Banyan Tree Infomedia Launches Q& A Portal Answerify
2011-07-19 06:47:00 Banyan Tree Infomedia, the Web and Software development firm, has launched the full-fledged version of its question and answer site ”. Answerify was in beta-test for the last eight months and now has been opened to the public. Answerify allows users to ask questions on any topic as well as answer the questions which already have been asked. When you ask a question, you have to sort it in a pre-defined category. But, one thing I observed on the site is that it has very less categories and hence most of the times you just won’t find a category to put your question under. Answerify allows users to ask or answer questions even without registration. Of course, this is not a novel feature as such, but it is still commendable. Many a times we leave a site just because it needs registration. You can log in with your Facebook account, too. This way you can cross-post your activities on Facebook. The Twitter integration is also on its away. The one thing that we liked about the p...

2011-06-21 11:30:00 Hyderabad-based LRR Technologies, an online local business, has launched a daily-deals website called DealDrums.com. DealDrums will feature deals from businesses including restaurants, gaming parlors, car wash centers, beauty salons, yoga classes, gyms, cookery, Ayurvedic spas and more.

Now business analysts can design portal stylesheets in less than 10-minutes
2010-06-24 16:02:00 I've just seen something you don't see everyday. It was a demo by one of my colleagues of the new Encanvas Template Designer. What it does is to enable a business analyst to design the user interface of a 'live' portal application or website without requiring scripting or coding skills - in a matter of minutes. I was a little skeptical of the claim so, as evidence, I asked my enthusiastic colleague to go to the website of my retail bank and replicate the stylesheet of the home page using Encanvas (so that all of the canvases published would inherit the style-sheet of my bank). I asked, 'How long would it take to reproduce the website look and feel in Encanvas?' The answer came back 'less than 10-minutes'. I had 10-minutes to kill so I said, 'Go on then, let's see it!' I saw a few flashes of Photoshop and Encanvas Web Server Managers' appearance settings page. Then, in less than 5-minutes, the replica portal space was there for me to click around in its ASP.NET por...

RCom Launches Children Stories Voice Portal Reliance Communications has launched children’s stories on its voice portal. For accessing these stories Mobile users need to dial 51234234. The charges for this portal are Rs 3/min. The portal is available in several languages like English, Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Telugu, Gujarati and Punjabi. We are not sure both on the use case and the longetivity of this product. Also at 3 rs per minute it turns out to be an expensive deal incase the story is too long. Why wouldnt kids just read a story instead or watch cartoons? Maybe we are being overtly negative but we are open to comments on how this could work.

Portal Vein Thrombosis
2009-11-27 18:24:00 Portal vein obstruction results from thrombosis (blood clot) or narrowing of the portal vein, which brings blood to the liver from the intestines. Most people have no symptoms. Fluid may accumulate in the abdomen, the spleen may enlarge, and severe bleeding may occur in the esophagus. Doppler ultrasonography can usually confirm the diagnosis. If possible, the cause is treated, and drugs may be used to prevent the clot from enlarging or to dissolve the clot. Because the portal vein is narrowed or blocked, pressure in the portal vein increases. This increased pressure (called portal hypertension) causes the spleen to enlarge (splenomegaly). It also results in dilated, twisted (varicose) veins in the esophagus (esophageal varices) and often in the stomach (portal hypertensive gastropathy). These can bleed profusely. Fluid accumulation in the abdomen (called ascites) is not common but may develop when the blockage of the portal vein is accompanied by liver congestion or damag...
