How to Set ringtones in windows phone 8.1

Windows Phone comes with a large assortment of ringtones to choose from, but you might prefer to express yourself with the sound of your favourite music, animal, power tool – whatever.

Note

If you can play a sound file on your phone, if it isn't protected with digital rights management (DRM) and if it's smaller than 30 MB, then you can use it as a ringtone on your phone.

You can also go to the Windows Phone Store on your phone to download ringtone apps (or the Windows Phone Store on the web from your PC). You can even use sound files sent to you in text messages.

If you have a sound file on your PC that you want to use, then you can add it as a ringtone a few different ways – depending on the specific type of computer you're using. To find a Windows Phone app that works with your computer, see Synchronising your Windows Phone.

You don't necessarily need an app to add ringtones to your phone, though. You can also use one of the methods listed below.

Top 10 new tech to change the future in 2014

Top Technology Trends for 2014IEEE Computer Society journals, magazines, and conferences are continually at the forefront of current technology trends. That's just one of the reasons that IEEE Computer Society is the community for technology leaders. As a technology professional, keeping on top of trends is crucial. Below are a list of technology topics that Computer Society magazines, journals, and conferences will be focusing on next year:

1. Emergence of the Mobile Cloud

Mobile distributed computing paradigm will lead to explosion of new services.

Mobile and cloud computing are converging to create a new platform—one that has the potential to provide unlimited computing resources. Mobile devices are constrained by their memory, processing power, and battery life. But combined with cloud computing, data processing and storage can happen outside of mobile devices. What IDC calls the "Third Platform" will allow for better synchronization of data, improved reliability and scalability, increased ease of integration, anytime-anywhere access to business applications and collaborative services, rich user experiences, and an explosion of new services.

IEEE Computer Society resources: Rock Stars of Mobile Cloud, scheduled for 6 May in Boston, will cover insights into this emerging paradigm shift from leaders in the field.

2. From Internet of Things to Web of Things

Need connectivity, internetworking to link physical and digital.

Going beyond the Internet of Things, where identifiable objects are seamlessly integrated into the information network, the Web of Things takes advantage of mobile devices' and sensors' ability to observe and monitor their environments, increasing the coordination between things in the realworld and their counterparts on the Web. The Web of Things will produce large volumes of data related to the physical world, and intelligent solutions are required to enable connectivity, inter-networking, and relevance between the physical world and the corresponding digital world resources.

IEEE Computer Society resources: A January special issue of IEEE Intelligent Systems explores adaptive solutions to assist in efficient utilization of the Web of Things.

3. From Big Data to Extreme Data

Simpler analytics tools needed to leverage the data deluge.

It's more than the three Vs—volume, velocity, and variety—that make big data such a difficult tiger to tame. It's that the technology world hasn't quite caught up with the need for trained data scientists and the demand for easy-to-use tools that can give industries—from financial and insurance companies to marketing, healthcare, and scientific research organization—the ability to put the data they gather into meaningful perspective. The current era of extreme data requires new paradigms and practices in data management and analytics, and in 2014 the race will be on to establish leaders in the space.

IEEE Computer Society resources: Rock Stars of Big Data will return to the Silicon Valley in fall 2014 to hear from the experts who are unleashing big data's potential. A special issue of Computing in Science and Engineering will explore the challenges of extreme data, and the solutions for accelerating insights and a July/August issue of IEEE Micro will discuss big data's burden on the compute infrastructure.

4. The Revolution Will Be 3D

New tools, techniques bring 3D printing power to masses.

New 3D printing tools and techniques are empowering everyone from global corporations to do-it-yourselfers to create new devices and realize new concepts more quickly, cheaply, and easily than ever—from car parts, batteries, prosthetics, and computer chips to jewelry, clothing, firearms, and even pizza. A future where digital functionality can be "printed into" a physical object will continue to be built on in 2014, driven by new toolkits, services, and platforms and innovative business models and processes, such as online 3D printing bureaus and crowdfunding sites. Digital fabrication is revolutionizing the way that hardware is designed, prototyped, and produced. Advances in additive processes like 3D printing, and subtractive processes like laser cutting have increased the quality, speed, and ease of physical prototyping while simultaneously bringing down costs.

IEEE Computer Society resources: In recognition of 3D printing's growing importance, IEEE Pervasive Computing magazine in July will sponsor a special issue to explore technologies related to all aspects of pervasive printing and fabrication.

5. Supporting New Learning Styles

Online courses demand seamless, ubiquitous approach.

These days, students from all corners of the world can sign up for online classes to study everything from computer science, digital signal processing, and machine learning to European history, psychology, and astronomy–and all for free. As interest in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) continues to explode, there will be a corresponding need for technology to support these new learning systems and styles. Platforms such as Coursera, with more than 3 million users and 107 partners; and edX, a partnership between Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University with 1.7 million users; are hosting classes with thousands of online enrollees each. And although lectures are still the mainstay of MOOCs, the classes require web forums, online meetups, and keystroke loggers to check identities, as well as powerful servers to handle the volumes. MOOCs and other new online classes are creating a demand for learning that is seamless—happening continuously via different technologies; ubiquitous—drawing from pervasive and embedded technologies; and contextual—drawing awareness from location-based and other sensor-based technologies.

IEEE Computer Society resources: In 2014, IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies will be sponsoring a special issue on the topic because, as editors say, the possibilities for developing new learning technologies is now "greater than at any other point in human history."

Jailbroken Phones Targeted by Hacker Jammers

 One of the problems the BYOD trend poses is jailbreaking -- and then hiding it. "Jailbroken and rooted phones are super dangerous in the enterprise," said Marble Security Chairman and CTO Dave Jevans. "They have no security. They can also have backdoors installed on them, which is why people want to detect and block them from accessing the enterprise network."

