Nikhil

Nikhil is a word in Hindi and Sanskrit that means "All", "Entire", "Complete", or "Whole" as in the Universe. Sanskrit fragmentation of the word yields: Ni (without) + Kh (sky or boundary) + L (agreed or liked) . It is also a popular male name amongst Hindus. Akhil is a similar-sounding synonym of Nikhil in Hindi and Sanskrit.

Google Beta Testing "Gmail For Your Domain"

From slashdot.org

"Google is looking for organizations to beta test its new hosted email service. From the information page: 'This special beta test lets you give Gmail, Google's webmail service, to every user at your domain. Gmail for your domain is hosted by Google, so there's no hardware or software for you to install or maintain.' The beta test is limited, but Google is accepting open applications."

https://www.google.com/hosted/Home

Currently San José City College testing this beta

http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/02/big-mail-on-campus.html

Have applied for hosting the email service for my domain. Just keeping my fingers crossed. ;-)
