Being the biggest continent in this world and having the mostly populated countries like China  and India, it is no big surprise in holding that position.

Google Reader !!

February 14, 2008 at 7:07 am · Posted On Me MySelf, Web 2.0, Technology · · 1 Comment

After a span of two years, I jumped last week from Bloglines to Google Reader. I was using Bloglines for more than three years from now.

The most attractive features of the Google Reader are :

  • The publish and link it to the blog. This can be done on the basis of selective posts. Check out the Nice Once to read bar on the right of my blog.
  • You can automatically see your contact published articles in the same Interface.
  • I love their technique of loading post by post while reading.

Gazzag.com - Social Networking

November 4, 2006 at 1:00 am · Posted On Web 2.0 · · Comments

I was a very late entrant of using Orkut.com. Lately I developed a liking towards the site and the usability of the site.

A couple of weeks before I got an invitation from one of my friend for Gazaag.com
which I don’t want to join, since I felt “let me have all my community at Orkut“. At that point too, I want to try the site and I went in and was not that usable. Today I got a lot more of invitation and thought of going and creating an account there. I really searched around the site for half an hour to find out a place where I can approve my invitation from my friends. It is only a word “Approve” on the whole welcome landing page which does not capture my attention.  The site was absolutely not usable.

With a lot of adds around the important places and the content that need to be highlighted is not at all done. I don’t have any intention now and in future to add my friends to this site.

These guys really need change their user interface to capture more attention to the site.

Cheers - Ranjith
