         <title>[Chennai OCC] Require a publisher for getting our Quiz book published</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:Comment:31116</link>
         <description>Hi Karthik,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Publishing a book is a good idea. But that is a normal thing. How about creating a Website specially for quiz, with interactive modules. So that schools can create accounts and ask their students to login. So this is much more than your blog. If you are interested please let me know we can do that for you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Holiday Season upon America</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:31113</link>
         <description>Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons are already upon us in the United States. This is a time of year where there is an unusual thing occuring. Productivity slips as people become more oriented towards family, friends and celebration. Spending goes up, and companies try to close out their end of year budgets. This is one of the subtle observations you can make at large companies. They are more willing to purchase trial, test or laboratory products at this point in the year than any other. It is a point where a new prototype can slip in the back door. Companies trying to spend their last dollars, but don't want to impact the organization at a time when everyone is distracted. This allows a product entry point that doesn't exist at any other time in the year.</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Product Pricing</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:31105</link>
         <description>One of the most common but difficult questions to answer is product pricing. For sometime, all of us selling software as a service would have debated on fixed price, differential pricing, having a walk away price and a margin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I recently read this interesting article in a community I subscribe to and thought will be useful for all the members in this forum..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The article itself is a review of the book &lt;u&gt;&quot;Don't just roll the dice:A usefully short guide to software pricing&quot; by Neil Davidson.&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The home truths the book cronicles may not all be new to some of us, but helps bring home the truth in pricing: that we need to be aware of the market segment, the product differentiator and our own sustaining power. And It is good to have more than one price point. The way we perceive the benefits of our product and the way a customer sees is the point where the price differentiation begin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Delhi OCC] Beta testers wanted for BrainNook: the first syllabus-based, educational, virtual world for children</title>
         <link>http://occdelhi.ning.com/xn/detail/2090610:Topic:4131</link>
         <description>BrainNook is the first syllabus-based, educational, virtual world for children. It consists of educational games closely matched to the NCERT syllabus (used in CBSE schools all over India), embedded within colourful virtual worlds. Children take on the role of an alien while exploring these virtual worlds and collecting &quot;stars&quot; by playing games. All the games in BrainNook are based on the NCERT Mathematics and English Grammar syllabus for Standards 4 and 5, and develop skills such as numeracy, literacy, reasoning, memorization, dexterity, and computer proficiency.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our current release is aimed at 9 and 10 year old children.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
BrainNook is in private beta and I wanted to open it up to the OpenCoffee Club community. We are looking for beta testers who are parents of children in the age group 8-11, or have been in the past. :-) You should show the product to at least one child in this age group, and optionally play it yourself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After you finish playing it, you can send me your feedback by email (abhi@nunook.com), or reply to this thread. Some of the questions we would like to get answered are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. What did you find confusing? Were there times when you weren't sure what to do next?&lt;br /&gt;
2. How was the difficulty level of the games?&lt;br /&gt;
3. What is the weakest part of the experience?&lt;br /&gt;
4. What is the strongest part?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you would like to be a beta tester for BrainNook, send me an email at abhi@nunook.com or reply to this thread with your email address. I'll get back to you with a beta login.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

         <description>Hi Folks, &lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;I have an extra magicjack which I'd ordered for my parents, but we don't &lt;br&gt; need it anymore. The subscriptions is already 2-3 months old, so I'm willing &lt;br&gt; to pro-rate off that many months from the actual cost and sell it to someone &lt;br&gt; who could do with a VOIP based US number. &lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;The number I have to give away is a 404-652-xxxx number based [Atlanta].</description>

         <description>Hi, &lt;br&gt; Which are recommended books to get started on learning accounting related &lt;br&gt; laws and other similar things. Off course I understand everything can not be &lt;br&gt; learnt in limited time, but its at least good to understand few things. &lt;br&gt; Perhaps some one from accounting background can help me get started on this?</description>

         <description>Hi &lt;br&gt; One of my relatives is looking to start a small restaurant. He is &lt;br&gt; hardworking and is interested in this domain. He is looking for people who &lt;br&gt; have worked in this domain in the past and are willing to be partners. This &lt;br&gt; is planned to be a very low initial funding startup since he does not have &lt;br&gt; too much to invest but is going to be working full time in this.</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] The Stigma of being an Entrepreneur</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:30667</link>
         <description>I am just in a mood to reminisce and been having some maudlin thoughts that I absolutely had to pen!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I remember a while ago an elderly gentleman (and a family friend) was pleasantly enquiring about us - how the kids are doing, how is my work and our general well being. When asking about work, he asked if we were still doing our own &quot;stuff&quot; . To his mind people in business were those who did not manage to snag a job.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For your talent and creativity you could have become an AVP at TCS by now, he admonished me. Instead you are struggling and doing all this by yourself. I did not know whether to be annoyed or amused - annoyed that he thinks I am wasting my time and amused as he thinks the work at any of the corporates would be all frills and feathers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I could not help but think that for all the hype about having the guts to take your own course there is still a stigma around being an entrepreneur. In some circles it is tantamount to being selfish - that the entrepreneur has thought only about himself/herself and not really provided for the financial security of the family (especially if he/she is a first generation entrepreneur who takes the plunge without having a day job as a cushion). If someone decides to take the plunge after being in the corporate world for sometime, earning a decent salary, having a tidy investment tucked away, even then he is termed a risk taker to fret away all his savings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When will being an entrepreneur be considered an investment. it is a legacy a parent can leave for his child to carry on. Or it will be a learning that can teach valuable lessons that are beyond any degrees.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are somethings money can't buy and to me the sprit of entrepreneurship is priceless!</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] How can we protect start ups from failing...?</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:30652</link>
         <description>I recently encountered a startling statistic that 90% of businesses that start up either close down or change hands within 1000 days. It is said that acid test for any start up is the first 1000 days (more crucial first 500 days...). The first 500 days is the time when reality hits wildly in the face and all ambitions start crashing one by one. The desperation to hold on, suffocation to escape puts great test on the zeal, passion of any entrepreneur.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, good news is that if we hold on the acid test &amp;amp; show to inner self strenght to face rough winds start ups come out surviving. Good news is patience always pays off. Each one of us face challenges of various type and magnitude in first 1000 days... can any one share their experiences and how they have overcome them...?</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Social Media Network and serious business</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:30602</link>
