Avoid all cars and SUV from the General Motors, the Ford and the ChryslerDo you remember those old days when Daewoo was aggressive all over the Car world market with their Cars like Matiz. Suddenly Daewoo went bankrupt last decade and there were no owner for quiet some time. Because of this development, all dealers of Daewoo in India closed their shop as well as their service centers. This leads to Chaos among Matiz owners when they could not get their car serviced. Btw, General motors is the owner of Daewoo now.

It seems that Adsense and Websense are not making sense to each other. It websenselogohas been observed by me and many of my friends working in different companies that Websense Web Filter deployed in my and their companies is not allowing few Google URLs to pass through the proxy. One of the most important URLs, which are being blocked, is of Google Adsense. While loading any site, this URL goes to Google to get relevant Ads based on content and keywords on that page.

Get more details on this observation at this link. Please share your observation and opinions if you are also facing similar issue. Thanks.

Tata has given the chance exclusive to ‘AutomoblieMag’ of sneak peak the Tata Nano and feel the drive. ‘AutomoblieMag’ haven’t driven it, but they’ve been to Tata’s test track in Pune, India, and scored a ride in the Nano with Tata’s engineers on the driver seat. Nobody else outside Tata has experienced it “in action. tata_nano_front_view

So a low price alone won’t be enough; the Nano will have to perform at least a little bit like a “proper” car. And it does. tata_nanorear_three_quarter_viewYou open one of four very light, flimsy-feeling doors and enter a remarkably airy cabin. The whole car is only 122 inches long (sixteen inches longer than a Smart ForTwo), but with the engine under the rear seats and virtually no nose, almost all of that is usable cabin space, with one six-footer able to sit comfortably behind another. The seats are firm, the cloth in which they’re trimmed feels of decent quality (base models get vinyl upholstery), and the big one-piece dash molding with its central speedometer is made of a surprisingly good-looking plastic.
