India censors and blocks websites through Court orders as per IT Act 2000. Mostly theses bans are instigated under copyright and trademark infringement through film studio scare without proper security measures and lists that they provide without proper research or professional technical services. The current blocks are initiated by ISPs under court order for blocking the illegal sites themselves with warning the site accessed as currently deemed to be illegal. Many of the sites listed may be occasionally or even regularly available, depending on the access or change of current events

A few weeks ago, a very smart friend asked me how she might play music from her iPhone through an external speaker to entertain about 40 people at an event, without using any cables. I suggested a Bluetooth speaker, and showed her how it worked. But she still wondered if this was a reliable solution, because she didn’t know if the location of the event had a Wi-Fi network.

As I tried to explain that Wi-Fi was irrelevant in this case, it occurred to me that a lot of people may be too embarrassed to ask what the difference is between the two widely used forms of wireless data transmission. So here goes.

Both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are found in almost every laptop, tablet and smartphone. But they’re very different, and generally used for different things. They can be on and active at the same time, doing these different things, or you can use each one separately.

Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are both methods that provide wireless communication, but the difference between the two mainly stems from what they are designed to do and how they are used. The main difference is that Bluetooth is primarily used to connect devices without using cables, while Wi-Fi provides high-speed access to the Internet.

Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that is used to exchange data over short distances (less than 30 feet), usually between personal mobile devices. This means that a Bluetooth-enabled device such as a smartphone is able to communicate with other Bluetooth devices, such as a wireless headset, mp3 player or printer. Bluetooth, therefore, acts much like a cord between the two devices by creating a secure, wireless personal area network in which these devices can communicate.

Wi-Fi can also act like Bluetooth, connecting two devices directly over a short range. A version called Wi-Fi Direct does this. It can transfer photos and files between nearby devices, just like Bluetooth.

Here’s what you need to know: Bluetooth is a short-range wireless solution for pairing one device with another, whereas Wi-Fi has greater range and works with multiple devices.

माइक्रोसॉफ्ट का अगला ऑपरेटिंग सिस्‍टम विंडोज 10 होगा। इसमें कुछ ऐसे फीचर्स हैं, जो विंडोज यूजर्स के लिए नए नहीं होंगे। लेकिन बाकी सारे फीचर्स ऐसे हैं, जो वाकई नए और मजेदार हैं। आइए जानते हैं इसकी 10 खासियत :

1-विंडोज 10 का डिजाइन ऑफिस वर्कर्स को ध्‍यान में रखते हुए बनाया गया है। दरअसल माइक्रोसॉफ्ट ने अपने मौजूदा ऑपरेटिंग सिस्‍टम विंडोज 8 की काफी आलोचना सुनी है। यह कम्‍प्‍यूटर सिस्‍टम के रिसोर्स का अत्‍यधिक इस्‍तेमाल भी करता है। इसलिए नए वर्जन में विंडोज 8 की खामियों को हटाया गया है।

2- आईटी मैनेजर्स की सहूलियत को ध्‍यान में रखते हुए इसमें पहले से बेहतर सिक्‍योरिटी फीचर्स दिए गए हैं। इसमें सिस्‍टम प्रोसेस को ऐसा बनाया गया है, जिससे लाइसेंसी सॉफ्टवेयर्स का इंस्‍टॉलेशन और उनका मैनेजमेंट आसानी से किया जा सके। इंस्‍टॉलेशन को पहले से अधिक सुगम बनाया गया है। कस्‍टम एप स्‍टोर, सॉफ्टवेयर डवलपमेंट की परमिशन देता है।

3- स्‍मार्टफोन की खासियतें, बड़े डाटा सेंटर्स जैसी सुविधाएं : विंडोज 10, विंडोज फोन और विंडोज टैबलेट के साथ आसानी से सिंक्रनाइज किया जा सकता है। इसे अन्‍य पोर्टेबल हाइब्रिड डिवाइसेस से भी कनेक्‍ट किया जा सकेगा। एक्‍सबॉक्‍स यूजर्स को इसका सबसे ज्‍यादा अनुभव हो सकेगा। यूजर्स अपनी सुविधानुसार तथा मनपसंद तरीके से यूजर इंटरफेस की स्‍क्रीन को एडजस्‍ट कर सकेंगे। इसका सर्वाधिक फायदा टैबलेट यूजर्स को महसूस होगा।