         <description>The onslaught of the social media and networking sites has caught us all in a virtual web where we feel connected only when we chat, send messages not more than 140 characters and generally feel better only when we update our status on these sites. The height of it was when one of my friends (whom I got back in touch after a long time) had to cancel our face to face meeting as he wanted to update his status on facebook and twitter that he has got back in touch with his schoolmate after 17 years! dig that!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok. Now to the matter at hand. when we see really silly updates on these sites like &quot;Its a great Monday and I am just having my morning tea&quot; we really think if these sites are designed with frivolous in mind and are of no significance to the serious business minded beings?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I beg to differ. Just as how we can reconnect with long lost friends and keep up with our friends all over the world, these sites are an easy and cost effective way to spread the message across about our business.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My theory is, like everything else we need to project the ideal image of our company in these sites as well. Any events or key news featuring our company/products can be quickly messaged here. This is a great platform as we do not need extraordinary writing skills - just keeping the message short, simple and straight would suffice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What does it do: we usually think our gang of friends is clued into our business. Maybe at a peripheral level they are. But this will be a great way to keep them updated on the happenings on the business front as well. Who knows you may be doing something your friend on Facebook was looking out for!!&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Pune OCC] What to Do or Not Do in Backing up Your Data</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:21145</link>
         <description>Even though backing up our data is extremely important, we often neglect it. Why? Well, because it’s just another thing you know you have to do, but you just “don’t have time” for. Believe me, once your computer crashes, you’re done. Worries? Multiplied and also, a lot of important data lost. I know it’s easier to just say “Backup? Oh, I’ll do it tomorrow, it’s not such a big a deal” Yeah, sure. And tomorrow? You’ll do it the next day? And then? Computer boom! And you’re like “If I had known this would happen I would have backed up my data”. I bet you would have. We don’t know if or when will it happen, but when it does we have to be prepared.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dos. OK, well first of all and also the most important thing of all- back up your data! You don’t have to back up all of it, just the vital data, data that is indispensable to you. Just think what losing it would do to you. Second, use data storages carefully. If you use offline means, like CDs, DVDs, external hard drives, after you get your data on them, put them in a safe place. Then, if you don’t have safe room, make some: put the CDs in a dry, hard to reach for others, place. Third, every week or so, update your data storages. Add the new irreplaceable files so you don’t have to think about the risk of losing them. This is really a life saver.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dos-part 2. A very good storage for your data is online storage with a very good password. It’s safer than offline storages and you can get to your data anytime from anywhere. Whatever way of backing up you choose is good if you use it and better, if you know how to use it. Anyone with basic computer skills can do it. Also, keep in mind that you need an Internet connection if you want tot use online backup. Another good tip would be to make a copy of the data you store and keep it in a different place. For example, if you have something stored on a CD, make a copy of that CD. Keep one CD at home and one at work so you’re covered.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dos-part 3. The best way to store your data is to have both online and offline storages. This is the most secure way, but it is a bit more expensive. This is because if something happens to your PC, you have your CDs, DVDs, memory sticks. And if something happens to those to, you have your files copied online and you can access them from elsewhere. But, if you consider &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/cornel-iakobcsuk/it-support/online-backup-and-why-do-we-need-it&quot;&gt;online backup&lt;/a&gt; a tad too pricy for your &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-security/&quot;&gt;security&lt;/a&gt;, then try out just the offline methods. Only remember to have two copies kept in separate places. &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;Online backup&lt;/a&gt; saves you the time that you spend on backing up your data to offline means but it’s up to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Don’ts. The most important “don’t” is don’t forget to back up your data! Even though the computer is a revolutionary machine, it can be damaged, it can break. So don’t save your data only on the internal hard disk because you can lose it very easily. Don’t save your data on CDs and then put them wherever. They can easily get scratched and malfunction or not function at all. Don’t forget to backup your files every week or every day. It depends on the updates of the important data. Don’t forget your password to the online storage account because it may almost save your life one day. Don’t underestimate &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;data backup&lt;/a&gt;, disasters happen every day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It doesn’t matter if it’s your personal or your business computer. I bet you have files that you need and you would be devastated if they got lost. Pictures, account information, emails, address books and not the mention your business data which includes customer details, accounts and everything your business creates. I know, backing up your data is time consuming, but just think of the benefits you get from &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-security/&quot;&gt;securing you data&lt;/a&gt; and not desperately trying to recover it after a disaster. Wouldn’t it be easier to have everything you need just a click or an external hard drive away? Well, yes, it would and it would also save you from pulling your hair. Just in case.</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] If by Rudyard Kipling</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29934</link>
         <description>This is a poem that I totally love. I realised early on that it is impossible to have a go at it all at once. I just take it one line at a time and count the times when i can live it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PS: it was written by Kipling when he was 31. The lines &quot; if you can meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two imposters just the same&quot; is written on the wall of the center court of the Wimbeldon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
_________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you can keep your head when all about you&lt;br /&gt;
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;&lt;br /&gt;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,&lt;br /&gt;
But make allowance for their doubting too;&lt;br /&gt;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,&lt;br /&gt;
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,&lt;br /&gt;
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,&lt;br /&gt;
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;&lt;br /&gt;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;&lt;br /&gt;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster&lt;br /&gt;
And treat those two imposters just the same;&lt;br /&gt;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken&lt;br /&gt;
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,&lt;br /&gt;
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,&lt;br /&gt;
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings&lt;br /&gt;
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,&lt;br /&gt;
And lose, and start again at your beginnings&lt;br /&gt;
And never breath a word about your loss;&lt;br /&gt;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew&lt;br /&gt;
To serve your turn long after they are gone,&lt;br /&gt;
And so hold on when there is nothing in you&lt;br /&gt;
Except the Will which says to them: &quot;Hold on&quot;;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,&lt;br /&gt;
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;&lt;br /&gt;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;&lt;br /&gt;
If all men count with you, but none too much;&lt;br /&gt;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute&lt;br /&gt;
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -&lt;br /&gt;
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,&lt;br /&gt;
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Working for a living is a form of enterpreneurship</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29933</link>
         <description>it took this trip down under for me to start thinking that being employed is also a form of enterpreneurship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
there were 2 days of a marathon event we hosted for a client and the preparation took about a week when we all but camped at office.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We had our own scripts to chart and the freedom to design 2 days just the way we wanted it. After the initial resistance to freedom, I think we liberated our minds to think and think some more to make an intense 2 days of discussion of numbers, scope, validation and detailing of accounting services and procurement as much fun as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were of course dancing to an invisible piper, but I think even an entrepreneur is - if he is working on an idea he wants to sell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It made me think that being at work is may be finding the right job that you enjoy and also ensure that you are with people whom you want to be with.</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] All About Broadband Service and More</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:21087</link>
