I think transferring files between computers can be very uneasy at times. Have you ever saved an important file to a disk or CDR, got it home and found that the disk is corrupt? Or maybe an important backup that went wrong? I know I have. With most computers these days having some kind of Internet connection, having your own personal disk drive stored in the Internet is an excellent idea. You can upload your work, get home, download it again and continue where you left off.

Although most of my friends these days use Winzip, I don’t mind looking around and experimenting with something new in technology. I have been going through all the latest news on Gigaom and believe me friends, register yourself there and you will never be left behind in some hottest inventions. When I heard about online storage concept I had to check it out. A rather funny picture came to my head, with all the files floating in space (don’t know why!). Read more…

That was my reaction when I heard about a networking site Bigadda (Bigadda means spoiled) but it actually meant big adda (big hangout). I browsed through the site just to see what is the hype all about. You hear about it on Big FM. Believe me guys it’s just a stylish version of DesiMartini.com (whose ads has been making rounds of the TV now-a-days.) The layout, the whole look of the site gives the same feel as DesiMartini. It has certain resemblance to Hi5 as well. If you see the site it will remind you of a mix of a lot of social networking sites running currently. Except the login page I think they have not put in much effort in anything. Read more…

As newspapers, blogs and media are all anxiously propelling out news on the new applications for iPhone, I couldn’t resist writing about it as well.

With the new Internet technology taking over in a big way, iPhone apps have been the most interesting innovations. CRM provider Etelos - which has already gripped some popular platforms like Google Apps, Netvibes, Pageflakes and Windows Live - announced on its blog about an Etelos CRM suite of modularized CRM tools, for use on the iPhone.

Another new application in the iPhone splash is the Clippz.com. This service allows you to download “optimized video clips” from the Internet to a mobile device (a process it calls ’sideloading’). Clippz.com has announced that they are offering more than 500 MySpace, Metacafe and YouTube collections encoded in Apple iPhone’s H.264 file format. What else can one ask for!

Well, its will be too early for me to comment in terms of development. Infact I came across an article on the new development platform for web-based iPhone apps, the first of its kind. And to add to action Adobe AIR and Google Web ToolKit (GWT) are likely to participate in iPhones apps too.

The excitement around iPhone web applications is soaring day by day, and why not? We all are waiting to see some more action by iPhone developers.

So let me know what iPhone apps have you seen that have tickled your interest and you can’t wait to use?

Thanks to my friend who invited me to open an account with GMail few years back. I remember the first thing I noticed after logging in was that Google’s email had a simplistic interface, which I liked. The UI of GMail was drastically different than anything I’ve ever used for email before. Here are a few excellent advantages of having a Gmail account: Read more…

If there is anything on web that can be stated as “fascinating,” it’s creating a Web application. After all, when was the last time you heard someone rave about the interaction design of a product that wasn’t on the Web? All the cool, innovative new projects are online. Read more…

I have a whole lot of friends with Orkut accounts. I tried exploring it few times and noticed few flaws in the manner it functions. I see more "friend" requests on Orkut than I have seen on any of the other Social Networking Websites.

I must say though, after taking a look at the site content I was surprised to see the public information being displayed. It isn't limited to just friends, or friends of friends, but instead is easily available to anyone who would care to see it. In fact, other than your name and how many "friends" you have, your relationship status is the most prominent thing listed. Do I really want to know if my business acquaintance and distant friends are single, married or divorced. Read more…
