mobikwik.com for recharging your mobile
I just tried to recharge my idea netsetter 3G connection using the idea cellular portal. I could not easily locate the recharge link (Guess they have removed it now)
I was searching for other online options and I found out http://www.mobikwik.com/.
It was very smooth and I could recharge my connection within few minutes.
Although they offer some discounts on other services, I have not used them.
But for sure will use the recharge option from next time onwards as I can store my multiple numbers at one place and recharge easily.
All in all, good service.

Gmail, Yahoo Internet Firms asked to route mails through the servers in India
The Internet Content provider companies like Gmail and Yahoo would be asked about routing the mails access of Indian Users through the servers in the country. These companies are asked to route the mails even if the account is not registered in India and is out side India. This is because security agencies in India don’t have the real time access to the mails registered out of India.
Now the companies are asked to route all types of mails through the Indian Servers for security reasons. After the high level meeting which was held at the office of Home Secretary Singh, Department of the IT is asked to take all of the mail related security matter with those companies. In this meeting director general of the Indian Cyber Community said that Yahoo automatically locates the mail accounts which are registered on the servers in India, but for the mail accounts that are registered outside India Yahoo don’t have direct access in India.
So the purpose of the meeting was to make Yahoo to route all of the mails through the servers in India so that they can be monitored for the security purposes. The information technology department of India will not take this matter to all of the content provider companies and will discuss the gravity of this issue of routing the mails through Indian servers.
The need of this issue came up when the security agencies of India were not able to access the mails of Indian mujahideen during the terrorist activities. The suspected terrorists were not been surveillance by the Indian security agencies as the servers were located out of India. So the accessing became harder and routing of the mails through the Indian servers is the only option left for the Indian Security Agencies to control and check the suspicious mails in India.

Previous year when Indian Government had agreed to permit Qualcomm Company to provide its internet service in India, Now Qualcomm is ready with it strategies to provide its Wireless Broadband services in India. Qualcomm is basically a chip making company from U.S. and wants to provide its Wireless Broadband Services to Indian customers. As the reports from Economic Times says that Qualcomm is finally ready for the Indian Customers to serve its high speed broadband services. Company has finally ready to go and have settled all of the differences.
When Qualcomm applied for this permit in June 2010, it paid around 4,913 Crore for the internet service in India. The main zones selected by the company at that time were Delhi, Haryana, Mumbai and Kerala. Now its planning to make customers with its high speed internet broadband services in all of the regions mentioned above. Qualcomm will get the final permit to provide its services in next four weeks if it pays the 410 crore fee on the behalf of the Tulip Telecom. After that it will get the permit in the next seven days.
Qualcomm Company’s permit was not accepted before because they didn’t apply for the licence of the internet service in the three main months of the auction for network permit. The reason was that the auction in 2010 ended in the month of June and Qualcomm applied a bit late in the December of 2010. This was the primary reason why company didn’t get the permit in the early times.
Qualcomm also applied for 4 companies permit but it was rejected so now it has merged the quest of all four into one permit request. It was the violation of the rules by applying under the names of four different companies. So when Qualcomm merged them into one entity the permit request is under consideration.
