Folks,Help required. Any idea how to set up a audio blog. Is there any free site which would be ready to host my mp3 tracks?I am aware of sites like Big Content which would provide feed for these and also provide code to include them in my blog.But they do not physically host the audio content? Do leave your comments on sites which would host audio contents for free.

In my earlier post I had mentioned about Radio Verve which claims to be the first Indian Internet Radio service.However, ever wondered if the Desi/Indian music tune you were listening to is popular or how popular it is? Wondered what was India's favourite top ten music tunes last week?Was it Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna's Mitwa or was it a Western band or yet to be released Munabhai Lagao Raho title

Mushraff may slowly realise that making martyrs out of 80 year olds is not the best way to quell a civil revolt.Now, the great oil

As per Indian Astrology based on ancient vedic textbooks Pluto is not considered as a Planet. Its considered as a Upagraha or a minor planet.Looks like western science is playing catchup. :)Also, MERCURY is also not considered as planet, while Sun and Moon are.So should we wait for another clarification from Astronomey Society?Neptune and Uranus are considered as charu grahas or shadow planets.

India achieved a significant milestone in power generation by sync'ing power generation from North, East, South and western grids. Total grid capacity is assumed to 88,000 MW. This sync would eliminate blackout and rare cases of blackout grid is programmed to transfer power to deficient location.A great progress for India and congratulations to Power Grid corporation.
