Who Checks Your Profile? The Most Popular Application Thats Never Actually Existed



In a digital world where users are encouraged to socialize and share with each other, it may be an interesting notion to know how many times people visit you and check out your profile when you are using social networking site Facebook. After all, the ability to perform such tracking was once available on sites like MySpace and Friendster.
You could check how often your parents or spouse check up on you, find out if any old schoolmates are reading up on your developments or perhaps, most obviously, discover if you have any potential secret admirers.
However, like with most features regarding Facebook, there would be obvious privacy concerns with this. Imagine the flip side of this coin – would you want people knowing each and every time you visited their profile? Imagine you were the parent, the spouse, the old school friend or the secret admirer…

Facebook chat via Gmail: Tips

Guys!

 If you follow the instructions below, you would learn several tricks to open Facebook when blocked in your school or office. But some time situation does not allow you to access Facebook though it is not blocked.

Suppose, you work in an office and your boss is sitting beside you. Anyone would hesitate to open www.facebook.com in front of their office boss at the working hours. Believe me!! You can still take a quick view on your Facebook account at a glance just sitting in front of your office boss.

Many organizations allow Gmail in their office for the shake of correspondence of official activities. Using this facility, you can enjoy the Facebook within from your Gmail account at your office desk. What you have to do at the starting is enabling a lab feature called as “Add any gadget by URL” in your Gmail account. Then add the URL of the Facebook gadget. Here is the detailed workaround.

Who Killed Innocence….?

There is something exaggeratedly sinister about the brutal twin murders of an innocent 14- year- old girl, and the domestic who worked for the family ( nobody bothers about his death… are you surprised?). As things stand, the case has reached a bit of a dead end and there are any number of theories floating around. While it is true that the media has been conducting its own trial night after night and pretty much stating : the dad did it, the response of Aarushi’s parents has beenpuzzling and bizarre , to say the least.Grieving parents behave in a different manner. 
They are broken in spirit and rendered almost incoherent with grief at the loss of a loved one. An only child at that. Not these two, though. Sorry if this sounds like pop psychology gone wrong… but the conduct displayed by Mr. and Mrs. Talwar appears a bit too calculated, even cold blooded to viewers. It conveys just one thing : Catch us if you can. There is defiance and challenge built into every statement. ‘Where is the proof? What evidence do you have?” Aarushi’s mother keeps demanding aggressively, as if to suggest, “We’ve taken care of every small detail… covered each track…so there!” 
For a mother of a dead girl to project such steely determination during what must have been the most harrowing time of her life, seems a bit unnatural. I have spent enough time consoling mothers who have lost their kids to say this is perhaps the first time I have observed a mom whose sole objective seems to be to put up a feisty defence for herself and her husband.Both the Talwars have a script that reads like a law manual. Their faces are stony, their eyes, strangely devoid of any emotion. When they mention Aarushi, they could as well be discussing their neighbour’s kid.

Respecting our heritage

Most of us take pleasure in inscribing our names on the walls of invaluable archaeological masterpieces our country is home to, without realising the irreparable damage we are causing to the cultural heritage of India. Isn’t it about time we started preserving our heritage, asks Melanie p kumar.

Most of us are guilty of taking things for granted — be it our familial relationships, our inheritance, or our heritage. Our heritage is reflected in our ancient forts, palaces, places of worship, townships and water bodies. These have existed even before today’s generation started life on this earth and depending on how we respect our legacy, it will be available for future generations, as part of our history.

Page-3 movie review

Madhur Bhandarkar has always believed in tackling varied themes in his films. From TRISHAKTI, his directorial debut, to AAN, his last release, his films have had something to say. Irrespective of their box-office outcome, the fact cannot be denied that Madhur is an avid storyteller.

Madhur?s latest endeavour PAGE 3 also tackles an unusually realistic theme.

As the title suggests, PAGE 3 delves into the lives of the rich and famous. It takes potshots at the upper strata ? right from gay fashion designers, to struggling actors, to social workers, to socialites. Even the media isn?t spared!

PAGE 3 takes the viewer to a world that?s surreal, where relationships and friendships are capricious, where people lead dual lives, sporting a [false] mask all the while. In short, PAGE 3 exposes, ridicules, mocks and scoffs at the lives of Page 3 personalities.

Fiddler on the Roof was inarguably one of the most beloved stage musicals of the second half of the 20th century.

More than seven years later, when Norman Jewison's screen version was released, millions around the world were already familiar with the story of Tevye and his family. The motion picture adaptation further widened Fiddler on the Roof's audience and increased interest in the long-running play.

Great Dictator review

The Great Dictator is about the violence of war, the corrupting influence of power, decency struggling against madness, and the persecution of Jews during World War II. It’s also one of the funniest movies ever made, and such a pleasure to watch that you’ll barely notice that it’s deeply political and deadly serious.
Charles Chaplin made the movie while the U.S. was still technically at peace with Nazi Germany, and many were still pushing to keep Americans out of the “European war.” The full horrors of the Holocaust hadn’t yet come to light, but Chaplin’s film was a prescient assault on Hitler and National Socialism.
