Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,
Hemen Parekh

Now as I approach my 90th birthday ( 27 June 2023 ) , I invite you to visit my Digital Avatar ( www.hemenparekh.ai ) – and continue chatting with me , even when I am no more here physically

You will recall that after we launched promo email campaign in early July, traffic reached a peak of 714 visits on 15th July

By yesterday, it has dropped to  20  !

Pages had nearly ceased to load

Reason ?

Web server had got severely infected with virus

To day, Nitin / Hardik / Kailas will reformat server and reinstall operating system / mailing software / entire site

This is just for your info

How is progress on JAM icon software for Android ?

How about an icon in the shape of an ordinary earthen lamp, with word “ J o b s “ carved inside ?

Lamp symbolizes , triumph of light over darkness ; of hope over despair

We can use it since it is NOT the election symbol of either Congress or BJP – the two main , pan India political parties

Even people in villages ( where electricity does not reach ) will identify themselves with a Lamp !

God said “ Let there be light and there was light “. We must bring light into the lives of millions of jobless, who have mobiles but no PCs !

Vote them out


Vote  them  out  ?



Who may India vote out in 2014 Lok Sabha elections ?

Possibly,

Ø   Manish  Tiwari  ?

Ø   Digvijay  Singh  ?

Ø   Laloo  Yadav  ?

Ø   Kapil Sibal  ?

Ø   P. Chidambaram  ?


But then who knows, they may not even wish to contest !

If you wish to expand this list, you have 3 years to do so. Then find a way to circulate amongst your friends. They may want to “ nominate “ some of their own favorites !

This is my concept of people giving “ Negative Tickets “, ahead of political parties giving “ Positive Tickets “ !


With malice towards none and goodwill for all,

On  7th  Day  of  Fast


Since time is running out on 7th day of Anna's fast, I suggest following :

>   We must bring UPA Govt into minority

>   To stage dharna outside the homes of  UPA MPs is not enough

>   People must stage indefinite fasting in front of the homes of these MPs ( of course, peacefully ) till they resigns their parliamentary seats

>   Collect all these resignations and handover to Annaji on 30th Aug in a million strong procession ( absolutely peaceful ). For all that he has done for us – and continues to do – this is the least we can do

>   At the moment, this is your only " Right to Recall " your MPs. Exercise it.

I hope Hardik has been able to prepare one

When can I see a copy ?

In the meantime, I find that the counters ( No of Jobs / No of Employers ) are showing increases for the last 2 days – which means, RSS feeds have re-started

At our end, Kailas has gradually stepped up dispatch of promo emails

As a result, over the last 3 days, no of visits have gone up from 95 to 105 to 146 ( yesterday ).

He will try to push many more emails today – and over the week-end – so that the upward trend keeps up

For the past 30 days, the no of visits came down from 9000 ( previous 30 days ), to about 5000 !

In fact, the no of visits have been coming down steadily since reaching a peak on July 15

This despite the fact that Kailas has been trying to send out promo emails as usual

What Kailas discovered yesterday was that , apparently, someone managed to get access to our promo email server ( thru Airtel 4 Mb line ? ) and has been sending out spam emails using our bandwidth !

As a result ( ? ), our own promo emails were getting stuck in a spool in IM Server and just not going out !

Obviously this is very serious – especially since we upgraded the 512 Kb to 4 Mb line – hoping that this would speed up the delivery of emails

While Kailas is trying to find some permanent / failsafe solution with the help of some friends, I would appreciate if you have any suggestion.

In the meantime, I would request you to check up if job advt RSS feeds are working or not. For the past 4/5 days, the No of Jobs Counter ( Job Suggest / Jobsearch page ) has remained same at 312,700 .

RSS feeds


Shuklendu / Nitin



This morning I noticed that the counter “ No of Jobs “ shows 31,809. That is an increase of 109 job advts.

Apparently, RSS feed for one of the three job sites has started working – most probably, ClickJobs, considering the very small increase.

You may want to check-up on this. Normally, on an average, this counter used to go up by approx. 1000 everyday .

Second batch of 43 lakh records received from Ajay


Shuklendu / Nitin



This has ref to our telecom yesterday

I am looking forward to receive early next week, a time-frame for various activities to be undertaken in respect of making our site

Ø human-user friendly ( especially the speed with which pages get downloaded )

Ø spider friendly ( especially crawling / indexing, all job advts at “ Job search by job title “ / Jobsearch – conventional / Jobsearch – magic cube / Job archive  “  AND all 47 lakh candidate records at “ Is this your resume “ page )

During our discussion you suggested that the very first item that you would like to take up would be redesigning the database in such a way that we could upload all the 25 fields instead of just 6/7 fields.

Such a re-design would enable us to upload ( all 25 fields of ) recently received database.

I suppose, such a re-design would mean that we would need to up-load all over once again, those 47 lakh records which we up-loaded during the last one month !

But if it has got to be done, then we got to do it !

You suggested that in the first instance, we should upload the second batch of 43 lakhs.

This is ok with me. However, before we start uploading, I would like to see the “ Template / Prototype “ of the revised “ See Resume “ page, which incorporates all 25 fields.

Obviously, these 25 fields should be logically sub-grouped in 4 or 5 blocks ( as against 2 blocks at present )

Tushar has already extracted from the second batch, and grouped together, some 30 folders containing these 4345620 records- after spending many hours.

By a copy of this mail, I am asking Kailas to copy these onto ONE CD / DVD and send to you. This will facilitate Hardik’s work.
