Social Media and sports is a great combo, or so have history proven. The latest sensation in Indian sports – IPL is embracing social media this time and “it is big”.
Watch IPL matches on YouTube live as it happens !

YouTube has opened a dedicated channel for IPL and will stream live cricket as it happens. There will be a delay of some minutes but that’s okay for fans worldwide. Not only YouTube but even Twitter and Orkut is pulled in this time and they’re gonna make sure you miss nothing this time.

Any ways there’s no stopping Google form customizing its search result pages. And this time, its introduced a brand new option, that which will enable you to bookmark websites that you like right [...]
Tracking user behaviour on a site can be quite tricky, I agree. You get lot of questions instead of answers starting from what metrics to track and what tools to employ to how long to track a metric. Having said that, I should admit that heatmaps are fun to look at and a more easy [...]
To a lot of people, finding out what their audience wants is a big deal.
They’ll run tests, view heatmaps of their site, perform in person studies and at times, still not provide what their audience is really looking for. Despite me writing an article with some of these suggestions, I’m a big believer in the [...]