         <description>The easiest way to explain it is that broadband is the term used to define the channel between our computers and the internet. Nowadays, a connection to the internet is an absolute must because of the fact that this is the century of speed. If you want something, you want it good and fast. Any piece of information you need is just a “connect” click away. So why refuse it? You can browse through the internet, download anything you want, communicate with others easily. We have it here, where we need it and when we need it. So, let’s find out how does broadband work, what are it’s advantages and how to choose the right internet package for you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We can think of broadband as a class of communication channel that can carry 10 times more data than the regular phone lines. The wider is the bandwidth of the channel the faster can it send data. This channel comes to our homes through cables and lines set up by internet service providers. These providers have made it easier for us to have access to the web. Because of its’ large demand, a very large number of providers have emerged to fulfill our wishes. Whatever we need, it’s included in one of those special packages of theirs. But what’s that special about it? I guess it’s high time we talked about the advantages broadband has brought us and how advanced is it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, what’s the fuss? Well, just imagine that the simple fact that you can read this article lying comfortable in your bed while downloading the latest track from, I don’t know-Depeche Mode, is possible because of broadband. Oh, and just wait, 3, 2, 1…Done! You’re already listening to that track. Yeah, it’s a miracle. I bet you’ve never thought at it this way. It’s fast and provides better uninterrupted service. Remember that dial-up that made your phone busy and that made you pay trillions every month? Forget it! These days you can have unlimited access with the minimum of resources. You just have to decide what you need in order to get the best deal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What do you use your broadband connection for? If you have an online business and need internet all the time for checking that everything is going smoothly and also checking your email, communicating with your clients, then you need an unlimited &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-broadband/&quot;&gt;broadband&lt;/a&gt;. Also, if you use it for games, downloading music and videos, then you also need an unlimited connection as you’ll be a lot online and this way you save money. If you only use your &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-broadband/&quot;&gt;broadband service&lt;/a&gt; for checking emails in order to connect with other people then you should get a package in which you pay for what you use as you won’t be that much online.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Availability of the &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-broadband/&quot;&gt;internet service provider&lt;/a&gt;, connection speed and the download limit are the three things that tell you the kind of the performance the broadband connection offers. Also, the cost of all of this is not to be neglected. Most of the time we don’t have the internet usage we need or we pay too much for what we use. Availability depends of the network coverage in the area the provider has. Connection speed and download limit depends of course of the rates the provider demands. After you decide what your needs are, the next step is comparing the different packages of different service providers and choose the one that fits your budget best.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What have we learned? Using an internet connection makes you faster and more efficient. Also, you can find the best provider that offers a range of quality business broadband services in order for your business to be at its’ best. So, contact your &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; service company and get the best deal on broadband service. If you find a company that provides better deals, then change your current one. It’s not a crime. And also, don’t forget about other services like &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-security/&quot;&gt;it security&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;remote backup&lt;/a&gt;, online backup, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-disaster-recovery/&quot;&gt;disaster recovery&lt;/a&gt;, technical support. They might come in handy if you want your business to have the best chance in succeeding with fewer obstacles.</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] How to Benefit from a Learning Service</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:21086</link>
         <description>Working in the today’s world brings with itself the “you must know all that is new” thing in order to be good at your job as an individual and to be ahead of the competition as a business company. So, everyone knows that the best solution is online training. You learn what you need just by sitting at your desk and studying online. Companies need to keep their personnel trained and up to date with everything that’s new, especially IT skills that can only make them more efficient. It doesn’t matter what business you’re in as long as you have more knowledge about IT because this helps you do anything from marketing your company to run it better. You can do better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
IT classes are imperative if you want to have the most marketable skills and the best job or the most competitive company. Even though you as an individual or your employees can learn while completing tasks at the every day job, an IT training course would help brushing up some other vital skills. What to say about the new comers in the business world? Hurry up and get a spot on an IT training class or hire an &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company that has all these kind of services. First of all, you have to learn about IT. Then, think about the other things your company needs, like: &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-disaster-recovery/&quot;&gt;disaster recovery&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;remote backup&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-security/&quot;&gt;IT security&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/technical-support&quot;&gt;technical support&lt;/a&gt;. Yeah, you can have it all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About IT courses as an individual. Well, there are two ways to go on this particular thing: if you are too busy to go to an IT course, then you might try online training. Both are great, but if you have any questions, it’s easier to ask them face to face so that you can get the best answer. Now, think of what skills you want to get improved and what aspect of Information Technology you want to study. Most courses are technical and it may be very difficult if you don’t have a strong background in computers. So, maybe you need a basics course before a more complicated one. Also, get proper certification as today employers look for experience or a degree.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About IT courses as a company. Well, the best way is to hire a certified &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-companies/&quot;&gt;IT Support company&lt;/a&gt; that knows its’ way around this and can give you and your business the best options. Talking about this kind of training, you can get a personalized course and also the instructors are sent to the company itself to train your team. The best advantages are that you can train your whole team at one time and that you can either take it to the location where the IT Support company keeps the courses or get the instructors to your workplace. Also, the instructors are well prepared and use different methods which include presentations and IT training videos.&lt;br /&gt;
If you need a full training course for your team or want some advice about how to use a program or even need an IT induction course for your new starters, get qualified help. Whatever you require, a good IT Support company can provide you with the right training resources. Working with both their personnel and their preferred training consultants, they can offer you a vast range of courses to suit your needs and your budget. If the training is over your budget some IT companies give you the opportunity to share the costs with another company if you’re willing to share the course with it. You can be ahead of your competitors, so do your best. It’s that easy.</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] Let’s Talk About Server Monitoring</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:21084</link>
         <description>&lt;p&gt;Keeping things going nice and smooth is a 24 hour job depending on the online business you run. So you probably need a little help to keep it going. Some &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; doesn’t sound bad. It is difficult and time spending to always make sure that everything is well done and also keep in touch with contacts while constantly watching and monitoring your computer. You can say it’s even nerve wrecking because you’re always stressed out. But you’re not alone. You can think about &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/&quot;&gt;IT services&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;remote backup&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/cornel-iakobcsuk/it-support/changing-face-it-support-and-fresh-approach-little-fish&quot;&gt;IT security&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-disaster-recovery/&quot;&gt;disaster recovery&lt;/a&gt;. One of the best solutions for you and your business is server monitoring. You just have to look for the best.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Starting your own online business or company may have sounded like a good and simple idea at the beginning, but if you look at it now, your plate is overwhelming full. You have just discovered that while it may be easy to put a web site in place, it can be a great challenge to monitor exactly what's happening with that website. So, as I said, a web server monitoring watching out for your business is the best way to unload your plate and get the free time you’re wishing for.
