Chandra's Random Updates!

I got this error in chrome but it happily went through in IE. Server has a weak ephemeral Diffie-Hellman public key This error can occur when connecting to a secure (HTTPS) server. It means that the server is trying to setup a secure connection but, due to a disastrous misconfiguration, the connection wouldn’t be secure at all! In this case the server needs to be fixed. Chrome won’t use insecure connections in order to protect your privacy.

Typically we copy contents from wikipedia articles – paste it into word documents or other wysiwyg editors. Then format it and print. However after posting the question on facebook questions ( http://www.facebook.com/q/Is-there-a-easy-way-to-print-wikipedia-articles-without-the-sidebars-and-see-also-references-etc/10150286691460015?t=1&keep_objects=1 ), I found that there is an option right there in the sidebar to get printable version or even download it as pdf. http://techcrunch.com/2009/02/27/print-you-favorite-wikis-as-books-courtesy-of-wikipedia-and-pediapress/ has some more details on new initiatives. We can add multiple chapters into http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Book and print out combined articles too.

Original post : @ 7/22/2010 03:45:00 PM I typically start office time with browsing my office mails followed by gmail and live mails . This is now invariably followed by 30 mins of browsing technical sites and I have kind of grown addictive to these: Regularly visit: http://news.cnet.com http://digg.com/technology http://techcrunch.com Few other sites I visit occasionally: http://techmeme.com http://mashable.com/ Few more which I rarely visit: http://www.techradar.com/ http://engadget.com http://slashdot.com http://thenextweb.com/ http://www.readwriteweb.com/ http://gigaom.com/ Trying to avoid mention of FaceBook , Orkut and Twitter where I spend considerable time too :)

Original post: My new domain – www.cmohan.info @ 1/18/2010 11:32:00 PM   Registered domain – www.cmohan.info from godaddy.com . Got a offer right now for 1.07$.. Actual is 9.99$ per year. But it means next year onwards I have to pay 9.99$ if I have to keep it :( Just redirecting my blog ( http://bschandramohan.blogspot.com ) to this for now… Blogger allows custom domain. Details on how to do that can be found here . If you are stuck, just leave a comment and I can guide you :-)

  Tried Gist beta - started out as a contacts manager but as I added various social networks became more and more of a aggregator. Nice UI but looks common to many more apps already out there. Gist - Organize, Connect, and Communicate with contacts from your entire professional network. www.gist.com Gist provides the only full view of the contacts in your professional network by creating a rich business profile for each one that includes the most news, status updates, and work details.

  Hurray!!!

Read that the FaceBook app Farmville has more users than the “in-thing” twitter. It’s a good time-pass activity but I think it’s the competitive spirit that drives it rather than the interest on the art of farming – plowing/ buying seeds/harvesting. Even with the vehicles like Tractor, Seeder and Harvester, it’s really tedious to harvest plants, plow the land and again put seeds. There are lot of cheat sites, tricks for Farmville which suggest plant different kind of plants with different harvest times so that you won’t get bored :)… Same applies for the different dishes in café world. Well, one easy solution is to outsource it! I am sure there are tons of people who would be willing to pay a small amount for their farms to be harvested before they get withered, when they are having a good sound sleep. Read that one of my senior colleague was doing the farming as her son had to go on a school trip and he didn’t want his crops to be withered out. I am sure she or for that matter anyon...

If you have a habit of checking the homepage everyday and clicking on the 4 links on the homepage to get to know more info, then do check the copyright of the image.. It clearly mentions what it is about :)
