Many websites quote "NTC to compete with facebook." But I personally don't think thats the case. With search giant Google and Social King Facebook trying to be no 1, theres no way NTC can even think competing with either Facebook or Google Plus. But if Chautari is good enough to use then one cannot doubt its popularity in Nepal.
We should take this action of NTC as positive step towards establishing Nepal in a social networking platform.But the question is Was this really necessary?
Here are some of my personal feelings on chautari.
- NTC should have focussed on improving the current telecom services rather than launching a "so called" social networking site.
- Mobile services are not good enough and internet services provided are creepy too. If this is the way with chautari, i guess it will get down for maintenance or crash numerous times.
- On the positive side, I think this is a good initiative shown by them to initiate social networking within Nepal using Nepali experts. If they work hard on fixing current issues on telecom sector and maintain chautari well, then there is no doubt in success of chautari. GOOD LUCK NTC !
How do u feel about Nepal Telecom launching its own social networking site without focusing to solve the existing issues in telecom sector.Feel free to post your feelings about CHAUTARI on the comment section.

This is my first post on this series. In this post I will be writing about some basic configurations you need to do after installing ubuntu. I will also be writing on some of the basic application
to install after the fresh installation of ubuntu.
After installing Ubuntu, beginners bang their head and say " Where to start with?". Installing ubuntu is not a big deal. It is only the first step. The ubuntu you installed is raw. You should configure it to use it the way you want. Here are simple but important things you must perform after the fresh installation of Ubuntu.
Enable the repositories
Every time I do a fresh install of Ubuntu, the first thing that I do is to enable the universe, multiverse,backport and Canonical’s ‘partner’ repositories. These repositories open up new application choices and allows you to install popular third party software easily and quickly.
Go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager.
Click on Settings -> Repositories.
Checked all the boxes.
Update Repositories
- Goto System - Administration - Synaptic Package Manager and hit 'Reload' button OR simply do the following in Terminal.
- sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
Ubuntu-Restricted-extras
Can’t listen to MP3? Can’t watch Youtube video? Can’t run Java? Don’t worry, all you need to do is to install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package and it will install all the necessary files/codecs for you. Some common applications in the package include MP3 codec, Adobe Flash player, Java runtime and Microsoft core fonts.
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
Check For Availability of Proprietary Hardware Drivers
- In my case, all the hardware drivers including graphics and wireless drivers were enabled automatically. But this may not be the case with everyone.
- If you are on the other side, simply goto System - Administration - Hardware Drivers and check whether if there are any drivers available and activate the ones you want.
Install Compiz Config Settings Manager
Compiz desktop effects are available in your Ubuntu by default and if you have any kind of 3D acceleration available(graphics driver ie), you are good to go with Compiz.
sudo apt-get install compizconfig-setting-manager
Install VLC Media Player
VLC media player is arguably the most comprehensive multimedia application available for Ubuntu. It is fast and has support for almost all multimedia formats.
sudo apt-get install vlc
These are some of application I add or changes I make after installing a fresh copy of ubuntu. This dosen't mean that this should be always done the same way. This is my personal choice and may differ to person to person. I will be writing on more application to install in my upcoming posts.

This month seems to be busy for Google. It launched all sorts of its products with Google+ being the most talked one. But other than Google+, "What Do You Love?" and Google+ button were also launched this month. With G+ getting all the hype this products are not being talked much.
Now again, after the quiet launch of "What Do You Love?", Google has quietly launched a social contest website called Prizes.org. The web site is operated by a company called Slide. It is the same social gaming company which Google acquired last year. Prizes.org allows users to create “contests” where they post questions or tasks. The user can then award a cash prize to the best answer received.
In the home page, prizes.org says:
"Post a task or question, offer a prize and let the crowd help you out!"
"Win real money by entering a contest. Receive votes for your entry and win big!"
"Contest creator will receive the work they asked for and winner will take home cash!"
Prizes.org is offered by Slide (part of Google Inc., located at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA, USA).

Google has launched a new site quietly asking you 'What Do You Love'. It seems to be the combination of all the searches which are shown in a petty neat way.
http://wdyl.com looks like the fusion of all google products till date. It has a heart shaped search button which is really appealing.

Please Dont missuse This ARTICLE. Its meant for "Educational Purpose" only or for helping those who have lost their PASSWORD.
This
should be used only when you forgot or lost your password and
not for hacking into somebody else’s system.Using this hack you
can reset your administrator password or leave it blank.
Few
days ago my friend came to me and told me that he can't login into
his windows administrator account. He was typing the correct password
but windows was not taking it. He was denied access to his
administrator account although he entered the correct password. This
kind of situation is really irritating.
Most
of us might have experienced a situation when we forget our Windows
administrator password.And we are not able to login into windows and
access our all necessary data and programs.At that time the only
solution that comes into or mind is the installation of fresh copy of
windows but this will lead to loss of all data and files that are in
the windows drive.
There
is also another way around using which you don’t need to install a
fresh copy of windows and without losing any data.We are providing
here the method to reset windows administrator password.This tutorial
is only for the purpose of recovering your windows 7,xp or vista
password.
Ubuntu
has become, far and away, the most popular distribution of Linux in
the world. Its ease of installation and use makes it the ‘go to’
operating system for an open source alternative. In this case you
don’t even have to install the OS. You simply use the Live CD that
is included with the burned ISO of Ubuntu.
Now
i will guide you through stepwise process to recover your windows
password:1. Go to Ubuntu and download the latest ISO of the operating system.
2.
Use one of the free
ISO burning applications to
create a bootable Ubuntu CD.
3.Use
the Live Ubuntu CD to boot into the live version of the OS.

After a while i haven’t write on my blog. Now i’m ready to start writing again. Probably you notice that i changed my theme and i am all charged up with lot more suffs. In this post i am writing how to make your ubuntu ready with Apache,PHP,MySql and PHPMyAdmin.
If you're developing websites, it's nice to be able to test your code in the privacy of your own computer rather that out in the public Internet. In order to do that, you'll need to install a web server on your development computer. LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, php) is one of the most common web hosting platforms, so it's a perfect environment for you to build and test your website code. If you carefully follow these step by step instructions, you'll have your own LAMP setup running in no time.
Lets start:
(Your ubuntu system must be connected to the Internet. All the highlighted text are to be executed in the shell)
1.Open your terminal and login as root with this command
su
2.Update your repositories list:
sudo apt-get update
