5 or 920




In couple of weeks, the two gigantic mobile companies came with two of their pawns into the 'smart' game. Apple launched most awaited iPhone 5 to increase it's market share and gain an edge over the nearby competitors like Samsung and Nokia. And Nokia revealed the smartest phone ever Lumia 920(and 820) to sustain in the smart marketing.

When Apple announces it's next phone in CES 2012 in January of this year, everybody startsed thinking about that. What consumers always think about WoW features. This time Apple easily missed that, except the fact that they have reduced weight by some x%, and increased the dimensions by some x%. The innovative implementations are almost none in iPhone5. While iPhone 4s came with siri, the most innovative at that time,which is a voice assistant.

Now Lumia 920 seems to be the smartest phone ever in the world. Nokia had failed to gain the market margin after Google's Android came into the market. While Nokia staying on the boring Symbion OS. And finally Nokia opened it's mind and accepted partnership with Microsoft and unleashed first windows mobile phone Lumia. And it has unique mobile operating system, unique GUI. And Nokia keep on working on the partnership with Microsoft and now it released with Windows flagship OS(windows phone 8). Ihone has unique features like, the most advanced mobile os iOS6. And Lumia has Windows phone 8, so literally the two gaints of the PC world are competing here with their mobile versions.

I've seen the keynotes of both the smartphones and I thought Nokia Lumia 920 has slight edge over iPhone 5. Because, the innovative features introduced by Nokia are truly amazing. City lenses is one of the feature, which is an upgrade to Nokia Maps that will show the labels (restaurant names) when you switch on your camera and zoom at any building. And 360 degree panaroma is another feature. And it came with Nokia pureview hd+ which is too good. And certainly they are replacement to SLRs. And Wireless charging, this was phenomenal. And Lumia got NFC(near field commuication) which iphone doesn't have and most of the apple wishers expected to have in the latest phone. And iphone 5 has upgraded their maps by including flyover( for 3d building), increased greaphics, improved siri and increase in screen size to 4in(which is smaller than 4.5 in lumia 920 screen).

MeeBhoomi - A good initiative from AP Govt.

We bring nothing when we come to this world and we take nothing when we died. But still, what we have in the life will be valuable at least for the time we live. Wait, why I'm saying this now, because most of our valuable time is well spent on the land issues. And there is so many things need to happen to know the present owner of the land. Recently AP (Andhra Pradesh) government announces a portal for public to access all the land details.

Who we are? And what we are doing here on the Earth?

Ever wonder who we are? and what exactly we are doing on this Earth, the lonely planet revolving around this furious Sun along with a bunch of bros (I mean planets). Wait, this Earth? Do we have more than one Earth? Who knows, in this humongous vast space, can't we find another Earth? The probability is surely greater than Zero. Humans are evolving like anything. We invented the fire, the wheel and what not? We make our lives easier day by day. Sometimes, I feel we are also like ants.  Ants? Yes, Ants. Most of the time, many of us will not observe their movement. Perhaps we are also like ants or any creature and we are being ignored/watched by some of the invisible entities of outer space. Sometimes, I feel we are machines embedded with intelligence. Just like the robots embodied with Artificial Intelligence (AI), we are also programmed and delivered to Earth. The programmed chip may be called as DNA. A question comes in my mind, how come our children ...

Google's Stadia, the GAME changer!

Having a high-end computer or any one of the boxes (Xbox, PlayStation) is not necessary to play high end games in the near future. Recently Google announced a new product from its armory related to gaming at GDC2019, called Stadia . Stadia offers to stream the game in the web browser itself. The game will be loaded and run on the server side, only the video will be played on your computer/mobile. This can be called as Cloud Gaming or Game as a Service (GaaS). All we need is a decent internet connection and probably a subscription for Stadia. No need for any boxes. The traditional premium boxes will be second thought. Since they are expensive for a casual gamer, Stadia will be the best option to experience big games. High tech spec GPUs, high speed processors and all the expensive hardware part will be saved. Hmm, it sounds awesome!! This is another master plan by Google to rule the digital world. Already Google and it's echo system is way more penetrated...
