A Movie on Microsoft, Ctrl+Alt+Compete

Ctrl+Alt+Compete is a documentary that “takes a revealing look at the startup and emerging business scene through the eyes of 5 founders and their teams and tells a story of the passion, fortitude and insanity that is bringing a startup to life”. 


Daryll McDade explains more in a guest blog on the Bizspark site and names the 5 startups under the spotlight as Aboutone.com, LiquidSpace, POPVOX, Guardly, Supergiant Games. The movie gets its first airing at the inaugural Napa Valley Film Festival this November and will become more broadly available in the months after.

Checkout the Interviews of Movie Folks 

Right about now I’m imagining that you’re thinking to yourself, “Microsoft made a movie? Really??  What the…?!” Yup—we did and here’s why…

We believe developers are fundamentally changing the world.  The things that developers create, the ideas that they’re able to make reality, the tangible value they deliver is reshaping the way people live their lives every day.  There are lots of tech startups out there taking their shot at changing the world.  There’s no shortage of ideas…the infrastructure to build quickly is cheaper and more accessible than it’s ever been…there’s lots of capital floating around for the right idea.  If only it were that simple!  Building a startup from nothing to something is hard—REALLY hard.  There is a “story behind the story” of just how hard it is for these ideas to go from inception to reality and become the products and services that we use every day.  It’s a story of the power of people pouring their passion, drive and dedication into building something that changes the world—no matter how hard.  We believe that is a story worth telling and sharing.

 In the blog post, Daryll mentions that in addition to more than 100 hours of footage the team captured more than 70 interviews to get the perspective of several seasoned entrepreneurs, investors, industry watchers and tastemakers. Not all of that made it in to the movie so they plane to share it on the Facebook page and YouTube channel. If you’ve been following along with Ctrl+Alt+Compete you’ll know there are already some interview segments with folks like Tim O’Reilly on Channel 9.

Happy Birthday GandhiJi with Gandhiji Font


Today is 2 Oct, so we have some reason to celebrate it is Gandhi Jayanti Today.........Happy Birthday To Mohandas Karam Chand Gandhi.

In hatred he saw love. In fear, courage. In weakness he saw strength. And in violence, truth. In cruelty he saw kindness. In anger he saw humanity. And in struggle, he saw peace. He saw things through his soul that are invisible to the eye. Yet through his eyes, we can still see the shining light of humanity. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. A different type. 

Original Gandhiji Glass,fonts inspired from
The Gandhiji Font is an impressive typeface the design of which is completely inspired by Mahatma Gandhi’s trademark round glasses.

The font is available in English, Hindi, Urdu and other major Indian languages. Head over to gandhijifont.com to download your free copy.

The font, which was recently converted into a hardcover book, was also an entry at this year’s Cannes Lions Festival. KV Sridhar, Payal Juthani, Nadine Pereira and Zainab Karachiwala form the core team that conceptualized and designed the Gandhi font.

Watch the following video to know how glasses inspired the design of the font alphabets.



” There is no god higher than truth.” is what he said and is what got imprinted in my mind  ever since I was a little boy, my grand parents always told me stories of Gandhi at bedtime, I am still a vegetarian thanks to the impression he made on me. I am just a spec in billions who follow him. Once he said “Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.”

India is the 4th Country to use Social Network the Most

Brazil use Social Networks the Most,while India is in the 4th Position with 14% of Internet Users and also in a survey an Indian User spent more than 20 minute in Facebook as an average.

Experian Hitwise has released some new numbers about social network use around the world. It found that Brazil and Singapore are the top two countries for overall social networking use. But Facebook is not the network on which Brazilians are spending their time. 

The study also measured the length of the average user's Facebook session and found that Brazilians spent comparatively little time on Facebook. While Singapore users spend nearly nearly 39 minutes per Facebook session on average, Brazilian users spend less than half that, just over 18 minutes.

Where are the Brazilians if not on Facebook? They're using Orkut, owned by Google. Orkut owns 43% of the social networking market in Brazil, but it's losing ground to Facebook. Orkut fell by 18% since last year, while Facebook gained by 16%. Still, for the country that uses social networks the most in the world, it uses Facebook less than half as long as Singapore, on average, and only 2/3 as long as the U.S.


The Hitwise study measured market share of social networking sites versus total Internet usage as its metric of overall social Web use:


Market share for social networks and forums:

  1. Brazil -- 18.9%
  2. Singapore -- 16.4%
  3. U.S. -- 15.4%
  4. India -- 14.0%
  5. New Zealand -- 13.9%
  6. France -- 15.1%
  7. Australia -- 13.1%
  8. U.K. -- 12.2%

Hitwise also measured the length of the average user's Facebook session around the world. ReadWriteWeb's loyal Kiwi supporters will be proud to know that New Zealand wins the silver medal, at 30 minutes and 31 seconds:


Average time spent on Facebook in August 2011 per session:

  1. Singapore -- 38 mins 46 sec
  2. New Zealand -- 30 mins 31 sec
  3. Australia -- 26 mins 27 sec
  4. U.K. -- 25 mins 33 sec
  5. U.S. -- 20 mins 46 sec
  6. France -- 21 mins 53 sec
  7. India -- 20 mins 21 sec
  8. Brazil -- 18 mins 19 sec

Other interesting takeaways:

  • India had the fastest growth in Facebook use since last year, increasing in market share by 88%.
  • Facebook gained in market share by 5% in the U.S. since last year.
  • 18% of Singaporeans jump directly from one social network to another during their browsing sessions.