4- डेस्‍कटॉप के नए स्‍टार्ट मेनू में विंडोज 7 की उपयोगिता तथा विंडोज 8 की टाइल्‍स की फंक्‍शनिंग भी शामिल की गई है। स्‍टार्ट मेनू दो कॉलम में बंटा है, जिसमें पुरानी शैली के आइकन तो हैं ही साथ ही रिसेंट प्रोग्राम्‍स की टाइल भी दिखाई देगी। यह टाइल्‍स कस्‍टमाइज की जा सकेंगी।
विंडोज डेस्‍कटॉप पर चल सकेंगे सभी मॉडर्न एप्‍स : विंडोज स्‍टोर से डाउनलोड किए गए सभी एप डेस्‍कटॉप पर भी चलाए जा सकेंगे। इनको रिसाइज तो किया जा ही सकेगा साथ ही टास्‍कबार के साथ पिन भी किया जा सकेगा।

5- विंडोज की खासियत होगी वर्चुअल डेस्‍कटॉप : ऑपरेटिंग सिस्‍टम एक्‍स और लिनक्‍स की खासियत रहा वर्चुअल डेस्‍कटॉप, अब विंडोज में भी उपलब्‍ध रहेगा। टास्‍क व्‍यू के जरिए सभी रनिंग एप्‍स को देखा जा सकेगा और उन्‍हें डेस्‍कटॉप में अरेंज भी किया जा सकेगा।
6- विंडोज 10 अपने यूजर्स को यह सुविधा देगा कि वो सारे एप्‍स की टाइल्‍स को डेस्‍कटॉप पर मनचाहे स्‍थान पर अरेंज कर सकें। साथ ही यह अपने यूजर्स को टाइल्‍स की प्‍लेसिंग के लिए स्‍थान का सजेशन भी देगा।

7-विंडोज 10 में सर्च और पावर यूजर फीचर को उन्‍न किया गया है। अब यूजर लोकल और वेब सर्च को ज्‍यादा प्रभावी ढंग से निरूपित कर सकेंगे। स्‍टार्ट मेनू पर क्लिक करते ही सर्च का ऑप्‍शन भी दिखने लगेगा। यह फीचर ठीक वैसा ही है, जैसा विंडोज 8 में था। कमांड प्रॉम्‍प्‍ट पर यूजर्स अब कमांड को Ctrl+V की
स्‍ट्रोक से पेस्‍ट भी कर सकेंगे।

8-चार्म बार में कोई बदलाव नहीं किया गया है। विंडोज 8 की ही तरह 10 में भी स्‍टार्ट स्‍क्रीन से चार्म बार को हटाया नहीं गया है। हालांकि इसमें काफी इम्‍प्रूवमेंट किया गया है। विंडोज 8 का उपयोग कर चुके यूजर्स इस फंक्‍शन को अच्‍छी तरह से उपयोग कर सकेंगे।

9-माइक्रोसॉफ्ट ने यह भी स्‍पष्‍ट किया है कि उन्‍होंने इस वर्जन का नाम विंडोज 9 न रखते हुए 10 क्‍यों रखा है। बकौल कंपनी इस वर्जन में अत्‍यधिक बदलाव और नए कंसेप्‍ट्स का उपयोग किया गया है। विंडोज 10 के बीटा वर्जन तथा फुल वर्जन की लॉन्चिंग के बीच काफी वक्‍त होने की वजह से इसे 9वें वर्जन का नाम नहीं दिया गया है।

10 Tricks To Fix Google Chrome Not Responding Issue

Trick 1 . Browser Optimization

Sometimes your browser optimization is more than enough to fix the chrome not responding problem. Open Google chrome, clear the cache, browsing history and cookies.

Open menu ( top right corner)
Click, “More Tools > Clear Browsing Data” or use the short cut “Ctrl+Shift+Del”
In the upcoming window, leaving the options, passwords and content licenses, check all other boxes as shown below.

Trick 2: Cookie Clean Up

Whenever you visit a new website, it leaves a small piece of data called cookies with your web browser. It will record your preferences, browsing history and the like info. When you visit the same website in future, this file will be used to remember who you are and what you saw in that website etc. (Side note: This is how websites like ebay, amazon show ads as per your previous view, purchasing history).

