How to Puppy Shame Urself in Facebook

Let's see How to Get Puppy Shamed in Facebook.

Click the below Image to view in full screen and then read the blog


Yesterday, I was hanging out with my friends in Facebook wall, Suddenly I noticed my Facebook ticker popped up with a message with my relatives (very old man)
  • Mr.XXYXZ has read the following news.
  • Poonam Panday goes topless
I was like, what Mamaji , what are you reading. In a minute the reputation is gone, even though he has not committed any sin or crime, this is a very much embarrassing situation.
Then I started doing my research, what went wrong, where and how?

  • First He has subscribed to Yahoo App, without knowing any privacy features, he has allowed yahoo to publish the articles he read in the yahoo site.
  • This is the main reason for the most embarrassing situation or being puppy shamed.

  • Yahoo is not the only app does this, there are other apps like Washington post,
    Recently, my friend saw some “Actress Spicy Video Songs” in DailyMotion and the same has been published in his wall too.

    What We should know?

    First of all, think twice when approving any app to your Facebook, Do you need that ?
    Every App has it own privacy setting, you can either remove the option to post on your Facebook wall or you can make this post visiable only to you.

    Now Iphone 4s and IOS 5 has completly integrated with twitter, windows phone melted with Facebook, Android with FB ,twitter and Google +.

    Now all your so called personnel devices are no more personnel, one wrong move you are exposed to all. So be careful, learn , have knoweledge of the application before using the same.

    What I want to Say is... Use Social network wisely

    Don't get caught ...

    Will Apple Fall Again, Will History Repeat ?

    Way back in 80’s when Xerox engineers came up with their ingenious Mouse and window based Operating System. The Xerox Boss laughed and said what do you think, we are going to sell mouse and put the project on scrap.

    Young Engineers thronged to the Xerox center to study the Alto and Steve Jobs gave a commercial hit with the Mouse and GUI based or Window based Operating System to the world.

    When all was going well ,Microsoft came in to the play , they developed (they indeed screwed Apple over icons and Dialog patent) a GUI operating system called Windows.

    Stop Stop , this is a very old history, why we should talk about this now.

    Because the war is out again, indeed in the same style. that time it was PC and this time it was Mobile platform

    Then

    Microsoft created Windows Operating System and distributed to multiple Hardware Vendors and that indeed cost very badly to Apple, Still now they are not out of it. The Status quo has changed from then.
    appvswin

    Now

    Google has created a open source Operating System Android OS (decent copy cat of iOS) and doing the same, its distributing the Mobile Operating System to various hardware vendors . Apple is still going with its Hardware + Software Bounded Model, which has already cost them the huge PC market.

    android_logo

    Now to more foray Microsoft has launched its new Mobile Operating System, which means they also providing the software to multiple hardware.

    windows-mobile-7-techcreeper

    New Mobile OS are all set to come from Nokia + Intel called MeeGo, so the race is heating up.

    Now if you take the stats , Once Apple iPhone has no competitor but now Google’s Android is capturing the smartphone market.

    Now the Big Question is will Apple release iOS for other hardware ?

    For me this is a simple question but for the company its a huge strategy shift, that will change the whole stuff.

    But Apple has won our hearts with its cool creation iphone(same way they won with MAC long back). Will the History Repeats????…..

    Presenting New Group Feature In FACEBOOK

    Everybody Knows Group Feature or Listing is already available in FACEBOOK(FB) , Don’t think what I am going to talk about.


    Problem Scenario:

    I usually get lot of friends request from Family and some old so called friends or unknown or Friends of Friends, I was either forced to accept (in case of family) or ignore the friends request. I personnaly fell FB is my second world and I don’t want to show case to the whole real world. As of now in FB its either take it or leave it.

    Solution

    FB has revamped their existing Group or List feature , now we can post status, pictures, link, notes etc and share only to the group. The notification will go only to the group members. I think its really one awesome feature, FB has worked to increase privacy of the user.

    They will provide a group email id , so that we can upload photo via Mobile phone or email and it will be shared only to the Group.

    The Group will be displayed in your Home page Left side widget and it will show you specific notification count for each group (This is quiet interesting)

    Other Features

    Secret Group

    What ever you post on Group will be visible only to the group members, but the group name and members of Group will be visible in your profile. If that is also a problem then you can set a option called “Secret” to create your own secret group.

    Group Chat
    FB is introducing Group Chat, so that you can chat with your complete group, its really going to be funny

    Download All
    FB now will compress all your photos, message, status updates as on zip file and will mail to you, you can keep it as for backup

    For More information : Check the Facebook Event 2010

    5 Dead Services of Google

    1. Google Wave

    The Uber cool hyped collaboration tool was finally dead. Google has very recently told they will stop all the future development of Google Wave.
    Purpose of Creation:  A Web app for real time communication and collaboration
    Reason for Failure: Too many options that confused the users, ultimately led to its failure

    2. Google Video

    It was actually started before youtube surfaced in Internet , Google video could never reach the popularity of iFlims or Youtube. After acquisition of youtube, Google’s attempt to change youtube as google video was a flopshow, they retained youtube and dropped Google Video

    In a recent statement Google admitted that maintaining Youtube was costly for the company , hence we are seeing some pricing for the videos

    3. Google NoteBook

    The Idea was to take notes while we are browsing, it was integrated with Google Toolbar too, but the service did not go well, Google has stopped  developing it but still supports the old users. But how long

    4. Google Answers

    Google launched this service against Yahoo answers , but things did not go as planned, it literally failed, now its officially retired , look the Google’s statement
    Google Answers is no longer accepting questions.
    We’re sorry, but Google Answers has been retired, and is no longer accepting new questions.
    Search or browse the existing Google Answers index by using the search box above or the category links below.

    5. Other Unknown Services

    Jaiku – it’s a micro blogging platform same as twitter, but it never went up as twitter. Google has officially stopped development but its given as open source for others to maintain the same

    DogeBall – This service was replaced as Google latitude , it’s a location based service. User can text about their location and find location and friends.

    Google Mashup Editor – Not much information is available for this, it was said to be a place where developers can test their code.

    Google Lively – it’s a really cool social networking which has ability to create avatars, your own house, even space station , chat with friends, I guess something like virtual reality but it never went up and they have closed the service.

    Future Services to Die (All My opinion only)
    Orkut

    • Google Buzz
    • Google Calendar
    • Google Alert

    Feel Free to tell about others. What ever even Microsoft had great flops like Microsoft BOB, Vista etc..

    People’s Choice : Blogspot too :(

    Is Google Image Search Reliable ?

    The Much Hyped Apple Ipad is out, lets try to get some picture of Apple Ipad using the famous Google / Bing and Yahoo Search

    Search Keyword : Ipad

    Google

    image

    Where is the Apple Ipad Image no way Google Images has failed us. Let try our hand on

    Bing

    image

    Not So bad but it too failed to get the desired image results

    Ok I am tired of this I am going to call my old friend Yahoo, lets check whether Yahoo can deliver

    Yahoo

    image

    To my surprise its giving the latest ipad images with cache day also and its still able to provide the exact ipad pictures in next pages too

    So the winner is our old Yahoo :) Google and Bing need to catch up with your Search bots they are showing the very old images.

    So guys if you are searching for some images in Google please don’t think you cannot get else where. Google Image search was not that good, same goes with Bing and try Yahoo also.

    Please always try various options rather than dying with one
