khalsa jee

you can improve your experience with firefox and google to make your web surfing on the internet for sikhi topics more useful.

if you visit http://www.google.ca/ig?hl=en and make it your homepage, you can customize it in many ways.

there is an "Add Content" button that allows you to customize the homepage. If you have Google Gmail Notifier, it can keep you logged into your Google account while you surf the net.

Then, whenever you press the hompage, you can view - all on one page - your new e-mails, new posts on Sikh blogs, news about Sikhs, and new posts on forums.

you can take the URL of any RSS feed from any forum or any website that publishes an RSS, and show the latest posts.

for example you can display DiscoverSikhi's latest forum posts by adding the following link : http://forums.waheguroo.com/rss.php

I don't think SikhSangat has an RSS feed but they should - it would be very good for this purpose ! Admins you can add an RSS feed in the Admin CPanel.

You can also use the following link to show any new posts from any blog index by blogger.com (it will also show MSN and Wordpress blogs) that are written by an author with the word Singh, Kaur or Khalsa in their name:

http://search.blogger.com/blogsearch_feeds...=100&output=rss

You can also use Feedster, Google News, and many other services.

This way, right when you open your Firefox, you can view your gmail, new posts on blogs, news about Sikhi, new posts on forums, and all of your favourite links - all on your homepage. and it will update every time you refresh, so you can always see the newest content.

It makes things much easier, and you get information much faster. :nihungsmile:

If you need any help please PM me. all the best :wub:

please forgive me for any mistakes

Just to add to the previous post,

the blogger Singh|Kaur|Khalsa search might not be the best one

You can improve it to remove posts by people with Singh who are not Sikhs if you are looking for specifically Sikhi-oriented posts

for example you can try -binit -nalini -varun inpostauthor:singh|kaur|khalsa

the link for that search's RSS feed is: http://search.blogger.com/blogsearch_feeds...=100&output=rss

please let me know if you used this and how it's going - if you have any tips / tricks to improve it, thanks :wub:

RSS means Really Simple Syndication

It allows people to summarize the information published on their website in a file that has various categories, and that file can be published on anybody else's website to show that website's content.

For example if you have a news website, and it has an RSS feed, I could use the RSS file to show the news from your website on my website.

It allows websites to share information easily and efficiently.

If you are showing those on your Google homepage, I think the only way you can really customize it is to increase the number of entries that show from 1 to 9 but otherwise there is not much you can do

You can move them to different locations on the screen that is for sure

Otherwise what you can do is also try other services like MyYahoo and other RSS-based services to show feeds in a nice easy reading format.

      Islam has become Redpilled in the West...Everyone is converting to Islam

      By BhForce · Posted

      So, are you saying Guru ji isn't God? Or are you saying the British encouraged this belief?

      Amritsar and Punjab: left out of the New Silk road

      By BhForce · Posted

      Part of the problem is the hostilities between India and Pakistan. If the border were open, Amritsar would easily become a huge trading city. Secondly, the National Highways Authority of India is constructing a new 6-lane expressway from Kashmir, through Amritsar/Jalandhar/Ludhiana to Dehli which will be part of the Ludhiana-Delhi-Kolkatta Industrial Corridor.  Maps of the New Silk Road show Kolkata as a key part of the "road". The Punjab to Kolkata expressway and rail connections will fulfill the ability to hook up to the New Silk Road.  In addition, while crossing to Pakistan via AH1 (Asian Highway 1) is difficult, India does connect to AH1 on the other side, towards the East. Finally, Punjab can trade with the world via Mundra port in Gujurat. Rail to Mundra, then sea onwards. Dubai is very close with a free port. If you send products to Iran, there are ground links onward to Europe.

      Child marriage questions

      By BhForce · Posted

      Yeah, that's one possibility. Another I initially thought is that it's a Muslim trying to gather info. But then, you might ask, how does he know about Sikh textual sources. Well, you'd be surprised at their resourcefulness. A final possibility is he's a weak Sikh who was asked a question by a non-Sikh and now he's suddenly feverishly wondering where it's "written" that you can't marry a young child. To the latter, I would say, you're looking in the wrong spot. Gurbani isn't a 1428 page rulebook, like Leviticus or the Vedas: ਸਿਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਪੁੰਨ ਪਾਪ ਬੀਚਾਰਦੇ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਬਾਝਹੁ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ The Simritis and Shastras discriminate between charity and sin, but know not the essence of the Real Thing. Without the Guru, they know not the essence of the Reality, know not the essence of the Reality. Anand Sahib.

      Starched Turbans - Topi Or Not Topi

      By BhForce · Posted

      You're confusing two different things: One is merely adding starch to a turban to get a certain feel to the fabric. The other is tying your turban once and taking it off like a hat. It is this that people have a problem with. What's wrong with it is that Rehit says to tie your turban afresh every time. If you ask, "Where is that written?", it's written in Bhai Nand Lal ji's Rehitnama. @ipledgeblue didn't just make it up. Umm, no, bro. We're not evangelical Christians like President George W Bush of the US claiming to "talk to God" who told him to invade Iraq. "Speaking to him directly" basically ends up being doing whatever you feel like with the excuse that Guru ji told you to do it. If you still want to take your turban off like a hat, feel free to do so, but don't claim that it's Rehit.

      Starched Turbans - Topi Or Not Topi

      By BhForce · Posted

      You don't need to wear either a pag or dumalla in the gym. You can simply wear a meter or 1.5m small turban (gol pagg or round turban). It doesn't come off.
