<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Design ! Ahh.. a feeling of freshness comes in my mind as I think about design inspiration. Inspiration through design is a method of rediscovering your passion from inside. Designs can truly show what you want and how you can find your inner true self.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">So how do you find this inner inspiration that can propel your idea and bring the best in you ?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I think I have the answer because I felt that there is something in a better design that soothe your eyes. Whenever I see a combination of colours or a better design it makes me feel that better designs exists and it is possible to make a better version of a product.</span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: medium;">Humour :</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I know how to make a better version of a product or to generate better ideas through design, but I do not know how to make a person or relationship better through designs ! :P</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: medium;">Designs are everywhere. We find them both in offline and online products. I will discuss about them one at a time. In this post however, I'm going to discuss about designs of online products.</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: medium;">The following points are not only meant to be read , but should also be practiced regularly. After sometime you will find that you have automatically generated an interest in design.</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">So how does design affect us ? Let's point them out . </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: medium;">1. The best combinations of colours and patterns inspires us.</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Website designs deals with colours , backgrounds, fonts, the logo , the images and videos that you are using and their placement in your website. If you are not doing them right, then your website design will not reflect the true brand image that you are looking for. Or worst it can kill your brand equity.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Mailchimp , Stripe , slack , growthhacker , pandanews are among the few whose websites have a good brand image.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">If you notice, each of these sites uses its own colours, backgrounds, fonts, logo/images/videos/content and places them right. Let me delve more into these factors that can make your website design better.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">What did you feel when you first saw these colours ?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">It is their combination that makes them look truly amazing. Right ? :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Contrasts show what is the best in this pallet that other colour combinations doesn't have.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Note that this is also true about us, the humans. For example, if you perform well in your class you are contrasting yourself among all the student in your class. So in short your achievements are what that surfaces the best in you !</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">This is what a true colour combination teaches us.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Finding the right combination of ideas will truly bring about a change to achieve your goals.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">If you are a content writer or a journalists , a blogger or a writer you know how much important it is to present your work to others. See the picture above and imagine how it would look if the fonts aren't there ?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">You got the answer I guess . :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Yeah , frankly it really sucks to think about that image without the fonts.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">So, it not only about colours but also about fonts that make a better design.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">So what are these patterns ? Patterns are design templates that you can put as a background image. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">For example if you see the growthhacker's website , you will find that they are using the following pattern. Now imagine the page without the background pattern ! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">This point is so obvious that I don't think I need to explain it. But content arrangements are one of the most important aspect of website design. Good designs shows how you can arrange your site content in an optimised manner. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">For inspirations about better designs you can spend some time in websites such as medium , panda.network , producthunt , slack or you can also visit <a href="http://inspirizone.com/" target="_blank">#inspirizone</a> .</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">This is true if you are targeting the wrong user with good designs. For example if you use some kind of fancy design while targeting readers or publishers or students, then that might not give you the optimum result.</span></div>

Hi. I'm designing and building a portfolio page as a part of a challenge in freecodecamp.com. I thought to share the development of the same so that someone else can learn from it.<br />
<br />
To start off, I decided to to use Bootstrap.css to build the webpage. This gave me an opportunity to learn and build a web page using Bootstrap .<br />
<br />
I hope you already know about Bootstrap . What I know about Bootstrap is that, it is a just a code library that helps you to style a webpage very quickly. Using platform such as Bootstrap reduces the task of build a modern webpage and reduces the time and money required to build it.<br />
Bootstrap libraries were originally built by Twitter engineers. They were using this platform internally , until they decided to make it open source so that people would get benefited.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
To be frank , I do not know how to use the Bootstrap libraries. Even I do not know how they actually works. However I would take help of tutorials and example available to code my webpage. All the links will be posted here.<br />
<br />
The web page must be clean and expressive. So I decided to have only three sections viz., About , Projects and Blog.<br />
<br />
I started with making a navigation bar or menu bar at the top. When I started coding the navbar for the first time. Codes weren't working so well. So , once I was able to make it work, I quickly saved it as a template , so that I can use it to code any future webpage.<br />
<br />
<div class="codepen" data-default-tab="result" data-height="268" data-slug-hash="LGNXWv" data-theme-id="0" data-user="o2">
See the Pen <a href="http://codepen.io/o2/pen/LGNXWv/">LGNXWv</a> by Soham (<a href="http://codepen.io/o2">@o2</a>) on <a href="http://codepen.io/">CodePen</a>.</div>
<script async="" src="//assets.codepen.io/assets/embed/ei.js"></script>
<br />
<br />
Once I completed the navbar basics. I did few tweaking to make it look good.<br />
<br />
Tried with deeper colors. #333.<br />
<br />
Finally I gave a shadow to the top menu bar.<br />
<br />
Finally I coded the second , the third and the footer.<br />
<br />
The beauty of Bootstrap is the ease of use and how simple it makes to develop a styled web page.<br />
<br />
