USB Watch Concept – Simple way of Carrying Memory Stick


If you are looking for a simple way to always have your data available to you without the need to use a the cloud. A new USB watch concept has been designed which provides a simple watch style solution you can wear on your wrist.

With the popularity with the mobile, there are not many people still wear their watches. While the USB watch in this post might change those people’s mind. The USB watch concept by Yoon-jin Gon, Yoon-tae Myoung & Kim Sung Hun is designed as a simple way of carrying your memory stick in style – on your wrist. A 10-minute romp with the computer charges it enough to tell you the correct time for a week. What’s more, every time you hook it up it syncs in automatically with the computer’s time. You can also check the current memory status at the touch of a button. This is a clever integration of functionality, utility and simplicity. Too bad it is still a concept design. Otherwise it will be a great gift for person like me who also lost/misplaced my memory stick.

The USB watch concept has been designed by Yoon-jin Gon, Yoon-tae Myoung & Kim Sung Hun and after a quick 10 minute dock in a computers USB port will have enough power to keep the time for up to a week.

And I love it as well! The USB Enjoy is a simple way of carrying your memory stick in fashion. A 10-minute romp while using computer charges this enough to tell the correct time for the week. What’s more, every time you hook it up it syncs in automatically with the computer’s time. The Directed display shows you the actual memory status on the touch of a button. I do believe it’s a clever integration of functionality and electricity.

Facts and science behind deepavali*(INDIAN FESTIVAL)


 Facts and science behind deepavali
The word Deepavali is a combination of two words, deep (lamp) + avali (row). Thus deepavali is a line or a row of lamps so during the festival of Deepavali (also known as Diwali), lamps are lit everywhere. It is celebrated on four consecutive days - the thirteenth, the fourteenth and the new moon day of the dark fortnight of the Hindu lunar month Ashvin and the first day of the bright fortnight of the Hindu lunar month Kartik. These days are celebrated as Dhanatrayodashi, Narakchaturdashi, Lakshmipujan and Balipratipada respectively.

The first story is from Ramayan, which describes Diwali as the day when Lord Ram returned victoriously to his kingdom of Ayodhya after defeating the demon king Ravan of Lanka. Lord Ram was given an arousing welcome, and the entire city dazzled with Diyas. This was later celebrated as an annual festival called Deepavali or Diwali.

The second reference is related to Lord Krishna. Once there was an evil demon called Narakasura, who was a tyrant and was forever oppressing the common people. All of them prayed to Lord Krishna to relieve them from his clutches. Thus, Lord Krishna came and after an intense battle, he killed Narakasura using his Sudarshan Chakra. The people rejoinced, lit the city with lamps, and this incident came to be annually celebrated as Diwali.

If you look at the common thread between these 2 legends, it portrays the victory of good over evil, of light eclipsing the darkness, and of righteousness holding forth against all odds. Thus, the Diwali festival is a very symbolic one that extols us to kill our inner demons (negativities) and purify our soul by lighting it up with goodness.

Some exclude the thirteenth day and consider only the remaining three days as Deepavali. Since the festival of Vasubaras (a celebration held in the honour of cows) and Bhaubij (a festival honouring the bond between brother and sister) respectively precede and follow Deepavali they are included as a part of Deepavali. However, in reality, these are separate holy festivals.

The science behind celebrating Deepavali

1. During the four months preceding Deepavali, the absolute fire principle (tej tattva) is almost absent in the atmosphere. As a result of this, in earlier times, mighty demons used to dominate and trouble the masses. To be able to counter their threat effectively, Deepavali, which is the worship based on the absolute fire principle, was celebrated. So Deepavali stands for destroying the distressing elements that dominate the environment, with the absolute fire principle.

2. Science behind Abhynga Snan

The tradition of abhyang snan' or the ritualistic bath, is as much a beauty regimen as part of the festivities. The idea is to nourish the skin with a layer of Ayurvedic oil and fragrant utana or powdered herbs. This traditional Diwali-morning bath ushers in the most important day of the festival Laxmi Puja, which will be observed this year on Friday. 

It's not all about rituals; there is a lot of Ayurvedic science behind the abhyang snan. Keeping the winter in mind, the special abhyang oils contain elements that repair cracked skin. 

"It has been seen that abhyang oils curtail problems arising due to cracking of the skin and curb the ageing process. These oil are known to control obesity, and also enhance the fat element in extremely thin people," says perfumer Prasad Gaanu of Manohar Sugandhi. 

3. Science behind Crackers. After rainy seasons lot of creatures like mosquito are born the smell of of sulpher drives away from the residential areas. The Sulpher acts anti biotic for the skin diseases which are expected due to dry skin.

On the day of Lakshmipujan (worshipping the Goddess Lakshmi), rituals are undertaken to drive off poverty (Alakshmi).

The first day of the bright fortnight of Kartik (Balipratipada) is celebrated to symbolise Lord Vishnu's conquest over the demon king, Bali.

