Stuck in Smiley Faces? Need To Add Emoticons In Facebook Chat???????

Smiley Faces represents simple emotions. Now Facebook Chat lets us to use the profile picture of any user, official Page, or event on the service as an emoticon. That means we can make one out of our best friend, Chuck Norris, Justin Bieber, Barack Obama, Britney Spears, or anyone else. This really opens up a whole new way to express complex emotions. Eager to know how to do it, just you have to do is,

·         Go to any profile, official Page, or event that you want to use as an emoticon.
·         Look at the URL. Find the username or profile ID at the end of the URL such as “VinDiesel” from http://www.facebook.com/VinDiesel, “JoshConstine”, “cocacola”, or “45197362282″
·         Place that name or number in double brackets like [[VinDiesel]]
·         Enter that into a Facebook Chat or Message field. When you send it, the bracketed number or letters will appear as that person, Page, or event’s current profile picture.

We can send these custom emoticons from the web or mobile, but they’ll only display as photos on the web. When viewed through a Facebook app or mobile site they appear as their bracketed string. Similarly, we can’t use them in status updates, wall posts or comments yet. They appear pretty small, but we can hover over the photos to view the username it belongs too. Community Pages, those that aren’t owned by anyone and that display a Wikipedia entry, can’t be used.
 It’s tough luck! Not so excited about other people using us as an emoticon? Profile pictures and usernames are public, so this doesn’t technically violate privacy and there’s no way to opt out of having our face used. And for a long time, Facebook only had one custom smiley. The code :putnam: would show the face of Facebook engineer Chris Putnam. But now we can replace verbs, nouns and adjectives with whoever represents them best.

                As our writer John Biggs described yesterday, we can use  4Chan Ragefaces (here are the codes), and Reddit user Sky_Prodigy spawned a thread full of codes for faces and alphabets. The emoticon has evolved. To have a few ideas for people and pages we could use as emoticons. Just copy the bracketed text at the end.
  • Pirate - [[CaptainJackSparrow]]
  • Boyishness –  [[JustinBieber]]
  • President, leadership - [[barackobama]]
  • Santa Claus - [[TheMagicOfSantaClaus]]
  • Male attractiveness - (Ryan Gosling) [[246631252031491]]

Enjoy Facebook Chat by adding some cute Emoticons……………. Have a great Chat………

‘TableCloth’, Creates Halloween Sense>>>>

Nowadays, we used to see many Halloween things, by the way I’m gonna talk about the ‘Halloween’ sense of table design. Table design was unveiled by German architectural studio, Graft Architects. This creepy table is called ‘tablecloth’. It has a capacity to withstand the weight of an adult man standing on the table top.

This is dominated with white ‘tablecloth’ furniture which really breaks the tradition outlook and shape of tables. Tablecloth has come with four visible legs. It has a smooth surface which is good for the users that dislike changing the tablecloth.

This white ‘tablecloth’ is a new piece of furniture, this result turns to be really good, as the new table not only features the sense of beauty but also has a solid look and stable to ensure a long-term use.

It captures a sensual moment of playfulness and awe, the table cloth begins to sway and as it is about to come off and it reveals that there is no table underneath and creates the halloween sense. As if it never existed.

It is a limited edition of an amazing design and only nine pieces were made. This was made out of carbon fiber and plastic and it seems like a floating table cloth. They have not yet revealed the cost and availability of it. Have a look at all these pics…..

Compatible Universal Charger>>>>>

Nowadays Mobile, iPhone, iPod etc is one of the main things we used to carry along with us. But these devices work when it has been charged or else we can’t do anything with it.  So it requires charger to recharge but one device at a time and is a tedious task.
 
I have seen many chargers on the market, in that I’m satisfied with Fuse Powerslice Charging Station which might be the right thing for us. This charger can recharge several devices simultaneously. I can say this is really a charging station which can recharge four devices simultaneously.

Fuse Powerslice Charging Station is comprised of base unit and three pie-shaped slices and it can recharge four devices simultaneously.  In these pie-shaped slices, each slice can recharge different type of device such as iPhone/iPod touch, Samsung Smartphone’s or LG handsets. It also has an USB port on the base of the charger, so it lets us to recharge any USB device very easily.

This will be useful for those who have several devices which wanted to be recharged at the same time. Charging slices are interchangeable and can be slid in and out of place. Fuse Powerslice Charging Station kit includes Powerslice Base Unit Charging Station and 2 iPhone/ipod Charging Slices. It has Separated USB 2.0 outlet for expandability.

 Coming to the price, Fuse Powerslice Charging Station is priced at $44.99 and can purchase additional slices for $.9.99 each. This is available now at fuse™ online. It’s simple to use, just pop your phone or other device straight onto the slice that is compatible and there is no need for each individual power cords.

