Rip MegaSites


My views is clearly on that goes in with the fun moments any person that has gotten in contact with this service must have. Its widely clear that no one should b happy for this and and that advocacy against things like this will never end.
I will spend my time with a close eye on the matter and also enjoy the wide range of alternatives that are still out there which might and up in the same predicament

My Tech Predictions

2012 The Year 2012 no doubt was a very successful Tech year but while others ponder into the mode of reflections on 2011. We do this every time a new year set in… we predict another glorious Tech Year with amazing Psychic connections from bloggers who are themselves not sure at most of the predictions but who am i to judge because i too make such predictions.

So i spent the last few days of the year reading what other’s like Mashable, SiliconCaribe and even GeekWindow had to predict would happen in 2012.What i found amusing was the majority of amazing predictions that were presented. I would gladly share my ideas on them and others i hold right here on my blog based on my experience as a Tech Blogger.

Here goes my very long list:

  • Google Launching a Tablet Under $300

I read over at SiliconCaribe and one has got to give the dollar as this will definitely be reality seen as since India has the worlds cheapest tablet that amazingly runs on Google's Open Source Android OS which could be a consulting inspiration for an affordable tablet. The fact also that Our world economy might take a continuing recession or worse another downturn then this price might seek at boasting Androids Popularity.  Another Fact that can hold this prediction true is the underlying event of Google's Acquisition of Motorola Mobility which is the worlds top Mobile Phone and Tablet maker.

  • Google’s Continuous Expansion/Improvement of its overall platform and Amazing Acquisitions

It is logical to have this as a prediction but no one is yet to post this as a prediction as it i a must however i expect some changes to the Google overall platform that will come as likely shockers through the year.

We should all know by now that Google is known for its acquisitions of various companies and should add to these expansions/improvements of the site. one might see all users connected to the Motorola Mobility website in the future if all goes well with this deal. Don’t be surprised if you see Google Plus connected to websites as the successor for Google friends connect and also don’t be surprised for the surprising additions that might be added to Google Plus. On such addition maybe a chat bar which is connected to Gmails chat which may eventual mean more Google plus users.

One can also see the removal of Google's age 18 limit of which i was affected by and which is unprecedented and holds a actor to why Google plus is yet to be widely used like Google. Google seeks to amaze us even more in 2012.

 

  • HP WebOS being sold or scraped

One would hold to the act that technically this has happened in HP shedding its division in charge of manufacturing devices using the OS however it is yet to see if the will sell it. many suspect Amazon To be the purchaser but it is yet to be seen what the would do with the platform since the  introduction of the Kindle Fire and Slate browser which runs on Android. Should they purchase WebOS would they be willing to commit to 2 OS’s therefore having a slate browser on the WebOS… hmmm, its yet to be seen if any of this will happen and therefore should be seen in 2012 if all goes well.

  • Facebook Passing  Billion and Facebook Messenger

Another  prediction read over at SiliconCaribe which i can say is very true bad in the facts stated on the story which sources Facebooks current usership at 800 million which further means that Facebooks penetration in places like the largely populated Asia and Africa will be necessary. It can be pinned on 2011 for the launch of Facebook Messenger beta due someone distributing it but The Launch of a Facebook Messenger will be seen as a way of pushing Facebooks Usership to a billion and also encouraging wide usage.

  • Yahoo Buy WebOs, Sold off piece by piece, redefined or/and Crash

Yes i know this one is bizarre but i see any of these predictions happening very soon if not in the far.

I know Yahoo is not in the sort of situation where it would want to go buy WebOs but look at it this way. After a restructures of Yahoo the Purchase of WebOS can be credited with being yahoo’s hit at the competitors. Then again i possibly could have gone too far with this prediction but we will see.

We can already see evidence of this happening based on reports but my belief is that the sale of Yahoo’s assets will have a daring result on it. The continuous redefining of on of the worlds oldest digital entities to the point where it doesn't know its identity will result in a crash/bankruptcy that will make headlines if not in 2012 further  a in the future depending on how the sales and restructuring are made.