Bhaubij celebrates the slaying of the evil demon Shakatasur by Sri Krishna and the Bliss experienced by the multitudes of women He liberated from the demon's clutches. It also said Yama went to meet his sister Yumana on this day hence it is celebrates the divine bond of love between brother and sister.

Our culture tells us that every day of Deepavali represents the conquest of good over evil, piousness over immorality and virtue over vice; all illuminated by the Deepavali lamps.

Today, Deepavali is celebrated in such a way, that it shows, that all the above has unfortunately either been forgotten or just remained as a namesake. Hence we are losing on an opportunity of getting the full benefit of the divine consciousness (chaitanya) that is integral to all our festivals and celebrations.

Gambler’s Excuse to Gamble

One of the not-so-great aspects of Diwali is gambling. It goes back to a dice game that the goddess Parvati played with her husband. She said that on this night, any gambler should do well. On top of that, there’s also saying something about the threat of being re-born as a donkey if you do not gamble during Diwali. As a result, gambling is very popular for this week.

Interview Materials

What is HTML 5 and why it's important for the web.


What is HTML5?

HTML5 is the latest version of Hypertext Markup Language, the code that describes web pages. It's actually three kinds of code: HTML, which provides the structure; Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which take care of presentation; and JavaScript, which makes things happen.

What's so great about HTML5?

HTML5 has been designed to deliver almost everything you'd want to do online without requiring additional software such as browser plugins. It does everything from animation to apps, music to movies, and can also be used to build incredibly complicated applications that run in your browser.

There's more. HTML5 isn't proprietary, so you don't need to pay royalties to use it. It's also cross-platform, which means it doesn't care whether you're using a tablet or a smartphone, a netbook, notebook or ultrabook or a Smart TV: if your browser supports HTML5, it should work flawlessly. Inevitably, it's a bit more complicated than that. More about that in a moment.

What does HTML5 do?

We've come a long way since HTML could barely handle a simple page layout. HTML5 can be used to write web applications that still work when you're not connected to the net; to tell websites where you are physically located; to handle high definition video; and to deliver extraordinary graphics.

When will HTML5 be finished?

HTML5 is an evolving standard, so it's a bit misleading to talk about when it'll be finished. What's important is that HTML's features - such as the aforementioned geolocation, web apps, video and graphics can be used now, provided your browser supports them.

Microsoft rocked the world when it joined with Intel and now the company is have join ventured with Nokia on Windows Phones. Still the Nokia Lumia 800 was only released in U.S but most of the world has to see what it really is. With the power of Nokia and Windows things are really awesome when it comes to the usage of this device. Never the less Microsoft and Nokia are standing against Android and till now Android rocked all the way. We already know when it comes to Windows we are always were let down on performance especially on phones, let’s see if Nokia can make this better.



6- Apple iPhone 5

Apple iPhone 5 is the one device that is most anticipated for 2012. We were already let down when most of us were expecting to have iPhone released instead of iPhone 4s. This 2012 gadget is expected to have A5 processor chip, higher-resolution camera, iCloud service, and the screen will be 4 inch in size.


7- PlayStation 4

We have a confirmation from Sony for PlayStation 4 that they are working on it. We might get a sneak peek in 2012. There are lots of rumors about what not and what this device will have but what we can say is Sony will do its best to make this device stand above than others.

Xbox 360 can be said a device that saw success and a long life but that time is almost over.

There are few reports that this device will have 8 core processor, 4K2K. live TV, webcam, Multi TV, 3D, and GPS to view other users locations on the map. There are rumors that we might see this device in 2011.

9- Quad Core Tablets And Smartphone

After the introduction of NVIDI Tegra 3 for hand held devices, the Dual Core processor tablets has been dropped in rankings. ASUS already have introduced its ASUS Transformer Prime tablet with a Quad-Core. The speed of this device is just amazing. We are expecting to see more devices in 2012 from other vendors.

Until now, Dual-Core tablets and smart phones were the top line but not anymore. NVIDIA introduced its NVIDI Tegra 3, being the first Quad-Core processor for a hand held device. ASUS jumped on the bandwagon, and introduced its ASUS Transformer Prime, becoming the first one to develop a Quad-Core tablet. It was simply blazing fast, and other tablet and Smartphone manufacturers (HTC, Samsung, Acer, Toshiba) are now getting ready to adopt it and move on to Quad-Core. So 2012 would likely be the year of Quad-Core devices.


10- UltraBooks

More and more people are expecting to see a lighter and more powerful Ultrbooks in 2012.

The device supports a Quad Core Processor, two analog stick, touch screen, 4-bit color with a resolution of 960×540 qHD, pixel density of 220 ppi, and a new design.

13- Facebook Timeline

The only expectation from this new feature of Facebook is the availability to all the users. The Facebook Timeline was launched in Sep 2011 and Facebook was sued by Timeline.com for its trade mark. We have to see what happens but as the past shows us nothing can stop Facebook to roll out this feature to all its users.


And Last But Not Least