 I’m happy with it and is great because my phone which is a Samsung which fits the micro slice, fit and charged perfectly. And my other device which fits for the USB port perfect and gently. It’s a great thing, can be called as universal charger and it is not necessary to carry our mobile or other devices charger, replaces the Fuse Powerslice Charging Station.

Laser Lighting Is Safer For Our Eyes!!!!!


                BMW has come out with its new technology where laser headlights to replace the traditional light emitting diode (LED) bulbs. This technology has to be debuted on the hybrid BMW i8 concept which is more efficient than the standard light emitting diodes where currently it is used by many vehicles.

                BMW’s laser beam headlights can be up to 1,000 times brighter than a traditional LED where it helps in saving the energy. This laser lighting generates 170 lumens while standard LED lighting generates around 100 lumens per watt.
                This really works better because the light used is more safe for the eyes. It is called as “a pure white light which is very bright and pleasant to the eye where the bluish laser light is converted by a phosphor material inside the headlight.

                Engineers involved in, have no plans to radically reduce the size of the headlights because this new technology is going to play an important role in the styling of future BMW models and they are trying to yield new alternatives for headlight positioning and body design.

                This BMW laser lights manage to avoid burning holes in people’s eyeballs. That’s great!! When we drive LED headlight cars or any car featuring this LED headlights passes us while driving it distracts with its burning holes. This leads to accidents or lives us in rough/spoiled roads (For E.g. Indian roads).

                This new lighting technology, laser equipped BMW cars are going to appear within a couple of years. I think Dr. Evil is going to be the first person to buy this laser BMW car. And one thing it doesn’t only help in saving energy and it also saves on gas which makes way for entirely new light functions that are safer.

                Laser lighting is monochromic which means it has same length of all the light waves. A laser headlight consumes half of its energy when compared to LED headlights. This is really a human-concerned car because its key consideration is of our safety.



Interacted & Touched In Mid Air!!!!


Nowadays, the technology has been a lot with its latest innovation but there is no end for it. These days we were watching 3D movies with 3D glasses, later on we watched without 3D glasses but now. Researchers from the Keio University in Japan have developed a new 3D display that displays floating 3D characters that can be interacted with and touched in mid air.

This device lets us to touch those three dimensional gaming characters. RePro3D display is made up of a 3D display glasses it’s a mechanically controlled model environment and a tactile interface.

These enable humans to intuitively interact with and operate 3D objects using the hands. However, realizing 3D object interactions as if the user is actually touching the object in the real world is quite difficult because of screen shape. The conventional methods are restricted to a flat panel. It is difficult to achieve a balance between displaying the 3D image and sensing the user input.

So, full-parallax 3D display system that is suitable for interactive 3D applications. Here, a number of images from a projector array are projected onto the retro-reflective screen. When a user looks at the screen through a half mirror, he or she, without the use of glasses, can view a 3D image that has motion parallax.

The screen shape can be chosen depending on the application, but it doesn’t require image correction according to screen shape. RePro3D has a sensor function to recognize the user input. It can be achieved by using its interactive features such as operation of 3D objects. Researchers are looking further to build a new version of RePro3D which will allow for larger visible 3D images to be display and also interacted with.

It is really a delighted one, doesn’t live us alone with its interactive characters. But one thing is those interactive characters only exist within the screen which make us feel a little lonely.

WristBand Concerns Your Health!!!!!

In this blog entry I’m gonna talk about the basic science which has got us all in to better shape. It is a health monitor that we can strap around our wrist, with its $199 heart. First when I saw this I thought it is nothing because we have seen many wrist watches with different features so adding on to it nothing can be the features. 
 
But now, this wrist can be seen different with its features, the company has revealed the design of its B1 Basis Band that will launch later this year. In this wrist the tracker has multiple sensors that measure our heart rate, calorie intake, sleep patterns and other metrics. It has a liquid crystal display and looks like a digital watch. This device can be connected to a web-based personal dashboard which lets us to view our heart rate, diet, sleep data, and more.

Keeping track on the data it makes recommendations for how we can improve our overall wellness, its latter part makes use of gamification, or game-like techniques. The updates can be shared with our friends and family over social networks and receives encouragement from them for our progress. I can say this will really helps the models, heart patients,… to keep track of their calorie’s and fat.

This wrist has developed for our nation’s health and wellness which is combined with rising healthcare costs, people are looking for smart, useful tools to help all of us to make better lifestyle choices. This data can be exported from our personal dashboard and it with a personal trainer or doctor. 

B1 Basis Band has a three-axis accelerometer that records movement and activity. It calculates metrics based on that data and shares it to the cloud. It has multiple-day battery life and it is light. The style and color of the strap can be changed and can wear it easily while running. 

For this basis, San Francisco has raised $9 million to date. It is available on the company’s website for pre-orders. So you also can pre-order it for your health concerns go for it.
