How to make 1800 calls to the U.S from India for free

I have tried making 1800 toll free calls to the U.S.A with BSNL and with Airtel landlines and it was just impossible. In fact with Airtel you cannot even dial 1800 numbers inside India that was when I last used an Airtel land line almost two years ago. If any of you know how to make such a call with BSNL land line phones to the U.S let me know.

However you can call any 1800 number in the U.S and for free using Skype. I am not sure if you can call similar toll free numbers in other countries but you can call the U.S. Just select destination country as United States and call. No charges are made to your account.

How you can get bad publicity for your organization



These are the guys behind an emerging website for teens called teenfrage.com (Frage, the German word for question). The pic appeared in The Nxg pages of the The Hindu, dated October 23'rd, 2008. The website is about helping teens facing all kinds of problems in their growing-up years. I am sure problems related to relationships and physical relations must be one of the most frequent questions being asked but the words on the t-shirt of the dude on the left is only sending out the wrong message instead. What conselling can you expect from this guy and how much can you trust his advice?

What a forerunner for a wedding

A small new family in the neighbourhood

As I approached the cat and her little ones sleeping with her, the vigilant mother instantly woke up at the sounds of my footsteps.



And after taking the first picture the sound from my camera was enough to wake up the kittens too.

ISS 2007 participants, singing in a new movie

The movie is the Nadia Moidu starrer, "Pattalam" in Tamil and the music director, Jassie Gift. Jassie has roped in Najeem, Thushar(who sings two songs), Arun Gopan(2 songs), Hesham and William Isac for this movie's songs. Wonder why Jassie didn't select the female singers.

Listen to the songs here.

Not a major album but "Engo Piranthom" is a well-sung by Arun Gopan and "Panivizhum Kaalama" is catchy.

My new blog goes live

Yes, another one. This one's on my favorite musical instrument, the guitar. I tried learning it several times only to give up sadly. But at least I have a blog to show my love and appreciation. Check it out. http://guitar-appreciation.com