Smartphones hacked to run unauthorized programs or unlock features are being targeted by hackers and can pose a threat to enterprise networks, warned Marble Security.

Modifying a smartphone to enable unauthorized behavior -- called "rooting" in the Android world and "jailbreaking" in the iOS realm -- makes the mobile vulnerable to infected jammer software, the firm said.
After jailbreaking or rooting a phone, a user may not be able to use it at work because networks often contain security tools that reject modified phones. To skirt those security measures, a user will install jammer software to hide the fact that a phone is modified.
"A significant percentage of jailbroken and rooted phones have these jammers," Marble Chairman and CTO Dave Jevans told TechNewsWorld.
"We're starting to see them included in rooting and jailbreaking kits," he added.

Evolving Threat

With organizations increasingly allowing employees to use their own devices to perform corporate chores, jammers can pose a serious threat to an enterprise.
Experience shows us that even just one compromised device eventually can lead to a massive breach, Jevans said.
While jammers aren't a new phenomenon, their use is evolving.
"What we're seeing is more of them and they're getting more sophisticated," Jevans observed. "They're actually directly attacking MDM and other systems."
MDM, or Mobile Device Management systems, have been installed by many organizations with BYOD -- Bring Your Own Device -- programs. Those programs can detect jailbroken or rooted devices and prevent them from coming onto the network.
That protection often can be defeated by a jammer, thus allowing jailbroken or rooted devices full connectivity privileges to a network.

Free Apps Have Security Costs

Because free applications for Android smartphones are so popular, developers often resort to building their programs around SDK frameworks provided by advertisers to generate revenues from an app.
Many of these SDKs have been rapped for collecting more information from a user's phone than necessary to accomplish their goals.
That's not the only downside to those SDKs. They also can expose a smartphone to man-in-the-middle attacks.
An SDK installed with an application "calls home," looks for a new version of the SDK, and then downloads it to a phone. It does that to keep the SDK up to date.
"That's where the security issue comes in," Bogdan Botezatu, a senior e-threat analyst with Bitdefender, told TechNewsWorld. "It's being done over HTTP without encryption."
"Anyone listening to that communication can intercept the request to the home server and send malicious information to the phone," Botezatu said.
Making matters worse, no verification of information is done at the phone's end of things. "It just takes whatever's delivered to it from the Internet," Botezatu added.

Phishing Paradigm Change

Phishing ain't what it used to be.
That's the verdict handed down last week by Websense in a special report on phishing.
"Long gone are the days when users are faced almost exclusively with banking phishing," Websense Senior Research Manager Carl Leonard told TechNewsWorld.
"Phishing has become more targeted," he added.
In the past, phishers were content with the low success rates they achieved from massive mailings. "Now they can get higher rates of return through spear phishing," Leonard noted. "They can get high rates of return because the content they send to their targets is very tailored and appealing to them."
The Websense report also identified the five most common subject lines found in phishing emails. They include an invitation to connect on LinkedIn, a mail delivery failed message, a "dear bank customer" letter, an "important communication!" message and a "return to sender" notification.

When Freemium's Good, It's Very Good and When It's Bad, It's Horrid

All too often in freemium games, kids will download the game and then start playing. They are having fun and the game is fantastic. In all likelihood, the developer has worked in a series of minor challenges and rewards to start creating actions -- cues -- associated with rewards -- pleasure response -- that train a kid to not only enjoy and like a game ... but become addicted to it.

When I read a new report on app store trends for 2013 recently, my most irritating fear was confirmed: The freemium app business model has not only won the app sales model, it has handily crushed the paid app model -- squeezed it down into a tiny sliver of relative revenue.

The results are so tilted toward free apps with in-app purchases as a business model, in fact, that even more new apps will apparently be written entirely with the freemium model in mind. That's why I'm sitting under my desk and rocking back and forth as I type this sentence.
Who was the messenger with this lousy news? Distimo, a global app analytics company that tracks more than 280,000 apps and 3.2 billion downloads per quarter. Distimo's 2013 Year in Review report contains a variety of insights into downloads, app leaders and revenue volumes around the world, but the part that really caught my attention was the clear reign of the freemium model.

A Slim Slice of the Pie

Among the discouraging figures from the report are that revenue based on in-app purchases increased from 77 percent to 92 percent in the Apple App Store. Also, revenues based on in-app purchases increased from 89 percent to 98 percent for Android apps on Google Play.
When Distimo put this data into a pie chart, paid app and paid apps with in-app purchase options resulted in overall revenue that resembled a slim slice of pie compared to free apps with in-app purchases.
Namely, in the U.S. at the Apple App Store, paid apps brought in just 4 percent of all revenue, while paid apps with in-app purchase options brought in another 4 percent, for a total of 8 percent. In Japan, those figures each dropped to just 1 percent, and Distimo indicates that the freemium model is even more successful in Asian countries than in western markets.
I had no idea the numbers were this bad.

What's So Wrong With Freemium?

