SOMETHING REALLY COOL ABOUT YOUR GMAIL ID


I was just surfing through my GMAIL account and sending few mails, but in the process something unusual happened. When I researched about it, I discovered some really cool information about the GMAIL (Email) Id’s. 


Yes, my dear friends this is sensational. I discovered that Google employs a very unique algorithm for assigning Email Id’s to any unique user using GMAIL account.
Ok, let me first explain how it works and then you can say “thank you” to me.

Basically in simple words....Google algorithm for Email addresses ignores all the periods (“.” Or “dot”) in the Gmail Id’s. Still don’t get it, ok no worries..let me give an example here.

Suppose my email id is- vivek.nanda.1@gmail.com, now you can see that I have two periods in my so called unique Gmail Id (vivek”.”nanda”.”1). One fine day, you are in a hurry and instead of typing in vivek.nanda.1@gmail.com you sent me the mail at viveknanda.1@gmail.com, but do not worry because the email will still come to me as Google’s Email Id algorithm ignores all the periods in the unique Gmail Id. Ok, you still don’t believe then you can try by yourself.

For e.g. your email id is   abc@gmail.com (with no periods in it)
If someone sends a mail at a.b.c@gmail.com it will still be directed to you at abc@gmail.com
If someone sends a mail at a..b..c@gmail.com it will still be directed to you at abc@gmail.com

Isn’t it cool??
 
Personally I’m so relieved to discover this new thing about the Gmail id’s because in a country like India, where the population is over 1.21 billion, the name- “Vivek Nanda” is very common and when I created my Gmail account back then I had to rather give up on finding a good unique email id to stick with an annoying email id with 2 periods in it i.e. vivek.nanda.1@gmail.com. I’m glad, I got a better one now- viveknanda1@gmail.com , this is far more cooooool…..I’m loving it !!

One last thing: Google Apps does recognize dots. If you'd like to have a dot in your username, please ask your domain administrator to add your preferred username as a nickname.

DELHI BELLY- EXPERIMENTAL MUSIC



Bollywood is famous not just for making so many movies each year but also for making some really good music. Indian cinema is turning experimental but I think Bollywood Music is still lagging behind. Yes, it has changed from what it was in the older time, but it hasn’t been as experimental as the movies are.

The recent Bollywood movie to experiment with its music is “Delhi Belly”. The music of the movie is so different. I have to say that I haven’t seen such an experimental music for long now. The music is so cool…I’m loving it!! Good job by the music composers of Delhi Belly.

I thought I would give you all the taste of this latest Bollywood music from the movie “Delhi Belly”. I’m sharing couple of the songs that are becoming a rage these days in India.



So, do you like it??
