Try, FreeCharge which provides discount coupons of more (or atleast equal) the recharge amount. YES, I have tried it and it really is good. Plus, it saves from queue at the shops.
It supports all networks except Airtel and Idea currently. Also, I wish if they provided options for Tariff Recharge too (like RechargeItNow does).

My favorite lyrics
With new talent replacing the old everywhere, it is refreshingly new to hear new songs, with new lyrics. They are no longer concentrated around “phulon ki khushboon” or “chand aur taare”. Here are my some lines which are very un-orthodox, embedded into wonderful tunes.

modernnerd:
“One thing I’ve noticed over the years is that if you drive into London at 6am, half of the cars on the roads are Porsches and Astons. Whereas if you go in at ten to nine, they’re all Renaults. Simple solution, then. You want a nice car? Get up earlier and do more work.”

Using Pomodoro Technique to get things done
I recently read about the Pomodoro Technique at Lifehacker. Simply put, it is to:
Choose a task to be accomplished.
Set the Pomodoro to 25 minutes (the Pomodoro is the timer).
Work on the task until the Pomodoro rings.
Thus it is to do “distraction free working in dashes”. 5 to 6 Pomodoros a day can help you achieve many goals/targets. Try it!!!
