Social networking sites such as Twitter and facebook has been barred for Government employees for official communication.Now the central government will issue an advisory to prohibit such social networking sites in the official systems. 'An advisory prohibiting the social networking sites must be immediately issued' said the division bench of acting Chief Justice BD Ahmed and Justice Siddharth Mridul.
By doing so about five million account holders who are using their email ids for official communication will be having great difficulties.But it has been proposed to have a national e mail policy for the official communication of government employees which emphasis on secure access and secure usage of data by them.
It is also mentioned that the usage of email accounts whose servers are situated outside India and the transmission of official data across them is a violation of Public Records Act.So thus came the suggestion for a national e-mail policy which is in consonance with the Public Records Act so that the transfer of official data across the nation will be barred.
Android wear ,the new Operating system from Google has been emerged.A version of its framework for mobile devices that is designed specifically for wearable technology such as smart watches and allows for voice control of the technology.
The first Android Wear release is aimed solely at smart watches, which have become more popular in the past year as Pebble, Fitbit and Samsung have introduced styles that connect to smartphones and offer instant information on a user’s wrist. Google expects to have Android-powered smart watches on the market by the end of the year, and is working with several electronics manufacturers, including Motorola and Samsung, chipmakers such as Intel and Broadcom, and the Fossil Group and other fashion brands.
The most interesting twist in Tuesday’s announcement was a focus on voice controls for smart watches, with Sundar Pichai, Google’s executive in charge of Android and Chrome, emphasising the ability to use the keywords “OK, Google” to launch an array of possible commands for the software to follow.
“Just say ‘OK, Google’ to ask questions, like how many calories are in an avocado, what time your flight leaves, and the score of the game,” Pichai wrote in a blog post. “Or say ‘OK, Google’ to get stuff done, like calling a taxi, sending a text, making a restaurant reservation or setting an alarm.”
Pichai, who announced a developer preview of Android Wear in the blog post, also said users could give voice commands to a smart watch that would activate other connected devices, such as a smartphone or Chromecast, which streams digital content to a user’s television screen.
Analysts are optimistic about Google’s ability to perform in the wearables space with Android, which has stolen the market share lead from Apple’s iOS mobile operating system in smartphones and tablets.
Google’s announcement has the potential to “push wearable technology into mainstream acceptance. It can’t do anything but accelerate an already fast-moving space”, Jeffrey Hammond, an analyst in Forrester’s application development and delivery group, told the San Jose Mercury News last week.
The potential for wearables is huge, many analysts believe. IDC analyst Al Hilwa predicts “the era of wearables (will) see its heyday beginning in the first half of 2015”, while Global Equities Research analyst Trip Chowdhry said last week “the world could be very different six to eight months from now” because of wearables.
But Bob O’Donnell, founder and chief analyst with TECHnalysis Research, was wary that Google’s success with Android-based smartphones and tablets can be translated into wearable devices because of the challenges of converting smartphone technology into something as small as a wristwatch.
“Most watches are less than two inches diagonally that you look at several feet from your eyes,” O’Donnell said. “With something that’s that dramatically cut down, you cannot possibly leverage any existing applications. You have to start completely from scratch. It’s going to be a completely different animal than Android.”
Dropbox is now trying several things to be in the top of the cloud storage companies.Since the emerge of google drive tight competition has been going on in this field.Cloud storage company Dropbox has announced that it will allow users to switch between business and personal profiles with a single click. This will eliminate the hassle of having to constantly sign in and out of accounts.
The fix applies to users of Dropbox for Business, and according to the verge the feature will go live on 9th of April. The company has already started notifying users of its Dropbox for Business service about the same. Dropbox has been testing support for multiple accounts since last November.
Given that the businesses are increasingly embracing cloud storage, serving them often tends to be more profitable than catering to individual users. Box, a competitor of Dropbox, did exactly this by shifting its focus to businesses that are willing to pay a premium for the service.
In the public domain too Dropbox has taken a hit with tech giant Google recently slashing monthly rates for Drive storage. With the company steadily moving towards an IPO, targeting corporate users seem to be the only way forward, where there is a bigger emphasis on tools rather than just plain and simple online storage.
Now its a good news for the flappy bird addicts.The game is returning with new features. FlappyBird creator Dong Nguyen tweeted that his infamous game would be returning to the App Store.
