Finally Apple Released New iPhone 6S & 6S Plus

As per the expectation Apple introduced its ninth-generation iPhones, the iPhone 6S and the iPhone 6S Plus, at a media event in San Francisco, California on September 9, 2015.This is an updated version of its iPhone series with an identical design and a bundle of new features.

Chief amongst them is a pressure-sensitive display, enabling a feature that Apple calls 3D Touch. 3D Touch allows you to press down on the iPhone's screen to pull up new menus, activate shortcuts, and generally interact with the device in new ways.

While the iPhone 6S maintains the same design and 4.7-inch display size as the iPhone 6, it's being offered in a new color: rose gold. The phone is also built out of several new materials. It's using a new aluminum, which Apple says is its own custom alloy. And its display is now covered with a new glass, the same Ion-X that's used on the Apple Watch Sport. You can play that these changes are, at least in part, designed to make the phone less prone to bending.

3D Touch enables two new ways to interact with the iPhone, which Apple is calling "peek" and "pop." Peek allows you to press on app icons and other buttons to pull up shortcuts directly into specific features. Pressing on the Camera app, for instance, offers the option to jump right into taking a selfie. Pressing on the Facebook app gives you the option of updating your status, taking a photo, checking in, or starting a search. Pop allows you to pull up overlays of photos and videos without actually having them take over the screen; once you move away, you'll be right back to where you were before.

The iPhone 6S will come with a new 64-bit processor, Apple's A9. Usually, Apple isn't giving the details of the processor, but it says that it's going to be 70 percent faster at CPU tasks and 90 faster at GPU tasks, in both cases over the iPhone 6's A8 processor. 

Apple is providing a 12-megapixel rear camera in the new iPhone. This is the first time that Apple has bumped its camera's megapixel count since the iPhone 4S in 2011. The camera is also now capable of recording 4K video, and it's supposed to have an improved autofocus in all cases. It also says that the camera has an improved autofocus. One thing that has not been changed is the lens still protrudes from the back of the phone.

5MP front camera for selfie lovers

The front camera has also been changed now. It's now a 5-megapixel camera with flash: the phone's display just lights up really bright — apparently up to three times brighter than it usually would. It'll also customize the color that it flashes to match the ambient lighting of the atmosphere a photo is being taken in.

Apple has also introduced a feature called "live photos," which will capture a short clip of video alongside every photo that you take. You can turn the feature off, but it's on by default, capturing a second and a half to both sides of every photo. A 12 megapixel image is still captured right in the middle. It's a pretty neat idea — even if HTC and others tried features like this years ago — but there's one reason to be worried about it: storage. All that video is going to take up a lot of space, regardless of how "space efficient" Apple claims they'll be.

Apple is also demonstrating new animated wallpapers on the phone — those may be part of iOS 9 in general, however.The iPhone 6S is also supposed to be getting faster wireless speeds over both Wi-Fi and LTE. Apple says that Wi-Fi should be twice as fast, and LTE is improving with the addition of more bands, now up to 23. Touch ID is also supposed to be improved on this model of the iPhone. Apple didn't go into a lot of detail there, but presumably it'll be faster or more accurate than the sensor on the iPhone 5S and iPhone 6.

Pricing & Availability

iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus will be available in gold, silver, space gray and the new rose gold metallic finishes for $0 down with 24 monthly payments starting at $27 (US) and $31 (US), respectively, from Apple’s retail stores in the US, Apple.com, select carriers and Apple Authorized Resellers.

Exclusively at Apple’s retail stores in the US, customers can choose their carrier and get an unlocked iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus with the opportunity to get a new iPhone annually and AppleCare+ on the new iPhone Upgrade Program with monthly payments starting at $32 (US) and $37 (US), respectively.

Both models will be available in Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Singapore, the UK and the US beginning Friday, September 25, with pre-orders beginning Saturday, September 12.

Apple-designed accessories including leather and silicone cases in a range of colors and Lightning Docks in color-matched metallic finishes will also be available.

So, if you are an iPhone lover go, book yours and enjoy with new version of iPhone smartphones.

Google New Logo Unveiled

Google introduced a new brand on Sep 1, 2015.  No doubt Google has changed a lot in past 17 years in everything. You must be aware of a major update i.e. restructuring of the company. Just a month ago Google has created a parent company called Alphabet. While the new Google logo is still a word mark, but it's now using a sans-serif typeface, making it look a lot more modern and playful. The colors are also softer than they used to be. The logo is a bit more resemblance to the logo of Google's new parent company, Alphabet, as well.

As Google's video introducing the new logo note, the word mark has been evolving since it was created in 1998. But this is simply the biggest change since 1999, when Google first cleaned up the lettering and set up its four colors. The way Google replacing is awesome. What to say of creativity it’s superb.

