Carbyn : Today's Contender!

To all the App & OS Developers.. Carbyn has built a HTML5 OS. HTML5 defines the 5th major revision of the core language of the World Wide Web: the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). In this version, new features are introduced to help Web application authors, new elements are introduced based on research into prevailing authoring practices, and special attention has been given to defining clear conformance criteria for user agents in an effort to improve interoperability.

What's Remarkable in Carbyn?

There’s nothing to install since HTML5 works in the browser. You simply open a browser and log-in to Carbyn and you’re ready to go! Apps can be tailored for Carbyn from the ground up using HTML5 or there’s a wrapper that can be used to make existing apps work. Yes..with the revised SDK, the team can get any app up and running in less than a half hour. 

What's So Fashionable and Attractive about it? 

It is that there’s much better multi-tasking to their SDK which allows different apps to talk to one another in a way that traditional web apps can’t. Carbyn is meant to run anywhere with a “modern” browser. Presently running on both an iPad and a BlackBerry PlayBook. Soon it will work on smartphones as well! 

Technical Interview Demystified!

Here I am again with a new desire for those who are technically weak and thereby not able to crack into the Top Most Companies. Faqden Labs brought home the bacon in putting an end to this! Faqden Labs has come up with a brand new kinda App.. Technical Interview Demystified.

This poses a new way to prepare for your next Big Technical Interview. The Question Database for the app has been carefully designed and developed by experts who cracked into companies like Yahoo, Microsoft, Bloomberg and Goldman Sachs. It extends a wide variety of selection criteria that you can choose from, to make your learning more targeted. You can specify and customize the application by Technology, Company, Job title and a lot more!

It also lets you share Individual questions with your friends to make preparation more of a collaborative effort. To make it more directed, you can mark the questions "Starred" & "Blocked". The more you use this functionality, the more the app will learn about you by identifying your weak & strong areas, and more customized it will be for your learning needs. All you need to do is interact! 

Built by the students of MIT and Cornell, this app uses the latest Artificial Intelligence and Web Semantics techniques to elucidate your Technical Interview. Here is an explanation to the track of Characters.

Stay Tuned!
       

IntelliVocab GRE Deluxe Cracks into Top 100!

IntelliVocab (formerly PowerVocab) personalizes the English vocabulary learning for competitive exams and personal improvement. This app is built by students of MIT based on the latest research from MIT Computer Science and Web Semantics Lab.  It uses latest machine learning algorithms and web semantic techniques to collapse billions of possibilities into comprehensible probabilistic profile information, in real-time. It completely controls the learning environment, so that you do not have to plan your learning approach. All you need to do is interact. The more you practice, the more it learns about you and figures out words that are diffcult for you. It ensures you achieve the top scores in competitive exams like GRE, GMAT, SAT, or in your professional work.

Those who are facing the GRE, SAT or GMAT know the joy of preparation for these high-stakes tests. A surefire way to improve one’s chances for success is propping up on vocabulary words. For excellent practice, get one of the Free IntelliVocab apps for the iPhone. One version focuses on vocabulary for the GRE and GMAT, while the other is geared toward the SAT. IntelliVocab uses a combination of practice tests, word lists and progress tracking to teach the user new vocabulary words and pace one’s practice until test day. Practice tests present a word (a robotic voice also speaks it) and four definitions. Tap on the answer, which will either then highlight in green if correct or red if wrong.  After several practice tests then it may be time for the full-blown practice test. It is a 30-question test with a five-minute time limit.  For those who would rather focus on the more challenging words, head to the settings menu. Here the word lists for the easiest, medium or hardest words can be turned according to your wish. Have a look to the Screen shots!

Taylor Cavanah: Into A Terrible Fix!

Taylor Cavanah, Locai's Founder got into an awful mess for their newly launched Android App missing in the Android market. Yes.. strange but true!

Locai launched their Android App..but even days later, it was no where to be found in the Android market. What must be the reason? It's none other than the Google's Auto-correct  feature which makes the App to be invisible. Is that really possible for an App to go invisible? Check out! In reality, somewhere on the back end, Google’s Android Market is auto-correcting all searches for “Locai” to “Local” without alerting the user. And guess what.. even I faced the same while searching for Locai's Logo. Here's the Screen Shot!

Even after successful branding and promotion for several months, Locai is losing a ton of users and investment as people though converted to download the app, but can’t find it. Since everyone downloads apps by searching for "Locai" first, this is raising a huge blow to them.

Now that Locai is losing a gallon of users, it is stuck with the decision.. Do they change their name (thereby abandoning whatever progress with the brand they’ve made so far), Or do they just sit back and hope Google is willing to implement a fix like prioritizing exact matches before showing autocorrect results?

Smart Phones : Are they Smart enough?

For a mobile that calls itself a 'Smartphone' the "Auto-Correct function" proved to be the dumbest feature! The predictably ends up interfering in people's messages, changing them to vastly different meanings. This is really hilarious... Just thought I'd share it with those of you who don't know about it. From changing the words 'kissing' to 'killing' or 'cross country' to 'cross dressing' the receiver normally gets a bit of a shock, before a laugh. And the red-faced sender usually has to send a hurried explanation, just in case the receiver gets the wrong idea. Here are the 15 most viewed auto-correct fails sent in to Damn You Autocorrect since the site launch. Since it has been launched back in October, the site has gotten over 300 million page views! That’s crazy!
