iXiGO Partners With Air Valid For User-Generated Ratings In Flight Searches
2009-10-28 12:19:00 iXiGO has announced its partnership with Air Valid to display user generated airline ratings on its International flight search results. This tie-up will help users of flight search engine to know the quality ratings of International airlines. Air Valid has an international presence with dedicated portals for many regions. It also has aggregation data for many international airlines around the world. The international portal has Indian presence at [www.air-valid.in] launched only a few months ago. Rajnish Kumar, Co-Founder & CTO added, “Our user analytics shows that passengers do not make choices solely driven by price, specially for international travel. Factors like on-time performance, comfort, seat-spacing, level of service and cleanliness vary from one airline to the other, influencing the choice of airline, specially on competitive routes where fares are similar across carriers.” Indian airline industry is witnessing influx of many foreign airline...

Mac user finds something to like about Windows

Here at my desk, I have my PC on the left and my Mac on the right, and well, if half of my desk collapsed right now (whew!

No, not because I'm ever going to use it (we're still on XP here), but because of this Windows 7 Whopper.I mean, you see the picture. Look at this thing!

The Anatomy Of The Indian Online User – WATView
2009-10-21 06:32:00 As per TRAI, India has 8 Crore (80 Million) Online users who uses internet once per month which may be statistically correct but has some serious flaws in it (I will not go much into that though). For example, 1. How many of the “atleast once per month” crowd are browsing from Internet cafes ? it is very hard to judge as it can be anywhere between 25% to 50% 2. I don’t consider mobile net users as online users, they don’t click on ads intentionally and they don’t make purchases from mobile. Most of the mobile browsing is limited to information search or checking email and that too for very short time. From my experience and whatever I have seen on the Indian web space, we can break the Indian online users into 3 segments - 1. Premium Users – the top 1% (around 10 lakh living mostly in metros) who make online purchases from ebay.in, buy online tickets from OTA sites and reserve movie tickets online. They are the real thing and most of the VC funded online startups ar...

Way2SMS.com Claims Over 5 Million User Registrations – A Look At Thei
2009-09-03 10:06:00 One of the online free SMS services in India, Way2SMS.com has recently claimed to have crossed the 5 million mark in user registrations. This comes close to two years and seven months since the website was first operational. In a statement, VV Raju, the founder and CEO of the website says, “Recording five million subscriptions is phenomenal success for any web portal. Only few online players have achieved it but we are the first free SMS provider to make it. Way2SMS has become part of millions of lives by carrying their emotions and feelings. We will continue to live up to the expectations of our users who have faith in way2sms to communicate with their near and dear.” Free SMS is a competitive business since it involves a lot of upfront capital that is required to purchase SMS inventory from the network operators, and monetization is a tough challenge. In India, this area is majorly dominated by only two players 160by2.com and Way2SMS About Competition I have passionat...

Linux's User Interface Puts MS Windows' To SHAME!
2009-08-05 19:11:00 Well, I got me a new refurbished box with very good specs, which is about to become my new home office machine. That's as soon as Slackware 13.0 hits final distribution release, which should be any day now... (Bought the box with Windows on it, you see) So, while I'm twiddling my thumbs waiting for that landmark to come to pass, I did what any Linux user probably does when temporarily owning a copy of Windows (XP Pro here), and checked how it's doing these days. Because, see, I just can't get enough asstroturfers telling me how swell Windows stacks up to Linux lately. Gotta see for myself what all the hype is about. And since Microsoft is now suffering from the delusion that it competes with Linux, well... It didn't take long before the old Microsoft memories came back. Literally before I could get into the desktop, the first problem hit: It doesn't recognize the mouse. To be sure, the mouse is an old Wacom tablet with the little wireless mouse on it, pressed into service be...

Stop Being a Number - User Friendly Vanity URLs Coming Soon on Facebook
2009-06-01 05:24:00 While playing around (not literally) on a poster for a client to promote their Facebook page, we are often caught in the issue of what to print on it. Take WAT Media’s fan page for instance - it is www.facebook.com/pages/WAT/1469-5170337. Now even if we somehow manage to print it somewhere, I guess hardly anyone would remember it enough to go find it on Facebook by typing such a URL out.Things get worse for individual profiles like ours - basically on Facebook we are just numbers. However, there seems to be hope for a lot of us now. A good 3 months after it initially tested it out, Facebook now seems to be looking at providing vanity URLs to its users. Which means profiles and most like even pages can get vanity URLs - say Facebook.com/Maneesh (I’d like that a lot, though I know eight others who would like to beat me to it). And something tells me this is going to be a fiercely contested and highly spirited affair when Facebook opens it doors - 200 million people is huge ...