Making the logo look good even on small screens seems to have a major concern. The new, simpler lettering is supposed to scale better to smaller sizes. It's also supposed to be easier for Google to display this on low-bandwidth connections. Google says that it's made a version of its logo that's "only 305 bytes, compared to our existing logo at ~14,000 bytes." Given that one of new Google CEO Sundar Pichai's big goals is to bring the internet.

I hope this new logo will be even more useful for users and Google across the globe. I personally love this new look. It’s simple & creative too. Thanks

कमाल के कलाम...

एक खास नाम जो कोई पहचान के मोहताज़ नहीं,

जो कल हमारे बीच थे पर आज नहीं...

एक नाम जिसने देश को गौरान्वित किया हर मोड़ पर,

आयो देते हैं आज उन्हें श्रद्धांजलि कर जोड़ कर...

एक  नाम जिसने देश को पहचान दिलाई विश्व में,

अब ना जाने कब पैदा होगा ऐसे अनमोल रतन इस देश में...

एक महान विचारक व वैज्ञानिक देश  ने आज खो दिया,

इस महान सख्स के लिए हिंदुस्तान ने आज रो दिया...

कर्ज़दार रहेगा यह देश उनके महान विचार के,

जिसने सपना संजोया था विकसित भारत 2020 के...

आयो करे हम सब मिल कर करें यह प्रण, 

उनके सपनों को पूरा करेंगें हम...

शोक में डूबा है पूरा देश जिसके नाम पे,

वो और कोई नहीं हम सब के प्यारे कलाम थे...

वो और कोई नहीं हम सब के प्यारे कलाम थे ...

-  डॉ ए. पी. जे. अब्दुल कलाम को उनके निधन पर श्रद्धांजलि

मैं रोज देखता हूँ...

वो सड़कों पर लोगों की भीड़,
कहीं बच्चों की किल्कारियाँ तो कही चीख,

कडवी बातों से दिल को भेदने वाले तीर,

होठों की प्यास बुझाने वाले नीर,                       

ढोंग रचने वाले लकीर के फ़क़ीर,

मैं रोज देखता हूँ...

वो बसों में लटकते लोग,

बीच सड़क पर गाड़ी खड़े करते लोग,

व्यस्त जिंदगी और अपनों से दूर होते लोग,

नलों से बेकार बहता पानी,

कहीं पानी बिन सब सुन की कहानी,

और लोगों का हर जगह मनमानी,

मैं रोज देखता हूँ...

वो रोज बनते हजारो मकान,

फिर भी लोग घरों के लिए परेशान,                                      

बिन मौसम के आंधी और तूफान,

हर जगह आपाधापी और घमासान,

मैं रोज देखता हूँ...

वो रेड लाइट पर भीख मांगते बच्चे,

कुछ मासूम, कुछ सरारती और कुछ सच्चे,

इन सबको को बढ़ावा देने वाले सब लोग अच्छे-अच्छे,

मैं रोज देखता हूँ...

और बस एक ही सवाल उठता है मन में की कब बदलेंगे ये हालात, 

आखिर और कितने दिन और रात...??

अगर आपको ये मेरा छोटा सा प्रयास अच्छा लगा तो अपना विचार कॉमेंट के माध्यम से जरूर दें... 

धन्यवाद...!!

Dance of Democracy – Election Waves in India

As we all know India is the largest democratic country in the world. Being democratic it is also required to have a stable government to rule over the country and work for the welfare of their citizen. Moreover, as per the Indian constitution election occur in every 5 years period. So, election fever of 2014 has begun and it is in full swing now a day.

After seeing the performance of present government in last 10 years and as per the current scenario of country a large number of people are still wondering. There are lots of unanswerable question revolving in their mind just like… “How would be the next government? What is the guarantee that coming government will not cheat the people? How cost of living would be affected for the common man and many more?

Every political party has come in to the battle and trying to woo the people with their manifesto, tempting promises. Although, people are now much aware than 10 years back and they know what is right & what is wrong. Moreover, social media is playing a vital role this time and a mass number of audience especially youths are very active here. So we can say that technology has changed the political environment in the country.

In India political system is mostly based on caste & religion and that’s why politicians are using them for the sake of their own advantage. Still accused candidates are fighting election and every party has given ticket to mafias, dacoits, and culprits somewhere. Party changing has also become tradition now. If a candidate has not been given ticket from their party then they are moving to others.  So, we can say they are only running for their own benefit not for the sake of people. I don’t know when this will stop but it’s really bad for the country.

In conclusion I would just like to say that you must cast your vote as it is your right but choose the best candidate from your location don’t go for the culprits at any cost. If none of the candidate is good you just press the button of right to reject in the EVM. Don’t let any criminal to go in the parliament. It is you who can change the system. It’s a democracy so you have power to choose the right candidate & superior government. I will be back with more post till then keep reading & enjoying.

Thanks for your time. Please share your views through comments.

