Android’s Must have Top FIVE Buisness applications

The android market boasts of over 100000 apps and more then billion downloads,but not all of them are related to your buisness and so that much helpful so their is my League of top 5 business Android Apps

1.Documents to go: Dataviz used to originally provide Office documents supports for olg age handhelds and PalmOS.it sure was a long time ago and is available on almost all mobile platforms.Documents To Go brings a highly desired enterprise capability to the Android platform and the obstacles to adopting Android as a viable business device are starting to fall.

Outstanding features: I’ll walk through the Word and Excel functionality of the software below, but first I wanted to list some of the absolutely amazing features of the client (some of which I have NEVER seen before on a mobile device). With Documents To Go for the Google Android platform you get support for Word and Excel 2007 (XML formatted) documents, support for receiving and sending attachments through Gmail and other applications (including the free RoadSync) Exchange beta client, open password protected files, and view Word documents with track changes so you can see what others have done to your document.

When you first launch Documents To Go you will see a simple “home” screen with Word To Go and Sheet To Go buttons up top and About Documents To Go, Check for Updates, and Give Us Feedback buttons below the halfway point. Tapping on Word To Go or Sheet To Go takes you into each specific module and from here you can choose to Open a File or Create a New Document. If you have used the application before then you will also see a list of most recently used files, including those stored on external storage cards.

Unlike many other Android applications, pressing the Menu button on the “home” screen or Word/Sheet To Go launch screens will not bring up any other menu options. Everything you need to start using the application is presented in large button format on your display.

2.PDANET:PdaNet enables your phone to tether to your computer via the USB data port or even create a DUN over Bluetooth. I had been looking at tethering since I got my Nexus One and although I was able to find a lot of options only two did not require me to root my phone. PdaNet and Easy Tether. I went with PdaNet simply because I download it first it work and I saw no reason to try the other one. Basically what I am saying is Easy Tether may be as good as PdaNet, But I never saw a reason to try it out.

Setup was easy I download the app from the market place and followed the instruction to get the software on my computer. What is great about PdaNet is they understand the chances are you are not going to download the app until you have a need to tether which means your computer does not have a network connection. They solve this issue by giving you the option to download the PC install file to you SD card and give you instruction on how to run it off the card to install it on your computer.

PdaNet claims that they have perfected the process so much that when using the device for USB tether you do not have any lag from the software, my unscientific test seem to support this. I used Speedtest.net on the computer as well as the Speedtest.net Android App running a number of test back and forth between the two and found that the connected of course varied a little, but that the computer was not always slower then the phone. Again this does not prove PdaNet’s claim but it doesn’t hurt it either.

3.GIST:Gist provides the only full view of the contacts in your professional network by creating rich business profiles that include the most news, status updates and work details.Presented in context, Gist puts the most important information about important contacts at your fingertips.it probably looks like Linkedin with Android application but this works way better on the social networking aspect and also manages your contacts well.Best thing about this application is that its absolutely free and works on all versions of android.

4.LAYAR:It is a augmented reality browser that uses a combination of the phones camera ,comapss and GPS data to identify the user’s location and feild of view ,retrieve data based on those geographical coordinates and overlay that data over camera view.The layay reality browser shows what is around you by displaying real time digital information on top of the real world as seen through the camera of your phone.

Reality Browser also interacts with other elements of the internet, such as Twitter. If a Twitter user has specified their location whilst posting a Tweet, it will be logged and they will appear in Reality Browser as a nearby contact. This aspect of the program is as impressive as it is unnerving; one can only imagine what ramifications might follow if someone Tweets something offensive about a nearby user, or if they admit on Twitter that they left the front door of their house unlocked before leaving for work.

5.TECHTALK SYSTEM MONITOR:it’s a great application for finding out system components and their status, so for example if you have SNMP service running on your laptop, point Techtalk to your public IP address, and click discover! You’ll see in few seconds the complete status of your laptop – what connections you have and which of them is active, what is the status if your disk and memory, what other equipment you may have in your PC or connected to it, such as printers etc.