 

  • Caribbean Startups Strike At Success

Surely this won’t be the year Yahja Confirms its startup status but i get the Feeling some Caribbean startup[s] will be taking this year seriously and having taken 2011 serious by releasing a number of platforms, apps among others. My bones tell me there will be many world class products, apps and websites dreamed for 2012. The Hope also comes with this prediction that Developers, designers, bloggers, investors and others will make it their best to attend Caribbean Beta and Kingston Beta Events for 2012 as Caribbean Techies continue to Network.

 

All things said and done i am not God or an anointed prophet but these will come out somehow and might a well be added close to my new years resolution since i will be following up on these events via GeekWindow and YJBeat.

Being a blogger

Citizen Journalism in Mumbai Terrorist Attacks...
Image by Gauravonomics via Flickr
Its been a long time since i blogged via my blog here on blogspot but i hope i can fixed that issue by making scheduled post that make the most of my current and future ideas.
So the questions is how to take in the ideology of being a blogger since Its relatively been a few years... or should i say 2 years since i have started blog and its hard to believe where i am today.
All the hard work of research seems to be fun finding all that information and outputting it into a post that a reader might read or writing a controversial review. my reason for blogging is further quite clear in that  get a sense of pride when i seen the finished piece even in cases where i suspect it might not even get read. Thought if it ain't read today it must be read in the future.
The review experience might not be worked up yet but i a sure you as a blogger i will reach there. I even go as far as considering myself a citizen journalist.
I still have a long way to go in the field of blogging. Its literally fun working with GeekWindow Editors and Finding the Next Piece at Yahja Blog and I will continue doing it.

My next post might be on politics so keep updated by subscribing to my blog.
hope i will continue blogging and don't forget to leave your comments.

CXCs Online System

Self modified from https://www.cia.gov/cia/pub...Image via Wikipedia
Internet Explorer Mobile LogoImage via Wikipedia
OK! so i am among a large group of graduates who this week receive a preliminary result sheet of their results via CXCs Online Result/Registration System.
i am proud of the results received among the factors that a Caribbean organization dedicated to education certification has done so well at their job but the questions i ask in this post need to be address.

I will take them each at a time
What Hosting service does the CXC website use?
it is clear that the website is not properly enhanced so as to give it the  bandwidth needed for high traffic. the bandwidth need is sopossed to be in the region of a google or yahoo as the organization serves a wide community.
Does the CXC plan on changing online their system in the future?
it is clear that the current system is terrible as i had to explain to a lot of people that it only works in internet explorer. Now tell me which organization caters to one browser. this is the greatest downfall as we all know users all hate the Internet Explorer browser and even so the young generation who are using browsers like Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Opera.
Isd there any plan to updgrade the websites bandwidth in the future?
it can only become clear from my point of understanding that in the future if the Caribbean Examination Council wishes to make its users have a great experience on thier website andonline system then they need to provide the bandwidth space for use to have that experience.

Are you suing a ASP system?
the question has been answered but let me give the solution. Yes they use and asp system. i am aware that asp provides the simplest and widespread scope needed for a platform but in a world were users are moving away from the limited standards its better to find another system that would not be limited to Internet Explorer.

Ends Note
These Questions and Solutions can be done and should be done.
I am sure i didn't cover all this issues/questions that are brought up on this matter and hope that readers with the same issue will leave them in the comment so these issues/questions can be so addressed.

summer coming along fine

Green LanternImage via WikipediaSummer is coming along fine so far in the general term of defining fine.
so far i have watched movies like Super8, Green Lantern and a couple others that might not come to mind immediately but i am sure i watched them or either they are going to be watched soon.

summer however does'nt end the thinking of your future but enhances your knowledge that nows the time for fun and the future is tomorrow right. therefore it all depends on what you choose to do.
and not to mention the Pokemon diamond on the DS emulator
question thought, what do i choose to do?
more education of course.... at least hopefully those grades will add out to be that result than heading straight and directly into the working World of bosses untold and .... il keep that comment to my self.