Nguyen originally took the game down because he claimed it was ruining lives. When the app arrived, people became obsessed with the notoriously difficult game. When Nguyen announced he was removing it from the app store, he received disturbing death threats from people on Twitter.
Earlier this month, Nguyen explained he would have the new version come with a warning telling people to take a break.
Its a good news for the sedan lovers. A new car from a premium developer has been launched in the Indian market. Its a sedan which competes with Dzire,Etios and Amaze. When compare with all these models since this is the latest and that too from Hyundai, this comes a little ahead.The Hyundai Xcent compact sedan has been launched in India. It is the first sedan from the company to follow the hatchback-to-sedan route taken by so many manufacturers, and it is precisely those manufacturers which have to look out for this sedan. Hyundai wants to be the biggest player in the mass-market segment and it has been pretty aggressive with past launches, the last which included the much acclaimed and loved Hyundai Grand i10. The Hyundai Xcent is essentially a Grand i10 with a boot stuck at the back.
As with most other compact sedans in the country, the Hyundai Xcent looks exactly like its hatchback sibling except for the rear. The Grand i10 is a much loved design and one of the more sedate executions of the Hyundai’s ‘fluidic’ design concept, and the Xcent gets the same traits. The swept back headlamps, the small grille, the massive air-dam, ‘diamond-cut’ alloy wheels, big inverted-curve line on the side and the front and side glass house area is ditto like the Grand i10. Move further back and you see the boot, which has been blended in well though it does look boxy if looked straight on from the back, a chrome strip above the number plate holder, a spoiler integrated onto the boot-lid and new tail-lamps. Oh, and the new bumper as well.
Dimension wise, the Xcent grow in length by 230mm to 3995 mm, managing to fit under the 4-metre mark and thus qualifying for excise duty cuts. Otherwise the car is similar to the Grand i10 hatchback. The boot space at 407-litresis the largest in the segment.
As with the exterior there is almost nothing that separates the way the interiors of the Xcent look from the one in the Grand i10. The dual-tone interior is the same, with the three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, the console mounted gearshift, the circular A/C vents, etc. etc. There are some things that are different though, the seat covers are not dual-tone like the ones on the hatchback, it is all beige. The second thing is that the rear-bench gets a centrearm-rest with cup-holders
Performance and Handling
Hyundai has plonked in the 1.2-litre 82 BHP / 113 Nm petrol engine and the 1.1-litre 71 BHP / 180 Nm diesel engine from the Grand i10 in the Xcent too. The diesel motor has been tuned for more torque than the Grand i10, and delivers about 20 Nm more as compared to the hatch. The diesel motor is only available with a 5-speed manual tranmission while the petrol motor is also available with a 4-speed automatic transmission.

Good news for the android and nokia lovers. Here comes Nokia's first android phone.CEO Stephen Elop specifically mentioned that these were "not Google" service devices, but rather would interface with Microsoft's suite of online products. This, of course, excludes the Windows app store, which makes the X series something of an oddity. Many have speculated that the X series may meet an untimely end once the Microsoft acquisition of Nokia is completed, but for now, Nokia is moving full steam ahead with these handsets, and the first of them is available "immediately."
Nokia introduces their first android phones in the market last month. The NOKIA X, NOKIA X+, and NOKIA XL are the three varients which are similar in the outlook but differ in the internal features. Nokia XL is a dual sim phone which has unique features when compared to other android phones in the market.The Nokia XL is the biggest of the three devices and has the same screen resolution(which can make things a little blurry), but 5inch smartphones are the way to go these days and Nokia has done it superbly with the Nokia XL. Like the other phones in the Nokia X, series the Nokia XL too will have access to various App markets along with Nokia’s own app market.
The XL definitely looks to be the best bargain of the three - even at a 20 Euro premium over the entry-level X, the XL's superior cameras, larger display, and more capacious battery seem like pretty hard upgrades to ignore considering just how little you're paying for them.
We know little about Nokia's X Platform OS at this point, though it looks vaguely reminiscent of Windows phone, at least more than it does the old Asha OS. Apps will be provided on a, you guessed, Nokia-operated app store, and Nokia likely plans to court Android app developers into porting their apps en masse to the new platform. It appears Plants vs. Zombies 2 and Skype are already on board - the new X phones even come with a free month of the Skype Unlimited World Subscription in "select markets."