Instead of being stuck watching the progress or problems that might happen to your webpage or server, you can call your contacts and keep in touch with your suppliers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/support-and-monitoring-services/littlefish-alert-server/&quot;&gt;Web server monitoring&lt;/a&gt; works in three different ways. So knowing what is best for your business you can choose between uptime monitoring, transactional monitoring or site audit. Uptime monitoring is the most basic of the web server monitoring and it’s specialized in checking your key objects, redirects, downtime and any potential problems. Transactional monitoring is ideal if your business consists of or deals with buying and selling products. Transactional monitoring includes uptime monitoring but it also includes monitoring shopping carts and subscribes. Site audit checks if the analytical code of a webpage that’s updated or moved and alerts you if the page has gone down.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The best part about web server monitoring is that you get instant alerts that can come in the form of a phone alert, email, text message or phone call. These alerts inform you if there’s a problem and what exactly that problem means. This happens after monitoring and checking your webpage. You can choose the way you want to get the alert and who to send it to. Web server monitoring is not just a simple way to prevent your server to crash but it also has the important ability to notice an underperforming server. It might be just dust in the exhaust fan or a buggy reboot but if your server slows down, your costumers slow down.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Visitors may lose interest if websites cannot deliver their contents as they should in an age when speed is wanted above almost everything else. By having your servers running, you keep your customers satisfied and always coming back. So, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/support-and-monitoring-services/littlefish-alert-server/&quot;&gt;server monitoring service&lt;/a&gt; can be the ideal solution for anyone that really wants to run a successful website. If you care about your business going smoothly, hire a server monitoring service and become free of all the stress self monitoring brings. Your website should be well-designed and be available every time somebody wants to visit it in order to get the best feedback. With &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/support-and-monitoring-services/littlefish-alert-server/&quot;&gt;server monitoring&lt;/a&gt; there are no worries.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Advantages to this service are quite obvious. Your webpage will be down less and problems will be fixed right away instead of when you notice them or a customer reports them. Web server monitoring can really enhance your online business. Some of the key features of server monitoring include backup checks, hacker checks, disk consumption rates, exchange store usage, disk health, windows server updates services, antivirus, full asset tracking, event logs and more. Also, you know that when your server slows down or something’s going wrong, server monitoring has got your back. So, find the company that provides you with the best &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/support-and-monitoring-services/littlefish-alert-server/&quot;&gt;server monitoring services&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] What Could a Good IT Consultant Service Do for You</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:21083</link>
         <description>&lt;p&gt;Every business need is different. So, it needs a special solution and not the “typical plan” as some call it. Even though sometimes things get
complicated, there is always someone to call to be there for you and your&lt;br /&gt;
company. That is why you need to get the best &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company on the market.&lt;br /&gt;
To be sure you get the most efficient services in order to help your business&lt;br /&gt;
growing. This &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/support-and-monitoring-services/littlefish-support/&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company can give you assistance in every situation.&lt;br /&gt;
While you’re searching for the best, look at the services they provide. See if&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;remote backup&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-disaster-recovery/&quot;&gt;disaster recovery&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/connectivity/littlefish-security/&quot;&gt;IT security&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/support-and-monitoring-services/littlefish-alert-server/&quot;&gt;server monitoring&lt;/a&gt; are on their&lt;br /&gt;
list. This can make your life much easier.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A consultant is the trained and skilled person that focuses on advising you in order to meet your business objectives. There are three ways on getting
consultancy service: you have the professional services firms which have high&lt;br /&gt;
bill rates, staffing firms which take care of temporary skill shortage and&lt;br /&gt;
technical projects and independent consultants who work at a company or as&lt;br /&gt;
independent contractors. Their efficiency results from their ability to&lt;br /&gt;
integrate and support technologies and also determining products and brands.&lt;br /&gt;
While searching for an &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/consulting-services/littlefish-engineer/&quot;&gt;IT consultant&lt;/a&gt; you should compare and contrast the&lt;br /&gt;
services from the &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-companies/&quot;&gt;IT Support companies&lt;/a&gt; on the market.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Think about the advantages. As long as you can’t manage the technical part of your business, then the hired help is the way you should go. An IT
consultant has a lot of experience and knowledge and he’ll know what to do to&lt;br /&gt;
your system. Also, if you use different software applications for your&lt;br /&gt;
business, then the IT consultant has the power to make them run smoothly&lt;br /&gt;
together and avoid system breakdown in the event of software conflicts. Another&lt;br /&gt;
important thing is that your company evolves and with its’ evolution there will&lt;br /&gt;
be more complex needs that must be handled with care by experts that can take&lt;br /&gt;
care of your business.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are some other advantages that make you think about it from another point of view. There’s the fact that even though your company doesn’t work 24
hours a day, seven days a week, there are IT Support companies that offer their&lt;br /&gt;
services round the clock. This means you can call them whenever you need it and&lt;br /&gt;
solve whatever problem you have. Also, an IT consultant can train your staff to&lt;br /&gt;
work on the system you have had installed so there won’t be any problems with&lt;br /&gt;
their job responsibilities. Another important problem is the fact that an IT&lt;br /&gt;
consultant can get you the best antivirus for your system so that you won’t&lt;br /&gt;
have any security problems.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By hiring the help of a good &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-companies/&quot;&gt;IT Support company&lt;/a&gt; you’ll make a good deal. They can help you with whatever you need, whenever you need it. They can give
you their best consultants. They can stay with your business as it develops and&lt;br /&gt;
becomes more and more complex. If you choose the best, then you won’t have to&lt;br /&gt;
always hire another &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/cornel-iakobcsuk/it-support/changing-face-it-support-and-fresh-approach-little-fish&quot;&gt;IT consultant&lt;/a&gt; because your &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/cornel-iakobcsuk/it-support/what-s-know-about-computers&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company will send you&lt;br /&gt;
one when you need it. They save you money and time and give you the insurance&lt;br /&gt;
that everything works as planned. When specialized &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/cornel-iakobcsuk/it-support-0&quot;&gt;IT professionals&lt;/a&gt; perform&lt;br /&gt;
tasks for your business, you can see the service that makes the difference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, new problems, viruses, hackers that may affect your business appear every day. You need a good IT consultant that can manage the
optimization and development of your company. Everyone needs a helping hand&lt;br /&gt;
sometimes and expert help for your IT infrastructure gives you just that. If&lt;br /&gt;
you have any problems from SQL issues on a web server to not managing an&lt;br /&gt;
Exchange upgrade, then pick up the phone and hire the best. As wide as the area&lt;br /&gt;
of IT is, so are the problems that may appear. You have to know that you and&lt;br /&gt;
your company are safe and an IT consultant is there when you want him to be.&lt;br /&gt;
So, what are you waiting for?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Malabar Partners LLC as an investment vehicle</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29879</link>
         <description>At Malabar, like many small companies we are hustling for business. We are helping people with business development, with investment offerings, with marketing and with sales. We work with a diverse group of clients in North America, and are focused on building a presence in India. The poor economy has made this very tough. We are getting a few clients, but the world has changed. Our goal is to find the right business model, not only for our clients, but for us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When we talk to people in the US and tell them we are paying attention to India, they all remark how smart this is. Yet, what I need help with is to find investors in India that would want to fill a Series A round of $5 MM in Malabar Partners LLC. Why?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malabar Partners LLC is located in, involved with, and building organizations in the #3 research region in the World. We work every day with University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania State University, Carnegie Mellon University, and University of West Virginia business incubation properties. Last week alone, we reviewed over 40 emerging technologies ready to be commercialized ... in one week. We saw six social media companies, we saw one IT company focused on rapid prototyping in the manufacturing process, we saw 12 bio-medical companies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here is our problem, and your opportunity. The #3 research region in the world in 2006 represented roughly $155 MM of venture investment. Of this, $152 MM came from outside of our region. This got us to thinking about our business solution:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Raise $5 MM series A round for seed funding of the top 10 business ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
