into false clicks on those adsense units and that in turn lead to banning of your adsense account!

Instead here are few articles which highlights the ways through which you’ll be able to build traffic and that too without taking the trouble of joining any traffic generation program :

1. How to market your blog in 2007.
2. How to generate free traffic to your blog.
3. 30 Traffic Generation Tips.

I’m sure that these three articles have got all the tips and tricks and one has to just apply the brain and use them to make sure that they work too. Even, I believe that the traffic which comes through any traffic generation program is of no use at all as they are not actual reader but they are the ones who are looking for traffic for their own website and the chances are they’ll not read what you have at your website.

What do you think that the suggestion given by Google and me is correct or not ? Do you really think that traffic generation programs are of any use at all ?

Well, most of the techies know about Skype. However, there is a big section which is new to the internet and still doesn’t know about this great software. Well, Skype is a Peer to peer internet telephoney network which was founded by Niklas Zennstorm and Janus Friis. And later Skype was acquired by Ebay Inc. With the help of skype users can make calls to other skype users for free and that too at a great voice quality and there are other services which lets you make calls to landlines and mobile phones at very cheap rates. Apart from that, it is a great messenger and full of features. Here comes the full review….

PROS of Skype :

1. Voice Clarity : Skype has got amazing voice clarity and with a decent internet connection (It works sweetly @ 128 KBPS too!), one can easily speak to other person and that too without any lag. And one can only explain the clarity of the voice, once they actually use it. The reason for so much clarity is that they’ve developed a Peer 2 peer technology which makes sure that even if the connection is slow, it will be able to provide better voice to the slow internet users.

2. Ease of use : Skype has got a great interface, which makes it quite simple to use. It has self explanatory features and even new users will not find it difficult to use. They have got good help resource and thus anyone finding it difficult, then they can easily refer to the help too. But, believe me you’ll hardly check the help section.

3. Various call features : Skype has got various call features and lets you make conference calls and even lets you receive calls as well, through SkypeIN service (however, it is a paid feature). The calls rates to normal landlines and mobile phones are way less than normal telephone rates and one can save loads and loads of money with help of Skype. Voice mail service allows it to become a direct alternative to the regular telephone.

4. Various Plugins : Skype is flexible enough and it allows third party developers to create plugins for skype and add additional functionalities in this wonderful program. This is certainly helpful as there are many developers around, who create plugins which Skype thought were of not very use.

5. Full of features, video functionality etc. : Skype has got all the features of a messenger and thus anyone can make use of not only the voice but the text option is also available. Video calls are also possible and configuration of webcam is quite simple. All the chats are encrypted, so from the security point of view as well, it is good.

6. Available for all OS : Skype is just not available for windows, it is available for Linux & Mac too. Apart from that various mobile based OS versions are available and thus it allows users to stay on skype, even if they are not using their computer and this flexibility allows users to stay with skype at almost all the times.

Alright, I was not one of the bloggers who wrote about what eventually turned into an April Fool Day’s joke. The joke was that Google was saying that they’ll print off your emails on paper and will hand it over to you at a specified address.

But, it seems that it can be a possibility that we may get these kind of services in future. If not on paper, atleast it seems that Google is interested in giving away the backup of emails on CD and I’m sure that after listening to lot of buzz about Google disabling many Gmail accounts, you’ll love to get the backup done for you.

Atleast, I’ll love to have my Gmail account backed up on a CD and shipped to me as my Gmail account has already crossed 50 % of the space and I would love to have all those important emails at a safe place with me. What about you, so how much space you are using of your Gmail account and that would you like any functionality like that or not?
