GMail
Kind of lost touch with blogging completely in the past 2 months. Isn't that why I call myself the-worst-blogger?
Why do I wanna continue? Coz I wanna get the gmail account (Gmail is giving away email accounts to ppl using orkut or blogspot frequently). And why a GMail account? Coz of 1GB mail space and, of course, google-mania. I don't know how is it that the Google runners come up with such innovative ideas? It seems like they are going to conquer almost everything on the internet. And why not? At least the ulterior motive doesn't seem to be making money like the other companies yahoo and msn.
I had subscibed to the free launchcast for a week with an intention of continuing it for a year or so. But I found that it wasn't playing the songs that I wanted and wasn't any better than the free version. So I cancelled my membership within a week. I was expecting to give a feed-back so that they cud improve their service. But nope, they didn't ask any such thing. Made me feel that it was a plastic buisness that I dealt with. They wanted my money, but didn't care abt wat I wanted....
The attitude here can be described as Bill Gates has said in one of his speeches, "My main aim is to sell software: a software that makes profit. We are not here to work on rocket science software because it doesn't make such profit. I will sell oranges if they start making more profit than my software." (This is wat a friend had heard in a lecture given by Bill Gates to his Microsoft employees.)
Rest later...
