How often do we need to use search engine when we are using internet, one would say most of
the time and when one ask which engine do u use most of use would say google.
we have all used google simple search engine many times but most of us have not heared
about google search engine known as RealTime. A new type of google search engine which
result in search from latest news related to your search from various social networking sites
such as facebook status, twitter and other sites such as yahoo answere, news and many more.
You can also filter the result based on the location you want or pages from India. For Example :
I typed in real time search INDIA and got post from Facebook which was made few seconds
ago. So, RealTime is good way to know whats happening around related to the keyword you
have searched. If you are visiting a city and want to know whats happening in the city, Realtime
is a good way to know the latest updates about the city.
Have a look at it in the image above.

| Sunday, December 19, 2010
Have you ever thought of knowing about the router you are using ie the operating system on which it works, memory it uses, various process which run on it etc.
This post will tell you how to know all this stuff. here I go.

Through Command Line:
Open Command Prompt by typing cmd in Run.Then type “Telnet 192.168.1.1” (don’t use inverted commas). You need login and password which is usually admin and password respectively(I have a modem of Beetel). If login is not possible the you can find the login information of your respective modem on the internet according to the company.
Once you login, you are done. Now you can get the desired information. Routers are configured on linux. Various information which you can obtain are:
1) First you need to know the shell which your router or modem is using. Just type the sh command. It will display
BusyBox v1.00 (2005.09.20-19:57+0000) Built-in shell (msh)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
Here msh is the shell type.
2) You can get the version of the shell. Just type # cat /proc/version.
3) Get the Ram information using # cat /proc/meminfo.
4) Get the CPU information using # cat /proc/cpuinfo.
5) Get list of various kernal modules using # cat /proc/modules.
6) Get default routing information using the command # route.
7) Various process which run under a modem or router can be seen through # ps.

Note: These all are Linux commands.

Through Graphical User Interface you can login through your browser where you get a menu with various setting option such as ipforwarding, proxy settings, gateway and lots of other setting.