2. Provide our management and marketing expertise to accelerate the commercialization of these technologies.&lt;br /&gt;
3. Provide our investors access to new emerging technology, in a variety of ways (licensing, equity purchase, partnership, etc).&lt;br /&gt;
4. By making investments from $100,000 to $300,000 in each startup, we can build a technology portfolio of 25 + companies.&lt;br /&gt;
5. Believe we can create a 5 year series A round with 20% annual return.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you know someone that might be interested in this, we would like to forward a prospectus. We have already lined up local angel networks, all the University technology licensing authorities, and have worked in this environment for over 20 years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Interesting idea, help me realize it. Thanks.</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] How Articles And Blogs Help SEO?</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29778</link>
         <description>rticles and blogs play a major role in content creation as part of SEO. Search engines need content that are related to the website because for SEO content is the King. Placing keywords in the content and carefully linking it to the website proves to be a successful methodology for SEO&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Say you have created a few articles and blogs. . . then? Distributing it through various online sources is most tricky and challenging since there are various articles/PR/blog sites available in the internet where you are allowed to publish your creation. Few of the points that may help you to do better in terms to posting the article or blog are,&lt;br /&gt;
- Don’t sell too much in the articles&lt;br /&gt;
- Don’t distribute the same article everywhere&lt;br /&gt;
- Create max one link per article&lt;br /&gt;
- Keep it informative&lt;br /&gt;
- Don’t copy paste texts from other blogs&lt;br /&gt;
- Keep it as short as possible&lt;br /&gt;
- Have a habit of creating content on a consistent basis&lt;br /&gt;
- Don’t create and distribute many articles at one shot, do it in regular intervals&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note that content for articles, blogs and PR should be different in nature. Always keep the targeted audience in mind for better search engine optimization results. It is also important to attach a blogging system into your website and keep updating it. Googlebots will look for constant changes and updates happening in your website, and blogs can fulfill that requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It’s better to hire a professional content writer to this job or at least someone from your close circle who is very much interested in writing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Good Luck.&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Chennai OCC] pursuit of happyness</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29649</link>
         <description>Doing what you like is freedom, liking what you do is happiness read the poster i had as a teenager.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am constatly in discussions with friends who have start ups and have left some lucrative jobs to do their own stuff. Of course I admire their courage and grit. At the same time I wonder if it was a wise move for them. What about their commitment to support their family (my friends were much married and are first generation entrepreneurs, so did not have a large family pool to dip into).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My friend's logic was this was his chance to live life on his terms. All well said, but after 10 years, no offense to him, he is not the next Bill Gates - his ideas were good and his business is on its own two feet and he certainly makes both ends meet. But to me he could have done a lot better if he had a longer corporate stint and then took the plunge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My friend says, people who stay on in the corporate world for a long time, will never come into business and risk it all full time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rather a sweeping statement and I am waiting for my friends in this great forum to prove my friend wrong!</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] Why Use Anti-Virus and Anti-Spam</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:20839</link>
         <description>The two things that make us waste precious time and ruin our day are the spam junk that we get and sneaky viruses that take control of our &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/cornel-iakobcsuk/it-support/changing-face-it-support-and-fresh-approach-little-fish&quot;&gt;computer&lt;/a&gt;. The funny thing is that the unwanted messages don’t just pile up in our inbox but also may bring with them viruses that represent a real threat to our computers. If we look at the problem from different perspectives we can see that viruses show us how vulnerable we are because a properly made virus can disrupt productivity and make damages of billions of dollars. If we look at it the other way we may see that viruses also show us how evolved, sophisticated and connected humans have become.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What’s a computer virus and what does it do? It’s a &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/cornel-iakobcsuk/it-support/online-backup-and-why-do-we-need-it&quot;&gt;software&lt;/a&gt; that spreads itself by infecting executable files and after that it duplicates itself, interfering with your computer operations. Of course, a virus does all this without you knowing. Viruses are especially designed to do certain operations and so while some damage files others just to try to spread around. It’s important to know that even the ones that just spread around are harmful as they infect files too. Anyway, the actual effect of the virus depends on what it was programmed to do. Note that viruses may corrupt or delete files or even delete the entire hard disk but it may not physically damage your hard disk.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How do you get a computer virus and how do you get rid of it? One of the ways you get them is by those annoying spam messages. It’s extremely important that you don’t open an attachment of an email that you got from a person you don’t know. Also, you might get a virus from downloaded file or from instant messaging messages. Best thing to do is find a good &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company and get the best Anti Virus there is. No business can survive without this kind of program. It efficiently protects your files so that viruses can’t touch them. It saves you from all the trouble and you don’t have to lose sleep. Your business is safe and so are you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What’s spam and what can it do? Spam messages get to you every day and every way. They may hide some interesting viruses that can do anything to your computer.&lt;br /&gt;
All they do besides spreading around is losing your time. Your schedule gets busier because of the spam phenomenon that increases everyday and why? Because of the companies who specialize in this kind of under handed marketing. Your inbox gets full and you may have some important email that can’t get to you because of all the spam. You can’t complete your tasks, spend less time with your family and friends because you have to delete those useless spam messages you get.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can you avoid it? First of all, give a call to that &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company and get their &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/support-and-monitoring-services/littlefish-anti-spam/&quot;&gt;Anti-Spam&lt;/a&gt; software. The role of any Anti Spam software is to identify and isolate the malicious, unwanted email from the genuine ones. This software is coded in such way that all unwanted emails are collected in a spam folder and you can delete them when you’re sure they’re all spam. After that, it’s really important to keep your Anti-Virus and Anti Spam updated. Avoid publishing your email address on websites or forums because a spammer may get a hold of it and then you’re getting your inbox filled like I said. Do these things and you’ll save precious time.</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] What’s To Know About Computers</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:20837</link>
         <description>Let’s talk about solutions or answers to anything regarding to the thing which we can’t live without-our evolved source of problems and questions-our PC. From how to choose the &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company to data recovery, we always have something to deal with and we must be smart about it.&lt;br /&gt;
Should we choose a new or a used computer? If you know what you want to use it for and how much are you willing to spend, then some of your choosing problems are solved. If you want to use it for performance 3D gaming, you should get a new computer. But, if you want it for basic use, like writing papers and surfing the internet, then you can be satisfied with a used computer. Even though used computers are not as powerful as the newer ones, you can get some good use out of them for typing or other basic tasks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What if you had a slow computer? Should you try and solve it yourself? Well, there are some solutions that not include third parties or spending your money. As many other things, computers need to be cleaned and maintained. One of the things you should try is checking your recycle bin. If it’s full of unnecessary documents and you are sure that none of them serves you anymore, you can just right click on the icon and choose Empty Recycle Bin. Another trick would be downloading software that clears out your cache files. These are temporary files which are downloaded when you visit specific websites. Last, but not least, try and delete any unused files that you don’t need because in time they could affect your computer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ever have a computer issue that you are not able to fix yourself? If you are having this kind of computer issues, it may be time to get some professional help. Make sure you get a good reference and find out what types of services they provide. It’s important to look for companies that can offer free evaluations. If they offer &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;online backup&lt;/a&gt; or other&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/&quot;&gt;IT support services&lt;/a&gt;, it may be a time saver as you don’t have to bring your computer to their office. Anyway, it's always a good idea to call and talk to them first before you agree to anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another important problem is how to protect your wireless network from unwanted users that are difficult to identify and that use your network in order to download unauthorized material on the rights of the songs and music. To overcome these problems you should do a couple of things like-changing the password on your wireless network from time to time and installing cryptographic keys to the codes can be changed according to a regular basis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What about data recovery? You need to have trusted &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-disaster-recovery/&quot;&gt;data recovery&lt;/a&gt; technique means, in order to prevent data loss. Another way of going around this would be using remote backup software.&lt;br /&gt;
