Yahoo removes Yahoo groups' contents tonight!

I received an email from Yahoo that, it is going to convert all the Yahoo Groups into Restricted Groups and remove all the groups' contents by midnight today, 14th December 2019, at 11.59 p.m. PST. To avoid this removal of Yahoo group's contents, Yahoo group users are advised by it to send to it a download request before 11.59 p.m. tonight.



After receiving the download request, Yahoo shall send the contents through the group user's email when the downloading is complete.

Ants - the Computer raiders!


The other day, I ignored a line of ants going into the crevices of my Laptop. The ants carried their whitish baby larvae with them. I expected them to evacuate the inside premises of the laptop within a day, when the summer heat lessens.


But later on, I found that I could not enter into the websites, when I signed in them with password. Though I entered the password correcly, the web page inquired me, "Forgot Password?" ! Repeatedly, I tried to sign in, failed, alarmed, and got tired of it. Suddenly, I was alerted by the still moving in and out of the ant line inside the laptop! Ho! I found out the cause of my inability to enter into web pages. The ants have disturbed the functioning of the keypad!


I turned the laptop upside down and slapped it on its back to drive out the ants.With the ants some white powdery dust came out of the edges of the keys and fell on the screen! I had to repeat this many times until I got no such powder-shower down. Feeling now satisfied that all the obstructing powders are removed and the ants are driven out, I tried to sign in the websites. But the same problem persisted; I could not enter into the websites. The technician examined the laptop, found the whole keypad gnawed down. I had to pay for the replacement of the damaged keypad.

If I had stored the laptop safely in a remote place on that day, I could have spared my hardship and the money spent. So, don't ignore a line of ants near your laptop/ desktop computer. Safeguard them from ants too.

Linked URLs returning 404 errors!


I received an e-mail in my inbox from Google Search Console Team informing that 404 errors are in the increase for my other blog. Natural Scientific and Medical Wonders. I checked my blog posts that had been linked with URLs of external websites, and found that the information received is correct. 



As I reviewed more and more posts of the blog, I found that the URLs linked in the older posts were only returned wih 404 errors (not found errors). I am reviewing and correcting each post of the blog.
So, I advise Bloggers to link their posts with URLs of permanent and standard websites only to avoid such shortliving-URLs spoiling the uniqueness of the posts.
