Getting Bored in internship…


I am sitting alone in the Computer Center of Projects and Development India Limited and its really boring since I joined here on 13th June this year, I just completed my project work on a project which I codenamed “VENDM” a Vendor Management System, I was stunned when came to know that the company has no Software to manage the Vendors, The company previously used the Microsoft Excel Sheets to keep the records which all of you obviously know is a big old kind of thing, I was instructed to develop a software for this, but I choose to develop an Online portal which will be able to run on LAN so that the whole database will be on one server.The development started 2 days after I joined here, since I received all the sample sheets of the company 2 days later after joining them, On 15th June I started working on the project and the development work was running very smoothly and I thought that I will be able to complete the project in  a matter on approximately 10 days, but 5 days after I completed half of the project, I got my all the logic wrong when I got stuck into a problem which I was unable to solve and after 5 hours or so, I came to a new Project Development Procedure and started the development once again from Zero…..That was really a bad feeling to be working again from beginning, The project was first intended to provide three different interfaces 1 for Admin, 1 for the Vendors and the other one for the employees of PDIL, which was than reduced to only Administrators because I got all my logics wrong and has to start it from the beginning. I started by creating the forms followed by creating all the databases and then  designing the interface which lead to the Connection of the databases to the interface and all the forms, grid views and list views. The day came when I completed my project from my side very early on 24th May, I had to show my completed project to my project coordinator out their at PDIL, I thought its all over for me now, but I got some more tips for improving the VENDM from my project coordinator, I thought them ok and just did changes to it and the next day I was ready again to demonstrate VENDM to him, I got some more tips, I again made some changes to it and got it more sophisticated and simpler with his help, I visited him again, I didn’t remember but I think 2 or 3 times more and some improvements in it.This is 30th June the last day of this month and I have completed my project work from my side, I think that there’s nothing much to do in this now and I will get out of this today, Still waiting to demonstrate my project to my project coordinator. I’m writing this in the middle of the day, sitting on a chair in the office….hoping to get a green light for my project so that I can demonstrate it to the Materials Department who manages the record keeping of vendors and get my internship completed successfully as I have some more works to finish.

Google trying hard to take down Facebook…


Google seems to be working hard these days modifying their design and interfaces of all of their websites, I opened Google 2 days back and saw the Google Navigation bar go Black, with an Orange Line on selected item, looks awesome!….and today morning when I visited http://www.google.co.in , saw a whole new design of the search engine with a trendy look……seems to be inspired from Microsoft’s Search Engine Bing. That was about Google.

Yesterday I visited YouTube, and What I got was a the YouTube’s media player turned into black, I thought after visiting Google.com that YouTube may also have a new interface but…..a big  NO….Nothing was changed, The Black Colored player looks awesome, but What I think is that Google needs to change the interface of YouTube to give it modern look, The interface totally doesn’t match with the player.

And finally the much awaited Google + Project , every body is waiting for and some people are already using it, The new Social Networking website and Guess What Google People are already saying that it will change the Social Networking experience and will be the best ever Social Networking platform ever built on this planet. Google directly targets to get Facebook down to earth with their Google + Project……Let’s hope all of us can get Google + Project soon….You can get a glimpse of it here http://plus.google.com

The Curious Case of Win Start Button by Digit


This month’s digit was what I’ll call the best ever DIGIT I’ve ever read since my subscription back in 2005, DIGIT’s June edition featured enormous technologies that we may see in the upcoming future, from what most of us have seen in the Hollywood movies to what most of you have thought impossible. Here’s one of the article from the HOW EVERYTHING WORKS section:

The Curious Case of Win Start Button helped me know the whole mechanism behind the working of the Windows Start Button which is being hit more than 15 million times in a month….

Here we Go:

* Process Initiation: I pressed the Win Key and a scan code (binary code if the Win Key) is generated.

* Keyboard microcontroller interprets scan code and stores it in special memory till the processor is ready. A hardware interrupt is sent to CPU for further action.

* Initially the interrupt from the microcontroller is kept in a queue, till the processor is free. On coming across the scan code, it is routed to OS. The OS decides for what task the key was pressed.

* The OS invokes the Explorer which determines that the Win Start key was pressed. Necessary 0s and 1s are generated to be sent to RAM.

* The explorer calls the OS to display the output on the monitor. OS reads the RAM and sends the output to the video memory of the graphic card.

* Mission Achieved: and tana*(&*^& You Got it …..Yes the Start Menu is in front of you.

