I had earlier written about the death of one avaxsphere, but I am now gald to say that I was mistaken. They, for some reason, have simply changed the URL to their brilliant web portal to avaxhome. Check it out!! Its the very same avax that we all thought was gone.
It also has come to my knowledge that they have updated their database and now have loads of more excellent softwares and e-books for us.
Cheers to avax!!!

Best torrents search engines
I know that in a lot of places torrents are illegal, these are for the rest of the world who live on torrents. Here are some of the websites where you can get yourself amazing torrents:
1. Mininova: Most of you might already be knowing about this one. Its very popular for Audio and Video search. But if you want to download any software or book you might not want to look here cause that collection is not great in here. This place is particularly good for subtitles for movies, cause before downloading a torrent of a movie it gives an option for downloading the subtitles for the same movie.
2. IsoHunt: Yet again a very very popular torrent search engine. Excellent for Movies, Songs and also softwares. Yes, here you will find a wide range of amazing stuff if you do the searching properly.
3. Piratebay: Again amazingly good. Has pretty much of everything. The only drawback here is the adult advertisements that go on, on the side. Some people are not comfortable with those.
4. Torrentz: Thsi place is like a google search engine for torrent sites. Don't get me? Its like this, if you don't know where to find your download torrent, go to this place and it will point out all the torrent websites which have the download you are looking for. Pretty neat stuff it does.
5. Axxo: He has earned name and fame over the world for his excellent rips of movies. I too agree with the world about his print qualities, thankyou for everything dude!! And if you don't know about this one, please do check it out. He gives the most amazing, brillent quality movies. One thing ill tell about him is that, you can always trust his prints.
6. btmon: Calls itself the worlds biggest torrent database. I do not completely disagree with it, but being frank, sometimes I don't get what I need in here.
7. Torrentvally: I don't have much to say about this cause I never use this one. Its not because its no good or anything, just that I find what I need generally in '1' or '2'.
There are some more like torrent reactor, torrent portal, bit dig etc. but I never got the chance to try them out.

AVAX is DEAD :-( The very same avaxsphere we loved
I don't know how many of you guys used to logon to avaxsphere.com to download e-books and softwares but there is a bad news for all, avax is dead, the website is no longer operational and no one knows the reason as to why. It was one of the best online portals to download stuff which you couldn't find online elsewhere easily. And for those of you who had never experienced avax, well you missed one of the best ones.
avax sphere rocked!!!!

KNOL - Google's answer to WIKIPEDIA
Last night on the official Google blog, Udi Manber, vice president of engineering, announced that Google is testing a publishing platform called Knol.
It's being compared to Wikipedia and Mahalo. While it's a somewhat different take on knowledge collection, these comparisons are apt.
From what we know so far, Knol is a wiki-like platform. Authors can create topics, and there are tools to interlink articles and content, but as Manber says, an article, or "knol," is "just a Web page." Where it differs from a wiki is its focus on the author. All knols will highlight who wrote them.
Knol should make it easy to create nicely formatted reference pages.That small difference becomes dramatic when you put Knol alongside Wikipedia. Wikipedia is a collaborative system. There is no author listed on a wiki page because a page may have many authors (if you want to, you can divine who said what on the history pages).
Since Knol pages will be authored, users won't, presumably, be able to dive in and edit another page. They'll be able to submit edits to the author for approval, though. So much for open collaboration. But as a platform for authors who might want to make some money from their work, it's a better bet (Knol will allow authors to monetize their pages as they see fit).
Purists may think that since Google is in the business of monetizing content via advertising, it should not compete with other publishing platforms. However, this is not the first time that Google has gotten into this business.
Blogger, of course, is Google's biggest success in text-publishing platforms. But Google also experimented with its own database, Google Base, in which it not only indexes the information but also stores it. And then there's YouTube.
I would compare Knol to Blogger, and eventually, I think it will have Digg-like elements. Knol is like Blogger because it's a personal publishing platform. It's all about giving authors a platform for writing. It's just a like a blog, but much more structured. If you like a Knoller, you'll likely want to read more written by that person, or even subscribe to his work.
It could become Digg-like, in that multiple Knol pages on the same topic will compete with each other. And while the Manber's post hinted that the arbiter of Knol quality will be Google search rankings, I cannot imagine that there won't, at some point, be both a social network of Knol users and a main page that ranks the most popular Knol pages by votes, page views, discussion flow, or other group metrics.
At this point, based only on the official blog post, Knol looks like a solid end-user publishing platform. I strongly doubt that it will put much of a hurt on Wikipedia, since its author focus makes it much the antithesis of the open, community-driven wiki model. Knol looks more like a Google version of About.com, Mahalo, or Squidoo.
No word on when--or if--Knol will be released to the public.
