Agree with Goobi in that. Very difficult to find and click on 'more' button.

Usually the blog post title is a link and that is very easy for visitors.

On a second look, I see it is not the blog url but list of blog entries, still I think it is a good idea to make it links (I see they are ok in the actual blog url)

Time for some free publicity :D

The truth about the Macbook Air being hacked in 2 minutes...

If you read any news related to technology, you must have come across this headline, "Macbook Air Pwned in 2 minutes". Well the truth is a little deeper than that.

First of all it doesn't have anything to do with the Macbook Air. No one mentioned that it was a Lenovo X28382 or a Acer PZQRT45-c for the other models. It is what software it is running and not the hardware configuration.

Secondly, it wasn't OS X that was vulnerable. It was Safari. Agreed Safari is very much a part of OS X, but it still is a separate software on it's part. It has now been patched btw.

Thirdly, it wasn't really hacked in 2 minutes! No sir.
No one was able to execute code on any of the systems on Wednesday, the first day of the contest, when hacks were limited to over-the-network techniques on the operating systems themselves. But on the second day, the rules changed to allow attacks delivered by tricking someone to visit a maliciously crafted Web site, or open an e-mail....read the full entry

^^ Could we maybe be able to click the post title instead of hunting for the "more" button?

Thanks Milind. I'll do that ASAP.

Thanks Din sir.
Yes the main page is not the blog. It'll list the blog entries & hot forum posts.

Anything else? Interface, look & theme? I want something else as logo & will change it when I get it(Hint, Hint Milind :D ) or if I create it myself.
Ideas about blog posts?

Jaxtr : A VOIP-based social networking community

Jaxtr : A VOIP-based social networking community

The ever-growing list of Social Networking communities sees yet another aspirant - Jaxtr. However, what may help it stand out from the crowd, is the fact that has also employed a VOIP-based form of communication rather than just plain text. It also allows one to send free SMS-es to any cellphones/landlines in over 155 countries, India included. The community, which was in Beta testing, finally came out with a stable release this February 25th.

Signing up is simple - fill up a few info and you can start sending out SMS-es right away, even before your registered email id is verified. However one thing that I found extremely odd was that while registering, you need to enter the password only once.....

Thinkdigit.com Hacked !!!! (Digit's site hacked, but hacker causes no harm)

Thinkdigit.com Hacked !!!! (Digit's site hacked, but hacker causes no harm)

It is a development that is sure to have far reaching ramifications on the credibility of the organisations concerned. It was recently revealed that an unauthorized individual had succeeded in gaining access to the administrator control panel of the Thinkdigit.com site. The site in question is the online face of the Digit magazine, a popular and quite easily the highest selling Technology-oriented magazine in India. The ownership of the magazine had recently taken over by 9dot9 Media, a relatively new media group headed by Dr. Pramath Raj Sinha.