Though cookie files will not consume much of the memory, what if you visit 100 sites per day? You don’t really need to keep cookies from every website you visit. Every additional KB you add up with the “Temporary memory” will slow down your system. By default, Google chrome allows cookies from all website. But you can control this settings.

Open menu
Click “Settings->show advanced settings“

Trick 3 : Close the non responsive window

When you open more than one tab in Google chrome, chances are one or few tabs will get frozen. At times, closing only the non responsive tabs will fix the issue.

To do this open chrome’s task manager. You can do this by pressing the keys “Shift+Esc”

Trick 4 : Disable the Extensions

Sometimes malfunction of third party plug-in(s) can trigger the Google chrome not responding error. Try disabling all the third party extensions and re activate it one by one and check the browser. It will help you identify the plug-in which causes the incompatibility issues. Spot that one and disable it permanently. Hopefully, it will fix the issue.

Open Menu
Click Tools->Extensions.
It will show you all the extensions installed in your browser.

Trick 5 : Bad Proxies Might Be The Culprit

If you break your head with why is my Google chrome not working, check the proxy settings. Incorrect proxy settings might cause this issue.

Open menu
Navigate to settings->advanced settings.
Click “change proxy settings” under the label Network

Trick 6 : Turn Off The Sandbox Mode

Sandbox mode security feature can make your chrome go not responding. Try disabling this feature and check whether the problem persist.
Right click on the Google chrome short cut (In Desktop).
Select “Properties” and navigate to the tab “Shorcut”.
Append the string “-no-sandbox-” at the end of target field.

Trick 7 : Run A Virus Check

Malware and virus programs can corrupt our files beyond repairable. It is same with the browsers as well. Scan your system with up-to-date antivirus program and keep your system clean. Doing this alone will solve 80% of your system issues.

Trick 8 : Fix Your Flash

When working with Google chrome, almost all of us encounter the pop up, asking us to choose between “Wait / Kill pages”. It happens due to the conflict that occur between the Chrome’s internal Flash module and Adobe flash plug-in. When both are enabled, Instead of choosing any one, Chrome tries to use both and finally ends up with a browser crash. To avoid this issue, enable anyone of the flash version.

Enter the term “Chrome://plugins” in the chrome address bar without the quotes.

Trick 9 : Clean Up The Local Storage

One other reason experts claim for Google chrome not working error is, the storage of Corrupted files. These files are already corrupted so clean up those from your system right away.

Types of LED Monitors

Introduction :-
Most people are familiar with the fact that monitors come in various resolutions and screen sizes, can have a matte or glossy screen surface and can offer specific features such as 120Hz refresh rates and 3D capabilities. The range of displays and variation in specification can be rather daunting and what’s more; you can’t necessarily trust the ‘on paper’ figures in the first place. One fundamentally important aspect of an LCD monitor which will dictate how it performs and what kind of tasks it would be best at performing is the panel type. Although there are various sub-divisions all modern screens will generally fall into one of three categories with distinct performance characteristics.

TN panel monitor :-
For several years now the TN panel monitor has been the most ubiquitous on the market. Manufacturers will often be keen to point out in their specifications whether an ‘alternative’ kind of panel is used; if in doubt assume its TN. General attributes include a relatively low manufacturing cost and a relatively high level of responsiveness; the pixels change their state quickly which helps make moving images appear smoother. Some Twisted Nematic displays have double the usual refresh rate (120Hz instead of 60Hz) allowing them to take advantage of ‘active 3D shutter’ technologies and allowing them to display twice as much information every second for a smoother gaming experience. This has gone a stage further more recently with some models promoting a 144Hz refresh rate and aiming this purely at a fluid 2D rather than 3D experience.

If an LCD monitor is trying to display black then the colour filter will be positioned such that as little light as possible (of any colour) from the backlight will get through. Most LCD monitors will do a reasonable job at this but the filter isn’t perfect and so the blacks may not appear as deep as they should. A definite strength of the VA panel is its efficiency at blocking light from the backlight when it’s not wanted. This gives deeper blacks and higher contrast ratios of around 2000:1 – 5000:1 with ‘dynamic contrast’ modes disabled – several times higher than that of the other LCD technologies. They are also less susceptible to ‘bleed’ or ‘clouding’ towards the edges of the screen which can make such screens good candidates for movie lovers and nice to use for general purpose work.