Just by attaching classes to a "div" block , you can modify it in various ways. For example to centre an image you only need to add a class named "center-block". That's it.<br />
<br />
One more advantage of Bootstrap is that it makes your html components responsive. Responsive means that you can make an image or a paragraph to take it's own required shape with a change in the browser display size. What it means is that if you open your bootstrap webpage in a mobile, it can reduce the size of the image or even modify the whole page as you want it to.<br />
But for that you have to define your requirement with the screen sizes .<br />
For example if you watch my portfolio webpage in a mobile browser , the navbar changes it's shape.<br />
<br />
There are different predefined components in Bootstrap . For example I used panels to make thubmnails. Even you can add cool icons into your webpage. Bootstrap uses glyphicons a library of icons that you can use in your webpage. For example I used three of them as a icon to show the links of facebook , github and blogspot.<br />
<br />
The page now finally looks like this.<br />
<br />
<div class="codepen" data-default-tab="result" data-height="268" data-slug-hash="LGOZJw" data-theme-id="0" data-user="o2">
See the Pen <a href="http://codepen.io/o2/pen/LGOZJw/">Bootstrap Portfolio</a> by Soham (<a href="http://codepen.io/o2">@o2</a>) on <a href="http://codepen.io/">CodePen</a>.</div>
<script async="" src="//assets.codepen.io/assets/embed/ei.js"></script>
<br />
During this process I used plenty of external tutorials. I will write all the tools and tutorials by categorizing them.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<div style="font-size: small;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">From whatever knowledge and wisdom I gained from starting up a project , I found community building is the most important part of any startups. It is the single starting point from which customers , demand inflows and idea generations and product development occurs. It answers the big "WHY" to your startup idea.</span><br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Startups such as producthunt, slack, whatspp and other famous startups have successfully associated their services with the online community. They all began their startup journey by building a community, because , it is here where their products gets accepted.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, what is a community and what is its importance in the online startup world ?</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Community is the meeting point of the services and the people. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The whole internet can be hypothesized as a heterogeneous solvent solution, in which the solvent is not mixed with the solution homogeneously .</span></b></blockquote>
</div>
<div>
<b><u><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b></div>
<div>
<b><u><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here the solvent is the startup and the solution is the users spread around the whole internet.</span></u></b></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The internet is full of chaos, because these two entities aren't able to meet anywhere.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But once you connect them, businesses, transaction and trading take place. Community is such a point where businesses or startups are able to meet their future customers. It reduces the chaos in the internet by maintaining a directory of ideas , business through discussions.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Effectively community is a point where people come to find their future customers.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Or you can say that people who are searching for services finds their appropriate partner.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Producthunt is a classic example of this hypothesis.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You may ask if I knew all about this , why didn't I start a business like producthunt ?</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My simple answer would be, that I came to know about the importance of a community after producthunt was born. :D</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now the question remains what happens to the solvent solution ? :P</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You can hypothesize many other startups from this idea itself. </span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For example whenever you are letting the solvent and the solution to mix , you are creating a way to communicate between people and business or people to people or business to business.</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ok. I hope you have figured it out by now that </span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>people to business</b> means <b>forums </b></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">

<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Similarly, you can make out startup models out of this hypothesis .</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Isn't it interesting to learn that you can hypothesize your startup model before actually starting to think about it ? :)</span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Think of any other startups and see where it falls into Solvent and solution hypothesis.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A small ball , gravity and air.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let me imagine that a ball is stationed at a certain height from the ground. (I'm holding it with my hand)</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDve2bSjlNqIGcDtV3LsPMLldf54-lQILb1u6V2pYASW2v4KWpP-mEXNHyNe8q05IhF1Jm_s2opfg2mKGPRkZ-c2kGiqMRD7eCfJ_PSjJoZhHVprMu12eZr137TTrhBUBerDWAd7g0EKsX/s1600/ds1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="279" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDve2bSjlNqIGcDtV3LsPMLldf54-lQILb1u6V2pYASW2v4KWpP-mEXNHyNe8q05IhF1Jm_s2opfg2mKGPRkZ-c2kGiqMRD7eCfJ_PSjJoZhHVprMu12eZr137TTrhBUBerDWAd7g0EKsX/s320/ds1.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Why do I need to hold it ? Because the force of gravity is acting on the ball.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
Now let me think of an imaginary surface encapsulating a small isolated space around the ball as shown in the figure.<br />
<br />
Inside that space I have :</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The ball ( mass )</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Gravity (Force, because of which I have to keep holding the ball)</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
