How to meet Interesting People

Why is it that you come across most people who don't match your wavelength?
The Theory of Insulators made up as me and my brother took long walks in our colony, has some answers.

Note : Here by Interesting I mean how much of a match exists between you and the other person.

Imagine a cart-wheel with spokes connecting you the center of the wheel with the rim of the wheel. These are the not-so-alike people on the wheel rim.

Each one of these people in turn form the center of their own wheel. It's a good chance that they know someone who matches your tastes more.

Short Answer make friends with people who're unlike you (maybe even not too interesting or downright boring/irritating!!).

They'll have friends whom you're dying to meet.

Insulators :
They are people who're not quite like you but who know people directly or indirectly whom you'd like to meet i.e whose wavelength matches yours.
The more unlike you the insulator is the more likely he knows someone you really would be interested in.

There is another Theory about People called 'Six Degrees of Separation' (there's even a movie with Will Smith in it.)
It says that between you and ANY other person in this world there are only (max) SIX people forming a chain of acquaintance/friendship.
-------
The website called Orkut.com (and Gmails invitation system)
exploits this Network Theory to build communities of interest and friends. If you search for any person who's a member Orkut will show you his profile and the path/links of common friends you share with that person.

Using Strong Passwords

This is a good article I found somewhere

>>>>
Some tips on selecting a password :

A strong password is a password that is difficult for others to determine by guessing or by using automated programs.

To create a strong password that is easy for you to remember but hard for someone else to determine, try one of these techniques:

Merge two or more words, and combine the words with numbers and symbols. For example: Walk[My]Dog, Po#34tato, Champions=1995.

Abbreviate a phrase you'll remember. It could include numbers and symbols, or words that you can substitute with numbers or symbols. For

example: I ride my bike 5 miles each Saturday could become the password

Irmb5meS.

Use punctuation and numbers to combine the initials of people or objects from a familiar group, such as your favorite athletes, friends,

movies, books, or historical figures. For example: Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, and Joan of Arc could become the password 1G,2AL,JA.

Drop all vowels from a favorite saying, and then add numbers or symbols. For example: Walk three dogs could become the password Wlk3Dgs.

To be strong, a password must:

Contain at least seven, but no more than 16, characters.

Combine three of the four different types of characters:

Uppercase letters (for example: A, B, C).

Lowercase letters (for example: a, b, c).

Numerals (for example: 1, 2, 3).

Symbols (` ~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + - = { } | [ ] \ : " ; ' < >

? , . /).

Not be a common word or name, or a close variation.

Some service providers require that a strong password also:

Not be the same as any of your four previous passwords.

Not be a minor variation of your old password. For example, if your

old password was Champions=1995, a new password of Champions=1996 would

not be acceptable.

Important

Don't use one of the above examples as your password!!!!

Don't write down your password.

Never give out your password in an instant message conversation or

share it with anyone else.

If you have more than one e-mail account, for instance, one for work

and one for personal use, you should use a different password for each

account.

So...just go to Hotmail and check out how strong your password is!!! jus njoy with gr8 paswords.........use atleast one special symbol in ur password.........