A Website for Developers & Programmers

If you are a programmer or a web developer who often needs to shuffle between writing code in multiple languages, check out searchco.de – this is an instant search engine for all programming related documentation and nothing else.


You type a function name and searchco.de will pull a list of all languages where that function is available along with the syntax and description. Alternately, you may prefix the function name with the language name – like jquery slide - to limit your search results to a particular language.

In addition to regular programming languages, searchco.de also indexes documentation for Windows and Linux commands.


However, if you are looking to search for code snippets or to debug problems in your existing code, Google’s Code Search is still your best friend. You can even find code using regular expressions, a feature that is not available inside Google's web search.

Google Code Search is part of Google Labs so am not too sure if it will survive once Google retires the Labs section altogether.

How To Make Pendrive Bootable

When You Have to Install Windows(Xp,Vista,7) and you don't have CD to install.then you think could i install my window with Pendrive.
The answer is Yes! but again new question arises How?if You don't Know the answer then it is By making your Pendrive Bootable.Questions again arises like..


1. How To Boot From A USB Flash Drive?
2.How to Install Windows 7 From a USB Flash Drive or USB Hard Drive?
3.How To Create Bootable Windows 7, Vista, or XP USB Flash/Pen Drive Quickly? etc. etc.

So the Solution is Below..
Method 1.
Requirements to create bootable Windows USB:

# Windows 7 or Vista ISO

# Pen drive with 4GB+ (2 GB is sufficient for XP)

# 15 Minutes of free time


Procedure:

1. Insert your USB flash/pen drive to your system and backup all the data from the USB as your USB drive will be formatted during the process.

2. Now download WinToFlash tool (free) from here.




3. Run the tool, and browse to your Windows 7, Vista, or XP DVD files (make sure that your USB drive letter is correct).

"WinToFlash starts a wizard that will help pull over the contents of a windows installation CD or DVD and prep the USB drive to become a bootable replacement for the optical drive. It can also do this with your LiveCD.


You don't have to worry about scratches on the disc or misplacing your original media discs once you transfer their contents to the flash drive. The optical drive is quickly becoming a thing of the past, especially in office environments, as media is shifted to the cloud."





4. Click Create button to begin the bootable USB process. Wait for few minutes to see the bootable USB.

5. That’s all!
Help Video



Method 2: Manually
Create Your Pendrive Bootable
bootable USB guide, here we assume that you are using either Vista or Windows 7 to create a bootable USB.
1. Insert your USB (4GB+ preferable) stick to the system and backup all the data from the USB as we are going to format the USB to make it as bootable. 

2. Open elevated Command Prompt. To do this, type in CMD in Start menu search field and hit Ctrl + Shift + Enter. Alternatively, navigate to Start > All programs >Accessories > right click on Command Prompt and select run as administrator. 

3. When the Command Prompt opens, enter the following command:
DISKPART and hit enter.
LIST DISK and hit enter. 

Once you enter the LIST DISK command, it will show the disk number of your USB drive. In the below image my USB drive disk no is Disk 1. 

4. In this step you need to enter all the below commands one by one and hit enter. As these commands are self explanatory, you can easily guess what these commands do. 

SELECT DISK 1 (Replace DISK 1 with your disk number)
CLEAN
CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY
SELECT PARTITION 1
ACTIVE
FORMAT FS=NTFS
(Format process may take few seconds)
ASSIGN

EXIT 

Don’t close the command prompt as we need to execute one more command at the next step. Just minimize it. 

5. Insert your Windows DVD in the optical drive and note down the drive letter of the optical drive and USB media. Here I use “D” as my optical (DVD) drive letter and “G” as my USB drive letter. 

6. Go back to command prompt and execute the following commands:
6.1. Change directory to the DVD’s boot directory where bootsect lives:
d:
cd d:\boot


6.2. Use bootsect to set the USB as a bootable NTFS drive prepared for a Vista/7 image. I’m assuming that your USB flash drive has been labeled disk G:\ by the computer:
bootsect /nt60 g: 


(Where “G” is your USB drive letter) 

7. Copy Windows DVD contents to USB. 

You are done with your bootable USB. You can now use this bootable USB as bootable DVD on any computer that comes with USB boot feature (most of the current motherboards support this feature).