In a professional environment, Techtalk is a great tool to discover and monitor equipment such as hosts, switches and routers via SNMP, providing that the target device has a public IP address, and the owner’s policies do allow for external SNMP probing. Select the device IP address, community string, SNMP port and disk alarm threshold. In this case, you may want also to poll (monitor) the health of the target device over time, check the box saying “check for polling”, select the polling interval (one minute by default), hit discover and Voila! your target device is now being monitored! If a problem will be found, for example a connection gets disconnected or your disk is running out of space – the appropriate Techtalk tab will be marked, you can open it and click on the component in red text to figure out what is the problem!!

Gaming phone of new genration: Yeah its Android powerd playstation or just a conception

After N-gage no other reliable phone comes with the gaming environment yes their is PSP which is not a portable gaming phone from Sony but still their is a void in the market for the full fledged gaming phone . Now a days Android is the growing OS in the mobile industry and to get ahead from others their conjuction with the  Sony  PlayStation a new portable gaming platform is going to be introduced and the site engaged has displayed a Pic of this gaming platform .

if their is indeed a gaming phone then would run on Android 3.0 “Gingerbread” (a future version of the Android OS), according to Engadget, with a peppy 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 processor under the hood and 512MB of RAM, along with a slot for microSD (not Sony’s proprietary Memory Stick format) storage cards.

So, are the photos for real? A handful of gaming bloggers aren’t so sure and i am one of them, but Engadget is sticking to its guns. Sony, for its part, has issued its standard “we don’t comment on rumor or speculation” line, essentially a non-denial.

And by studying the image their is strong perception that it looks similar in design to Sony Ericsson’s Vivaz Pro.It has a similar shape and flips out sideways to reveal landscape PlayStation gaming keys.In the unofficial picture, the product has a black frontage with white keypad.From the images, the phone does not appear to have a keyboard, just the usual PS keys with a trackpad in the centre of the board.

UK games news site NowGamer claimed that a Sony representative had branded the photos as “definitely fake,” a quote which was later redacted upon request when Sony reverted to its usual stance of refusing to comment on rumor or speculation.

If the rumors are true about this phone then it is set up to release on Christmas so lets see that on Christmas game lovers can actually play on this phone or it will become a short lived dream.

15 minutes fame on YOUTUBE

YES,15 minutes fame you-tube has decided to give you a 15 minute fame still confused actually the previous maximum  time duration of a video is 10 minutes and now you-tube has increased the time duration to 15 minutes.

The video website, owned by Google Inc., said in a blog post Thursday that the longer upload time was the single-most requested feature that its users have been asking for.

YouTube said it had increased the upload limit, after improving its Content ID system and other tools used by copyright owners.

YouTube is even doing a “15 minutes of fame” promotion.

“Imagine that this video is all the world will ever know about you: What would you want to communicate? What will be the enduring stamp you’ve left on us all?” Siegel said.

The best videos tagged with “yt15minutes” and uploaded by Wednesday will be featured on the YouTube home page.

“Because of the success of these ongoing technological efforts, we are able to increase the upload limit today,” wrote Joshua Siegel, YouTube product manager for upload and video management in the post.

In other words, it’s got better at pinpointing video clip ownership, if not at making some money out of the service for the Google mothership.

Security consultant Ron Bowes Software code allows facebook details to be published on file-sharing websites and torrents!!

Canadian security consultant Ron Bowes of Skull Security developed a piece of software code that enabled him to harvest data on Facebook users who have not amended their privacy setting to make their information unavailable to search engines.Due to which the Ppersonal details of more than 100 million Facebook users have been made available to download from the internet via file-sharing websites and torrents.
The list was then made available for other internet users to download via sites such as Bit Torrent.
Facebook said it was investigating the methods used to collect and publish the material but added that the public had not been put at risk.
But internet watchdog Privacy International said Facebook had been given ample warning that something like this would happen. “Facebook should have anticipated this attack and put measures in place to prevent it,” Simon Davies, an official of Privacy International, said.

“It is inconceivable that a firm with hundreds of engineers couldn’t have imagined a trawl of this magnitude and there’s an argument to be heard that Facebook have acted with negligence, he said.

