Microsoft Office to be Free Soon

Microsoft Office to be Free Soon

Microsoft is also going to be ‘Ad-Supported’ like google!

Microsoft will release free Office 14 in 2010. As exchange, the free version will be ad-supported. According to the news here,
http://bionicoder.wordpress.com/2009/03/22/ad-supported-microsoft-office-may-be-available/

This was announced by Microsoft at the Morgan Stanley Technology conference on March 3rd.

Many people may not like this but it is a good news for people who don’t want to pay or can’t afford it. Off course, its heaps better than the competitor Open Office. A free version will also be a step towards a piracy free PC.

Working in a Software Company

Working in a Software Company

There is life outside projects….your life and your family. Love your work but not your project or the company. Many developers after a certain amount of time become possessive about the project and the company. Do a professional job but don’t end up marrying the project or the company. Try to come on time and go on time. So that you do not get saturated and work on the project for a longer time and effectively. Don’t become a zombie - nobody said on his death bed that he would have liked to spend more time in the office.

Try to freeze your requirements before the start of the project. In practical scenarios it is very difficult to control the end customer. But if you can at least control the changes that will make the project more comfortable. (But if you can at least control the changes it will help you manage the project comfortably).
The best way to control changes is by taking official sign offs from the end Customer. As the saying goes, building quality software and skating on ice are both easy to do provided requirements are frozen.

Do not try to be a hero in the project. Because heroes also have to go through all the hardships. So believe in distributing the load equally which is not only good for the project but also for you in the long run. Do not try to be an octopus - unfortunately you were born with only two hands.

Every project has parasite developers. In short every project has developers who constantly take help from others thus bringing down their productivity. Yes it is possible that they are your friends, but think for a moment - what’s smarter, giving a person one fish everyday from your catch or teaching him how to fish. Step in to help others when they are stuck but you should know when to step out as well. There’s a thin line between helping somebody cross a tough hurdle and
carrying him on your shoulders - always be aware of this.

If you are a developer avoid doing their work from start to finish. Yes, give them hints but do not do complete coding for them.If you are a project manager you should analyze such kind of developers and take effective action at the very beginning which may even mean removing the resource from the project. Remember, your team is only as strong as its weakest link.

Do not make projects your learning ground. Customer’s pay heavily for making software so do not make it a learning ground. In many projects developers try to implement new technologies in mid of the project just by hearing jargons.

Test, Test and Test. That’s the key to success for any software project.

Do not hide your defects. Developers are the best guys who know where the code will crash. Do not hide it, analyze and fix it. Do not cheat and leave the same till it goes to the end client. Avoid ego issues during the project. Many times in a project developers and managers get stuck up with ego issues. Sometimes stepping back makes the project move further Tackle bigger problems of the project first. The best way to complete any project is to start those screens which are used by the customer more often. For instance every project has non-frequent masters code them later and start the transaction screens first. Many time developers end up doing nitty gritty work and forget the bigger part of the project.

Do not talk about stars. Every project starts with talking about stars but later ends up somewhere else. Developers talk about concepts of OOP, full database normalization, design patterns etc etc. These fundamentals are important but it should end up with only jargons. Some times practical deadlines make it impossible to implement these features. Keep yourself flexible and compromise with quality when you have deadlines…..believe me it’s not a sin if a customer is giving you unreasonable deadlines.

Maintaining a right project hierarchy is very important i.e. the A model. In a model you have one senior person at the top, project manager, team leader, senior developers and then juniors. The right proportion of people from each grade is important. On any level if you have too much concentration you will have ego issue and promotion issues. Do not treat your project people as a resource. Project managers have this jargon of thinking of every one as a resource. That’s bookish thinking; any one working in a project is finally a human being with emotions. The moment you consider them as a resource they will also consider you as a resource. Moreover the word resource reminds you of water resources, mineral resources, oil & natural gas resources, etc which become empty some day - you get the point. In your own interests wipe off the word from your vocabulary.

Make yourself visible. If you think you have done something good show it, advertise it, make it visible. It will help you during your assessment.
Avoid getting into project politics. Peace of mind is the most important thing. Getting into egos and politics will only complicate things.

If you are working in a maintenance project upgrade yourself time to time. Change is the only constant in life - this is painfully true in the software industry more than anywhere else.

