Came to know this just now. BwTorrents has opened its gates for new registrations. No more invitations / donations are required now. Just go and register quickly before they close down the free registrations. 
BwT is one of the premier private tracker torrent sites for downloading Indian movies, music and almost every Indian TV show you want. Not to mention the excellent quality of the releases.
Go get yourself an account quickly before you are late. And do not forget to spread the news. Let the BwT family grow.

Ever seen the strike rates of batsmen like Adam Gilchrist ? Always greater than 100%. Saw something like that in my Google Adsense account today. 
See the screenshot.
3 impressions, 4 clicks and a CTR of 133%.
Beat that CTR and of course the CPM.

Seems like bloated applications are the order of the day for Windows. And if you want to know what bloated means you just need to try Nero 7 and iTunes.
So here I present a list of lightweight, memory efficient applications for Windows XP. These applications do what they are supposed to do without eating up on your system’s resources. And there is one for almost every need. Another good news, all of these applications are free.
1. PDF Reader - Foxit PDF Reader
Still using Adobe PDF Reader to read PDF files ? Then you got to try Foxit PDF reader. This super light PDF reader launches your PDF documents in a matter of 2 seconds to the maximum.
Download Size : 1.67 MB
Memory Footprint : 8MB
Download Foxit PDF Reader
2. Audio Player - foobar2000
A must try application for users who like to have their media player designed to their needs. Do not get fooled by its lean looks. For a simple example of what you can do with foobar2000, have a look here.
Download Size : 1.60 MB
Memory Footprint : 2MB (Default install)
Download Foobar2000
3. Instant Messenger - Miranda
Why keep YIM, WLM, GTalk and many more keep running in the background when you can use just one application to connect to all these networks and even more. Use Miranda IM. As the Miranda home page says Smaller, Faster, Easier.
Download Size : 1.09 MB
Memory Footprint : 1.6 MB (Default install)
Download Miranda IM
4. BitTorrent Client - uTorrent
One of the best torrent clients available for Windows. Loaded with all features you will ever need, yet takes less than 1MB of RAM while running.
Download Size : 646 KB
Memory Footprint : < 1 MB
Download µTorrent
That’s all for now, I will keep on adding / updating this list as I find new ones. And if you want some of your apps to be on this list, do not forget to leave a comment. 
5. Video Player - VLC Media Player
Not exactly light on resources, but definitely better than the Windows Media Player bundled with Windows. VLC has a load of features and also plays almost all the video files thrown at it without the need for additional codecs to be installed.
Download Size : 9 MB
Memory Footprint : 32 MB
Download VLC Media Player

Running here and there looking for a BwTorrents account ? Well you do not need to anymore. Here is an exclusive post on my blog for requesting BwTorrents invites. A BwTorrents invite is required to open a BwTorrents account.
BwTorrents is premier torrents website for downloading all entertainment things related to India. Bollywood movies, music releases, latest soap operas and more …
You can request BwTorrents invites by leaving comments (with a valid e-mail of of course) in this post. Look at the end of this post to see how many invites are available with me at present.
You need to fulfill just one requirement : Show me proof of that you have a good ratio in any other private torrent tracker site. I need this to make sure you have a good internet connection and also seed what you have downloaded. Because if you do not upload and get banned, my account will be in trouble.
So leave comments with some proof (a screenshot of your private torrent tracker stats elsewhere would be good) of a good ratio in other private torrent trackers and get your BwTorrents invite.
P.S. - Look at the invites status before requesting. If there are 0 invites, please do not request. Keep checking back and wait till I get more invites.
Invites Status - 0 BwTorrents invites available. Comments closed till I have more invites. Keep checking till then.