The great thing about free apps is that users can download them and start using them to really see how they look, feel and work. Freemium apps have functionality that works, and users can figure out if they want to really start using the apps for a long time -- or delete them and keep looking for something else, with no loss of money.
Isn't that cool?
Yes, yes it is.
But?
The problem I have with freemium apps -- and in particular, freemium games -- is how nefarious the apps have become. Let's consider games, which bug me the most because they prey on the least savvy and weakest of us all: kids and people with highly addictive personalities.
All too often in freemium games, kids will download the game and then start playing. They are having fun and the game is fantastic. In all likelihood, the developer has worked in a series of minor challenges and rewards to start creating actions (cues) associated with rewards (pleasure response) that train a kid to not only enjoy and like a game ... but become addicted to it.
Like drugs, the initial pleasure response comes from minimal stimulation; also like drugs, however, if the games scale with bigger and better rewards and actions, that can only be satisfied with in-app purchases. Suddenly, kids (and addicted adults) are paying money to progress into the game and even "win" it. In effect, they are powerless to do otherwise.
Hyperbole? No way. What's the first step in the original 12 steps of the Alcoholics Anonymous program? Admit that you are powerless over alcohol and that your life has become unmanageable because of it.
Do you know people who waste an astonishing amount of time on their iPhones? Who have a hard time engaging with the world around them if they aren't holding their iPhone? People who have forgotten how to unplug and have fun without constantly looking at a screen?
Now imagine a world where small children and teenagers always have screens ... and most every app is free -- not just free, but programmed specifically and intentionally for maximum enticement where suddenly it's normal to string you along a series of purposely addictive steps until it seems natural to tap and pay, tap and pay, tap and pay ... in order to "win."
That pains me. It's bad enough that teenage girls are losing their ability to bend their necks up to look and see the sky. As freemium reigns supreme, it's just going to get worse.

Why Is Freemium Evil?

Freemium is not exactly evil -- it just throws open the closet door. The problem I see is that when game developers start purposely using the freemium business model to create apps, it trains their creative minds to think in a certain way. That way is all about inviting someone into the closet and keeping them there, feasting on their soul as long as there is an active credit card still connected to an iTunes account.
OK, that was a little hyperbole, but hey, it's not so far from the truth: The success of freemium will inexorably change how developers approach the features and functionality that they build into all apps, not just games. Instead of buying an app and using it, they'll be created in such a way that features will be offered and withheld in manners of dubious clarity and honesty.
If the app provides true value, if it's up front in what is free and what is not free, if it doesn't implement underhanded, confusing tactics that trick or bait-and-switch users into buying things they did not intend, then freemium is cool.

There Has to Be a Better Way

I wish I could say I had a better solution than the freemium app model. I don't. When it's done well -- when users get to really dive into an app and understand its value, if not get a constant small-but-free taste, then buy more when they really appreciate it -- that's good. I like that.
But the bad -- how can we deal with the bad?
Even if Apple elevated apps that were simply paid, I don't think that would change the freemium landslide. A brief full-access trial before purchase might be workable -- and preferable -- but I doubt developers are willing to turn it into a standard practice en masse. Subscription models, I fear, face an even bigger uphill battle these days.
The only thing I think we can do right now -- and teach our children to do -- is to be utterly ruthless with reviews on sneaky tactics and poorly implemented freemium tricks. Let others know. If buttons are placed to encourage accidental in-app buys, get ruthless. If apps imply one thing but deliver another when you actually buy, get ruthless. If apps start out fun but become obnoxious, say so. Get ruthless.
We have to train our game developers to take pride and care in the product every step of the way. Only then will a "market voice" matter. To me, the freemium business model is not a game. It has reach and consequences.
Personally, I rarely review apps through the App Store -- I tend to write only about the apps I appreciate most -- but now I'm thinking I should review them. Heck, it might even be my duty as an iPhone-toting citizen of the world.
If bad (but always honest) reviews hold power, then it's time for all of us to wield them whenever we can.

Chinese Chat App Exposes Kids to Prostitutes

Today in international tech news: Surveys show that a Chinese messaging app is exposing children to prostitutes. Also: Venezuela asks for Twitter's help in the nation's crusade against black-market dollar exchange; Google China reportedly tried to purchase the "Chinese Yelp" back in 2007; Ericsson strikes a massive deal with China Mobile; Alibaba gives away smartphones to bolster m-commerce; and Microsoft's acquisition of Nokia's handset division is OK'd by shareholders.

China's massively popular WeChat messaging app has exposed school students to prostitutes through its "People Nearby" feature, which is sometimes used by prostitutes as a form of, shall we say, mobile advertising.

A survey among students, conducted in a handful of major Chinese cities, found that the kids had indeed come across prostitutes' accounts when firing up the People Nearby function, according to state television channel CCTV.
CCTV journalists said they reported six of the scandalous accounts to Tencent, the maker of WeChat, but that the accounts remained active when the program ran.

Venezuela Asks Twitter to Help Curb Black Market for Dollars

Having already asked Internet service providers to block websites publishing the black market exchange rate for dollars, Venezuela on Tuesday asked Twitter to block accounts that are linked to such websites.
Following the ISP block, some Twitter accounts have been shooting out links to alternative, thus-far-unblocked sites. The nation's telecommunications agency told Twitter that the company was enabling "a situation that is seriously damaging to the Venezuelan economy." Twitter had no immediate comment.
The black market rate for dollars is more than nine times higher than the official rate.

Ericsson Strikes Deal With China Mobile

Sweden-based telecommunications company Ericsson has reportedly inked a deal with China Mobile to deploy LTE TDD, a variant of the LTE standard currently used widely in China, in 15 Chinese provinces.
Ericsson will provide radio access network technology as well as Evolved Packet Core technology. Ericsson will also expand China Mobile's core networks.
The 15 provinces covered in the deal house 63 percent of China's population. China Mobile is the world's largest mobile operator.

