Bishnupriya Manipuri Online

September 11 -- Google announced Google Instant. It is a new search enhancement that shows results as you type. Feross Aboukhadijeh decided to build YouTube Instant (going a step further to get the same experience that of Google Instant in YouTube) in less than an hour. What started out as a bet with his roommate, YouTube Instant has become ultra-hit. And Feross Aboukhadijeh has become within a night a web celebrity. YouTube CEO offered him a job offer in Twitter. A true fairy-tale story! Feross Aboukhadijeh wrote in his site I awoke Friday morning to an inbox full of people congratulating me on YouTube Instant, sending me links to press coverage, and sharing it by the thousands on Twitter and Facebook. The Washington Post called to do an interview, Venture Beat put my picture on their front page, and Mashable wrote a front page story …twice. YouTube Instant also made it to the All Things Digital front page and the Hacker News home page three times. YouTube CEO Chad Hurley even ...

By RK Rishikesh Sinha, New Delhi (The Article published in the  Assam Tribune on September 4, 2010) The Internet has made the world flat. Now anyone connected to the Internet can peep into any city and get a visual glimpse of its infrastructure and facilities. Running Google Maps through the Guwahati city gives an interesting insight how various educational institutes and business enterprises are taking advantage of the World Wide Web. Hovering above the Guwahati city, thanks to Google’s satellite imagery, where the city gives a panoramic view of its natural beauty, it also throws up business establishments which have embraced the Internet. For any city, its presence in the Internet speaks a lot. It is found that the city-based educational institutes are the one which has adopted the Internet tool the most, followed by the hotel industry. Unfortunately, the presence of educational institutes and hotels in the Internet doesn’t paint a rosy picture of the whole city. There are in...

By RK Rishikesh Sinha, New Delhi Email is loosing its sheen in the plethora of latest communication and collaborative tools that are relentlessly added in the World Wide Web to simplify our communication needs. One such tool which has the potential of making electronic communication (Email) obsolete and a thing-of-the-past is the latest tool from the kitty of Google -- Google Wave (it was launched on May 18, 2010 for the public). If you have not given a try yet on Google Wave, I suggest – explore the tool, now! I have been using this tool since two months when its usage was given with a request. It is remarkable! It is a completely next generation new communication and collaborative tool. However it is still in Google Lab, so at any given time it can be dropped or added to the list of Google products. The tool has been used here in the BishnupriyaManipuri Online. See in the right panel “Wave Me”. Or Click here . You have entered into a private yet public conversation – control...

By RK Rishikesh Sinha, New Delhi The launch of Google’s Buzz in the first week of February had an earth-shaking impact on the Internet landscape. I grouped with those million of users who were against it, initially due to the privacy concern. My immediate concern was that all the people in my contact list in Gmail were coming to know multiple web profiles I am having. It is something – my previous editor who is not related to bishnupriyamanipuri.com is coming to know all my multiple web [Picasa, You Tube, Google Reader, twitter, Flickr..] services owned by me. It was complete noise, communication bombardment, criss-cross messaging upon me. But the crisis came as a blessing in disguise. I had to tweak many things; and the tweaking process landed me to a serendipitous discovery: There were readers in Facebook, the world’s largest social network, who liked bishnupriyamanipuri.com. I was able to show and market the Facebook users the content created here. You can see from the above f...

And finally, in the Most Watched You Tube videos, comes the Evian Rollers Babies with 27 + million views. About the video, it was reported that after it got hit in the You Tube, the sale of the product went down.

News Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) incorporating IT products should always go for open architecture-based products and not for proprietary one, said Ravi Bharadwaj, General Manager, SMB, Dell India. In addition, the MSME units should also consider energy and power factor while taking a decision on the adoption of Information Technology in their workplace, he said while speaking in a conference on 'How to Use IT Smartly: To Cut Costs and Win Markets' in New Delhi on September 4, 2009. Explaining the future of cloud computing in the IT sector the world over, he said that by 2010, 80 per cent of the Fortune 1000 companies would switch over to the new concept “cloud”. Now when the one-third of the SMEs are in the Asia-Pacific region and which is expected to grow to 500 million units by 2015, Ravi Bharadwaj said that the MSMEs shouldn’t go by the prevailing myths that IT is complex and expensive, rather it should embrace it as a “basic level of enabler”. Today is Thank...