But what if you don’t and your computer breaks down? Data Recovery Software has emerged as the new technique to recover lost data from storage systems. It as been proven that this software is the best means to restore files and folders lost because of unforeseen mishaps. From communicating with other continents to having any piece of information we want at our disposal, computers have revolutionized the world of technology and have made our life much easier.</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] The Changing Face Of IT Support And The Fresh Approach From Little Fish</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:20836</link>
         <description>Historically, internal employees would fulfil specific roles with external consultants brought in when expertise in particular areas was required. A good example is that of &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; was historically delivered through internal dedicated personnel or a willing volunteer, with some external consultancy brought on board to provide selective guidance to deliver the service needed. In more recent times, such staff members have been seen somewhat as a luxury and more and more companies are asking their kindly volunteers to concentrate on their core tasks in order to be more productive for the greater business.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The need to outsource then becomes a priority and recession focuses every purchaser of &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/&quot;&gt;IT services&lt;/a&gt; to sharpen their criteria and also raise their expectation of the service that is to be delivered. Economic decline can also be a time of great potential, a time for increased creativity and investment into reviewing and refreshing the way in which a business functions in order to become a more effective and productive environment which can only encourage growth and improvements in performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The very nature of &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/news/&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; and the manner in which the service has historically been delivered has been the motivation for Littlefish over the past six months to rise to the challenge of changing the standard for &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-companies/&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; delivery.&lt;br /&gt;
The release of the Littlefish Singlepoint portal in September 2009 will see the way in which a client experiences &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/contacts/london/&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; change dramatically; the new, unified system approach will revolutionise the way in which IT users,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Pune OCC] Online Backup And Why Do We Need It</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:20835</link>
         <description>Backing up data and protecting it is the hardest and most important challenge for every day computer users. Accidental deletion, system failure, viruses, power spikes and other similar incidents may be some of the reasons due to which data loss may occur.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of the fact that data loss would strongly damage any Company or Organization and in some cases it can lead to total shutdown, everyone needs &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;remote backup&lt;/a&gt; in order to prevent any unfortunate consequences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remote Backup is the best way to restore data the most effective way and it includes less human power, fewer mouse clicks and little time to restore data back. It means that in order to back up your files you create alternative copies of actual data so that you may restore your crucial files and folders again if it is lost due to any reason.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now I suggest you review your hardware and data and take the time to create a computer backup plan, and find out anything you can about the best backup techniques as the advantages of &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;online backup&lt;/a&gt; solutions for safely storing your most precious asset.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You should really think about online backup as it is safe no matter where you are. Everything stays online so there is threat of it being lost, stolen or destroyed by the two “F” words: fire and flood. The cost is very low, less than a dollar per GB and it can backup Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes, Microsoft SQL Server, My SQL Database Server, Oracle Database Server, Lotus Domino, Lotus Notes, In-File Data and volume shadow copy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All you need is one simple login account for your entire business to be protected in 100 separate backup sets all running perfectly. You have access to your files from anywhere in the world and they can be easily retrieved. If you decide to use this option check into their background and find out if the service you choose encrypts your data and has a guarantee. Remind yourself the fact that online backup is automated and reliable and saves you from forgotten or missed backups that may be seen as constant failures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you think about it, other ways of backing up your data like tape drives or external hard disk drives have their disadvantages: you have to backup your data almost every week and after each one you have to switch them off and keep them in a safe location. If you don’t have a safe place for them then you have to create a special repository. These things imply to much human work. In contrast, &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-remote-vault/&quot;&gt;online backups&lt;/a&gt; relieve you of such worries as the software breaks up all the separate elements of your backup (Databases, Mail, Files etc) and back each one in order for your business to be safe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Forget all the fuss and try &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;online backup&lt;/a&gt;. Regardless of what happens or wherever you would need to recover it, your data is just safe and sound at a minimal price.&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Pune OCC] Disaster Recovery And Where Do We Start</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:20834</link>
         <description>The more your business grows and the longer you have your company, the more data&lt;br /&gt;
like documents, spreadsheets, presentations and media files pile up. The operations&lt;br /&gt;
of an organization or company depend very much on management’s awareness of&lt;br /&gt;
potential disasters. Every company should have the best &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/&quot;&gt;IT Support services&lt;/a&gt; company that&lt;br /&gt;
could come up with an excellent &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-services/disaster-planning-and-remote-backup/littlefish-disaster-recovery/&quot;&gt;data recovery&lt;/a&gt; plan in case of an unfortunate&lt;br /&gt;
occurrence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Such a plan is made of consistent actions to be taken before,&lt;br /&gt;
during and after a disaster. Also, it is highly important that the plan is&lt;br /&gt;
tested in order to see if it can ensure the continuity of operations and&lt;br /&gt;
availability of critical resources when needed. The objective of data recovery&lt;br /&gt;
planning is to protect the organization if all or part of its operations and computer&lt;br /&gt;
services become unusable and also to keep the business, your business intact so&lt;br /&gt;
you could continue where you left off.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having all that data on your hands requires a storage solution with hundreds&lt;br /&gt;
of gigabytes available and the advantage is that your storage options are&lt;br /&gt;
varied. From portable hard drives to online backup, mass storage is cheap. So,&lt;br /&gt;
there’s a solution for every situation and budget. You just have to get the&lt;br /&gt;
good ones in the business to do your thing. You should look for someone that&lt;br /&gt;
can give the best map to recovery with the lowest price and the most&lt;br /&gt;
advantages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Don’t confuse them with the painters because they do more than&lt;br /&gt;
that: they protect and recover your precious data in order to keep your&lt;br /&gt;
business running. They can’t help with fixing the walls of your office, but&lt;br /&gt;
they can and will we can and will help you plan what to do in the event of the&lt;br /&gt;
worst happening. They will give you the answer on how to re-establish your&lt;br /&gt;
network in a new location and get you back up on your feet and running as soon&lt;br /&gt;
as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even though this is the most extreme situation, the &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company will&lt;br /&gt;
look into each and every system to see what preventative measures can be taken&lt;br /&gt;
in order to ensure that something as short as a small power cut doesn’t put&lt;br /&gt;
your business in danger. We evaluate each system from all potential risk&lt;br /&gt;
angles, including all the potential physical risks and also the risk from&lt;br /&gt;
personnel and hackers. Backup software does not automatically come with a new&lt;br /&gt;
server but your &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/it-companies/&quot;&gt;IT Support company&lt;/a&gt; will offer backup as part of their service and also what extra equipment you&lt;br /&gt;
might need. However, we have to recognize the limitations of the human factors&lt;br /&gt;
involved in the backup scheme.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, you should consider this also, even though&lt;br /&gt;
many businesses have confidence that the process is working as expected. That’s&lt;br /&gt;
why backup monitoring is an essential part of the equation.&lt;br /&gt;
Backup monitoring is the process that checks if your backup has run&lt;br /&gt;
successful because of the fact that sometimes it might seem that backup has run&lt;br /&gt;
but it hasn’t. Your &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.littlefishsupport.com/technical-support&quot;&gt;IT Support&lt;/a&gt; company should perform a daily backup monitoring&lt;br /&gt;