'Chinese Yelp' Turned Down Google China

Sometimes called the "Yelp of China," restaurant review platform Dianping reportedly turned down an acquisition offer from Google China in 2007.
The attempted acquisition, apparently announced for the first time at the recent TechCrunch/Technode event in Shanghai, was for less than US$100 million.
Google pulled its search engine from China in 2010. Nowadays, Baidu holds a 60-plus percent share of the search market -- although competitors are lurking.

Alibaba Giving Away Smartphones

Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba has launched an investment program that includes giving away smartphones.
In an effort to shore up the mobile market, e-tailers are being courted with data analysis tools; guides on how to set up online stores for mobile devices; and, yes, a free smartphone for every subscriber running Alibaba's mobile operating system.
So-called "m-commerce" is booming in China. For example, during the nation's annual online shopping orgy, held on November 11, about 21 percent of transactions were completed on mobile devices; in 2012, that number was just 5 percent.

Nokia Shareholders OK Microsoft Purchase

Nokia shareholders on Tuesday formally (and overwhelmingly) approved the sale of the company's handset business to Microsoft for a cool $7.2 billion.
Microsoft is expected to take control of the Finnish company's cellphone division -- which sold nearly 65 million phones in the third quarter of this year -- in early 2014.

Facebook Releases 'Dislike' Button That Will Satisfy No One

Facebook just released a "dislike" button -- of sorts.
Now if you're using Facebook Messenger, the social network's chat feature, you can let the person you're talking to know how much you totally hate what they're saying via a blue thumbs down.
The "thumbs down" icon for Messenger comes in a newly-released pack of "stickers" available for free in Facebook's Sticker Store and was pointed out by the The Daily Dot on Wednesday. To get the stickers:



1. Go to the chat feature while browsing Facebook on the web or mobile.
2. Click the smiley logo in the bottom right of a chat window.
3. From there, click the shopping cart to open the "Sticker Store."
4. In the "Sticker Store," download the "Likes" pack of stickers.
5. Dislike away!
Check out "stickers" in the "Like" pack below.

Though long demanded by Facebook users as alternative to the "like," the dislike button has been shot down again and again by Facebook. "Actions on Facebook tend to focus on positive social interactions," Facebook engineer Bob Baldwin said during a Reddit AMA in April. "Like is the lightest-weight way to express positive sentiment. I don't think adding a light-weight way to express negative sentiment would be that valuable."
There's also the potential horror show (for Facebook) of users "disliking" all the ads Facebook is now pushing to its users.
Though a fully functional dislike button -- that works outside of Messenger -- remains a fantasy for now, earlier this month Facebook engineers indicated that they had experimented with a "sympathize" button. The button would be more appropriate than "like" for when someone posts about a breakup, a death or even just a bad day.

 

• Clickjacking

  Clickjackers on Facebook entice users to copy and paste text into their browser bar by posting too-good-to-be-true offers and eye-catching headlines. Once the user infects his own computer with the malicious code, the clickjackers can take control of his account, spam his friends and further spread their scam. For example, clickjacking schemes hit Facebook soon after bin Laden's death and spread like wildfire by purporting to offer users a glimpse at <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/05/04/bin-laden-death-video-hoax_n_857730.html" target="_hplink">video or photos of bin Laden's death</a>.

• Fake Polls Or Questionnaires

  If you click on an ad or a link that takes you to questionnaire on a site outside Facebook, it's best to close the page. When you complete a fake quiz, you help a scammer earn commission. Sometimes the quiz may ask you to enter your mobile number before you can view your results. If the scammers get your number, they could run up charges on your account.

• Phishing Schemes

  Phishers go after your credentials (username, password and sometimes more), then take over your profile, and may attempt to gain access to your other online accounts. Phishing schemes can be difficult to spot, especially if the scammers have set up a page that resembles Facebook's login portal.

• Phony Email Or Message

  <a href="http://www.facebook.com/help/?page=1187" target="_hplink">Facebook warns</a> users to be on the lookout for emails or messages from scammers masquerading as "The Facebook Team" or "Facebook." These messages often suggest "urgent action" and may ask the user to update his account. They frequently contain links to malware sites or virus-ridden attachments. They may even ask for your username and password. The best advice Facebook offers is to report the sender and delete the messages without clicking anything.

• Money Transfer Scam

  If a friend sent you a desperate-sounding Facebook chat message or wall post asking for an emergency money transfer, you'd want to help, right? Naturally. That's what makes this scam so awful. The point is to get you to wire money to scammers via Western Union or another transfer service.

• Fake Friend Request

  Not all <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/10/facebook-friend-request-spam_n_821584.html?page=1" target="_hplink">friend requests</a> come from real people, despite Facebook's safeguards against bots. Some Facebook accounts exist purely to establish broad connections for spamming or extracting personal data from users, so watch out whose friend requests you accept.

• Fake Page Spam

  Malicious pages, groups or event invitations aim to trick the user into performing actions that Facebook considers "abusive." For instance, a fake invite might offer a prize if you forward it to all your friends or post spammy content on their walls. Sometimes a scammer will set up fake pages as a front for a clickjacking or phishing scheme.

• Rogue Apps

  Malicious apps are pretty common on Facebook these days. They can be a cover for phishing, malware, clickjacking or money transfer schemes. Oftentimes, the apps look convincingly real enough for users to click "Allow," as they would do with a normal Facebook app. However, rogue apps use this permission to spread spam through your network of friends. For example, the recent "<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/08/facebook-closing-accounts-scam-app_n_846737.html" target="_hplink">Facebook Shutdown</a>" scam spread by claiming that Facebook would delete all inactive accounts except those that confirmed via app installation.

