WTF!


I was appalled to see this appear in today's newspaper. If you did not figure out what I am trying to point out, it's the details of the student's caste next to one's name.

I am not sure whether the esteemed IIT coaching insti thought atleast for a sec that this is supposed to be a personal (and confidential) fact as far as the student is concerned. If the head of an IIT coaching insti is unable to sensitize himself on this issue, god only knows whats in store for us.

Help!

I have a yahoo email ID which is now totally junk that I do not even want to open it these days. I also have a gmail ID which is more sane, thanks to gmail's much better spam protection algorithm. The problem is that I login to orkut using my yahoo ID and somehow I have a google account, the username of which is "rpradeephere at yahoo.co.in". My orkut and this blog is associated with this account. However my saner google account rpradeep.kumar at gmail.com is associated with my picasa and email stuff.

I want to shift or change my yahoo-google account's orkut and blog to my saner google account so that I need to just login once. Every time I login to check my gmail, my orkut or blog will sign off since I cant keep two google accounts open at same time. Also the computer is confused over which password to save and crap and hence everytime I end up typing my username password. I am going bonkers coz of this!
