Friday, January 23, 2009

Have you always wondered how to send a SMS more than 160 characters ? Here is a solution to this simple problem solved by an ex-Army Telecom Engineer at CleverTexting.

If you are an Engineer or atleast have that aptitude, then from a theoretical point of view you always know compressing SMS text is feasible, but no implementation of it were available. With SMS accounting for more than 4% of the overall revenues of Indian Mobile Service providers, SMS compression comes in handy for the Indian user. With CleverTexting Software installed on your mobile phones, you can pack upto 210 characters in a single SMS. It is easy for the end users as the software takes care of the compression. However, the recipient of the SMS also needs software so that it can be uncompressed and presented in a readable form.

CleverTexting software also attempts to solve another problem of typing SMS. Its algorithms are developed to predict the next key which is likely to be presed by the user and position it ergonomically such that it becomes really easy to compose the message.

You can download CleverText SMS compression + Easy Character Prediction software and install on your mobile phones. It is absolutely FREE to use and works with your touchscreen phone as well :-) Do let us know your feedback.

L K Advani Blogged - Campaigns on the Web

Saturday, January 10, 2009

BJP leader L.K. Advani has taken a leaf out of US President Barrack Obama's victory lesson - take the election campaign to the Web. Advani's supporters has launched a full fledged Website LKAdvani.in The beauty of this site is, Advani has gone Web 2.0 savvy and has started a blog. The site also has a forum for active discussion and open for suggestions.

Microsoft should be worried since L.K.Advani is powered by Open Source Products:
  • Content Management system Joomla
  • Hosted on CentOS [Enterprise Linux]
  • Served by Apache/2.2.3
Additionally, the campaign committee is making use of Google's AdSense, the best global advertising platform on the internet. We bumped across the ad shown above - "Advise BJP on How to Win the Polls" on RetailMantra, BusinessLine etc

It is really nice to see Advani getting Web Savvy in his early 80s :-) So can we expect speedy deployment of e-Governance across India if he gets elected as the PM ?

Android to Power Converged Devices ?

We are finally entering the era of convergence for office productivity. Smart phones such as Google G1 / Android, iPhone, Windows Mobile are cool. However, they lack support for certain applications for which you still have to carry your Laptops and the drawback for these Laptops is the battery life.

Going by the current trends and innovations in the Valley, one can soon bid goodbye to Laptops and carry an extremely light weight Notebook [image on left] which can last without any recharge for a day. Powered by Qualcomm's SnapDragon Chipset [ARM Core] at 1.5GHz, Support for Wireless 3G / HSPA with integerated GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth sub-systems. This also has display resolution upto WSXGA or 1440x900.

Android the Platform which evolved for smart phones and supported by Open Handset Alliance is portable to these devices. It will be interesting to see if these devices will replace the Laptops powered by the Windows / Intel lobby. What do you think ?

Microsoft's 30GB Zune Fails WorldWide

Thursday, January 01, 2009

Microsoft's music player - Zune has started collapsing since the 31st of Dec worldwide according to reports pouring in. Many frustrated users have been abusing Microsoft of ripping them off with badly designed product (nothing unusual I'd say for MS). Here is a YouTube Video showing the Freeze.

Microsoft's Matt Akers has acknowledged the problem of mass failure of their Zune 30GB Player due to internal clock driver unable to handle Leap Years :-) The Zune player should correct itself by Jan-1st. Microsoft has said that it will update the firmware before the next leap year.

This is bound to happen because at Microsoft Developers interview the standard questions are framed by Steve Baldy - like why is the Manhole cover round instead of looking at Best Code Dev Practices.