check to make sure everything’s working as planned. You should search all over&lt;br /&gt;
the Internet and ask your IT friends if they know a good data recovery company.&lt;br /&gt;
You will be surprised to find out that many of these suggestions are&lt;br /&gt;
extraordinary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Everyone knows an IT guy that has suffered in trying to recover&lt;br /&gt;
lost data and also knows why. It is unbelievable but some businesses operate&lt;br /&gt;
without backup. This means of course that they didn’t think about the&lt;br /&gt;
consequences they might endure in the event of a disaster. The thing is that&lt;br /&gt;
once backup has been set up it can be an automatic process and you don’t have&lt;br /&gt;
to worry about it because it does its job with your minimal implication.</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Shopping!!</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29391</link>
         <description>For all those who pass out at the mention of shopping, especially, festival shopping this blog is worth a skip!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is intended as an ode to shopping!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is less than a week before Diwali, and I was cursing those stars that kept me Down Under during those formative shopping weeks. I dreamed about the pre Diwali shopping rendevous that means we meander down the lanes of T Nagar, the Mecca of shopping in Chennai and get baptised. I kind of missed those pre - weeks as I was consumed by work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I rushed back to India with just 2 weeks before Diwali. The first place I land is right in the heart of T Nagar. The anticipation of locking horns with thousands of other shoppers in about 5 KMS of Shopping Arcades that at its weakest moments houses at least 10000 people, sends a rush of adrenalian.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Why don't we go to XXX Silks that is in Mylapore where it is less crowded, wonders my husband? I give him the you-have -to-be- kidding look and just butt head first into the mela. I have this idea of a saree that is not too traditional with the usual green/maroon combination and heavy zari, but I am looking for some thing more contemporary with unsual combinations with less zari, more metal finish but not glossy, with some neo art prints that are not gothic. My husband looks on at a comfortable sofa at the far end of the store with great longing. I blackmail him that the object of bringing him along to the store is so I buy something that he likes too. He said he likes the saree I wore during our wedding reception the best. I realised my error and changed my tag line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By now I have had a cursory glance at all the key floors in the shop and come back to the one where I started the expedition. I look at a particular raw silk ethnic work and search for colours that are more appealing. I tusssle a little with a lady next to me who seemed more interested in what I was choosing that what she couldgrab. But then she picked up a raw silk piece in fushia shade that I totally was hooked. My mind said that had to be mine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As she looked over at the next piece, the rust colored piece I had looked at earlier, she dropped the Fushia into my waiting arms. I immediately took it to billing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Billing is my husband's area. Did I tell you this was my new tagline??</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Elements5 Campaign on CFL lighting for Rural Schools - The Knowledge Foundation initiative... www.elements5.in</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29342</link>
         <description>Later this year 100 countries across the globe are getting together at Copenhagen to sign a key treaty on Climate Change and initiatives to reduce the carbon foot print of individual nations. This we believe will be a big step towards safeguarding the ecosystem from an unending spiral of destruction owing to development/industrialisation. Pls follow the key tenets of the campaign at the following url ( &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.hopenhagen.org/&quot;&gt;http://www.hopenhagen.org/&lt;/a&gt; ) .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the last 6 months i have been a part of a Climate Change Diplomacy group of 20 researchers from across the world convening at a study on the initiatives pursued by individual countries for climate Change. Some of the most active proponents of this cause or European nations, island states, many countries in africa. Some of the developing countries like india, brazil are debating on the extent of tradeoff one can pursue given the exponential growth that they are witnessing right now. Countries like China and US seem to contribute majorly to the GHG (Greenhouse gas) emissions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The previous meeting of the UNFCCC was at 2007 wherein the Bali Action Plan was drafted in a effort to preserve the forest and ecosystem.The initiative was focused towards tech transfer that can aid poorer countries to leapfrog over development and ensure they leave a lesser carbon footprint.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We at the Knowledge Foundation are rolling out a campaign on Climate Change as a part of Elements5 . The campaign is to substitute CFL lighting at rural schools across tamil nadu. The rationale behind the campaign is that we intend to reduce energy consumption in schools that are currently using filament bulbs and tubelights with better energy saving alternatives like CFL. We are currently talking to a lot of colleges garnering volunteers to help us in the roll out of this campaign. Will update you more as we go on...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Volunteers who would like to join us in this initiative of going to rural schools can get in touch with Kausik ( kausik@elements5.in or syed@elements5.in )</description>

         <title>[Chennai OCC] Issues in having your own business</title>
         <link>http://chennaiopencoffee.ning.com/xn/detail/920594:BlogPost:29293</link>
         <description>I was listening to a recently graduated doctor talking about trying to make ends meet with his own practice. He is finding it difficult to handle the cost of &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.goldenrule.com&quot; style=&quot;text-decoration:none;color:#222222;&quot;&gt;Medical insurance&lt;/a&gt; for all of his employees. He is finding that offering some form of &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.mnui.com/products.asp?prod=amigo&quot; style=&quot;text-decoration:none;color:#222222;&quot;&gt;Temporary medical&lt;/a&gt; insurance is holding the practice together until he can find a decent deal.&lt;br /&gt;
Does anyone have a recommendation for a great company that would be sensitive to the 'cost of business' for independent doctors?</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] My Dissertation Writing Story…</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:20581</link>
         <description>When Dissertation Troubles Surrounded Me:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is an appreciative letter to thank the people who provided pin-point and professional &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.dissertation-advice.co.uk/&quot;&gt;UK dissertation&lt;/a&gt; writing help at the time when I was totally disappointed and had braced myself to meet the disaster regarding my PhD degree. It was the worst time of my life when I even thought of my dissertation disapproval.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was busy working and handling my social life. You can say that I was hanging in balance among my dissertation, office work, family and social life. That time was double edged sword for me.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the worst part that I had no clue how to manage to complete my dissertation without disturbing my family life. At one stage, I even thought of my dropping my dissertation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dissertation Writing Help:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of desperation I asked each and every of my friend and acquaintance to give help with &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.dissertation-advice.co.uk/&quot;&gt;dissertation writing&lt;/a&gt; and get it approved and claim my PhD degree. Well, I came to know many ideas but all of them required time which was the most difficult task for me to do. As a matter of fact, it was the real problem that I faced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One evening I was talking to my dearest friend, Bill Lawrence, about my dissertation writing completion. There he came with the real help and informed me about an online &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.dissertation-advice.co.uk/&quot;&gt;dissertation writing&lt;/a&gt; help service namely www.dissertation-help.co.uk.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dissertations Solution&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Obviously I could not wait for a single minute anymore. So I logged on quickly and browsed my required site. Browsing the site I got signs of hope to complete my dissertation. But it was risky for me to believe an online service. I had doubts what if this online service frauds with me and neither pays me money nor my dissertation. But I was really elated when I received my excellent written dissertation. I quickly downloaded and submitted it. Yes, my dissertation was approved by the committee. And now I am preparing for dissertation defense. And I soon will be a PhD degree holder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Best of luck to the upcoming PhD s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would appreciate your thoughts on using a custom writing service such as this. Because I can not accept it to be unacceptable or unethical, because if such services are unethical then the whole tutoring business becomes unethical as well. I would like to know your thoughts on this…</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] Numerology prediction for India year 2009 &amp; 2010</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:19801</link>
         <description>21st century is attracting more and more people towards Numerology and the predictions of good numerologists have always helped many to prepare for the good and bad times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A brief numerology prediction is done by Gireesh C Samrat for the country, India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
INDIA = adds to 3&lt;br /&gt;
BHARAT = adds 6&lt;br /&gt;
DATE OF INDEPENDENCE = 15/08/1947&lt;br /&gt;
So India’s&lt;br /&gt;
Birthday number is = 6 [i.e.1+5=6]&lt;br /&gt;
Number of month is = 1 &amp;amp; 4 becoz August is ruled by 1-4 in numerology&lt;br /&gt;
Destiny Number = 15/08/1947= 8&lt;br /&gt;
Current Destiny number is = 3 [i.e.1+9+4+7]&lt;br /&gt;
