Hmmm, Adsense publishers from around the world had very bad year! Can you remember the days that you got $2 per click every time? World Economic crisis *was hit adsense market on the past year very badly.
People including me got $0.01 clicks. That made the whole day bad! I didn’t targeted adsense very much but you can estimate the pain when we see $0.05 for 5 ad clicks because it used to be more than $5 a year or months ago.
But now the economic is growing and phase is good. Companies begun to earn profits again. And adsense looks recovering too. I can see adsense is coming to normal state since last few weeks. And it should be nice news for web masters but its not like it used to be in 2007 but nice changes.
I would love to hear your experience also in comments about this! So are you doing good these days?

I receive vast amount of traffic daily to that post! And I have written the whole procedure to unlock huawei HSDPA modems on that post. If you read it you will see it. And a part of it is calculating the unlock code for the specific huawei modem and the whole procedure is there.
But people keeps asking me how to calculate the unlock code and I recieve at least 2 comments daily asking the unlock code Finally I made the calculating part highlighted !
Why cant they calculate code themselves by reading the steps its briefly explained there?
Yes that’s my question. Answer it if you can!

Ok This might be not new thing to you. There are many whois checkers on internet to check the identity information and registration information of domain names. Most of them only provides domain registrant info and registration time period.
Other few provides some other information such as server information that the domain hosted etc. But the problem is most of those advanced whois checkers require to fill captcha form or filling some kind of identity form to check a domain. This is little bit boring and hard if you want to check many domains a day.
There is a handy tool to check all the domain registration information and hosted server information its whois.domaintools.com
Whois.domaintools.com provides great information about domain names. You can register there for free and then you can query unlimited amount of domains without filling Captcha puzzles or boring steps.
Only you have to do is add the domain name that you want to check after whois.domaintools.com/
Such as if you want to check www.ruchirablog.com whois info and server info you need to add ruchirablog.com after /
ex- whois.domaintools.com/ruchirablog.com and it will display all the data that external source can obtain.

As a typical blogger I receive some reasonable amount of spam on my comments queue. This blog is fairly small but so its not a huge problem for me.

But for a blogger who owns a blog getting thousands of visitors a day they will be facing problems of managing the spam and comments. I receive about 10 spam comments a day most of them are rubbish and I dont know why spammers use 100s of words for their spam like this-

Such kind of spams very easy to caught and about all of them gets caught as a spam on wordpress. If you are using wordpress you might be probably using akismet to filter spams on your comments queue. Akismet does nice job catching spams. But few creative spams ends on my blog uncaught.

Google’s most recent product goo.gl url shortener released few weeks ago for public use. People love to use google services including me. Previously I have used bit.ly and its great service because its user interface is great and provides details of how many users click the url and provides dashboard for members. But now Goo.gl is providing same functions.
So I have decided to try out goo.gl instead of bit.ly when shortening my urls for publishing on twitter.