and air</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now, the environment variables says that if I stop holding it , the ball should fall on the ground.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, the ball is destined to fall.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Is it ?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Or</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Behind this simple fact, there is something else still unperceived, that can change the outcome.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Can this ball go up or can it go in any other direction instead of falling down ?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let me assume the probability of the ball falling on the ground as P1 , the probability that it will go in any other direction as P2 and the probability that it should go up is P3.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now P1 + P2 + P3 = 1</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The probability of any future event can never be equal to zero. In other words the occurrence of any future event is uncertain and lies between 0 and 1.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If this has to be true , then P1, P2 & P3 > 0</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But the external variable says that P2 and P3 are zero.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These two facts are conflicting each other.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, which one of them is true ?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Is it really the external environment or is there something else that can propel it up or in any direction ?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What if the density of the ball decreases and goes on decreasing until it is equal to the density of air ?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The ball should then float.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When the density further decreases the ball will go up .</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Or in other words in order to change the probability of the future incident the ball has to change itself.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Only if this is true, P2 and P3 can become non-zero entities.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
------------</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Can I draw any conclusion out of this ?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If I think myself as the ball, and the external environment as situations in my life, I can turn situations on my side. This is possible even if the situations is predicted to become worst.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is true. Sometimes due an impromptu event, which we can not predict, happens to change our life or at least affects our life. In such situations we do something different. We become innovative and perform differently.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The change should be from inside to outside and not the other way round !</div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">MeteorJS is a great point to start learning to build web app , especially if one is new to building building web apps.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The greatest advantage of writing apps in MeteorJS is that it uses a single programming language, Javascript , to code both the server side and the client side of the web application.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm not going into the details of how a web app works or how meteorJS eases the process of building a web app. I'l only write my road map to learn meteorJS.

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I haven't had time to read all these books and tutorials, but I have completed all the exercises from codeacademy.com and few books. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I will assume that you already have prior knowledge of Javascript.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>My road map till now is like this :-
</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"</span><b style="font-family: 'helvetica neue', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Where to start ?</b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">" </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First I went through the free blogs and tutorials on the web about MeteorJS. They are really good to read and informative. But there are so many of theme that you will not be able to decide </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. <b>Read and start practicing</b> MeteorJS from <a href="http://meteortips.com/first-meteor-tutorial/" target="_blank">http://meteortips.com/first-meteor-tutorial/</a> . </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The best book for beginners. The chapters are free you do not need to buy the total book like discovermeteor.com .
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I found people mention discovermeteor.com as the most deserving book to learn MeteorJS. So, I blindly bought the book. But, after I read 4 to 5 chapters , I found that this book has few gaps to fill for a total Meteor.js beginner. The same is quite visible if you go through the comments of people about any chapter. To me this book was not written from the learners point of view , but from a intermediate programmer point of view, who already knows the basics.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<b style="font-family: 'helvetica neue', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">People may not agree with me, but I would not recommend this book to start learning MeteorJS.</b><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. Read <a href="http://www.meteor-tutorial.org/book" target="_blank">http://www.meteor-tutorial.org/book</a> . Another completely free e-book that gives insights to MeteorJS. Just give a read and practise one or two exercises from here.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. Then start building real web apps by following the two video series from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/LevelUpTuts" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/user/LevelUpTuts </a>. The tutorials are have quality videos about Meteor.js and it is really grateful of them that they are offering these tutorials free of cost. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The journey to learn MeteorJS has been awesome. :)

<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. Designs speak about your brand.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
Brand defines your identity. With an amazing site design you can build up your own brand personality. Your brand reflects the quality and the type of product you are offering to the customers. Therefore, if your products are different from others you need to make sure your design reflects that difference, in order to make people understand your brand value.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. It tells how much you love design.</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>
People like design. Design is another language to them. If you can tweak your design then you can intelligently communicate your ideas to your future customers . Good design is nothing but a simple way to express your ideas, in such a way that people do not have to spend much time to understand the point.
If you love your customers then start creating lovely designs of your website.

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. Good designs are simply attractive. So, better designs will increase your conversion rate. </span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>
The time spent by the site visitors increases if they are attracted and find your design interesting and unique. Customer conversion rate may increase with a good design.
Even updating your website from an old design to a new one can show the visitors that your are about to update your services to give them a better experience.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. It indicates how much you keep yourself updated to the upcoming trends.</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>
Trendy site designs are what a designer should be acquainted with. Flat design and material design is the new comer. Most of the sites are adopting this designs.
