My suggestion for all is "go mobile" smartphones are now available in really less cost when compared to laptops and desktops in addition to that they can make calls too
Some providers are giving unlimited internet for their postpaid customers so get a smartphone with a good data plan and be online wherever you go

Why not go for wireless internet providers
After reading all that rubbish you may ask me "Are you a fool to use mobile internet services" when there are lot of wireless services available
for that i first need to buy a laptop or desktop "good" i can buy one and next i need to shell down some money for subscribing to wireless services there are wireless providers giving high speed broadband services
my question is,
1. are they affordable?
2. Getting them is a bit difficult when compared of getting a new mobile prepaid connection
3. They say high speed broadband connection but in most of the areas in our country doesnt have that infrastructure implemented
4. Finally availing a costly one which doesn't gives us what they are intended to do

Why mobile service providers in INDIA doesnt offers good data plans anymore(mainly prepaid users)
I became a hard core mobile fan by late end of my engineering career and love to browse internet in mobile device, really liked internet service given by my provides because no other provider was giving unlimited internet access and download for 24 hrs at a meagre 20rs, there was also a weekly plan where you get unlimited internet access and download for 75 rs, and a monthly plan for 375rs for the same, is that a good deal?? A big YES from me, its icing on a cake for a die-hard mobile internet user and i wonder if someone denies it
all above i have mentioned is only for airtel users in TN circle, i agree offers varies from state to state
i was using it to the fullest extent including for my project works
Things changed and i moved to hyderabad because i got a job there the moment i went there i stuck to the same provider(Airtel ) only for the internet services they offer and boy i was happy(i can check mails, chat with my friends, download songs, update my profile(orkut,youtube),check for updates for my mobile, download softwares for my mobile a lot more) to my surprise the services were even cheaper when compared to TN but there was a blessing in disguise from airtel here, only daily plans were available at 15rs/24hrs, no weekly plans and no monthly either, thats a real bummer
But that didnt hurt me a lot as i was busy with my work too and activated it only on my weekly offs things went on smooth and in came a message to me
"Dear customer the unlimited gprs plan is withdrawn and you can access rental free internet service at a "pathetic" 30ps/50kb"
why on earth you do that without giving any proper justification, the next moment i called their customer services and had a go at them and till now i didnt get any proper answer from them, torrid customer response
Days went past and there are no signs that they are going to reinstate that service and also there was no one word answer YES or NO from them
So what basically a customer do "move to another provider" i did that and choose RelianceGSM and enquired about their internet services it is next to horrible and they are not even close to what Airtel gave me but i am having an eye on their internet services because they are the only 3G ready provider once the 3G auctions roll out i will consider them
So still i am stranded by not getting the deal i wanted from any providers
Then came the revolutionary TATA DoCoMo try this too said my instincts also they charge per second "Great" other providers fall on their feet, what can they offer for customers like me well they too followed the herd in mobile internet services, the best available from them is 10ps/10kb
Coming back to airtel they came back with some decent offers like do a RC 28 and get 15mb free valid upto 7 days, RC 94 get 100mb valid upto 1 month but none close to what they are capable of "Why cant you give unlimited internet back" is that because of recession you couldn't afford, there can only be assumptions not confirmations
so still i hope in near future they will reinstate back

Chronicles of krishNIA
Things I wanted to tell others,
I really was not interested in doing this anyway as a last resort i need some space to fill out so, i want to share chronicles of mine
I dont want to come from the school days for the fact that i could hardly recollect any incidences which i can publish here and moreover the real change happended when i was made to study engineering. I dont want to study engg instead i was eager to get into Loyola college to do B.sc physics since i scored well in that subject in Higher secondary, I never thought that finally i will end up getting an enginnering seat(ECE) in Adhiparasakthi engg college, Melmaruvathur. I dont want to blame anyone for this, ultimately thats Destiny, I accepted it and made up my mind to pursue engg at that college, initial days of my college was really terrible as i have to travel a lot of distance from my residence i should mention here the Train no. 104 which runs between chennai egmore and villupuram at that time, only thing good about my college life was this train journey when the head count travelling by this train to college increased by each and every semester it was great time for us enjoying the journey. At this point of time everything went topsy turvy for me i will start early in the morning from house and come late by return, i could hardly see my school friends nearby my house and i was really moaning to my self why did I do this ??
Semesters rolled by and i got accustomed to the routine set up and the only foremost this which was running in my mind is to finish this damn course. In college lot happended and i was having a good rapport(I think i am honest here??) with almost everyone i sat with and happy days came inside the class room when i relocated my place from the first row to penultimate of last row there was both advantages and disadvantages but the latter was less when compared to the former. It was an ideal place to sleep, mock, look everything also the guy who was sitting near synced with me in all those things which made me feel happy. In the hind sight by almighty's grace i was able to clear all semesters without arrears with a above average percentage( I am a bit "paddips")
There was one company which decided to give me a job for what i was capable of GREAT!! i was on cloud nine when i got the Offer from them at this point of time i decided one thing "WE SHOULD BE COMPLACENT WITH WHAT WE HAVE GOT" it was a BPO job which others prescribed to me as not the one for u MAN!! that was poking me a lot and i thought i should not fall once again into the TRAP of overratism, i very well knew that my well wishers wants me to see as something different and i regret that i have disappointed them and at back of my mind i need to stick to what i am capable of which i rightly did ..
So here we go!! so as called the part in ur career which transforms an individual into an respectable position JOB PLACE. I was lucky enough that i got into a Work atmosphere which i never had thought that i would get in. My initial phase of training was communication training where i got an oppurtunity to be a student of this great lady my communication trainer( "Vanzi" training as they call in BPOs) Ms.Malar Ph.d in English(My apologies that i couldn't recollect the university from which she got that), after Mr.K.S.Pandiyan who was everyone's inspirational staff of ECE dept,APEC i met a teacher who can make an impact apart from teaching. Such a calm, composed, benign Lady who has a very good expertise in the language taught us how the way it should be dealt and only from there i came to how the words should be pronounced as far as persons i have come across she was the one who didnt show up any signs of tense and hard faces ( I am not hurting anyone here Sorry if i sound like that). With her inputs about the language i was pushed up prior to other members in the batch to the next level of training which was technical training. Nothing great happended here!!
After the technical training got over (there was a talk that people who clears Vanzi training will no need to worry about technical training since it is for name sake, so i didnt take tech trainig that seroiously though i performed good there but not outstanding) our batch was sent to the Floor to take calls till that point of time we didnt know that we are going to speak to UK people directly, the company i worked with for was BT(British telecom)in HCL. First month of calls took the S**t out of us and we were totally humiliated by UK customers then later we came to know the process very well and our team was first on the floor for each and every month. One more interesting fact is that language got fine tuned in the due course we were(all who were involved in the process) able to speak english with much ease and most of the cases without flaw this point i was really satisfied that i have gained something out of this work and one of my colleague who even got visa to study in UK just for the sake that he was totally comfortable with the UK accent in the voice test they kept for him in the consultancy through which he fled to UK
Slowly the process was getting tougher with calls flooding in and the job became hectic for me and for the rest of the members too. There was complete unity in us and information was shared among ourselves in a healthier way also it was very competitive i was really happy that i have got into environment where u can share ideas and work as a team. I liked the Work culture but not the Work so i decided to leave this one and try for someother job
