 regular post to the list!!!


/!\ ALERT!  Shelfari.com, a site that professes to unite book lovers, asks
for your (gmail) account password so it can tell you if any of your

trick.  Oh, and there is the standard footnote that tells you they won't

Small sacrifice for getting access to your address book!  Probably that was
how I got the invitation mail in the first place.

Is there any merit in the idea of setting up a public notification service
on the PLUG website informing PLUG-gies and others of such potential privacy
violations?

Is there a web service that does this already?

[PLUG] [OT] Open-source web-based phonebook

2007-10-18 Thread Yogesh Hasabnis
Hi All,

I am looking for an opensource easy-to-use web-based phonebook tool. The tool 
currently used is a custom phonebook script by Sergy Stouk downloaded from 
http://www.scriptsearch.com. That script needs to be replaced because it has 
some issues. I have already searched quite a lot on sourceforge.net and 
freshmeat.net but haven't found any suitable tool. Would be great if I get some 
suggestions from here.

Thanks in advance

Yogesh

That's the case for Fedora atleast three releases now. All Indian

releases.

 So we are free in India .

You are free in any part of the world till caught illegally doing
legal things or legally doing illegal things (think of it seriously
and you may find some truth in this..).

e.g.  for thousands of people detained illegally without trial, only
freedom is Death perhaps as the time passes?  Or think of Guantanamo
bay prisoners..

Anyway, without dwelling much into this Off-Topic, only remark I would
like to say is **you are free untill caught (and guilty untill you can
successfully defend yourself without any outside meaning external help
:-).  **