As time changes people's choice over design changes. So with time the design has to change.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">5. From your site design people form an image about the quality of service that you will offer. </span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>
Quality of service is the integral part of a startup, especially who are in the service sector. There can not be any other better way to express your startup service quality than to use a better site design to make them feel about your service.
Just like one forms an impression in his or her mind when he sees someone for the first time. Similarly, your site visitors forms an image of the product or service quality that you have to offer.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>6. It defines your ability to understand a user's problem : a good design makes it all easy.</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>
Ease of use and the simplicity are the two building blocks of a good design. If your content is not ordered properly , people may not find any link between the texts, videos and images. The idea that you want to convey would not reach to the people.
A good design gives you a solution to these problems and helps users to get what they exactly want.
Once your make the process of work easy for them, it would reflect how much you think about your customers.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<br />
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The development of any startup starts from the root problems that we face in different stripes of fields in our daily life. Someone wants to fill the gap between the present <i>business - to - business</i> market or <i>business - to - customers</i> market, while someone wants to build a technology that can alleviate the existing problems or aid in software development. </span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br /></span>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">With every idea one adopts in order to realise it, one has to bring together every resources and personal expertise to start building the startup. The startup development therefore is initiated with an idea , the developers or managers of the startup and of-course the funders who helps to support the idea into development.</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The start-up system is now getting much more distributed among different types of people who belongs to different fields such as construction, DYI workers , freelancers , designers or any kind of non tech developers. Because now people have realised that you need not have to be a developer to build an online startup business. One can even start off with an idea to build life changing startups . And we already have beautiful examples for that. </span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Therefore, as a thumb rule, the product manager, the designer and the developer , the marketer and the funder are the ones who partake the job of building the startup.</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If we want to visualise it as a <b>GIVE</b> and <b>TAKE</b> rule , a startup system can be visualised as follows:- </span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">and finally the <b>STARTUP BUSINESS </b>:</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>TAKES</b> - the inputs from the idea specifications that people will love from the product guy and the developer </span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">

<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>GIVES</b> - Money/Fund</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now you can form a loop with all these elements. </span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Basically I wrote this to show you that all these people are interdependent and the problem with the present non tech developers lies here.</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The idea guy with few funds will not fit into this system or a developer with only the development skills will not fit in this system or a funder with only funds will not fit into this system. Therefore , the non tech developers (as they are filling up the startup space now) need to find a way to develop their idea MVP in an affordable price. But the problem lies in the high development price. A high development price is one of the main reason why today the funders exists. But yes the funders are sometimes helpful as a advisor. Because they generally gain experiences by building or rather I should say helping startups with their money.</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, what can be a possible way by which every intelligent and innovative ideas can be realised in an affordable way? Affordable doesn't really mean to shed off 7K within 10-12 weeks to get a buggy code. Affordable here means that both the developer and the product/marketing guy can sustain with their mutual needs without the need of having an investor.
</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Quite obviously we need a new STARTUP service that can solve the problem of existing STARTUP system itself. </b></span></blockquote>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, I thought why not make a platform, that is affordable to JUST DEVELOP EACH AND EVERY FEASIBLE IDEAS OUT THERE WITHOUT THE EXCESS BLOAT AND which fits into this startup system.</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Intermediate developers, who are in the learning phase can be engaged to build an MVP of the product idea that a non-tech person have, in order to build their portfolios and earn some money out of it. While the non tech person can help to validate his idea, invest time and money to visualise it and prove that the idea will work in the market. Finally we will be able to build the bare bones of the start-up, which one needs to get more funding for scaling it up and for few initial customers. The codes will be reviewed by some experienced developers , for which I think there is no dearth in this present market. We can also explore the concept of assembly.com here where the more effort you put the more equity or fund you earn.</span></div>
<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #2f3c4e; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This kind of service is already getting adopted in the startup premise and there are few examples too. But I wouldn't mention them here. However each of these existing startup building systems has its own shortcomings. Such as the product officially will not be yours, you need a spend minimum 7k to 10k dollars in order to build your version one product, there will be no privacy, etc.
This was just to start with, I'm exploring more ways to build this kind of platform where it eases the problem of building a startup MVP for a non tech founder in an affordable price.

<div style="color: #2f3c4e;">
Ideas are like breeze to me. They come and pass through my mind. :)
<br />
<br />
Everyone of us has innovative ideas to make our life easy and beautiful. But are we able to convert them into real products perceiving their importance ? Not every time though.
<br />
<br />
Don't let your innovation die. Write your ideas in a notebook, as you might forget your million dollar product idea. You can use <b>evernote </b>or a simple physical diary.