What is the “findability” of your photos?

          photolibraries_lg


Another nice find from @thatrobguy1000memories.com does a great job of estimating how many photos have ever been taken, both analog and digital. Their analog estimation is astonishing with 85 billion photos being taken in the year 2000. As we shift in to the digital age, the initial uptake was slow but it’s not estimated that 2.5 billion people in the world today have a digital camera and assuming every person snaps 150 photos per year that equates to 375 billion photos per year. Put another way, every 2 minutes today we snap as many photos as the whole of humanity took in the 1800s. Mind boggling.


The post continues by exploring where these photos get stored, with an estimated 70 billion heading towards Facebook this year – adding to the current 140 billion photos they have. It’s going to make Facebook’s recently introduced timeline feature all the more visually compelling.


As the 1000memories post mentions, the potential for all of these photos, when brought together, is amazing. Technology like Photosynth can create some remarkable moments that would have been almost impossible with analog photography - “The Moment stands as a great example.


The post finishes by imploring us to cherish the “lost photos” in shoe boxes and there is something quite magical about finding a creased, old, black and white photograph and enjoying that sensory experience.



Despite all of these advances in photography, there is another reason that digital photos languish in much the same way analog photos do – I’ll call it findability. Most of my digital photos are seen once or twice at best as the lack of meta data makes them too hard to find. I want to just speak to my computer (or TV, or room) and say “show me all the photos of me and the family in the last 18 months”. That’s a relatively obvious query but it shows how far we have to go as today, that would involve lots of sorting and searching in my folders. Facial recognition and batch tagging of the kind found in Windows Live Photo Gallery, Picasa and recently Facebook, will certainly help but it’s just one part of the puzzle to solve that relatively simple sounding query.


As you may have heard me say before on this blog, we’re really just scratching the surface with technology at the moment – there is so much more to come.

Celebrating the Google's Birthday

Google's 13th Birthday on Floor ,so me & Tech Impulsion team celebrating the birthday with the whole world.


Imagine the internet and web without Google...You can't handle??  thats why Google is God for Technical Person as well as for Normal.....one Day without Google's some stuffs about Google


One day without Google
Have you ever spent a single day online without
our friend, Google?


Google owns our Internet

Whether we like it or not, “Google” is almost synonymous with “Internet”. Year after year, Google has developed enough online applications for us to be able to do anything you need to, by only using Google
Google is almost synonymous with Internet
Now we have a search engine, an online email service, an IM service, a blogging platform, photo and video sharing applications, a feed reader, an online word processor, an encyclopedia, a web site creator, an online directory and even an Internet browser!
Not to mention His PPC advertising system, its main source of revenue.
Now look at the list above. It´s pretty long, isn´t it? Well you know what? It´s only 10% of the programs, applications, widgets or services Google provides today.

Internet without Google?

Now the question is: would it be the Internet possible without Google?
Well, the natural response is yes, it would. But it would be an Internet without its best search engine,
What a mess!It seems almost impossible 2 work without Google!
without Gmail, YouTube, Google Video, Google Reader, Picassa, Blogger, Orkut, Google Maps, Google Docs, Google Analytics, Google AdSense, Google Chrome, Google Analytics, Google News, Google, Google, Google!
What a mess! It seems almost impossible to work without Google!
But it isn´t. That´s because - fortunately - for almost every service Google provides, there is an alternate service waiting to be discovered. So basically it all depends on your will to make a change. Are we ready to give up all these services and start One day without Google?

History
On September 4, 1998, Larry Page and Sergey Brin filed for incorporation as Google Inc. — they had received a $100,000 check from an investor made out to Google, Inc., and needed to incorporate that name so they could legally deposit the check.
Prior to the launch, Page and Brin met at Stanford in 1995, and soon decided to launch a search service called BackRub in January 1996. They soon reevaluated the name (and the creepy logo) in favor of Google, a play on the mathematical figure, “googol,” which represents the number 1 followed by 100 zeroes. The name embodied their mission to create an infinite amount of web resources. And that they did.
Since then, Google has become a household name to billions of people worldwide. You’ll overhear senior citizens command their grandchildren to “google” the price of foot cream. You’ll witness toddlers punching the screen of the latest Android phone. And chances are, you’ve navigated the circles of Google+ (if not, let’s get you an invite already).
About Google
Google Inc. is an American multinational public corporation invested in Internet search, cloud computing, and advertising technologies. Google hosts and develops a number of Internet-based services and products, and generates profit primarily from advertising through its AdWords program The company was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, often dubbed the "Google Guys",while the two were attending Stanford University as PhD candidates. It was first incorporated as a privately held company on September 4, 1998, and itsinitial public offering followed on August 19, 2004. At that time Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Eric Schmidt agreed to work together at Google for twenty years, until the year 2024. The company's mission statement from the outset was "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful", and the company's unofficial slogan – coined by Google engineer Amit Patel and supported by Paul Buchheit – is "Don't be evil". In 2006, the company moved to its current headquarters in Mountain View, California.