IPS PLS & AHVA
When it comes to the end result these three technologies are essentially very similar; the key differences being that IPS technology is developed chiefly by LG Display, PLS technology by Samsung and AHVA by AUO. These are sometimes simply referred to collectively as ‘IPS-type’ panels. The real selling point of these is their superior colour accuracy, consistency and viewing angles when compared to the other LCD technologies. Each colour shade remains distinct with its own ‘identity’ regardless of its position on the screen. Some of the higher-end IPS and PLS models take things even further by offering support for extended colour gamuts (increasing potential shade range) and higher colour depths (increasing potential accuracy). This makes IPS and PLS panels good candidates for ‘colour critical’ work in particular. It is also common for larger IPS monitors to feature higher resolutions than most of their TN and VA counterparts; 2560 x 1440 instead of 1920 x 1080 for 27” models and 2560 x 1600 for 30” models. The choice of resolutions, ever-decreasing price and colour performance really broadens their appeal beyond just ‘colour critical’ work and makes them attractive candidates for other uses including gaming and general desktop work.

RJ 45 & RJ11

A Registered Jack (RJ) is a standardized telecommunication network interface for connecting voice and data equipment to a service provided by a local exchange carrier or long distance carrier. Registration interfaces were first defined in the Universal Service Ordering Code (USOC) system of the Bell System in the United States for complying with the registration program for customer-supplied telephone equipment mandated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the 1970s.[1] They were subsequently codified in the Code of Federal Regulations Part 68.[2][3][4]

The specification includes physical construction, wiring, and signal semantics. Accordingly, registered jacks are primarily named by the letters RJ, followed by two digits that express the type. Additionally, letter suffixes indicate minor variations. For example, RJ11, RJ14, and RJ25 are the most commonly used interfaces for telephone connections for one-, two-, and three-line service, respectively. Although these standards are legal definitions in the United States, some interfaces are used world-wide. Specifically, for example, the IEEE 802 standards project has adopted RJ-type interfaces for ISDN (RJ48) and computer networking specifications (RJ45), such as Ethernet.

The connectors used for registered jack installations are primarily the modular connector and the 50-pin miniature ribbon connector types. For example, RJ11 uses a six-position two-conductor connector (6P2C), RJ14 uses a six-position four-conductor (6P4C) modular jack, while RJ21 uses a 25-pair (50-pin) miniature ribbon connector.

Who invented the Internet?

A single person did not create the Internet that we know and use today. Below is a listing of different people who have helped contribute and develop the Internet.
The idea

The initial idea is credited as being Leonard Kleinrock's after he published his first paper entitled "Information Flow in Large Communication Nets" on May 31, 1961.
In 1962, J.C.R. Licklider became the first Director of IPTO and gave his vision of a galactic network. In addition to ideas from Licklider and Kleinrock, Robert Taylor helped create the idea of the network that later became ARPANET.
Initial creation

The Internet as we know it today first started being developed in the late 1960's.
In the summer of 1968, the Network Working Group (NWG) held its first meeting chaired by Elmer Shapiro with the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) with attendees: Steve Carr, Steve Crocker, Jeff Rulifson, and Ron Stoughton. In the meeting, the group discussed solving issues related to getting hosts to communicate with each other.
In December 1968, Elmer Shapiro with SRI released a report "A Study of Computer Network Design Parameters." Based on this work and earlier work done by Paul Baraon, Thomas Marill and others; Lawrence Roberts and Barry Wessler helped to create the final version of the Interface Message Processor (IMP) specifications. Bolt Beranek and Newman, Inc. (BBN) was later awarded the contract to design and build the IMP subnetwork.

