Paypal India had blocked personal payment transactions to and from Indian accounts on around 5th Feb. This caused a lot of issues especially for IT developers who used to freelance for foreign markets and charge purely via the use of Paypal. Their payments were reversed by Paypal. Paypal also halted bank withdrawals for the Indian users.

But, I received I mail today from Paypal saying that they’ll resume bank withdrawals in India soon. Here’s what the mail says:

You can also read more about the update on PayPal blog. Hope the services will be resumed soon.

The Symbian Foundation has unveiled the Symbian^3 (S^3) platform.

S^3 is the first entirely open source release following the platform’s transition to an open source license earlier this month.

S^3 is expected to be “feature complete” by the end of Q1.

Lee M. Williams, Executive Director of the Symbian Foundation, said: “S^3 is another huge milestone in the evolution of our platform. Now that it is fully open source, the door is open to individual contributors, device creators and third-party developer companies, as well as other organizations, to create more compelling products and services than ever before. We have enjoyed significant momentum since we completed S^2, with companies including Sun, Nokia, Ixonos, Comarch and Accenture, among others, contributing to S^3. We are now looking to build on this momentum and remain on course to complete S^4 later this year.”

Here’s a video from Nokia that gives you a peek at some of the more visual enhancements in Symbian^3:

Microsoft is planning to launch new mobile OS, 7 (branded as Seven) to challenge the Google’s Android and Apple’s iPhone OS.

Windows series 7 OS is to be shipped in two flavors: one for OEM and business customers, and a media-oriented version for consumers called the Media Edition. Both versions will support manufacturers overlaying their own interfaces, a la Windows Mobile 6.5. WMExperts claims that while we’ll probably see Seven at MWC, it won’t be a full product yet, since the launch is late 2010: we should just see HD video playback, a Zune-like media interface, and some of the UI, but not all.

WMExperts also has a first look at some of the hardware we should expect to run Seven: the LG apollo and HTC Obsession. According to WMExperts, these will profoundly outclass any other smartphone out there, since both have 1GHz+ Snapdragon processors, 3.7-inch AMOLED screens, and 512MB to 1GB of RAM.

But, both Android and iPhone OS will have plenty of time till then to challenge Seven.

The new update of WordPress fixes a security vulnerability that was previously reported by Thomas Mackenzie on his personal blog. The vulnerability affects all Wordpress installations with the version number 2.9.0 or later. Previous Wordpress installations are not affected by the vulnerability (but are insecure because of other reasons).

Thomas Mackenzie alerted us to a problem where logged in users can peek at trashed posts belonging to other authors. If you have untrusted users signed up on your blog and sensitive posts in the trash, you should upgrade to 2.9.2. As always, you can visit the Tools->Upgrade menu to upgrade.

-WordPress Development Blog

You can download the latest update here or upgrade directly from your wp-admin.

Happy Blogging.

Knowing when to outsource website management is just as important as knowing when to outsource any of the critical tasks in running a business. In today’s technological world, if you are ignoring your website, you are doing your business a major disservice. Therefore it is vital to be able to recognize the signs of when your website management needs to be done by a professional.

-    If your customers, friends and acquaintances comment on the poor design or the lack of updates on your website, it needs professional help.
-    If you notice that there are so many other aspects of the business that demand your time and you never seem to have time to do website management, you are probably missing out on a lot of business.
-    If you are so technologically challenged that every thing you do in terms of website management has a huge learning curve, it is time to have someone else take care of it.
-    If your list of what you would like to do with your website never actually gets done, handing it over to a professional will greatly expedite things so you can actually see your plans come to life.

By outsourcing your website management, you can free yourself to spend more time on tasks that you are truly needed for in the business. You can also put it in the hands of professionals who can make constructive suggestions of cutting edge ways to get the most out of your website. Outsourcing will help you get the most from your website in the shortest amount of time possible.
