Till last year I did pretty much not know what is a web hosting and how a website is hosted. But with the passage of time, I came to know what actually is website hosting and how a website is hosted. I myself have a couple of website hosting accounts on the internet which are hosting couple of dozen websites. I find myself very relaxed sometimes after looking at the performance of some of my websites. In the meanwhile, when I look into some website, I wonder how they will be managed, as any time the host shut them off due to large traffic requirement, and even once I experienced a downtime of over 3 days for few of my websites.

This resulted in a lots of traffic going away and eventually I had to change the hosting of mine. As the websites begin to grow each working day I have now planned to get adedicated server web hosting for myself but I am unable to choose between a few hosts like the planet, rack space, and others. I am still wondering if I should go for an advanced VPS system so that I do not have to spend lot of money on my hosting bills but you know each managed dedicated server or VPS comes with a 1 hour guaranteed replacement of hardware. So, I would be relaxed in choosing them. If you have any of them in mind be sure to tell me.

Today I attended a conference on technology, its after effects and other things, the main topic of the conference was Role of ICT in developing Rural India , the main people who attended the conference were experts from the various fields of technology , IT and other fields like NGO’s as well.
Technology has helped many people like me and others as well; I would like to elaborate some of the popular things like

1. Online shopping : Technology has made possible for each one of us to believe that they can shop online, and in fact many of us do shop online whether one thing or other. The largest site on the web Amazon is one example of the same.
2. Personal Debts: There have been instances of people having personal debts and taking loans from Banks but now a days, it has become very much easy to obtain a short loan from bank. Credit Cards do the same. Infact there are several Credit Card Offers on credit cards from banks that offer the cards so that the people who own the cards do not have problems in repaying them.
3. ATMs : Due to technologies present with us , there have been widespread use of ATMs to withdraw the money from ATMS and even, the people traveling internationally can get their money abroad without any problems as such.

I guess you might be able to find out some technological aspects around you and if you live in village , you might not find out one but still you will have to make a group and pressurize the local authority to get the work done.

Gmail Sign In Page is generally available at gmail.com or mail.google.com/mail. However sometimes users complain that they cannot sign into their Gmail Account with these URL’s. There can be several reasons for this but it is most likely to be one of these.

Slow Internet Speed:

Gmail makes use of Ajax, employing browser features such as JavaScript, keyboard access keys and Web feed integration .Therefore it takes a lot of time to load and with slow internet connections it often ends up in a never ending loop.

To avoid this ensure that you don’t have any script blockers installed on your browser.

If you are using a slow internet connection make sure that you sign in to Basic HTML mode here. If you have decent internet connection but still Gmail Sign in Page is redirecting you to a never ending loop, Press ‘Ctrl+’F5′ key as Gmail loading screen appears ,your Gmail inbox will appear quickly.

Gmail Server Side Problems

Gmail is a freely available global service and has millions of registered users. This puts a lot of load on already over burdened Gmail Servers, which could be a possible reason for lack of service.

Gmail Blocked at your Work Place:

If you are having trouble finding Gmail Sign in Page at work, it is possible that access to Gmail has been restricted or completely blocked at your workplace. You can look at following alternatives in that case.

The first option is to create a Gmail filter. Type your email address in the To: box and then select “Forward all incoming email”. You can select any other email service that’s accessible from office and Gmail will auto-forward all incoming email to this address.

The other option is to use Gmail RSS Feeds. You can use Google Reader, Newsgator, Bloglines or any other newsreader and add a new feed with the URL https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom - then submit your Gmail address and password. All new messages can now be read inside your RSS reader.

Blocked Cookies

Gmail uses cookies to auto check for new mails while you are logged into your account. Make sure your clean your browser cache, temporary internet files and the cookies. This is very likely to solve your Gmail Sign In problems.

ISP Problems

It is possible that your Internet Service Provider is the main culprit behind the Gmail Problems. You can check this by asking your friends who uses the services of the same ISP.

Few More Workarounds

Use http://m.gmail.com (the mobile version of Gmail). It is pretty basic but it works.

Instead of typing www.gmail.com, try https://mail.google.com/mail

Go to www.google.com/ig and add a Gmail module there. That’s the fastest way to check your Gmail inbox .

There is solution for each and every problem that is present in the world, be it related to humans, machines or animals. Likewise there had been a problem with data management and storage, with new technology advancements and inventions of high speed drives, there is an added risk as well.
This risk is all about your important data and information. Consider a simple case scenario where you are going in for a presentation and suddenly find out that the laptop you are carrying broke , or the hard disk crashed etc, what will you do ?
Simple , plug in your portable drive where you have taken the backup but it is not so simple, many organizations have a policy of removal of USB ports from their computers so that their data does not get leaked outside. Then what would you do ?
As I mentioned earlier, there is a solution to each and every problem in the world and then the solution to above mentioned problem is a storage space on internet with Ibackup.
Ibackup.com provides Online Backup which are secured and encrypted. I used other service providers like S3 but they are not able to provide you with an interface like Ibackup which is needed for a layman in data backup.
Unlike others Ibackup can provide you with spaces of more than 100 Gb up to 4Tb in Raid 5 storage so that your data is always online but for that amount of data, you can send your own Hard Disk to them. I guess that you might be able to transfer that amount of data in your lifetime if you are in a country where you have low internet speeds or capped limit of internet.