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<b>Idea validation</b><br />
The best way to realize the potential of your idea is to share and discuss it with other people. This step is know as idea validation. The product or service idea which is your brain child may look awesome to you, but sometimes it may not have any market value. Therefore before investing time and money to build your idea register in some online forum or a maker's or developer's community and discuss with people about the idea. Although it is not necessary to discuss all the features of your product, you can share any one of them that can attract people's interest.If your idea is great, people shall automatically take interest to work with you. I did this too after joining <b>reddit </b>and in <b>quora</b>.<br />
I would suggest not to take any decision in haste to build it. Take your time to think about the idea more (for at least 7 days). You will find that in this 7 days with each version of your idea, it has become more refined than the previous versions.<br />
<br />
Apart from using reddit and quora there are plenty of other services available online such as proved.co to validate your ideas. While many services and blogs will encourage you to build a landing page to validate a startup idea, I will suggest you not to start building a landing page before actually drafting the whole business plan. Using private network via <b>twitter</b> and <b>facebook</b> , online forums such as quora and reddit and services like <b>Mechanical turks</b> you can save a lot of money by building the right product that is market fit. Discussing with people is a much better way to gauge the demand and usability of a product than building a landing page before actually investing time and money on any project idea.<br />
<br />
One better way to validate your idea yourself, is not to think about it once you make an idea draft. Open the drafted idea again after 2 or 3 days. You will realised the true potential of the idea when you read it again.
<br />
<br />
If you find enough potential to realize the idea go for it. In case you find the potential of your idea is low, don't be sad. Because You just saved a lot of money that would have required to build it.
<br />
People are very skeptic that others will steal their ideas if they share it. Even I thought in the same way. But fortunately the world doesn't behave the way we think. I found that there is nothing special about my idea unless I execute it in a proper way. Because there are a lot of things involved between an idea and a complete product such as validation, market fitness, target customers, revenue potential, cost to build, after sales support etc. My idea is worth $0 until my product perfectly fits into the market and satisfies the customers fully. <b>Therefore no one will steal your idea.</b>
<br />

I too have few product and business ideas which I would want to build. I did my validation in the same way. <b>If you want, feel free to discuss with me a smaller version of your idea to see if it has market potential. I may help you to validate.
Or if you are an investor or a maker or developer looking for ideas to develop and market, I'm lucky to have you here. Feel free to contact me. I would want you to build mine.</b>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Definition</b> </span><br />
<div style="background-color: lightgrey; border-radius: 5px;">
<blockquote>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Artificial intelligence (AI)</b> <i>is the intelligence exhibited by machines or software. It is an academic field of study which studies the goal of creating intelligence.</i></span></blockquote>
</div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">AI is the power of cognitive thinking of a computer system. We call it an intelligent system because given the power to consciously think like a human, a computer can take logical decisions by learning from real life scenario just like us. If that is so, the difference would be that AI computer will do a complex task much faster than a human with very few errors.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Background</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However the <a href="https://medium.com/@shivon/the-current-state-of-machine-intelligence-f76c20db2fe1">current AI scenario</a> is not like what I said. Modeling a computer system which is able to act like us, think like us and crack complex problems is not possible unless we fully understand how does our BRAIN functions. In spite of the hurdles we have had many successful stories viz., Deep Blue defeated Garry Kasparov in 1997, Watson computer defeated a human in a quiz competition, etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is a mix of ideas around which many applications are now being build that technically aren't AI such as face recognition ( yes I call it automation NOT AI ) , big data analysis, etc. Because these ideas deal with logical actions based up on the program it was built for and not with the "deep learning" or "machine learning" or "conscious thinking" technique which is what AI means. Hence there is a prominent line of difference between automation and AI which we need to understand. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The area of "deep learning" that makes the computer more cognitive and adaptive is my area of interest. I think automation (eg Internet of Things) which is now becoming the next big thing now would finally make space for true AI the next big thing in future.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Application</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A smart application of true AI would be to model our conscious mind and store it in the soft form! :D
Yes . Imagine you are not alive anymore but your conscious mind is still there to interact with others. It can analyse, think of a problem and crack it just like you did. Every bit of information, ideas, visions of your life that you thought would be beneficial for humans will be available to the humans through it. In short your brain will live forever! Sounds just like the science fiction, isn't it? Remember <b>Man of Steal</b> where Kal-El could interact with his father Jor-El after his death?