Facebook hit 500 million users in June this year.

WTF You tube is banned in some city’s of RUSSIA

Some Russians citys have banned the youtube for some Hitler video which is identified as a title russia for russians which is on the fedral list of extrist material.
The Russian city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur has ordered ISP Rosnet to “restrict access” to YouTube and four other websites containing “extremist” material.
Prosecutors in the far eastern Khabarovsk region city trawled cyberspace and unearthed several examples of restricted material, including excerpts from Hitler’s Mein Kampf.

A Rosnet spokesperson insisted the company “did not own the resources and therefore could not act responsible for their content”, and further didn’t have “any rights to restrict access to information if subscribers do not infringe upon the conditions of the use of the internet”.

Google Russia claimed the ruling was in breach of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. Spokeswoman Alla Zabrovskaya said: “The court ruling restricts access not to separate videos, but to the whole website. Therefore, it deprives users of free access to information. It is worthy of note that YouTube contains a lot of information including the channel of the Russian president.”

Dexter Season 5 sneek peek at comic-con 2010

I am so happy today by seeing the new promo of dexter because this time there are many questions to be answered from the previous session when  rita dies

How Dexter will cope with the aftermath of Rita’s murder (and the suspicion that will inevitably fall on him) will no doubt keep “Dexter” fans riveted to see what happens next. I caught up with Hall at this year’s Comic-Con International in San Diego, where he was appearing on two discussion panels on July 22: “The Anti-Heroes of Showtime” and “Dexter.” Right before he participated in panels, we sat down to talk about what “Dexter” fans can expect in the show’s fifth season (premiering September 29) and how he’s been doing since his health recovery.

Playstation 4:A future gaming concole from SONY

With cloud-based gaming systems such as OnLive setting up shop, it looked like we might have seen the last of the traditional games consoles, but Sony has revealed it is indeed working on a future console, and that it wants games developers to help out with the design.

Games dev site Develop recently questioned Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios (WWS) big cheese Shuhei Yoshida about the company’s next console. “Yes, we are undergoing many activities that we haven’t yet been talking about in public,” said Yoshida, adding: “some future platform related activities.”

According to Yoshida, work on the next PlayStation will continue Sony’s current strategy of getting games developers involved with the hardware design. The WWS boss says the new president of Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE), Kaz Harai, specifically stated that he wanted to “get World Wide Studios in on hardware development” as soon as he took over from previous SCE boss Ken Kutaragi.

Yoshida says this specifically meant getting Sony’s games developers “in meetings at the very beginning of concepting new hardware.”

SCE Worldwide Studios is an umbrella group containing many games studios around the world, including Evolution in the UK and Naughty Dog in the US, as well as its all of its own SCE game studios in Asia, Europe and the US.

It’s hoped that getting games developers involved at the early stages of hardware development will avoid the delays of potential launch titles.

Although the PlayStation 3 had a standard Nvidia GeForce 7-series GPU design, it introduced a brand new CPU architecture in the form of the multi-core Cell chip, co-designed with IBM and Toshiba. Some developers had trouble getting the most ouf of the new hardware, which Sony later tried to spin as a positive factor.

However, acording to Develop, Yoshida’s comments are a part of a longer interview in which he “candidly explained how Sony has learnt from past mistakes and is now building tech that developers can get the most out of.”

Twelve launch titles were available when the PlayStation 3 launched in the US in 2006, with some key third-party games such as The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Sonic the Hedgehog and F.E.A.R. missing the deadline and being delayed until 2007.

Firefox 3.6.8 comes with a bug fix and beta 4.0 coming with tab grouping

Being a Mozilla user when you face a problem is quite rare. Two days ago i got a problem of adobe crash in mozilla and when i dig a little i came to know that that a new bug fix is available with the latest version of Mozilla.
Mozilla has launched a new update in the time stamp of a week due to a crashing problem.

Now The latest stable edition now is Firefox 3.6.8.

The developers said that this build comes with a bug fix for a problem that was causing stability issues on some pages with plug-ins.

