Double driver backs up all your Windows drivers
Anyone who has been using any Windows OS for some time now knows that you have to reinstall the OS at least once every year. Whether its a deadly virus, hard disk crash or just that Windows has eaten up your partition and is now crawling like a snail, you will always find some or the other reason to reinstall Windows.
If you have a branded desktop which came with drivers disk or a restore disk, you can easily install all the drivers once you are done with the reinstall. However, if you are from the majority herd who have assembled their desktops from the grey market, chances are that you will start hunting for device drivers immediately after you re-install Windows.

Indian Railways planning to launch its own ticket booking site
Apparently, all is not well between the Indian Railways and the Indian Railways Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC). After terminating the catering contract in Rajdhani, Duronto, Shatabdi & other mail and express trains, Indian Railways is allegedly planning to launch its own online ticketing site.
With a profit of approx. INR 1.22 billion, IRCTC is the largest ecommerce site in India, responsible for 30% of all rail booking in India. However, Indian Railways feel that IRCTC lacks in terms of infrastructure and customer support, and is therefore planning to take the task in its own hands.