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div onmouseout="this.style.background='white';" onmouseover="this.style.background='lightgrey';" style="background: white; border-radius: 5px;">
<b><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Project Idea</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A computer model which can mimic us and our thinking is very much possible to create with our present understanding of AI. We have seen successful creation of intelligent software like Siri and Watson which are getting more intelligent day by day. To start off one can think of modelling a simple system that can analyse small change is data sets and then adept to that change automatically. Or simply we can build a simple short code that can arrive to a solution without programming it to do the same. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>For eg.</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">INPUT - <i>Arriving to a value of <b>16</b> by any method from any two integers ;</i> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">OUTPUT - <i>f1(X,Y) , f2(X,Y) , f2(X,Y),... <br />
f1, f2, f3, .. are small codes that solves a problem to arrive a value of <b>16</b> from different sets of X and Ys. But each methods f1, f2, f3,.. of arriving to a value <b>16</b> are different.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The next step would be to write a software that can code an efficient algorithm from a given problem set. With these we can gradually learn how to train a computer system that reacts to different kind of situations. Finally we will be able to think of a system which can make intelligent fundamental decisions, ushering a path to our goal.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I found a blog article listing some great introductory AI courses from available coursewares like Edx, MIT courseware, Udacity, etc. <a href="http://www.skilledup.com/articles/free-artificial-intelligence-courses/">here</a>. These courses are great for beginners. If you think there are other great AI open courses available , add them in the comments. I will add them here.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While there are stripes relevant AI disciplines that normally people use to start with viz. control theory, linguistics, computer engineering, neuroscience, etc. One should directly start off with pragmatic AI project ideas without going through these academic approaches. I have my personal experience of learning NLP ( Natural Language Processing ) which concerns with the linguistic intelligence. I found that the method of learning all the tools of NLP and then going for a project is too boring. Instead one should start off with their own ideas and refer relevant books or tools to make prototypes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Therefore my humble request to all the hackers, makers and developers is to take the next step towards AI and to all idea developers to make their ideas open source. Because I think your ideas aren't alive or worth it unless you make them happen. I just started to make all my ideas open source. :)

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<br /></div>
There is a saying that <b>Old tricks always work because people tend to un-follow them as they become defunct</b>.
<br />
<br />
<b>Google has another easy way to save your private data</b>
<br />
<br />
I hope you remember very well when we came to know that <b>Google </b>saves our <b>google search history</b> by default. People started changing the google search settings which you can always "change" according to google.
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
And after disabling the Search History Settings you still think that you are safe. Right ?
<br />
<b>Well Google BY DEFAULT also syncs your BROWSER HISTORY , YOUR PASSWORD AUTOFILLS , EXTENSIONS , APPS , SETTINGS , THEMES and even YOUR LAST OPENED TABS directly from google chrome browser when your are logged in. And many people do not even know that. Your every piece of footprint gets saved when you login with your gmail account.</b> Now I'm not against the method of syncing your data to cloud. I'm against the way Google does it without informing us.
<br />
<br />
If you are using chrome then check it whether you are a victim of this trick. I'm already victim and do not think that my passwords are my private property any more.
<br />
<b>1. Click the Chrome menu button(Three horizontal lines) on the browser toolbar.</b> <br />
<b>2. Select <b>Settings</b> and click "<b>Google Dashboard</b>" link under "sign in" tab to see what have been already synced.</b> <br />
<b>3. Click advanced sync settings to change it .</b> <br />
<br />
Let me tell you where you are being tricked here. When you log in to your gmail account,Google automatically ensures your login to your chrome account and your syncing starts from there. But when you log out of your gmail account they do not log you out of the chrome browser and your account syncing continues. Now of course you can say that one can change his or her sync settings in order to stop it. But isn't it the responsibility of the service provider (here <b>Google</b>) to let us know how they are handling our private property ? Don't you think that today IT companies are taking it granted that we are happy with their service and while saving themselves only by showing a big list of cliche <b>"Privacy policy"</b> ?
<br />
Are we being tricked of our privacy ? Is the link of <b>"Privacy policy"</b> in the smallest font of the webpage down below is what we need to read every time before we press the <b>"sync"</b> button? Don't you think that IT companies should list all their services to show how they are exactly organising, maintaining and collecting our data ?
It is an open debate.
<br />
It is ironical that I have to write it in my blog which is also a service provided by Google. Because today when I found that google,whose service I have always revered, is saving my private data, its every move to save my privacy seems fishy.
<br />
<b>Leave a comment if this helped you.</b>
<br />
<b>Update:</b> I think google chrome now do not log in automatically after you log out of the chrome once. But if you are logged in, remember to ensure that google is updating your data according to your preference.
<br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<br /></div>
How many times a person can successfully stick to his/her own promises in their daily life ?
It happens quite a few times, when in spite of realizing what is right and wrong or what needs to be done in a particular situation, we end up tangentially into the wrong path. We often define our own philosophy or social and moral codes on our own, but fail to stick to them.