The Role of Social Mobile Apps in 2014 Indian General Elections

In India number of smart phones users is rapidly growing day by day. As this is the era of modern technology. And of course it is going to play a vital role in coming general election of 2014 too. People across the country use smart phones to connect & share their views with near & dear ones. If we talk about smart phones and do not discuss about applications it is absolutely not justified. We use lots of mobile applications for different purposes in daily life. There are thousands of applications available on the internet for FREE. And off course social mobile apps are getting more popular and we cannot deny the fact of rapid growing users.

As we know most of the good social mobile apps are free and easy to use for android as well as iOS users. People love to chat, send messages, share images & videos through these apps. Any update of the world can quickly be shared with these awesome apps. We people use Facebook, twitter and many more social media sites to share our views. So, social mobile apps is also becoming popular and creating history worldwide. As soon as use of smart phones increases the users of social apps is also increasing. We people use apps for listening music, reading books, news, connecting with people through social apps like WeChat, WhatsUp & even more. These apps have made our life easy. Also, it seems whole world is connecting and will soon be a single place.

As we know social media is playing vital role in spreading the thing quickly among mass number of people across country. The recent example is Delhi assembly election where these social apps and media sites played a key role. Now 2014 general election is going to be held in next couple of months and people especially youths are taking part in sharing their views through these social media apps.

It we talk about the upcoming general election there are more than 160 Loksabha seats in India out of total 540 where social mobile apps user surpasses the total number of voters in that area according to the survey conducted by IRIS Knowledge Foundation and Internet Mobile association of India that means campaigning through this medium may drastically change the results in anybody's favor. As mobile phone subscribers in India have reached 929.37 million out of which close to 400 million are smart phone users. I think this data is enough to show the potential of this platform.

Social Apps have become the part of Life for everybody and especially netizens and youths. Today's youth is passionate & they stand up for things they believe in. They do not hesitate to stand up for issues they identify with. And of course it’s our moral responsibility to mobilize people to cast their vote with the help of these social mobile apps. This is least but not the last and hope this election will see some unbelievable facts with these social apps. Please forgive me if any facts are wrong and misspelled. I have written this post for the contest topic “Indian General Elections 2014 with Social Mobile Apps” of Indiblogger in association with WeChat.

Dance for a Cause – Think, Change the Mindset & Ensure Safety for Women

Why Dance for a Cause?

Friends honestly I had never been a part of such a great moment where everyone danced without any fear on his/her face. I have seen people dancing with different rhythm, song, music and many more in my life but not like this. So, I would say DID has totally changed the face of dance now a days. It has become a revolution now. Although, representing a cause or flashing a message to society with dance is completely unmatched. So, this is what actual “Dance for a Cause” is? Now you have a cause to dance and explore yourself delightfully and in this way you are also giving a message to your society.

Folks I was the part of “Women Safety” team at Indiblogger meet. So, I have chosen the same topic to write a blog post. Hence, I am going to describe “What is women safety? & what can be done to ensure her safety?”

Without women we can’t imagine about the world. They are the base of our society. However, these days, safety of women is becoming an important issue. We usually see lots of news about crimes against women in metropolitans, cities, towns and villages, everywhere. Murder, rape, chain snitching, teasing and sexual harassment are the some dominated crimes against women take place every day. In this situation, taking safety of self is very important for each and every woman. Here are some useful tips that can help women to be safe and protect her.

A woman should always aware from its surrounding. If you are talking with someone, going to a place or just walking on the roadside, always aware from surroundings. If you feel something unsafe or abnormal, you should immediately leave the place. 

These days, teasing is very common against women. But you should never take it lightly. If someone is teasing you, immediately react with a harsh voice. If this teasing is done by a particular person for long time period, you can also complain about them to police station. These days, in almost cities, 24 hours woman helpline numbers are available; you can call on women helpline number of your city at anytime from anywhere. 

Avoid traveling in late night, if it could not be avoidable, always use a public transport. Don’t take a transport without passengers.  Avoid roadside cabs in late night as well. If you are driving car at late night, never give lift to strangers. Always lock your doors and all windows. If you have to drive in late night don’t drink. Also take proper route and avoid shortcuts. Never stop your car for any person you don’t know. 

You can also join a women safety program. There are many such kind of courses are available these days. These courses will make you completely self dependent for your safety. In these courses you will learn techniques that will help you to fight for your safety. 

So, by following these few steps we can ensure safety for women & to make her aware about the facts. We people will have to think & change our mindset that we are nothing without a woman. They must be given respect at each & every stage of life.

 

On 23rd Oct IndiBlogger organized a blogger meet in association with Dance India Dance & ZeeTV. Although, I had attended this meet first time and what an implausible experience it was? It was terrific and we all enjoyed a lot of each & every moment there.

Folks DID is going to start its next season on 26th Oct 2013. So, get ready to see the new face of an excellent dance show-Dance India Dance. Cheers…!!