E-WORLD By RK Rishikesh Sinha, New Delhi Among the many sweet reasons for which Delhi is wooed the world over, the biggest is the array of food delicacies and myriad cuisines that it pans out for food freaks. Whether it is hot sumptuous aalu tikki, lacchedar paratha, butter chicken , or the frosty lassi , to name a few - the city has more to offer than perhaps any other city of the country. Born, brought up and living in Nizamuddin East, a historical residential colony by all standards and a Mecca for Mughlai food-lovers, for Ravi V. Chhabra, it came very natural to delve into the food and beverages sector. He worked for India’s first Alcobev magazine called Ambrosia in 2001 and did many path-breaking stories on Indian government’s vexed excise policy, beer companies and about the alcohol trade. In 2005, he decided to occupy a space in the cloud with the launching of www.fnbworld.com . Ravi V. Chhabra, who has worked with many international national publications as a full-time journa...

E- World By Tridiv Sinha, New Delhi There used to be days when people used one messenger to chat with strangers, friends and family online. Online chatting became one of the most popular Internet activities for young and old alike, especially youngsters trying to make online friends instead of social friends. The business of chatting has evolved since then. We have many messengers; call it the chatting software, having features of their own. One can send free text messages to any cell phone; enjoy music while chatting with inbuilt radio stations and send files to friends. The existing service providers are so popular that new ones have little or no share of the pie. But now we have chatting software which supports almost all the popular messenger services at the same time. Digsby.com is one such software to connect to multiple chatting services at the same time. Using Digsby, one can use 7 Instant Message services at the same time, get updates on 4-social networking sites and 5 email ...

E-World By RK Rishikesh Sinha Google Picasa If you are among those who have a penchant for photography, personal or professional, than definitely you are facing one problem - management of the photographs shoot at different intervals of time and occasion. You don’t find photographs in the array of folders you have created. You scratch to find out the exact photographs that you intend to see.

By RK Rishikesh Sinha, New Delhi Three search engines – Google, Yahoo! and MSN – rule the roost in the domain of online “search”. Google’s dominance, which accounts for more than 60 per cent, makes it monotheism for million of online users who believe that there is only one search engine called “Google”. But the Google Gorilla is facing new danger, with the launch of Microsoft’s new search engine: bing.com . Microsoft move to have a space for itself in the search engine world came after its failed attempt to buy Yahoo! Is Google worried? Will Microsoft be able to show its offline power in online? – are some of the questions rounding up in the web world. Bing.com is not the first search engine pitching in the “search” canvass. Before that many attempts had been made. Their launch was hyped to the hilt, but in due course of time these search engines failed to show their sheen, and were not able to meet at par the Google experience. One is Cuil (pronounced as Cool), developed by former em...

The blog has acquired the URL http://www.bishnupriyamanipuri.com/ yesterday exactly at 8.30 pm. Now onwards, readers can directly type in the browser address bar “bishnupriyamanipuri.com” and visit here. However, special care has been taken to those who will be visiting the earlier “http://bishnupriyamanipuri.blogspot.com/” web domain. They will be seeing the same.

By RK Rishikesh Sinha, New Delhi For millions of online publishers who are using the services of the web-based feed distributor FeedBurner, for them the February month had been tough and full of anxiety. They had to transfer their website’s / blog’s feed from FeedBurner to Google. Importance of FeedBurner could be gauged from the fact that the blog is using the services of FeedBurner to distribute content feeds to its subscribers. The email alert they are receiving in their inbox it is through it. The management of the subscribers is being done using FeedBurner. With so much in stake, remaining away from Feedburner that is for a whole month was like living with out oxygen. Not only one go blank with the subscriber list but at the same time statistics that the blog generates. Sleepless night had been spent by millions of FeedBurner’s users; they endured hard at this crisis time! The change of platform brings with it litany of other changes. One had to master the transition and at the sa...