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<b>Social code:</b><br />
Humans are pretty much moral in deciding what is good or bad or what has to be done or said in our day to day situations that we face in life.<br />
Do we need someone to tell us that we should read more to get good marks or that to be a good entrepreneur you have to start ground up or that you should not play with your girlfriend's emotions or that you need medication if you are ill or even what it takes to be a good person?<br />
Our life has always been our own concern. We are able to think about our past, contemplate on anecdotes and analyze what went wrong in past. Therefore we can control our self by sticking and forming these social codes on moral grounds. These codes are nothing but our own conscience.
<br />
<br />
But are we always the best manager of our own life ? Are we able to say 'the right words' in exactly 'the right time' at 'the right place' to 'the right person' ?<br />
Things may convolute itself if we know the right answer to all these questions and still fail to do so.
It boils down to the fact that how much one is sincere to himself or herself.
<br />
Have you ever pondered what if we are so sincere to stick to our own commitments? Life would have been much different even if we were close enough to our own promises or social codes.
But we all are exceptions to this rule and we all get distracted by other things. Therefore no one can be infallible in their own deeds.<br />
Give it a thought and you will find that you have all the answers to the life's puzzle. You only need to focus and control yourself. That's it!<br />
:D
<br />
But wait..I have also seen people who are so sincere to their own views, thoughts and opinions that they end up liking themselves so much so that they stop giving values to others. People like them think themselves to be always right.
Therefore never put yourself on the highest pedestal. What you think is your social code which is now right to youself, may actually turn out to be wrong later!
<br />

<br /></div>
For someone the last year was full of jubilant memories to rejoice upon and for some it might be one of the most disappointed chapter in life. But at this point of time when we start analyzing what we gained and what we lost, the matter ultimately boils down to LOVE .<br />
Because when we look back to these ever lasting memories good or bad , there is only one answer to it .. LOVE.<br />
Please post your comments what ever you want good or bad. At least then I would feel that I haven't lost everything in my life. :|

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<br /></div>
It has been long long back that I had written my last post. I have always tried to post something new, but there was really no urge and respite from my daily life to express my feelings about my ups and downs in life.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Life can be best explained by a book of blank pages, everyday you add a new story in each blank page, only to see that the story line has changed in itself a lot on the next page. It is nothing but a testimony to the fact that everything like our childhood , love affairs , breakups, etc. are only ephemeral. They doesn't last long. Every incident in your life that makes a mark in your heart and mind shall only leave a thin layer of memory that will fade away once you move on. And so if you are now grieving for being hurt or if you are rejoicing in your success ,make sure that it is your transcendental state of mind. Neither the pain nor the euphoria lasts long.
I am saying these because I totally accede to this fact that every incident in my life has refined my thoughts and views and are still continuously training me for a better and stronger 'me'.
<br />
<br />
I hope that now you can interpolate that things have changed in my life and so I have some more thoughts and views in my back to share.
<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now a day it is not any more an addled task to find resourceful data to learn any of your subject of interest. With the umpteen data available in the form of videos and softcopies in the web of many topics of interests you can start off today itself learning what you wanted to learn even without spending a penny.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I recently had a wish to learn topics that is not related to my main subject.Which is basically data mining and natural language processing that are closely associated with artificial Intelligence. I always had interests in computer science since I started learning that in school. And still now my interest in that subject insists me to learn and get in touch of the newer technologies of computer science.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This was a tangential remark about my interest in computer science.But today I would like to reserve my thoughts to open data source that are easily available in web. Many a person does not even know about such online data repositories that are freely available online. Later I will mention some websites from where you can get such materials.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The amount of data and material will differ from topic to topic. Like more materials are available for the computer science subjects than mechanical engineering. Although the availability of learning material is scarce for many of the important subjects, but the open source communities who believe in egality want to share knowledge with others. And so you if you are interested in any topic and haven't got any opportunity to pursue that subject, you can easily practice and delve deep into that topic with the help of these online tutorials. Although these online sources will not give you a certificate of the programme, still they will be a good refresher to some topics for which good books are rarely found.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I found these tutorials pretty handy because they seem to be composed by famous educationalists who keeps track of the on-going changes in today's technology and consults a variety of books.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But the materials available are still not sufficient to cover each topic of any subject. So if you really want to delve deep into the subject you can buy a reference book for that. These will only serve as a guide and usher the path to follow. Please remember that this kind of learning technique does not involve direct interaction with the tutor and therefore completely different from the conventional pedagogy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Please do not blame me if you do not find your topic of interest in the given sites. As I have already told earlier that the open source data community is growing day by day and you can expect a lot more data available in future. Therefore if you do not find your topic now you may find it latter. Also search the internet for any other such websites as there may be some other new site coming out with more new learning materials.