• The Koobface Worm

  The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koobface" target="_hplink">Koobface worm</a> is getting on in years (it first appeared in late 2008) and has been mostly scrubbed from the site, but Facebook still warns users to look out for it. Koobface spreads across social networks like Facebook via posts containing a link that claims to be an Adobe Flash Player update. Really, the link downloads malware that will infect your computer, hijack your Facebook profile and spam all your friends with its malicious download link. This worm affects mostly Windows users.

How to add adsanse ad code in blogger post

All You Need provide lot of articles on Blogger and online earning and there are lot of other sites which provide articles on blogger so i don't think so now anyone unfamiliar with the name of blogger and Google Adsense. People are using blogger because it’s totally free, secure and easy to manage. As we all know this fact that Adsense is one of the best way to earn some revenue from the good content which articles writers and bloggers publish on internet and at the same time Adsense offers best rates to let you earn more and more.

One of the most basic blogger's mistake which many bloggers made and that is bloggers are not familiar with xml and html so in this way they use some weird structure of template. The best way to get more revenue from adsense you have to embed ads in every post on the blogger that can be placed at the top of the post or at the bottom of the post. If you have tried to copy and paste the Adsense code in your template directly then i am sure you get an error like: ”Unable Parsing Template – Blogger template Error” so then you try to add your adsense code in widgets or in the sidebar, which isn’t of any use because CTR gets down. Below are the steps which use to insert adds code into the blogger posts:

• Login into blogger.com account.
• Now go to blog where you want to add the Adsense code in posts.
• Now go to templates and click “Edit HTML” then a window will popup which will show XML code of your template.
• Now press “Ctrl+F” and then find “data:post.body” any thing which you will write before this tag will appear at the start of the post body and any thing which you will paste after this code will appear at the end of post body.

• So, now add ad code which you want to show in the blogger posts. 

Magic begins here! 

• Now copy the code but first you will have to use an HTML entity converter.
• So, now go to this HTML Entity Converter and page the code at Text Input and then press Encode Text and copy the Adsense converted code from the bottom Output field.
• Now copy this code and paste it before the <data:post.body> or after the <data:post.body> to make the add show before or after the post. 
• That’s it! So now you can easily try similarly add Adsense code any where in your blog template.

Charge Your Phone From Your Power Tools With This Handy Adapter

Smartphones have become an essential tool in every line of work, from corporate accounting to carpentry. But often times those working on construction sites don't have easy access to a power outlet for a quick top-off when needed. They do, however, have access to power tools. And with this clever adapter they can harness a drill or saw's rechargeable battery to recharge their electronics.
At launch the PoweriSite will work exclusively with most DeWALT rechargeable batteries, providing two USB ports that can even be used to recharge a power-hungry tablet. It's compact enough to fit in a pocket, or better yet, a toolbelt, and is as easy to use as a wall charger.

Anyone donating to the PoweriSite's Kickstarter campaign can claim one for just $12. But when the adapter's finally available that price tag will skyrocket to $15, so it's better to take a risk and snatch one up early. And remember, the power tools aren't included, but you find yourself a hard hat and you can wander in and out of any construction site you like..

Microsoft Sets a New Threshold for Windows Development

Developers are key to Microsoft's efforts to gain a foothold in the apps market and create a cohesive Windows ecosystem. Its upcoming OS refreshes, code-named "Threshold," will strive for commonality across its three main platforms -- Xbox, Windows and Windows Phone -- making it easier for developers to work on apps that can flow easily from one screen to another

Microsoft's wave of operating systems updates planned for 2015 has been code-named "Threshold," ZDNet reported.

They involve the addition of a set of common elements -- high-value activities such as Microsoft Office, possibly the coming "Remix" digital storytelling app, Bing, Intune and Workplace -- to Xbox One, Windows and Windows Phone.
The commonality of the updates "makes a lot of sense as Microsoft surely wants to create an ecosystem where apps from a vendor can exist easily across the three screens Microsoft has long touted -- Xbox, Windows and Windows Phone," Wes Miller, an analyst at Directions on Microsoft, told TechNewsWorld.

One Approach to Rule Them All

The Xbox One OS, Windows 8.x OS and the Windows Phone 8 OS currently share a common Windows NT core.
Increasing commonality across all three will be in line with the One Microsoft vision outgoing CEO Steve Ballmer articulated earlier this year.

What Threshold Might Offer

Succeeding with mobile devices, Windows, Office 365 and Microsoft Azure will be foundational, Ballmer said in July. Xbox and Bing also will be key future contributors to financial success.
High-value activities such as serious fun, meetings, tasks, research, information assurance and IT/developer workloads would be championed at the top level, Ballmer said.
"I expect that [from] early 2014 with Windows Phone 8.1, Microsoft will begin beating the drum to promote services of all kinds across all three screens -- Intune, Office 365, Power BI for Office 365, Bing, Xbox Gaming and any other service," Directions on Microsoft's Miller remarked.
Gaming and entertainment, which includes books, music and video, "will surely continue to be a focus," because Microsoft "will try to parlay the Xbox brand into more than just Xbox One," he continued.
Threshold's contribution to serious fun might mean games will "flow more easily between the platforms so you could conceivably play Xbox games off your PC, something I'd advocated years ago -- and, at times, off your tablet and Windows phone," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld.
The gaming market is huge and growing. Consumers in the United States spent US$1.72 billion on digital games during Q3 2013, according to the NPD Group. They forked over $1.3 billion on new physical video and PC games, and $436 million for used and rented games.

The Hard and Painful Stats

Having commonality across the different OSes will let Microsoft "flow the applications more easily across the platforms and make it even easier for developers to support all of them," Enderle suggested.
The company needs to attract devs. Apps are the lifeblood of mobile systems, and this is an area where Microsoft is lagging far behind Apple.
About 1.7 million apps were downloaded from the Windows Store for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 in October.
However, Apple's App store saw more than 74 million downloads daily between June and October.