When They Become reality…


Most of you must have played PC games like Quake and many other which featured teleporters, Lightsabers, Jetpacks and many more, What if in forthcoming years not in a year or two, We see them in our real lives.

What if Quantum Teleporter goes a reality and people can travel via it in a matter of seconds. I can’t predict very well ‘how will it cost’, but what if it becomes a routine of our lives as brushing out teeth. Phew This will be the thing………………Save to Time, Save your Money!

Jetpacks may have been a reality but a fully functional and a commercial version of it is still not available, A fully operational and personal Jetpack so that I can travel any where at any time without long waiting for buses will surely change our lives, if goes commercial.

The Military Exoskeleton is what we talk about more these days as US Army in already developing a combat variant, From Avatar to Gears of War, we have seen how Military Exoskeleton can punch through the walls that makes the player no less than a superhuman…Just wait and Watch terrorists….Now you’re gone.

Holographic Displays: This surely is the future of communication, Imagine talking with your beloved ones face to face from Delhi to Manchester, not with a webcam but with the help of Holographic Interference Patterns which generates a 3D image of your friend that it seems like he is standing just in front of you.

A Faster And Smarter Windows Experience


– Use Keyboard Remapper:  Remap your Keyboard as your convenience, You can download the KEYBOARD REMAPPER is one of its type.

– Set Your Default Search Engine: Change your search engine which you like the most e.g I like BING so my default Search Engine is Bing. Why open “http://www.bing.com” and then search for what we were looking for, when the modern browsers have the search boxes write their in your Address bar.

– Turn on Windows Indexing: Improve your windows search by enabling the Windows Indexing Option and adding more locations to index.

– Rename Your Files more faster: Press F2 to rename your first file and then press TAB, now you got to rename your next file without selecting your file and then pressing F2 afterwards.

-Get Rid of Frustration Selecting Multiple Items: Use Windows “Use Check Boxes to Select Items ” feature to select your files faster, as some of if may have experienced selecting your files by holding down CTRL and then accidently oh..oh…

Hold Down the SHIFT key and Right Click to open the shortcut menu and go to Send To, You will come up with many more options.

– Use Jump Lists to jump to recently worked documents by write clicking the ICON in the taskbar.

– You can use your favorite Aero Snap feature via your keyboard, Try Out Windows+Left, Windows+Right, Windows+Down and Windows+Up.

The Diamond of Software Industry


It’s been 25 years since Microsoft launched Windows 1.0 in 1985 having graphical front end but people at that time laughed at it as it was out of date, No one predicted that 25 years later Microsoft’s Windows will dominate the PC world market and that too with almost 90% PCs running on Windows Operating System.

“We laughed when Microsoft representatives visited us to demonstrate Windows 1.0. That was just pathetic and naïve. We just knew that they were never going to accomplish anything” – NATHANIEL BORENSTEIN

Its about 25 years now, and more than 90% of The PCs run Microsoft Windows Operating System, As we all know Microsoft’s latest release Windows 7 has affected the share of Other OSs in PC market becoming the fastest selling OS ever built on the planet with more than 240 million licenses sold in the very first year. Windows XP which was released a decade ago is still the most widely used OS.

“Microsoft should have called Windows 3.0 the ‘Windows 1.0’. Windows 3.0 (released in 1990) was the first Microsoft platform to take over all of the machine and be an OS.” – CHRIS HEWITT

Windows Offered The ability to interact with computers in very different way. I remember buying a DOS computer with my family, I was excited and telling them about what they can do with the PC, and then we turned it on and it came with a flashing A Prompt. It’s so intimidating to start off at a command prompt, with only a blank screen and a blinking cursor with an A, and people have no idea what to do now?.They think “I guess we turn it off now.” ….But with windows you can click over here and you’re in the program. WINDOWS WAS A REVOLUTIONARY CHANGE IN TERMS OF USER EXPERIENCE AND ACCESSIBILITY IT BROUGHT TO MANY MORE PEOPLE.– PAUL BRYAN

* I the 90 days leading to its first anniversary, 8.35 windows 7 license were being sold per second.

* 3.8 % of Windows 7 users run Custom or Downloaded Themes.

* 1.5 million program run on windows 7.

* 5,00,000 devices have been connected to machines running windows 7.

* Windows 7 Start menu gets opened more than 14.1 million times in a single month.

* AERO Snap is used almost 151 million times every single month.

* AERO Shake is being shaken 20.6 million times in a single month.

* 12,643 unique applications are pinned to taskbar or Start menu every month.
