Regular links to Ebooks

Regular updates of this blog is planned to link to free e-book providers. A huge collection of e-books are available on the Net and a regular search feature for these books are not available at present, because most of them are hosted in Rapidshare.

Welcome but late initiative from Orkut

Orkut's initiative to start a blog for its members is a welcome, though late, step in the right direction. The lack of a good blog utility was a glaring omission in Orkut for a long time. People had to post their blogs elsewhere, and show its link in the 'About' section of their own profiles. Even the new facility is I think, a tie up with blogger.com and is hence not tightly integrated with the Orkut design. But, something is better than nothing!