What About RT?

The lack of reference to Windows RT has fueled speculation that this particular Microsoft OS will be phased out.
That possibility was raised after the new head of Windows, Julie Larson-Green, recently told the UBS Global Technology Summit that Microsoft eventually would not have three Windows OSes, although she did not elaborate.
"I don't see Microsoft backing away from the Windows RT investment," Al Gillen, a program vice president at IDC, told TechNewsWorld.
On the other hand, Windows RT "appears to be merging with Windows Phone, which is interesting, given many of us argued that the Windows tablet OS should have come from Windows Phone," Enderle pointed out. "In effect, both will be replaced by an OS that will bridge the two form factors."

All Things Appy: 5 Best Chrome Apps for Book Lovers

Google's Chrome browser can be a nice way to enjoy your favorite books, and there are numerous apps out there offering extra features to enhance the experience. Our favorites: Kindle Cloud Reader, MeeGenius Children's Books, Google Play Books, English Audio Books - Librivox, and 100% Free eBooks & Audiobooks. Take one of these for a spin and you may not go back to paper or classic audiobooks

Books in a multimedia environment bring certain advantages not available on paper alone or via classic audiobooks. Among those advantages are audio accompaniment for text and cloud syncing of notes and highlights.

 

Add to that the lower distribution costs of multimedia over paper and the browser becomes a good tool for books. You don't need an e-reader or a tablet.

In this week's All Things Appy we take a look at the best free Chrome browser apps for books -- not only free apps but free books too.

About the Ecosystem: Google's Chrome apps and extensions for its browser are obtained in the Chrome Web Store. Open Chrome on a PC and select a new tab; then choose the new-look Chrome Web Store tile on the page and use the on-page Search box to find the app you'd like to use.
Installed apps are now available in the Chrome bookmarks bar.


No. 1: Kindle Cloud Reade



Kindle Cloud Reader has 4 1/2 stars out of a possible 5 from 1,497 reviewers in the Chrome Web Store. The app has 1,261,255 users.

Scroll through your Amazon Kindle book collection and read them from within the Chrome browser.

Cloud-like features include the ability to see and edit bookmarks, notes and highlights that you've made on other Kindle-enabled devices. Last pages read are synced, and your current book can be read offline, too.

No. 2: MeeGenius Children's Books


MeeGenius has 4 stars out of a possible 5 from 385 reviewers in the Chrome Web Store. The app has 107,971 users.

This app reads beautifully illustrated children's books. One in-store reviewer comments that this app saves a lot of work at bedtime. Maybe, but MeeGenius also highlights the words on-screen in sync with audio, and kids can read the books themselves too, without the audio playback. A pause button helps with recapping.
Free titles include fables "Jack and the Beanstalk" and "The Field Mouse and the Town Mouse," among others.

No. 3: Google Play Books


Google Play Books has 4 stars out of a possible 5 from 2,210 reviewers in the Chrome Web Store. The app has 1,869,956 users.


Four million books are available for browsing along with numerous preview pages. The app boasts that it has millions of books available instantly for free too, which it may well do, but they're embedded with the paid books and so difficult to find without a title.
You have some work to do, in other words, and the app has a runner-up position in our list as a result.

No. 4: English Audio Books - Librivox

English Audio Books - Librivox has 5 stars out of a possible 5 from one reviewer in the Chrome Web Store. The app has 1,104 users.

Public domain audio source LibriVox provides access to more than 3,000 audiobooks including novels, biographies and so on, all recorded by volunteers.
One of the advantages of audiobook via Web browser is that you can read along with the text if it's provided, and it is here. So, this app is highly suitable for learning English too.

No. 5: 100% Free eBooks & Audiobooks

Freebooksites.com's 100% Free eBooks & Audiobooks has 3 1/2 stars out of a possible 5 from 31 reviewers in the Chrome Web Store. The app has 21,765 users.

This app isn't really an app, it's more of a compendium of resources to find free and very cheap books, but we're including it because it is a good source.
There's a bit of work to do, because you need to scroll through endless links to get anywhere, but it does have a massive list of free book resources.

iBangle puts the iPod on the wrist

When it comes to iPods and other MP3 players, not much has changed about them in the past few years. Sure, the memory is getting better all the time, but the design is the same: they clip on the belt and the obligatory wired earplugs.
This iBangle design concept is a little bit daring as the design fits right on your wrist instead of clipping to your belt. Don’t let its loose look fool you, the iBangle won’t easily slip off like other “clip-on” MP3 players. Apparently, that tiny blue button that you see in the illustration somehow fills the blue area with air, so it fits snug, but hopefully not too snug.
As for the earphones, forget about it! The audio sound is transmitted via wireless earbuds. So how do you navigate through tracks, you may ask? Just use the multi-touch track pad.
Now, if only it had a way to play video files. Perhaps a screen could be put on it, and the iBangle could pass for a watch.
Too bad this iBangle remains only a concept from designer Gopinath Prasana. Apple, this could easily be the next big thing for MP3 Players, so please feel free to put one million iBangles into production.

Surface Pro Woes

The highly anticipated launch of the Microsoft Surface Pro tablet went over well. How well? So well that inventory levels appear to be minimal just two days later. Shoppers flocked to Microsoft’s website at the stroke of midnight, February 9 to place orders but encountered frustration. 128GB units ($999) ended up selling out, leaving 64GB units at $899 as the available option. Other shoppers chose to visit Staples or Best Buy, only to find only a couple units on hand – which, of course, went quickly.  Speculation is that total inventory levels were lower than anticipated. Could it be an effort to portray it as more popular? Was there supply chain issues? Or was that Microsoft’s intention? Who knows.