Facebook User Files a $70 Lawsuit on Facebook and Subsequently Withdraws
2009-05-27 18:43:00 Quite a few of us have surely seen the new phishing attack that has been doing rounds of Facebook, well this piece brought an interesting twist to the whole episode. Theodore Karantsalis, a Florida resident deicded that he was not going to take things lying down and decided to sue Facebook for $70.50 for not protecting his account. The funny part however, was how he arrived at the figure, as Mashable quotes: The suit was filed by Theodore Karantsalis in Miami-Dade County court, and the figure calculated based on his claim that after being affected by a Facebook virus, he had to re-add his 250 friends, with an estimated value of 30 cents each. Personally I’d have given my friends a little more weight than just 30 cents, but then I don’t have 250 friends on Facebook either. But then Karantsalis wasn’t after money, as he mentioned ”Basically, I filed to get their attention,” he said before agreeing to drop the suit. “Facebook has failed to res...

User control development advice need
2009-04-01 10:52:00 I have a highly normalized database that has a lot of foreign key references to a central Contact. For example there can be a team, and there will be a team contact. There can be an event, and multiple event contacts, there can be tasks with contact assigned to them. All those reference one contact table because if the contact for an event is also assigned a task and their email changes we dont have to change it in multiple places. The problem is there are over 50,000 people in the contacts table. I cant just load these guys up in a down list. My current search mode is to display search lists using sounded which keeps the list to something manageable. The issue is I think what I need is a contact select ion control that I would use in all the locations where a contact was needed. This control would initially be populated with the first name and last name for the contact along with the contact id and would display the full name (a display name formatted based on contact t...

2009-03-13 10:30:00 We have seen how to define a Pop up Form and how it can be made to appear on a particular position on the Application window, when it is opened. We have also seen that the Form behavior is controlled by setting or modifying the Property values of the Form. In those cases we have changed the Form's Pop up, Border Style and Auto Center Property Values manually during design time.Here, we will try something different and will attempt to change the Form opening Modes (Data Entry Mode or Edit/Search Mode) at run time automatically based on the identity of the Current User of the Form. When the Database is shared on a Network the same Form can be opened by different Users and the Form should behave differently for each User or Users Group. For Example, a single Form can be used for Data Entry by one group of Users, who are allowed only to key-in new records and others are allowed to View, Edit and Search but not allowed to add new records.

Twitter User Base Continues To Grow
2009-02-13 02:38:00 Source: MediaPostDespite the potential for information overload, short-message sharing services like Twitter appear to be taking hold with an ever-larger share of U.S. consumers.By last December, 11% of Web-equipped U.S. adults said they used such a service to put out updates about themselves or follow the updates of others, according to a report released Thursday by the Pew Internet & American Life Project.Pew's findings are based on data from telephone interviews with 2,253 U.S. adults conducted late last year by Princeton Survey Research Associates International.Perhaps demonstrating the rapid rise in short-message sharing services, just a few weeks earlier, in November of last year, 9% of Web users reported using a Twitter-like service, while in May of last year, 6% reported using the service.What's more, Twitter -- which Pew deems "the most well-known" such service -- has only been around since August 2006.To continue reading click here

User-Generated Content Difficult to Monetize
2009-02-13 00:58:00 What part of “Duh!” do advertisers not understand? I’ve ranted about the term “user” before. I am a “person”, don’t know about you. Generated, Schmenerated! I “create” or “write”. And content is, well, content. This quote is what got me: “Marketers want to advertise next to content they can trust, so this frenzy of nonprofessional content generation is not likely to produce adequate monetary rewards. Advertisers continue to shy away from attaching their brands to unpredictable content.” via eMarketer: User-Generated Content Difficult to Monetize. Content that advertisers “can trust.” They’re kidding, right? Ad execs are right up there with lawyers and auto mechanics on the “Don’t Trust ‘em” continuum. So if an advertiser’s customer creates the content it isn’t trustworthy. If I say Brand X is great that’s bad for Brand X? And if I say Brand ...
