Google's getting into Indian SMB market

Learnt about Google's initiative to penetrate the Indian market named "India, Get Your Business Online",  over the FM radio. Its a wonderful move by Google to make it deep into the Indian SMB market. The proposition is simply compelling for the market space and it wont take Google long to win hearts - given the reliability and uptime offered.  See more @ http://www.indiagetonline.in/


Just to elaborate on this service, it gives SMB's a headstart to build their website and content to it. There are a host of tools available to promote and enhance your website. The domain and website hosting is free for first year. The service is hosted by HostGator.in and seems like it runs its servers out of Madhya Pradesh, India.  


Overall, great move by Google. Good luck!

Connecting Ubuntu to Belkin N+ router USB drive

I recently purchased Belkin's N+ Wireless router. It worked great. Easy to set up and comes up LEDs that should help troubleshoot where the problem is. One of the other features is that it comes with a mount point for USB drive. This is good since it just provides an easy way to create a local NAS. You keep the drive in one place and access it from any of your laptops. Connecting it from Windows is easy. The usual \\belkin N+\Drive Name works. However, on linux, it did not work out of box. Looked like trouble with space in the name at first. But when I tried with IP address and it did work. I inferred space may not be the issue. I tried few suggestions from ... http://alittlecharm.blogspot.com/2009/06/connecting-ubuntu-to-belkin-n-usb-drive.html .. this did not work for me. Not as it is, at least. One reason i avoided to implement these suggestion as is that it required to install smb4k which would have also installed base kde and I wasn't in big favor of installing the whole t...

VirtualBox to KVM Migration

What: Virtualbox is a nice desktop virtualization software from erstwhile Sun Inc.  I used the personal use as well as open edition of it for quite sometime. However, could not resist the temptation to migrate to KVM, given its increasing roars in the virtualization space - both for desktop as well as server side. Not having a good tool to manage the VMs was a shortcoming of KVM for sometime. However, with Virt-Manger, this seems to have changed quite a lot. And so I started to migrate my windows image to KVM based. Source: Host OS: Ubuntu 10.04 Virtualization tool: VirtualBox Guest OS: Windows XP Sp3 Target:  Host OS: Ubuntu 10.04 Virtualization tool: KVM Guest OS: Windows XP Sp3 objective is migrate this guest image to KVM so that the migration is seemless. How: Pre-planning: Shut off windows XP gracefully. It probably might make a difference. But in anycase, will be a good idea rather than land up in surprise You need reasonable space. nearly 3 times of ...
