Google set to battle Microsoft
GOOGLE is set for a fierce battle against bitter rival Microsoft after announcing plans to create a new computer operating system. The search engine will make its own version of the software brain that makes our PCs work, going head-to-head with the Windows systems currently used on hundreds of millions of machines worldwide. And Google promise security will be one of the key features of the software in a bid to do away with the need for separate virus blockers.

Indian Web users decry the "gag" on blogs
Bangalore : Thousands of Internet users in India have been unable to access blogs (or Web logs) since the weekend. Throughout Monday, angry customers of almost all major Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in the country exchanged mails and flooded user group sites with postings to report that blogs, created using the free space provided by Web services like Geocities, Typepad and Blogspot (a Google initiative), could not be opened. Many were told that the blog sites had been blocked in response to a directive from the Department of Telecommunications (DoT).
Reporting the gag : The Indian portal, Rediff.com http://rediff.com/ was the first to report the trend on Sunday, quoting a Gurgaon teacher, Mridula Dwivedi, who had discovered the anomaly while trying to visit Blogsite.com http://blogsite.com/blog. Since then, other bloggers established that the "cyber gag" had emanated from a communication from the Central Government on July 13 to all the ISPs, listing some 20 odd sites — mostly blogs — which were to be blocked forthwith.