As we discussed in January, the Surface Pro is a Microsoft PC in a tablet’s body. Windows 8, Intel chip mean it performs like a computer. A touch screen mean it functions like a tablet. We will soon see what the market has to say about the latest Microsoft product and whether the PC performance in a tablet product will succeed. Keep in mind that Microsoft has had their share of successful product launches which are followed by less than average sales. But with the popularity of tablets perhaps long-term Surface Pro demand will live up to that experienced on launch day .

Normandy May Lead Nokia's Surprise Android Attack

 A funny thing happened on Nokia's way to Microsoft -- it decided to make an Android phone. The low-end smartphone market is where the money is, but to make it there, a phone has to have access to a wealth of apps. Although Microsoft has been working feverishly to ramp up Windows mobile app offerings, its catalog is paltry compared to Android's stockpile.

 

 

 

 

Nokia might be planning a shift away from its Windows Phone base in future smartphones -- even as the mobile phone unit of the business heads to Microsoft.

The company is working on an Android phone as part of a push into the low-end smartphone market, according to The Verge. Several sources close to Nokia suggested the company is working on the project under the code name "Normandy."

Nokia reportedly is testing the device with a forked version of Android that doesn't skew to Google's version of the operating system -- much like Amazon has customized the OS for its Kindle Fire tablets. However, Normandy will support Android apps including Skype.
"The low-cost smartphone is the growing volume segment market in both emerging and developing markets," Jim McGregor, principal analyst at Tirias Research, told TechNewsWorld. "[Nokia] would have a better chance with Android because of the larger app base, but it's a critical part of the market that no handset vendor can afford to ignore."

Asha Replacement?

A leaked image of the handset appeared on the Twitter account @evleaks last month, depicting a device that has a similar appearance to Nokia's Lumia line, but without any physical buttons. Normandy reportedly is envisioned as an equivalent to -- or replacement for -- Nokia's Asha line as it bids for success in the low-end market.
Those who were working on the Normandy project apparently were told the device was on track for release next year.
"Nokia is working closely with Microsoft, and they have been fairly successful at building the Windows Phone [devices]," telecom analyst Jeff Kagan told TechNewsWorld, "but Nokia is not limited to working with Microsoft. Not yet anyway."

Microsoft Concern

"It would be a concerning development for Microsoft, because Microsoft is looking for increasing market share of Windows Phone," Carl Howe, vice president of data sciences research at the Yankee Group, told TechNewsWorld.
"I don't think Nokia Android phones count, whether they're owned by Nokia or Microsoft. I think that would be problematic in terms of their competition for market share," he observed.
"[Android is] an inexpensive platform and one that's pretty well-known. It has the advantage of having a pretty big app store. Despite Microsoft's claims, Microsoft World still doesn't have a big portfolio," said Howe.

Deal Set to Close

If Nokia doesn't bring the phone to market before the Microsoft deal is final, there is always the chance that Microsoft might cancel the project. The company is in the midst of buying Nokia's handset wing and a 10-year license for Nokia's patents for US$7.2 billion. The European Commission approved the deal last week.
Meanwhile, Microsoft reportedly is planning to offer its mobile operating systems -- Windows Phone and Windows RT -- for free. That could be its next move in its battle against the proliferation of Android, the open source OS Google provides to manufacturers for free.

Premium Push

Since Nokia makes up the bulk of shipped Microsoft-powered handsets, Microsoft's acquisition of the handset business will wipe out any licensing fees anyway. Microsoft may instead look at an ad-supported model for its mobile operating systems while pushing consumers to sign up for premium products like Skype or SkyDrive.
Whether such a move will allow Microsoft to make gains on Android is questionable.
"I am not forecasting Microsoft market share ever exceeding single digits," Tirias' McGregor said.
"They are chasing competitors and a market that already had critical mass. They should have given the OS away several years ago when they had the opportunity," he maintained.
"In reality, they've been giving those away for free anyway," the Yankee Group's Howe said. "They might have licensing costs, but at the same time they're providing marketing incentives to the OEMs, which coincidentally match or exceed the licensing costs. It may be a zero-price license, but it's still a licensed product."

Facebook Just Hired A Man Who Teaches Computers To Think (FB)

The race is on to create computers that can see, hear, think and reason like humans but with a computer's speed and accuracy.
IBM has its Watson. Google has its new Quantum AI Lab in partnership with NASA and the Universities Space Research Association (USRA).
Facebook has a new artificial intelligence lab it announced in September. And on Monday, Facebook hired a star from this world to run it: New York University professor Yann LeCun.
LeCun announced that he was joining Facebook on a Facebook post. He'll be running the lab part time, teaching part time and overseeing a partnership between Facebook and NYU's Center for Data Science.
LeCun has a long history inventing computers that can think. His handwriting recognition technology is used by banks around the world. More recently he, along with University of Toronto Geoffrey Hinton, have ushered in advancements that let computers teach themselves, a concept called "unsupervised learning."

In March, Google hired Hinton. So by hiring LeCun, Facebook has scored a notch in its AI belt, too.
This next generation of artificial intelligence is called "deep learning" and this man is so well known in the field that both Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook CTO Michael Schroepfer attended a deep learning conference in Tahoe on Monday and announce the hire there, LeCun said in his post.
Facebook, IBM, and Google aren't the ones working on deep learning. In October, Yahoo acquired LookFlow, a startup known for its deep learning image recognition tech. Teaching machines to recognize pictures is one of the holy grails of deep learning. Imagine telling your computer to collect pictures of your kids smiling and it finds them for you.

