Text links have a lot of value for optimal spidering, and site map has importance to help search engine robots reach website’s deeper pages.

Search engine robots cannot click a button, submit a form, pull down a menu, or perform any other type of online ‘user interaction’ that might be used by a human visitor. They are able to index the text on a page and click through hypertext links. A navigational text link is added to web pages (often located at the bottom of the page) to enable the search engine robots with another means to click through the links of web pages when it cannot access these other types of navigation.

Rediff.com India Limited, one of the leading worldwide online providers of news, information, communication, entertainment and shopping services. Rediff announced today that it has acquired a minority stake in Tachyon Technologies, a Bangalore based software company Tachyon, for an undisclosed sum. Today's announcement is a part of Rediff's efforts to boost its competitiveness by investing in start-up companies with innovative technologies that allow Rediff to provide better services for its customers.

Ajit Balakrishnan, Chief Executive Officer and founder of Rediff.com, said we aspire to encourage promising start-ups to develop innovative world class products that support our business. As a part of such efforts, we are delighted to have an opportunity to invest in a promising start-up company, such as Tachyon Technologies.

Venki Nishtala, Chief Technology Officer of Rediff.com, added as a leading Internet portal of the country, we believe enhanced Indian language use capability through Tachyon's innovative software can help fuel product innovation and is consistent with our strategy of promoting growth by introducing innovative technologies. The predictive text input technology developed by Tachyon is based on sophisticated machine learning techniques and is an improvement on simple phonetic maps and specialized language keyboards, thus enabling millions of Indians to benefit from the Internet.

Tachyon Technologies has built a world class product named 'Quillpad', which enables users to type in English alphabets to input words in other languages (in the respective scripts) with ease on the basis of phonetics, allowing them to communicate in their language of choice. Rediff.com has adopted this technology in its "Rediffmail" email and "Rediff Bol" messenger service.

Commenting on the Rediff's investment in Tachyon, Ram Prakash H, CEO of Tachyon Technologies said Rediff.com's investment in Tachyon Technologies should provide us with the capital we need to enhance our development infrastructure. Hopefully, this will help us to realize our ultimate goal of developing great products.

K S Sreeram, co-founder of Tachyon Technologies added, Tachyon, as one of the technologically innovative companies in India, welcomes this opportunity to be associated with Rediff.com. We know from our experience that people at Rediff.com understand the importance of product innovation and development to succeed in this competitive environment.

Every one of us is bound by inertia. We do things, get active, run, talk, bark, get elated, fell sorrow and depressed and experience many stages of extreme and alternativly mild surges of emotions. Why? Why do we need to work? Why do we create? Creat wealth?What happiness does a car, house, a chick party, a beautiful companion, sex, deciet, malice, violence, self abuse, alchol abuse, drugs and all sorts of material, give us? Where does this happiness emerge? Do things give happiness? If so, Why would any one who creats it, sell it? Why doesn't toyota keep all the car for itself? Why don't constructors keep all the houses for themselves? Why not every producer retain whatever he produces? Why sell oneself? If ever hapiness could be bought, we would never be sad and distraught? There is hapiness locked somewhere in us.

Intrigued by the relentless campaign of RediffMail v/s Hoohah
commercials on various TV channels last month, I decided to take some time out and
give Rediffmail a try and experience the promised lightning mail.

I wasn't disappointed as upon login, it straight away jumps into an Outlook style three pane view
of folders, Messages and Preview, and on clicking on the message instantly shows the preview , the clever use of Ajax is impressive, and gives a first good quick impression.