Most of the problems are related to Adobe Flash player in the Firefox browser. Users reported that they could not play YouTube videos after updated to the most recent update.

Mozilla recently enabled a new feature in the Firefox browser that prevents a third party plug-in to crash the entire browser.

And now the next step for Mozilla is the new tab management feature introduced by Firefox approaches tab grouping according to your tasks. It allows you to gather tabs on the same subject of interest into a single group. Moreover, you can launch only that group so that nothing else hinders your web research. The amount of flexibility injected into the new approach allows you to move the tabs from one group to another, stack them up into thumb view or fan them out into a preview window.

Youtube’s test for combine HTML5 and flash player

You tube is now upgrading their player that will support html5 and flash files.the new code will play the video according to the system comparability.

Videos embedded with the new code will be served up in either an Adobe Flash wrapper, or in the company’s HTML5 player, opening up viewing to a potentially broader audience and without any extra effort for the person who embedded a video in the first place.

Google says that the company plans to roll the new code format out as the new default for YouTube embeds, but is running it through its paces first. For instance, one nagging hang-up of the HTML5 player compared to its Flash cousin is that it cannot yet serve up advertising, something Google is remedying by defaulting to Flash.

Since launching its HTML5 player, YouTube has offered a similar viewing experience on its own site, though the convenience was not carried out to embedded videos. Instead, these linked to the clip in an Adobe Flash wrapper, which mobile devices like the iPhone and Android could identify and re-route to the source clip, but browsers without that logic built-in would see nothing at all. The new code fixes that.

If you’ve got Flash installed, it will be business as usual, but if you don’t–and you’re using an HTML5 video compatible browser like Firefox, Chrome or Safari–it will show up in the HTML5 player.

iPhone white 4G get delayed

iphone Customers have to wait get their hands on Apple’s white iPhone 4 until later this year, the company said on Friday, conceding that making the model has proven surprisingly difficult.

Apple, in a brief statement, said that its black iPhone 4 had not been affected. As for the white iPhone, the company said it has continued to be more challenging to manufacture that we originally expected.”

Apple did not provide further details in its statement or give a precise date when the white model would be available.

The newest iPhone, while selling quickly, has created a series of headaches for Apple, the biggest being the suggestion that its design was flawed because of a problem with the antenna.

Chief Executive Steve Jobs, at a rare press conference last week, defended the smartphone, but offered consumers free phone cases to address reception complaints.

Entering Data into Multiple Worksheets Simultaneously

Hii everyone its me Puneet .I am new in this blogging thing and now getting start with a blog about Excel which according to me is one of the most important tool used by most of the business level people .

It’s fairly ordinary to have the same data appear in multiple worksheets simultaneously. You can use Excel’s tool for grouping so that data in one workbook can be entered into multiple worksheets at the same time. We also have a quicker and more flexible approach that uses a couple of lines of Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code.

Two methods by which simultaneously entering of data is done

  • Manually
  • Automatically
  1. Manually:-In this method just by pressing CTRL key and clicking the number of sheets from the bottom the sheets will be grouped together and after that when you will enter the data in the parent sheet the data in the child sheets will be entered automatically
  2. Automatically:- This method is basically for the  office XP and 2003 where is a support for VBA(visual basic applications)

You can overcome these shortcomings by using some very simple VBA code. For this code to work, it must reside within the private module for the Sheet object. To quickly go to the private module, right-click the Sheet Name tab and select View Code. You can then use one of Excel’s sheet events, which are events that take place within your worksheet, such as changing a cell, selecting a range, activating, deactivating, and so on, to move the code into the private module for the Sheet object.

The first thing to do to make grouping work is to name the range of cells you want to have grouped so that the data shows automatically on other worksheets.

Enter this code into the private module:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

If Not Intersect(Range(“MyRange”), Target) Is Nothing Then

‘Sheet5 has purposely been placed first as this will

‘be the active sheet we will work from

Sheets(Array(“Sheet5”, “Sheet3”, “Sheet1”)).Select

Else

Me.Select

End If

End Sub
