Into the world of jQuery..
Oct 5th
As you must have noted by now am a freelance web-developer. Just recently I started learning JavaScript with jQuery. Yeah I know, as always too late to get into these stuff..
Well jQuery features made my eyes open! Wow! It is so simple yet powerful, you could edit the DOM – Document Object Model ‘anytime’ after the loading so easily. and the effects, widgets, themes, all of it makes Web Development a child’s play! So I started playing with it too.
I’m currently renewing my personal website to this ‘Feature-Rich’ environment.
I wanted my website to be creative yet simple. I didn’t wanted it to be a bloggy-style one. So I started checking out for my other options, suddenly I got this idea, why not Vista? I am using one. Why can’t I give my site a ‘Vista Compatible’ mode? So I started working with the ‘Vista Project’. I named it ’WowVista’ please don’t ask me why I can’t answer that, “Trade Secret” ;P
I hope it gives you a Vista look and feel. Enjoy!
iPhone can be hacked with a single SMS!
Aug 1st

Charlie Miller, the hacker who discovered a hole in the new Apple Safari in ten seconds in the Pwn2Own contest, can now take complete control of an iPhone by merely sending a text message. And no, you don’t even have to open it!
Once taken control, the hacker can exploit the hole to make calls, steal data, send text messages, and do basically anything that the user can do with his iPhone. Miller and his partner Colin Mulliner demonstrated this scary scenario to CNET writer Elinor Mills at the Black Hat Security Conference on July 29, 2009. The two are professional researchers with a security firm and are just showing Apple the many security loopholes in their device.

Twitter members not as live as first thought
Jun 12th
BARELY a tweet is heard from most Twitter members despite the soaring popularity of the micro-blogging service, according to a pair of freshly-released reports..
Web analytics firm HubSpot found that nearly 55 per cent of 4.5 million Twitter members monitored have never “tweeted” — fired off concise text messages to others using the micro-blogging service.
More than half of Twitter members have no followers and about 55 per cent of them aren’t following anyone else’s micro-messages, according to a “State of the Twittersphere” report by HubSpot.
Meanwhile, a study by Harvard Business School researchers concluded that 10 per cent of Twitter members account for 90 per cent of tweets.
“A typical Twitter user contributes very rarely,” Harvard MBA student Bill Heil and assistant professor Mikolaj Piskorski said in a university blog post containing the findings.
“Among Twitter users, the median number of lifetime tweets per user is one.”
Will Microsoft BING replace Google Search??
Jun 6th
Now another search engine comes to compete with others. This time its from the software giants – Microsoft. It is named as BING. You can view it at www.bing.com. As you can see its damn fast comparing to Google search!
, you wont believe it until you try yourself!
Actually Microsoft first tried its fortune in search engine market by introducing live.com Even though it made some attractions it was not upto people’s expectations. Then they started searching for things people need today from a search engine. So they came to a new term – search decision engines. BING actually makes decisions by reading the user’s minds.
Well it works some how. So here we are now we have to accept Microsoft’s awesome work. More >