In case you are maintaining some other developers’ code do not criticize the code. Who knows in what circumstances the project was made .If you are a project manager in the project do not make it a compulsory rule that you will never touch coding. Remember juniors respect their seniors only if they sit with them for development and understand their difficulties. This is a time tested rule - people only respect leaders who lead from the front rather than issue orders from the rear - don’t be a preacher, let your actions do the talking.

If any resource is working on a project for more than a year his performance comes down. Prepare a proper KT plan and bring in new resources and roll the old resources off for some better prospects. Avoid unnecessary meetings.

Credit Cards

Credit Cards

It is estimated that currently there are 25 million credit cards in India 40% of which are actively used. It is further estimated that consumers in India spend an average of around Rs 4000 per month on their credit cards. But nowadays India also is in the grip of financial crisis and overall default rates of the credit cards have risen by almost 2% in the past year to 10 -12% of the turn over.



The SBI creditcards, the nation's second largest card issuer is likely to report a loss for the consecutive year as defaults on credit cards payments have mounted. The SBI Cards, which is owned by the State Bank of India and the US- based GE Money in the 60:40 ratio, reported a loss of Rs 600 million on total income of 4400 million in the six months ended September 30,2008.The card issuer had suffered a loss of Rs 1500 million in 2007-2008 against a net profit of Rs 600 million in 2006-2007.



A senior official of the SBI CreditCards, who did not want to be identified, said, "We have consciously slowed down sourcing customers by more than 50 percent from a peak of one hundred thousand cards a month last year to 20,000 to 30,000 a month now to ensure a good portfolio. It's a difficult market." He said credit checks have increased while the minimum salary criterion for issue of cards has been revised to Rs 200,000 to Rs 240,000 per year from last year's Rs 144,000.

An official of the Credit Cards section of the ICICI Bank said, " In 2007-2008 the credit cards business grew by 20 to 25 per cent. We had done 1.5 million cards in 2007 -2008 which has been reduced by 60 percent in the first 10 months of 2008-2009. The credit losses have increased by more than 1percentage point of the spread between lending rates and cost.

Because of increase in the default rate of credit card payments, many banks are invading the savings accounts of customers not paying their bills. Several banks that issue credit cards have agreements with customers giving them the right to tap into their savings accounts with them to set off overdue credit card debt. But the right was seldom exercised in the past, with banks preferring to negotiate with customers and giving them extra time to pay.

In the new scenario it is necessary for everybody to be extra careful about repayment of loans particularly the credit card loans. Some precautions are necessary in this regard

1. If you have no intention of revolving on your card then ensure that you pay the entire amount outstanding on your card well before the due date so that the credit in your account happens in time.
2. Of all your debts, always repay your card outstanding first as it is the most costly form of debt.
3. If you have outstanding on multiple cards, repay the one with the maximum interest first.
4. Explore if you can repay your card debts by taking an alternative form of finance such as a secured or unsecured personal loan.
5. You can also ease out the repayment of your credit card debt by converting the dues on your credit card into equated monthly installments (EMIs), if your bank has this facility and you are eligible for it.
6. Ensure that you build a good track record of timely repayments so that you have a good credit rating with credit bureaus.
7. Make your financial health assessment at regular intervals, at least once a year.
8. The credit card is a convenience tool primarily and a debt management tool for emergencies. So use it only for emergencies.
9. Do not revolve credit on your credit card for long periods, as this is likely to invite financial crisis.
10. If you face difficulties with your card repayments, check with your bank for alternative ways of managing your debt.

BollyWood Saif Bebo Shahid faceoff At Kareem Morani's B'day Bash

The Bollywood biggies poured in to the biggest party of recent times - Kareem Morani's birthday bash! The last birthday so big was probably Katrina Kaif's 24th birthday. And we all know why! That reminds us, at times it's not so nice to have too many big Bolly stars under the same roof. For instance, this one had Saif-Bebo and Shahid! Thankfully, there were no reported fights. SRK, wife Gauri, Arjun Rampal, Farhan Akhtar and many others were there too! Take a look!

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor walk in to the birthday party looking not too happy. Perhaps it was because a certain Shahid present at the party too?

Shahid however did not look all that crestfallen. He looked in fact quite pleased with himself

Shah Rukh Khan came despite having to wear that shoulder strap along with wifey dearest, Gauri

And before we forget, this is birthday boy Kareem Morani with wife

Moving on...when SRK and Gauri were there, Karan had to follow right?