देहरादून: फेसबुक पर विदेशी नाम वाले 'फ्रेंड' ने ठगे 1.3 करोड़ हरादून, 22 जुलाई 2014 | अपडेटेड: 09:20 IST


कोई नया फेसबुक फ्रेंड आपको आर्थिक मदद देने का वादा करे तो सावधान रहें. हो सकता है कि वह आपको झांसा दे रहा हो. देहरादून की एक महिला ऐसे ही एक झांसे में आकर 1.3 करोड़ रुपये गंवा बैठी.
अंग्रेजी अखबार 'द टाइम्स ऑफ इंडिया' में छपी खबर के मुताबिक, आरोपी शख्स ने देहरादून में वृद्धाश्रम खोलने के लिए उसे 9 करोड़ रुपये देने का वादा किया था. लेकिन इससे पहले उसने इस रकम की टैक्स अदायगी करने को कहा. राम विहार की रहने वाली बीना ठाकुर इस झांसे में आ गई और अलग-अलग बैंक खातों में 1.3 करोड़ रुपये जमा करवा दिए.

आरोपी ने बताया विदेशी नाम
पुलिस में की गई शिकायत के मुताबिक, पीड़िता ओएनजीसी कर्मचारी की पत्नी है. वह पिछले साल नवंबर में रिचर्ड एंडरसन नाम के शख्स से फेसबुक के जरिये संपर्क में आए. दोनों ने फोन नंबर साझा किये और फोन पर बात करने लगे. फोन पर एंडरसन ने बीना को बताया कि वह भारत के लोगों की मदद करना चाहता है और इसके लिए उसने सुझाव मांगे. इसके बाद उसने वादा किया कि वह ओल्ड एज होम के लिए 9 करोड़ रुपये मदद के तौर पर देगा.

रिजर्व बैंक का नाम लेकर की फोन कॉल
कुछ दिन बाद बीना को एक फोन आया. फोन करने वाले ने दावा किया कि वह रिजर्व बैंक की फॉरेन एक्सचेंज ब्रांच से बोल रहा है. उसने बताया कि वह सारा पैसा उस पर लगने वाला टैक्स चुकाकर ले सकती है.

देहरादून के एसएसपी अजय रौटेला ने बताया, 'इसके बाद बीना ने अलग अलग बैंक खातों में काफी रकम जमा कर दी. बाद में उन्हें दो लोगों का फोन आया, जिन्होंने अपने नाम विलियम जॉर्ज और केविन ब्राउन बताए और कुछ और पैसों की मांग की. बीना ने 25 बैंक खातो में कुल 1.3 करोड़ रुपये जमा कर दिए.'

मामले में एंडरसन, जॉर्ज, ब्राउन और एक और शख्स के खिलाफ धारा 420 के तहत मामला दर्ज कर लिया गया है. उन बैंक खातों के ब्यौरे ट्रेस करने की कोशिश की जा रही है, जिनमें पैसे मंगवाए गए. इनमें से ज्यादातर अकाउंट केरल, तमिलनाडु और कर्नाटक के हैं.

भारत में सबसे ज्यादा पॉपुलर सोशल नेटवर्किंग साइट फेसबुक आज करीब 40 मिनट तक ठप रही. हालांकि अब इस तकनीकी समस्या पर काबू पा लिया गया है. फेसबुक यूजर्स इस बारे में कुछ भी समझ नहीं पा रहे थे. कंप्यूटर के साथ-साथ मोबाइल फोन पर भी फेसबुक नहीं चल रहा था.
यह समस्या दुनिया के कितने हिस्सों में पेश आ रही थी, यह अभी साफ नहीं है. हालांकि ट्विटर पर अमेरिका, ब्रिटेन, यूरोप और एशिया के लोगों ने भी इस बारे में लिखा है. इससे पहले 9 मई को भी फेसबुक को ऐसी समस्या झेलनी पड़ी थी जब लोग लॉग इन नहीं कर पा रहे थे. बताया जा रहा है कि 6 महीने में यह तीसरी बार है जब फेसबुक को तकनीकी समस्या झेलनी पड़ी है.

फेसबुक खोलने की कोशिश करने पर यह संदेश लिखा आ रहा था, 'सॉरी समथिंग वेंट रॉन्ग.' इस मैसेज में दो ऑप्शन आ रहे थे, 'गो बैक' और 'हेल्प'. लेकिन इन पर क्लिक भी बेनतीजा ही थे. हाल ही में ट्वीटडेक के साथ भी ऐसी ही समस्या पेश आई थी, लेकिन जल्द ही उसे ठीक कर लिया गया था. गौरतलब है कि भारत में 10 करोड़ से ज्यादा लोग फेसबुक इस्तेमाल करते हैं. इसके अलावा इस पर काफी व्यापार भी निर्भर करता है.
