Today my friend asked me

“ how to delete FB acount permanenetly?”

I said “goto settings-account settings- Deactivate Account”

then she said “that only does the de-activation, becomes active when again clicked… wanna remove permanenetly”

Then I find following link to delete your Facebook account permanently

Go to this page:

http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=delete_account

Click “Submit” and follow the instructions.

Your account will be deactivated for two weeks, and if you don’t log in during that period, your account is permanently deleted.

This method is official and should be complete, i.e. no need to delete individual photos, comments, messages or items from your profile or anywhere else on Facebook!

I find out following two good  method to capture screenshots of whole long webpage

1) For firefox – there is a addon

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/8290

once u install it, u need to right click on page to take shots of whole screen or you can also select specific portion of any webpage. but one problem quality aint that good.

2) Another one  for all browsers, kind of small application software 1 MB size

Yesterday I installed Ubuntu Linux OS, everything went smooth, it hardly takes few minutes to install Ubuntu. Later I installed Wine to run Windows apps (Wine is an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X and Unix). First I tried to run UltraSurf cause without it I can’t even able to breathe coz our network pipeline is so much choked with firewalls and censorship I can’t even check my mails on Gmail.

So here is easy steps to run Ultrasurf in Ubuntu and Mac

Ultrasurf for Ubuntu Linux OS

1. Install Wine

http://www.winehq.org/

2. Download the necessary dll files
mfc42.dll
msvcp60.dll

Note: you can easily find them by Googling but when I downloaded from a site and used them it showed following error:

“The ordinal 6880 could not be located in the dynamic link library MFC42.DLL”

so my suggestions is to copy them from your windows operating system from file location ->C://windows/System

3. Copy the two dll files to
~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system
~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32

Note: if you go to file system and type ~/.wine at location bar then your hidden wine folder will get open then you can find above folders for pasting your necessary dll files.

4. Now run latest Ultrasurf and make sure settings like following screen shots.

Note: Goto options-enable Do not use IE option, set your networks proxy setting and then exit

5. Goto system-preferences-Network Proxy, Change your system proxy address to 127.0.0.1 and port to 9666

6. Now run Ultrasurf once again and enjoy the freedom

Note: while running Ultrasurf in Ubuntu it takes sometime cause it process through wine, just have little patience if it ain’t run.

Ultrasurf for Mac OSx

Just install the wine for Mac version and follow the above steps.

Good news Ultrasurf is much faster in Ubuntu than windows.

Here you can download latest version of ultrasurf

Download : UltraSurf-9.92.zip (5478)

“RT” or “retweeting” is simply taking a twitter post from someone else and forwarding (rebroadcasting) it to your followers. Here are a few common ways to retweet a message (all do the same thing):

RT @originalsender: original message
retweet @originalsender: original message
retweeting @originalsender: original message

Retweeting can be a great way to add followers, as it pushes your @username into foreign social graphs, which in turn results in clicks back to your profile. Make sure to track your retweets using retweetist.

Soon I found my .exe files are not working, i just can’t able to access any .exe files, no browser, no program files absolutely nothing even msconfig start file. for few hours it gave me a big headache 1st i thought it’s a virus attack  i tried to run stinger,  anti viruses but nothing was working.

Every time I was clicking exe files I was getting an error message – “This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the folder options” later I downloaded EXE File Association Fix to Restore default association for EXE files from other computer and thanks to almighty god it fixed up. later I scanned my computer i found 143 spywares and viruses.

Aisapaisa.com is upcoming online portal that will provide free online trading tips in India, officially launching on 1st april 2008. The team claims that it will be the first in India to offer free, up-to-date information on retail investment. If it is so then i’ll definitely give my thought to invest my money cause I’m always reluctant to invest money on shares due to lack of knowledge and market uncertainties which surges n’ crashes so frequently.

Started by the team of four – Ankit Mathur, IIM Ahmedabad, Neha Juneja, FMS Delhil, Himanshu” Grawl’, IIIT Hyderabad,Satvik Upadhyaya, IIM Ahmedabad. The team has already consulted experts from market watchdog Sebi.

“The team has decided not to invite any advertisements on the portal cause their visitors will be people struggling through market uncertainties. It will be a turn-off for them if they also have to wade through advertisements. Also, taking advertisements from listed companies would mean compromising on the objectivity of our information”

I wonder how these guys gonna monetize their value cause they are giving free tips with no ads then i believe they must have come up with new model of making money or might be they are working on donation model like wikipedia.

I’ll keep my eye on aisapisa.com and will come up with more info cause as everyone i also love to make money.