SEO How To Increase Your Backlinks

How To Increase Your Back links

Getting backlinks to your site is not as hard as you may think. A common misconception is that ranking in the top 10 is free. This may be true for uncompetitive terms but certainly not for bigger terms. You will need to spend some money on directory listings etc. This is all minimal when considering the return you will get if you have done your homework correctly.

Step 1: Web Directories

Get your site listed in as many web directories as possible. Web directories are stable link partners as you typically pay them a one time fee to list your site. Getting listed in web dirtectories is also going to increase your PR score. This is important as it makes doing link exchanges with other webmasters a lot easier. Some webmasters will only exchange links with sites that have a PR4 or more score. You can explain all you want that PR is not the only criteria they should be looking at, but this often falls on deaf ears.

I have included a Web Directory Booster List to get you started. They all differ in price and PR so set a monthly directory budget, and then get your site listed. Here is a summary of the advantages:

1. Increase your sites PR score
2. Get quality long term listings
3. Listing are in relevant categories to your site
4. Listings include descriptive surrounding text
5. Directories deliver additional traffic

Remember when getting links to your site to try include the correct anchor text (link text). For example if you have a site about dogs and you wish to rank in the search engines for the term "dog breeding", your link should include "dog breeding". ie. Ricky Bobby's Dog Breeding

I have listed several more factors below that you should consider when building links. For more ideas on link building I recommend reading Aaron Walls SEO Book. I could spend hours writing about this topic and would only match what he has already written, no need to reinvent the wheel :-)

• Trade links with sites related to yours
• Creat quality content that webmasters in your niche would be interested in linking to
• Offer valuable free advice or services that would in turn generate links
• Include a link to your site in your signature on any blogs or forums you participate in
• Issue press releases with links to your site (search Google for "press release service")
• Try to get links to your sites inner pages

SEO How Content Can Improve Traffic

How Content Can Improve Traffic

Here's what search engines know about your sites content:

• How many pages you have
• When you last updated your site
• How often you update your site
• The uniqueness of your content

These factors are all important when determining the quality of a site. It's really very simple. A site that delivers fresh, quality content on a regular basis is going to be of more value to it's visitors than one that doesn't. Search engines try to index as much content as possible, so the more pages you have in their index, the better your chances are of receiving additional traffic.

Content Donts

1. Don't use duplicate content to try trick the search engines, you will get caught
2. Don't "scrape" content off other sites to use on your own, you will get caught
3. Don't use content that has been automatically generated by software, you will get caught
4. Don't use hidden text on your page to increase your keywords, you will get caught

Adding quality content for your visitors will also result in more sites linking to yours. These links are great as they are "natural" links. This basically means that you have not paid for these links but earned them.

Ideas For Adding Content:

• Write your own content
• Add RSS feeds to your site
• Add product, service or book reviews
• Discuss/Review the latest news in your industry

SEO How To Get a Top 10 Ranking

How To Get a Top 10 Ranking

Understanding what the top 10 sites have done to obtain their rankings is critical. Not knowing this information is like running a business with your eyes closed!

Sites are judged on two key elements, links and content. You need to find out how many links each site has and how many pages each site has. You can do this manually or by using the software application under the "Exclusive Tools" tab above.

Automatically: (Recommended)

Save yourself some time and simply enter any keyword or search phrase into the software I have developed. The software will analyse the top 10 sites on Google, and neatly display the results for pages and links. Click here to see the software in action.

Manually:

To find the total number of links pointing to a site visit Yahoo and type in the query below. I recommend Yahoo as Google doesn't display all the results.

link:http://www.anysite.com

To find the total number of pages visit Google and enter the following query.

site:http://www.anysite.com

What To Do Next?

Once you have this information you need to decide whether or not you can compete with them and over what period of time.

For example:

If a site has 120 links and 200 pages you may wish to add 10 new links per month, and 15 or so pages. Competing at this rate would take you a little over a year to achieve a top 10 ranking. I personally don't recommend adding more than 50 links per month, but feel free to add as many pages as needed. Obviously all pages must have value to a visitor but even 1 a day gets you over 350 per year - more than enough in most cases!

Getting links may sound like a daunting task too but it really isn't. Get more information by reading the "How To Increase Traffic With Links" article.

See, doing research is pretty simple, search engine optimization is not as scary as some "gurus" would have you believe. Remember that if you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!

