Facebook Messaging- Email reinvented


At web 2.0 summit, California, Mark Zuckerburg announced the release of new Facebook Messaging services, its a exciting stuff which would consist of email,IM and SMS altogether, making conversation much simpler, less formal, and easily accessible to all ages. soon you can request for a "urname@facebook.com" id for this service.

Everybody needs to communication but if we observe different age groups have different pattern of communication.The high school kids prefer sms rather than emails as has more procedures than sms, a bit older generation may prefer chatting/ IM (Instant messaging) than texting or they may use emails or similar, so the facebook thinks if it could combine
Texting-IM-Email together then it would be serving all category of people.

It claims that this is Email reinvented yet not killing it!!! hope it serves its purpose...

Cheers

The Santa, who gifted the most successful search engine to the world, was about to open a new gift from the same bag this Christmas. Former CTO of Sun and the current CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt, released the "Chrome Operating system- Powered Laptop" in San Francisco recently. Google is spreading its wings in all the sectors of technology be it the Google ebook store or the Nexus mobile, and now the Chrome OS,the R&D of google is blooming, however, the success of each product is yet to be tasted. About the Chrome OS- laptops, which will be manufactured by Samsung and Acer would consist of Intel Atom processor (with mini 12.1 inches screen). In spite of being released from the technology giants like Google the company decided not to put any logo or branding on the laptop . It looks like, company wants the laptop, to achieve success through its performance and not through the logo on it. Hope it wont turn down like the Nexus.That`s not all it comes with a 100MB permonth

I always wanted to write something about the placement experience that i had during my final and pre final year B.E, thanks to Mr. V. N. Kulkarni,Head, Training & Placement,NMIT for implementing this idea of Share and Care. My intention of sharing is not just giving some tips for getting through the interview, I am sure u can search those in Google. What exactly I aim to share, is the state of mind of that student on the day of placement, who’s going to switch from learning to earning mode in life. I can relate the placement day situation to a typical Cow festival in villages, where in lots of well domesticated Cows (here we the trained engineers) are sold (placed) in market according to their quality and ability. Later the cow works for the master throughout the life, hence Lesson#1-Identify your master ( your company) well, so do your homework before- have a good study about the company. Make sure where u want to be after 5 or 10 years, so plan. I remember
