The last Google pagerank update was just on 24th May 2009 and we had discussed in brief about it. This pagerank update in June month is a bit early thinking Google has been doing it quarterly in past.

Google has become pretty strict about selling paid textlinks at your blogs and websites, and we have seen some impact on the blogs due to this I believe. So if your blog has been affected by latest pagerank update and lost the pagerank, I would suggest remove paid textlinks and send Google reconsideration request which certainly works for penalized websites and blogs.

After grand tournament of Indian Premier League (IPL), the cricket world is ready to enjoy ICC T20 World Cup in England from 5th June to 21st June. Though it’s not gonna last as long as IPL, it’s international tournament of 20-20 cricket matches, where rivals meet and that makes it more fun.

Total 12 teams - India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Australia, South Africa, West Indies, New Zealand, England, Scotland, Ireland and Netherland will participate in 2009 twenty20 cup.

ICC T20 (Twenty20) World Cup Ratings Explained

The ICC (International Cricket Council) has announced top two rated/ranked teams in each group and given them a number 1 and 2 respectively. They will retain this number irrespective of whether they finish first or second in the group.

For example if Bangladesh top ranked Group A and India finished second in the same group; India will still remain as A1 and Bangladesh will remain as A2 in Super Eights stages. If Ireland knockout Bangladesh in Group A then Ireland will become A2.

Here are the four group’s scenarios:

Group A – India (A1), Bangladesh (A2) and Ireland
Group B – Pakistan (B1), England (B2) and Netherlands
Group C – Australia (C1), Sri Lanka (C2) and West Indies
Group D – New Zealand (D1), South Africa (D2) and Scotland

Super Eight Groups

Group E –A1, B2, C1 and D2
Group F – A2, B1, C2, and D1

There is a strange but fact to be noted. Zimbabwe, the team which has been playing International cricket for quite some time and although their test & ODI performance were not upto the mark - they had beaten Australia in the inaugural twenty20 world cup in south africa.. yet - they have opted out of this 2nd T20 World Cup. The reason behind that is Zimbabwe cricket doesn’t think UK Government will issue visas for their team members!

Based on the performance in the first twenty20 World Cup - India have been awarded the easiest group along side Bangladesh and Ireland in this second Twenty20 world cup to be played in England in the month of June 2009.

12 teams are broken into group of 3 in first stage out of which - 2 teams will qualify for the second round where each team plays 3 more matches before qualifying for the semi-finals. .

World Cup twenty-twenty20 fixtures have a strange pattern where each qualifying team will play two teams which qualified at number 2 in their group whereas 1 match with winner of third group.. .

similarly - the team which qualifies 2nd in a group gets to play 2 matches against group winners & 1 match versus 2nd team of a group.

A 27 match tournament whose matches will be starting mainly at 2 different timings (5pm & 1.30pm according to UK timing) and to be played at only 3 stadiums across England.

Note that the final match will be played 2 hours earlier than usual night matches and Nottingham is the ground which is also known as Trent Bridge which is one of 3 venues in England hosting this cricket tournament.

India are the defending champions.

Warm-up games

1st June = Ireland vs Netherlands, Australia vs Bangladesh, India vs New Zealand and Pakistan vs South Africa
2nd June = Bangaldesh vs Sri Lanka, Ireland vs West Indies, England vs Scotland and Australia vs New Zealand
3rd June = Sri Lanka vs South Africa, Netherland vs Scotland, England vs West Indies and India vs Pakistan

But yes, yesterday while taking a round of rest of my blogs, I found out that Google has started acting up and changing the green bar.

You might see some volatility in your blog or website’s Pagerank this week. I did not find much change in PR for my blogs except few of them (I have plenty of blogs running around), but happy to listen to what you have been experiencing. Specially when Google was not expected to bring one more PR change within couple of months.

What we need to bother about Windows Registry?

Alright, one moment. Let’s gather on what I am talking about. I assume most of my visitors use the windows operating system (whether they like or don’t like it) and know that the windows registry is a database of settings and options for the operating system. Windows registry would have settings for hardware, software used in the system, user settings and many system specific settings. Windows registry would help providing run time information. It’s a very important part of operating system that required to be healthy.

Unfortunately Windows operating system does not keep the things tidy when we play with it by installing, uninstalling, accessing, running various programs on it. And it needs a health checkup often.

Registry Booster improved the System Performance

Since I bought my laptop couple of years back, I did not go for such registry health checkup and that’s why I could see 1596 registry errors found in my system that were fixed by Registry booster. I realized that my system was little slow in starting up, crashed few times and I knew something was going wrong and saw the need of looking at system carefully. To be honest, my laptop caused me lot of frustration

Finally yes, I bought registry booster software from Uniblue after my own research on the safest and reliable registry clean up software.

There is a reason I decided to buy one for £19.95, because I don’t want to give my system’s heart in hand of free health checkups. The registry is so important for any operating system, that it needs proper care and look after. I don’t say free software can’t provide that but instead of looking for one, I preferred to buy one and give it in safe hands.

Uniblue’s registry booster is an award winning software that already renowned all over, and with some good reviews across - I decided to give it a try as well.

Features that I liked in Registry Booster

• Registry booster offers no spam in gift. I get worried about some spam while I use free to download software that deal directly with core of my computer system. That’s why I never downloaded any free software while I knew that my system needed some check up.
• Simple to use software. Very easy user interface and visually appealing. You would never feel like lost into the tabs, it’s as easy as 1-2-3 to use the features offered by registry booster.
• Deep scanning of the system and detailed information on errors found in various sections during the scan as well as in the registry repair logs. You would literally come to know whether the problems are into Activex, COM sections, DDLs, File extensions and so on.

• Registry defragmentation helps your registry organize itself to improve on the performance and stability. That’s what my understanding about defrag from windows defragmentation process. If you have never tried it, let me tell you how it works. In terms of memory degrag, your operating system’s memory has been used so many times as and when required by applications that the pieces in the memory are all scattered across. This forces the operating system to gather the pieces from all over the memory at run time slowing down the performance. Now just imagine, all these relevant pieces are places together, it would be so quick to pick those up at run time. Exactly same thing would happen with registry defrag and it would be high performing for the OS to pick up the relevant information from defragmented registry. It ofcourse would contribute to stable and improved registry.
• Backups and restore of registry is so easy process from Restrore tab that you would be always go back to the stage in past in case unfortunately anything goes wrong or you are not happy with what was changed with the system registry. It’s more like a risk mitigation plan where if the risk occurs, you are able to restore the working solution. The backups are maintained in the Restore tab in latest registry backups and are allowed to be restored with one click.
• Piece of mind - that’s what I have now after the registry booster shows the system health status as HIGH from earlier LOW before running the scan and fixes. And it’s not like manipulative but it would keep on showing the real status depending on if you allow the registry booster software to fix those found errors.

Overall, I have observed the performance improvement of the system and is happy with my current investment in this software. It’s good to spend your money on good software that take care of your hassles and walk your system towards stability. Certainly, I am neither selling this software, nor in affiliation with them but purely giving away my recommendation on registry booster 2009 product in market.