HTC One gold edition launches

The Taiwanese handset maker is the latest to give its flagship handset the luxury treatment.

The HTC One in one of its more regular shades of silver, black, blue or red is already a wonderful device and often described as the iPhone of the Android world. And with

such a reputation it should come as little surprise that the
company has decided to take another leaf out of Apple's book and offer a gold version of the phone.


However the makeover is skin-deep. Underneath the gold-colored body is the same Snapdragon processor, amount of RAM and software.

The move follows a similar decision by Samsung to offer its latest phone, the Galaxy SIV, in a limited edition gold-toned finish in September.

Samsung's phone debuted two weeks after Apple released its latest flagship, the iPhone 5S, which, as well as graphite or space grey, also comes in gold.

Following the handset's official launch event on September 10, developers at the company revealed that the gold version of the device had been referred to as "The Kardashian Phone" internally.

It is worth noting that none of the handsets are covered in actual gold but, if real gold is more your taste, there are a number of boutique jewelers that specialize in offering real gold-coated Samsung, Apple and HTC handsets, such as Gold and Co and Gold Genie.


HTC gol smartphone gives different level to HTC;s top smartphone one with gold body n chips .

Want to make money with Google AdSense for content? Here's a list of what not to do, unless you want to get banned. Google doesn't play around when it comes to click fraud. Click fraud loses Google money, and it loses AdWords customers money.

If you don't play by the rules, you may get a warning, you may get suspended, or you may just get banned.

1. Commit Google Don'ts

The first thing to avoid is any of the Google Don'ts. Cloaking, keyword stuffing, and title stacking are all ways to get banned from Google searches. They're also ways to get banned from AdSense.

When you place AdSense ads on your site, your site is far more visible to Google and it's much more likely that your rule breaking will be caught.

2. Click on Your Own Ads

No matter how tempting, never ever click on your own ads. This is probably the easiest way to get your site suspended or banned. It's a form of click fraud, and Google is very good at catching this, even if you think you're hiding your tracks.

Don't let anyone who uses any computer in your home click on your ads, either. Make sure your significant others and children are aware of the rules, or you could jeopardize your standing with Google.

3. Hide Your Ads

It might be tempting to hide your ads by making them the same color as your background or camouflaging them on areas with busy background images. You do still get paid for pageviews, so invisible ads would still pay, right? Don't even try it. This violates Google's Terms of Service, and it's easy to get caught.

Don't stuff your ads far below the rest of the content, either. Clicks pay better than pageviews, so it's to your advantage to have your ads prominent. Try to make the ads look like they belong on your page.

4. Beg for Clicks

Don't hold ad-click contests, beg, or even give big hints that people should click on your ads. They can ban you if they catch you begging for clicks anywhere on the Web, including pages that are totally unrelated to your AdSense pages.

Google also forbids labeling your ads with language stronger than "sponsored links." This is really for everyone's benefit. Pages that beg for clicks are usually not great reads, and pity clicks don't help the advertisers.

Note: It's fine to have contests on your Web site that aren't related to ad clicking or other rule breaking, such as "best photo" contests.

5. Alter the Code

AdSense generates javascript code that you can copy-and-paste directly into the HTML of your Web page. If you need to change the color or size of your ads, generate new code from AdSense. Don't make changes to the code from your Web page editing program or tweak it by hand.

If you put AdSense in Blogger, Google will generate the code for you from within Blogger.

6. Use Robots to Click on Your Site

Never use any sort of automated tool to inflate your page views or click on your ads. This is click fraud of the highest order, and Google is very sophisticated at catching this. This is a trick that can easily get you banned.

Likewise, don't use human-powered schemes to pay for clicks, either. No trading clicks with other AdSense users, and no pay-for-clicking schemes. If advertisers wanted to pay people for clicking, they would have signed up for it themselves.

7. Tell People How Much You Earn Per Click

Google is very picky about how much you disclose about how AdSense works. They don't let you tell people how much you were paid per keyword, because this could jeopardize revenue from AdWords advertisers. Beware of anyone who offers to sell you this information.

8. Make Pages Specifically to Display Ads

Google says you can't make pages simply to hang ads, "whether or not the page content is relevant." Many Web sites, including About.com, make money from ads. Google itself makes most of its money from advertising. What makes the difference between ad sponsored content and content for the sake of ads?

When you develop your site, your first thought should be about creating content, not ads. Avoid writing empty sentences for the sake of generating keywords, and avoid lengthy copy-and-pastes just to make more pages. Every page you publish should have a content-driven purpose.

9. Make Content About Taboo Topics

Google has a strict list of content standards, and they don't accept AdSense on pages that are violating them. These include, among other things, sites that promote or sell:

• alcohol
• certain weapons
• firearms
• tobacco
• drugs
• designer knock-offs

This is a silly rule to violate, because AdSense is keyword generated, so it's amazingly easy for you to get caught. If you do have content that violates these rules, such as a beer-making supply store, they may be legitimate sites, but AdSense is not for you.

10. Cheat in Any Other Way

This isn't by any means a comprehensive list.

I'm sure there are many ways to game the system that Google hasn't found out about... yet. There always are. AdSense is constantly changing to find new ways to detect click fraud, and eventually you will be caught.

The best way to generate income through AdSense is to create good content that is well optimized for search engines and to promote your site through legitimate channels.

That sounds like a lot of work, because it is a lot of work. However, it's a strategy that won't get you banned.
