Twitter Arabia..!

I recently came across this article and was keen to share it with you all. I am working on a social media live  project, so I found it interesting. So here it is.

Ever wondered which country has the most Twitter active population???

Its none other than Saudi Arabia.

When Twitter filed for its initial public offering with the Securities and Exchange Commission, one of the risks it noted was that the U.S. has a higher proportion of Internet users on Twitter than other countries do, and that it may have a difficult time monetizing its products overseas.

But a study from  a social media analytics firm, found that Twitter  may not have trouble internationally after all. The firm looked at the percentage of people using Twitter in a country relative to the total number of Internet users in that country and found that the U.S. isn’t even in the top five.

Saudi Arabia actually had the highest percentage of Twitter users relative to its online population. In fact, a full 32 percent of Saudi Arabia’s online population uses the San Francisco-based microblogging service. The U.K. came in sixth place and the U.S., Twitter’s home country, came in eighth, though that may have a lot to do with how much of the U.S. population is on the Internet. The fact that the top two countries are Saudi Arabia and Indonesia should be encouraging for Twitter. The firm also  pointed out that most Internet users in these countries do not have access to a PC and rely on mobile devices for Twitter, meaning they can be lucrative sources of mobile revenue for Twitter. Meanwhile, Nigeria, Germany and India had the three lowest percentages of Twitter users. Study also showed which countries Twitter is likely to focus on to grow its user base.

Interesting.. Isn't it????

END OF AN ERA

Iconic Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar was dismissed for 74 by Narsingh Deonarine, early on day two in second test match between India and West Indies.

In his final 200th test match, Tendulkar's home crowd was left stunned when West Indies captain Darren Sammy took a fine catch at first slip to dismiss the veteran batsmen off Narsingh Deonarine's ball.

Tendulkar's 74 runs inning is widely expected as his final inning as many commentators predict India to beat West Indies by and an entire inning. Starting at the overnight score of 152 for two wickets, India were 221 for three at Tendulkar's exit, which saw the 40-year-old receive an emotional standing ovation from the entire crowd of the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.

While Cheteshwar Pujara grabbed the spotlight in the first half of the day, it was the retiring legend, who held the centre-stage in the last session with his entire family and childhood coach Ramakant Achrekar watching from the stands.

Tendulkar is regarded as one of the greatest cricketers ever and arguably the best in the history of Indian cricket.

The Master Blaster will hang up his boots following the end of the second test match against West Indies, ending a memorable and record-breaking career of 24 years.

"HEROES ARE REMEMBERED, BUT A LEGEND NEVER DIES..!!"

WHERE ARE THE BLACKBERRY BOYS??

Back in 2005, when BlackBerry brought instant messaging to the mobile phone, the company was just entering its boom times. While the iPhone was still a gleam in Steve Jobs' eye, BlackBerry's innovations ensured its smartphone joined maple syrup on the list of Canada's biggest exports.

Six years later, in the summer of 2011, as violence engulfed London and spread to Birmingham, Nottingham, Liverpool and Manchester, so effective was BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) at mobilising the rioters that politicians called for the service to be temporarily shut down.

But two years later, it is the users themselves who are pulling the plug.

As demand for BlackBerry handsets fades, the once noisy BBM grapevine is falling silent. Dozens of alternatives have sprung up to take its place, from Facebook and Apple's own-brand instant messaging applications to independent startups such as WhatsApp and Kik (which also hails from Canada).

Free to download and use (although WhatsApp costs $1 a year after the first year), they use the internet to swap text messages, pictures, voice clips, "stickers", and even videos in WhatsApp's case, between most types of phones.

In an attempt to retain its following, BBM was last week released on Android and Apple phones. Despite the competition, the response has been overwhelming, with an announcement that there have been more than 20m downloads. But despite the initial interest, many believe BBM's wider release will do little to save the service.
In this whole mess very good company has lost its main weapon. I mean, there were people who bought a brand new Blackberry phone just to flaunt BBM. And, for now Blackberry totally messed up selling the app and making it available to android and i-Phone. This is like a total shit. 

Personally I felt very bad after the news, So I dont use BBM at all. 

 

Never will...

iPhone 5S launched

 

 

What is the iPhone 5S?

Apple’s iPhone is one of the most popular and highly anticipated smartphones in the world.

Whether you love or hate Apple, the original iPhone revolutionized the way we view and use our phone and, at one time, was the only smartphone you would consider buying. 

iPhone 5S - Design and Features

The iPhone 5, launched last year, arrived with a 4-inch screen and diamond cut aluminium body. As is Apple’s way with its S phones, the iPhone 5S shares the same design. At first glance it looks identical, but there are some small changes in the colour options, as Apple has added the much sought after gold option, while the 'black' is now a lighter 'space grey'. The silver and white one we have, however, is exactly the same.

It’s an angular, timeless design – elegant and slim. In hand the cut aluminium feels premium and solid, but the iPhone 5S is far lighter than most other phones. At just 112g it initially feels a little too light, especially if you’re used to the iPhone 4S's glass and metal body. However the build is excellent and the 5S certainly doesn't feel flimsy the way some lighter phones can.

However the build is excellent and the 5S certainly doesn't feel flimsy the way some lighter phones can. 

The highly engineered body feels quality, but it isn't the most comfortable. The diamond cut edges are a little sharp, not sharp enough to cause any real discomfort but slightly more rounded edges would make it easier to hold for long periods of time.

However, iPhone 5S is thin and light enough to easily warrant a case, whether it’s the pricey £35 leather case Apple announced with it or a third-party one. Using the leather case significantly softens the phone and makes it much more pleasurable to hold.

A double LED flash is next to the camera while on the front the screen bezels are slim. The home button is detailed in a metal ring that provides a useful function, the Touch ID – more on that later.

The one difference it has from most other phones is that the 3.5mm headphone jack is at the bottom. It’s a little odd at first, but actually makes sense when you consider that a phone goes top first into a pocket so you don’t have to flip it round when you take it out.

As a 4-inch phone the iPhone 5S is significantly smaller than all its direct Android and Windows 8 competitors. Deciding whether the smaller screen is a benefit or weakness will depend entirely on you and whether you value screen real-estate over ease of use.

Samsung has managed to keep the Galaxy S4 as tidy as possible, but its 5-inch screen means that it is more of a handful and it can be tricky to reach some areas of the screen when used one-handed. The 4.7-inch screen on the HTC One is slightly more manageable
