10 of the Best Ways to Be a Good Wife
I know, you want to be the best wife for your husband, but what does that mean? Well, eventually, it's up to you and your husband to establish the needs of your relationship and how each partner can do their part to accomplish those needs--and here are 10 advices or guiding principle to start off. However, keep in mind that a marriage is a partnership, so your husband wishes to make an effort too!
1 - Pamper Yourself
The very first thing you must do to be a good wife is to take care of yourself so that you feel good! Eat healthy, exercise regularly and maintain the way you look so that you remain the most attractive woman in his life! Irrespective of your age, if you look good, you will definitely feel better.
2 - Appreciate Him
According to a survey men like to be appreciated. So say a sweet ‘thank you’ when you see that he has made any effort, whether it is for you, your kids or for your house. Your compliments and appreciation will put a smile on his face and joy in his heart.
3 - Make your Husband a Priority
It often happens that wives are so occupied in their every day household chores and kids that they start taking their husbands for granted. Don’t do that. Instead try to spend quality time with your husband.
4 - Tell Him that He is Important
Let him know that he is important for you. Try to take interest in his hobbies and work. But make sure that you don’t overdo it. Be there for his support and not as an obstacle to his freedom.
5 - Give him Space
Every one needs some time to relax, socialise with friends or simply to be alone. To be a good wife, encourage your husband to socialise with family, friends and do the things he enjoys the most.
6 - Don’t Force Him to Change
Never force your husband to behave or act in a particular manner. Most behavioural experts suggest you cannot change others' behaviour. For instance, if you are outgoing and like to socialise and your husband is shy then you can either cut short the duration of social activity or go by yourself. But make sure to thank him when he attends a party for you. If you find something really annoying, then simply let him know or use positive reinforcement for changing that habit.
7 - Have Friends
Most women shrink their social network after marriage and become totally dependent on their husband. Don’t expect your husband to be your partner, lover and best friend. Instead make good friends and have fun. This will help you to bring new energy to your married life.
8 - Believe in your Husband
Even though most men show their brave side to world but at times, they do lack confidence and fear failure. Let him know that the love of his life believes in him even when he does not believe himself.
9 - Pay Compliments
Complimenting to your husband can actually help your relationship. Men like compliments as much as the women do. So keep complimenting!!

Marriage does not mean the end of romance. Be affectionate to your partner and let him know that you still find him interesting. You can plan a romantic date, initiate sexual foreplay or simply write a love note and see the smile on his face widening!
11-digit Mobile numbers soon in India
With the explosive growth in the mobile telephony, the government is understood to have begun the exercise to amend the numbering plan to migrate to 11-digit cellular number from the current 10-digit in order to accommodate more users.
A senior Department of Telecom (DoT) official said the proposal is there and a committee had suggested this. But he added that nothing has been finalised yet, therefore, no direction has been sent to the operators.
According to telecom regulator Trai, the wireless subscriber base increased by 16.67 million during October 2009, taking the total number of subscribers to 488 million.
According to an internal DoT note, the National Numbering Plan 2003 is to be amended for migration to 11-digit numbering plan in mobile services by prefixing digit ’9′.
Although the DoT note said operators need to make necessary arrangements for the migration from January 1, 2010, some operators said they are not ready for such an early migration.____________________________________________________________
The DoT’s technical arm, Telecom Engineering Centre (TEC), had recommended the new numbering plan.
Ironically, the present numbering plan, which was introduced in 2003, was supposed to cater to the needs of the mobile industry for the next 30 years.
Now, the 11-digit numbering plan will require most telecom companies to bring changes in their network equipment. No wonder, many telcos are crying foul. They say that instead of an 11-digit number series, the government can de-reserve the 92 series reserved for Tata Teleservices, 93 series with Reliance Communications or even the 94 series with BSNL.
Nevertheless, the government seems to be favouring the 11-digit numbering plan. Even as the telecom department has circulated an internal note identifying January 1 one as the implementation date, most officials feel that the government may choose to give most telecom operators a little more time as they will also need to start implementing number portability from January next year. What do you think about this new move?
Who to Follow on Twitter?
If you find yourself wasting spending hours on the Internet each day, for work or for fun, you’ve probably discovered your fair share of incredibly entertaining Twitter accounts. Twitter is indeed a gold mine of interesting content for smart people. Undoubtedly, Twitter is one of the largest and most popular social networking on Internet platform.
Its role is great and can’t be underestimated in human life. It helps people to find new friends worldwide and also promote their business and marketing. The main problem to think about here is to understand who to follow on Twitter, who from the vast number of users can become your followers and how they will help you to come true your aims.
The first and utmost point here is to follow people who are really interested in your profile or in the service you offer. It means followers should at least share one common thing or similarity.
Twitter profiles have a button that while pressing show you the people who have certain features similar to you and are potential candidates to become your followers. The result of such inquiry may be fully satisfactory or not.
You as a user may choose the category of your search: to get followers based on industry, age, country or any factor you choose. The possibility of such search is to get real followers who are really interested in you and your profile. If a user is keen to get more followers fast, the best version is to follow popular and famous people. Try to find the accounts that share similarities with yours.
A user may realize this having a look at an account: it can be deduced from posts, comments, topics or links posted on the profile. Account’s profile can also tell much about its user and interests. For example a serious profile or user will never create a funny and colorful background design or post such links and posts.
As a new user, you may be unsure who to follow. Twitter directories are a great resource to find users based on subject matter, location and popularity. Two of the most well-known directories are WeFollow and Twellow. You should register yourself on these directories so that others can find you too.
Thinking globally it is not so difficult to get followers having similar interests and world views. If a user is known with general technical methods of Twitter and knows a few tips, he/she can find out who follow on Twitter and how get followers fast and free.