BollyWood Aamir Khan

Aamir Khan & Wife Kiran Rao Caught! Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao were caught at an event in the iconic Taj Mahal hotel in Mumbai, one of the first since the horrific 26/11 attacks. The couple were attending a dinner organised by watchmakers Rolex to mark the very first performance by the Vienna Philharmonic in India. The evening also had world-renowned orchestra conductor Zubin Mehta and pianist Lang Lang performing for the audience, which composed of the cream from Mumbai`s elite social circuit. Aamir and Kiran spent their time interacting with everyone and yes, the actor also had a stream of autograph hunters to satisfy. Dressed in jeans and a dinner jacket the actor looked at ease during the dinner that followed the event.

Aamir Khan & Shahrukh Khan

I don't think SRK ever was 'King Khan': Aamir Khan

Keeping up his swipes at superstar Shah Rukh Khan and the No.1 slot in Bollywood, Aamir Khan, riding on the super success of his revenge drama Ghajini, has said he never thought Shah Rukh was ever on the top pedestal at all.

He also said Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire failed to "touch" him.

Aamir, during CNN's special edition of Talk Asia, was asked how he feels about being termed the new 'King Khan' after the success of Ghajini. He replied: "I had absolutely no intention of kicking Shah Rukh off his pedestal. Though I have to say, I don't think he ever was on it."

Elaborating, Aamir said: "In my opinion, the actor who I really look up to is Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. He is someone whose work I really like, a fantastic actor and the kind of stardom Mr. Bachchan has seen, none of us can ever hope to see."

The 44-year-old actor, whose latest work, the Hindi remake of Tamil film Ghajini, was a success at the box office, says he feels satisfied with his films only if they turn out to be as they are intended.

"You can never really tell until you see a film with the audience. How it is going to play with the audience. For me, what is important is that when I see the film once it is ready, has it turned out the way we wanted it to? If we have done that, then that makes me feel happy," he said.

Aamir, whose own directorial debut film Taare Zameen Par, failed to get nominated in the foreign film category at the 81st Annual Academy Awards this year, says that Slumdog Millionaire failed to "touch" him.

"I thought the movie was well intended. It was a very sincere attempt, but it didn't touch me personally, and I suspect it because I'm not used to watching Indians speak English, all these slum kids talking in English... it's strange," said Aamir.

The World Wide Web Is 20 Years Old Today

Sir Tim Berners-Lee: The man who invented the world wide web.

It's 20 years since Sir Tim Berners-Lee published a proposal that has revolutionised the way we live. And it's just the start.

In March 1989, Tim Berners-Lee, then a scientist at CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, wrote a paper detailing the means by which the particle physics research community could easily share and search electronic documents.

At the time, the “internet” was used almost exclusively by defence organisations and academic institutions, and communication was entirely text-based, relying on basic newsgroups and remote Telnet chat sessions to send messages between users. Sir Tim realised that the experience needed to be richer than that if the internet was to be truly useful.

His paper, entitled Information Management: A Proposal, extolled the virtues of a simplified form of Standard Generalised Markup Language, and the proposal is now considered to be the foundations upon which the world wide web was built.

Sir Tim’s paper led to the creation of HTML – Hypertext Markup Language – a coding language used to describe how to present text and images in an electronic format. When combined with a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) and HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol), a framework was built that would enable users to access electronic documents in a standard way.

Crucially, Sir Tim found a way to build links into documents themselves, so that they could be connected together, rather than existing as separate and distinct pieces of data.
Two decades on, the impact of Sir Tim’s work is clear to see.

The web has revolutionised the way we live, work and communicate. And now the internet is on the brink of a second transformation, as technology experts search for new ways to make the web more “intelligent”.

The so-called “semantic web” will be a reality within the next 10 years, according to the National Computing Centre, enabling people to make natural language searches and receive accurate, nuanced responses, rather than simply a list of websites where they might be able to find the answer to a question or request, as is currently the case.

“It is essentially the web as a system of intelligent, connected devices, rather than the web as point-to-point links,” said Ted Schadler, an analyst with Forrester Research.

Several early semantic web-style services already exist, such as Twine and Freebase, and a British-born physicist is planning to launch his natural search engine, Wolfram Alpha, next month.

Sir Tim believes the web is still in its infancy, and that in future, the internet will put “all the data in the world” within the reach of every user.
“What’s exciting is that people are building new social systems, new systems of review, new systems of governance.

“My hope is that those will produce new ways of working together effectively and fairly which we can use globally to manage ourselves as a planet.”