2008-1947= 61yrs&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Bad news&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So India is in her 62nd year as of now, 62 adds to 8 [i.e.6+2=8]. Number 8 represents Planet Saturn in numerology. Saturn is a planet which gives test, trials, troubles and warnings but at the end it gives rewards too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From the above we can clearly see the entire financial crisis the whole country is under and all the problems that we have faced so far. And as far as I can see, its going to continue till 31st December 2009.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason is numbers takes some time to produce positive vibrations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I said we are in our 62nd year till 15-8-2009 after that we are going to celebrate 63rd year of independence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So 63 adds to 9 [i.e.6+3=9]. Number 9 represents Planet Mars in Numerology. Mars is a planet of energy, force, revolution and at the same time it is also considered as planet of war and destruction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This means for India next year would be a great revolution and at the same time she may face war or more terror attacks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I will leave this to the government which is going to form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And I also would like to say&lt;br /&gt;
By knowing the power or influence of Mars on can make right use of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Good news&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Year 2010 = adds to 3&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
India will be in her 63rd year after 15-aug-2009 which means from 15th-aug-2009 to 31st-Dec-2009 India will be under the influence of number 2-7, 9 and 1-4. Its not a good combination of numbers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that India will be under the influence of 3 [i.e.2+0+1+0=3] and 9 till 15-Aug-2010. Number 3 represents planet Jupiter in numerology and Jupiter is a planet of wealth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is one of the most fortunate combinations of numbers one should have, because with the planet of wealth and planet of force and energy we can do wonders if used in right way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I think more good news for India is expected to hear after January 2010.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since 3, 6 and 9 are set of family number there won’t be any such difficulties except I discussed earlier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[For numerology consultation call 9867502247 or e-mail gireesh36@gmail.com]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&quot;Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone can start today and make a new ending”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Pune OCC] Numerology</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:19795</link>
         <description>Numerology:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Numerology is the Science, Philosophy and Psychology of NUMBERS, used to predict your future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Numerology describes the Nature and also gives solutions to all Problems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Numerology all life is governed by the numbers 1 to 9 and these 1 to 9 numbers are precisely assigned to 9 planets of the Solar System.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Numerology is applied to Date of Birth and Names. In Numerology each alphabet letter equates to a number.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Numerology each number has certain qualities, strengths and weaknesses, positive and negative influences on life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Numerology helps in understanding oneself and thereby making the best use of the opportunities one encounters in life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Numerology is a tool to gain insight and knowledge, and to get the best out of life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How Numerology works ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Numerology is calculated on the basis of one’s Date of Birth. Out of which the birth day is one of the most important indicators in Numerology. The vibration of the day, the person is born on, has an enormous influence on life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example: Gireesh D.O.B is 23-02-1981&lt;br /&gt;
Gireesh birthday no is 2+3 = 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Numerology, the birth month gives zodiac sign. Each Zodiac sign has its Ruler Planet or Number as per the Numerology Gurus. Thus it would be the secondary planet or number of a person.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One cannot change their Date of Birth to make numbers more fruitful / favorable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But Numerologist says, each alphabet letter equates to a precise number in Numerology. Only a Professional Numerologist can bring one’s NAME on a favorable Number based on related planet by adding or replacing another alphabet or by removing an alphabet or changing ones NAME as per Numerology. This will bring Strong Positive Vibrations and create great opportunities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So the most important role of Numerology is to bring Name on a fortunate number based on related planet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By applying Numerology one can bring good fortune in a six months or a year. But however one should be professional to do so. It’s too RISKY if some unprofessional suggests on Numerology Numbers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So contact Numerologist Gireesh C Samrat on 9867502247 or E-mail gireesh36@gmail.com.</description>

         <title>[Pune OCC] Java enthusiasts??? One Product-Idea on PlanetAikon</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:14450</link>
         <description>In the era of globalization, businesses are no longer confined to cities, states and countries. Conference calls / web conferencing and virtual meetings are daily routine and widely used practices in today’s global work environment in most of the organizations. Multiple heads generally participate in such meetings from multiple locations. At times it happens that critical points are missed due to several reasons. Few of them being language disparities, voice disturbance and others.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'MINUTES of MEETINGS (MOM) creation'&lt;/b&gt; application would cater to these problems. It will facilitate capturing important points of the meeting / call. The software will monitor the call and after the call would give a text O/P in word format as to the points covered. The software is designed so that it will catch all important points, recognize 'key voice/s' and agenda and can save the MOM in text format. Meeting members can actually see the points covered in the discussion in text format. The software would be helpful to track the execution after the meeting and it may serve as a check-list for follow up as well. It can also be an important management tool at several levels within the organization. This product has a niche market and an option to partner with current web-conferencing service providers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Team requires three contributors:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Desired Skills:&lt;br /&gt;
1. Quick learner and self starter&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>[Pune OCC] Problems of IT implementation</title>
         <link>http://punestartups.ning.com/xn/detail/1988582:BlogPost:14205</link>
         <description>This incident I have witnessed at one of the nationalized bank at Kothrud branch, Pune on Jul 3, 2009.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I went to a branch for updating my passbook and withdrawing money from the bank. The branch was deserted. All employees were having a coffee and chitchatting with each other. When I explained the purpose of my visit, I was told that there is no connectivity and no transaction can be done. Following is the summary of my discussion with the branch manager.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: There is no connectivity?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: Yes, there is no connectivity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: I have to withdraw money and update my passbook.&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: Please come after some time or Monday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: How much time will be required to restore connectivity?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: May be 1 ½ hrs&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: Do you have a redundancy in connectivity?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: What it is? I am not sure. My branch is not connected at the moment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: What is a SLA definition for the service provider?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: I am not sure. Please talk with HO.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: What about business continuity plan?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: I am not aware of business continuity plan. At the moment, no transaction can be done. I am not aware of fallback arrangements.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: You may have other banking transactions like cheque clearing, DMat services etc. What will happen to these transactions?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: We will do it once the connectivity is restored. There will be some pending work and we may have to plan for it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: Is the bank / branch certified for ISO27001, BS25999?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: I am not sure. My branch is certified for ISO9001: 2000.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: Can I make a complaint that branch is not working due to connectivity problem in business hours?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: We do not have a provision of customer complaints. You may write your complaint on a piece of paper. I will acknowledge it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: What will happen to my complaint?&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: I will forward it to my HO. They will decide the actions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I: It is mandatory for ISO organization to measure customer satisfaction and track customer complaints as per ISO9001: 2000&lt;br /&gt;
Br. Manager: I am not aware. Please write on a piece of paper and I will forward it.&lt;br /&gt;

The visual aid is split into 2 pdf's. Although there is no accompanying Audio, most of the slides as self explanatory and make some very valid points about how to write your business plan and have a starting point for your startup idea.</description>
