If you have a Google account, you can sign in before searching for anything and Google will keep track of what you are searching and somehow modify the results according to your history of searches. Also, your personalized Google homepage has a lot of options to select from. You can look at the day’s weather or look at all the headlines or maybe look for where a movie is being screened.

One interesting feature is the ‘How-to of the Day’. Google takes it from the WikiHow site. As the name suggests it is a wiki site and so anyone can edit it. So you can search from previous ‘How to’, request for a ‘How to’ and even start a new ‘How to’. However, to start a new ‘How to’, you need to fill in a whole lot of things so that your audience is satisfied with your description. The things you need to fill include:

1. Title
2. Summary (An overview of the task that pulls the reader in More Info)
3. Steps (The main section giving step by step instructions explaining how to do it)
4. Tips
5. Warnings

One interesting ‘How to’ was ‘How to adopt a baby from China’. Why did this ‘How to’ spring up in the first place. Adding to that it occupied the top slot in the list of Featured Articles. Is it that people have started viewing China as the manufacturing hub of people, apart from other things they are using which are ‘Made in China’? Or may be people realize that, since China has the largest population, it also offers the best choice. The page also shows the photograph of a Chinese child with the caption ‘Perhaps your newest family member’. I think if that child belongs to a family, and the family is not willing to let someone adopt the child, they should sue whoever included the photo.

Moving further, an article about the B.Tech project of my friends, Mr. NJ and Mr. SS came in the Delhi edition of the newspaper, Hindustan Times on Thursday. It was about a surveillance system they are developing. It was kind of an achievement which was to be followed by their interview on NDTV. We all waited switching between the many NDTV channels. However the interview was not aired on Thursday but is expected to air sometime on Friday or Saturday.

I read the article in the newspaper and was quite happy at the prospects of getting a treat. Mr. NJ had also mentioned my name to the journalists but somehow it did not appear in the article. He had mentioned about me being the source of his inspiration, and how it was because of my moral support that he was able to come to this point. The journalists took his honesty for modesty. Everyone here knew how my mentorship was behind all this, and so were lamenting. Also, it should be kind of embarrassing for the people of the hostel of Mr. NJ. These people had given the Best B.Tech project award to someone else last week. The candidates for the award were those who had voted for them in the hostel elections some days before.