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well these are the sites from where you can search and find your topic of interest. :-</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hi friends and to all my online lovers. Let me start with a small quote </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"<i>The smartphone revolution is under-hyped, more people have access to phones than access to running water. We've never had anything like this before since the beginning of the planet.</i>" </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">- by <b>Marc Andreessen</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well I don't have to prove it right once more, as we all revel in our new found apps and newer OS versions in our everyday life. Mobiles, smartphones, tablets, trans-tablet, etc. are becoming our favourite device without which life would seem to be stagnant. The reason behind this is the utility they offer beyond portability. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes I am talking about the Avant-grade apps without which a smartphone is nothing but a small piece of brick.Apps do their bit in every way to make our life sociable, delightful, easy etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today may be more than 30 percentage of apps are social networking apps. Hence to push another in the same consumer market one has to develop something which is beyond a killer app!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKyNkAW7tB3Gkq-NOLByvQYpr2T7UMz1TuqlJmlqhde8IG5bpphljTCwKRgoTH7K2TPCwlnjPKZVernkrVzDo0QzA4eovC0usex4-hpw1DOibBS2RGCvzy2WG7mGn1qLYuoHJWuSAQq0fj/s1600/Untitled.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="140" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKyNkAW7tB3Gkq-NOLByvQYpr2T7UMz1TuqlJmlqhde8IG5bpphljTCwKRgoTH7K2TPCwlnjPKZVernkrVzDo0QzA4eovC0usex4-hpw1DOibBS2RGCvzy2WG7mGn1qLYuoHJWuSAQq0fj/s320/Untitled.png" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After BBM, to me "Whatsapp" is the most hyped and most favourite chatting app with all stripes of sharing facilities. But shortly I came to know about a new app called <b>"WeChat"</b> with almost same but some added facilities. I though why not share about this app. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I have android phone, I downloaded the app from google play. Downloading was smooth and got it installed without any hitch. I quickly launched the app which asked me to register either with your mobile number or with your Facebook profile. I chose the mobile number registration as I will automatically come to know if any of my friends in my contact list are also here or not. You can even log in with your facebook profile if you do not wish to make your mobile number public and this was the first “COOL” thing I liked about it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had contemplated the app to be more or less like Whatsapp, may be with some changed user interface as with the case with other similar kind of apps.But I was really astounded with the <b>"COOL"</b> features it has inside. Yes <b>"WeChat"</b> has totally re-invented the communication application and feature wise it is way beyond "Whatsapp". </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You must be having scruples with my "WeChat-the-killer-app" vibe. But there won’t be any soon believe me!!There are a whole lot of good features with a bright default background interface. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>First</b> let me talk about the chatting features. Conversations have threaded views and you can group chat with friends. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The "COOL" factor:</b> You will be able to share any applications beside photos, videos etc. All the communication features has been defined in a small bar, just tap and use it: Which is not like the case in Whatsapp. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Second:</b> You can add photos in your defined album which your friends can see and comment on it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The "COOL factor”:</b> I never found this kind of facility in any chatting apps. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Third:</b> The "<b><i>look around</i></b>" feature. Once you tap it, the app will search if any of your friends are nearby using your location data. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The "COOL factor”:</b> I never found this kind of facility in any chatting apps. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Fourth: </b>The “<b><i>Shake</i></b>”!! feature. :D IT IS AWESOME, BELIEVE ME! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Shake your phone and you will get to know about persons and new friends who are also shaking their phone at the same time. Last time when I did that, I met a friend from china!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The "COOL factor”:</b> I never found this kind of facility in any chatting apps. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Fifth:</b> “<b><i>Drift Bottle</i></b>”. The idea is to seal your message inside a bottle, and throw it into the sea (Not the real sea, but a pool of messages).Someone may pick it up and become your next friend. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The "COOL factor”:</b> I never found this kind of facility in any chatting apps! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>WeChat</b> gives more freedom to users to have new friends with the "Shaking" and "Drift Bottle" feature. I really appreciate this step as other chatting apps restrict users to communicate within their friends group. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Wechat</b> has named and modelled all these features as different modules (Plugins) within the app which means that if you don't want a particular facility like "Drift Bottle" or "Moments" or "Video Calls" you can simply uninstall them. Thus you can modify the app the way you want to use it. Wechat has a cloud-based service to retrieve and backup your contact list and that too encrypted.Hence there is not fear for data loss.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The only thing which I don't like about it is that it does not have any option for deleting the account and it is still not popular in our peninsula .Because whenever I used the "Drift Bottle" and "Shake" app, I always met people from China and Indonesia. Otherwise I love this one. I also thought it to have changeable skins and fonts modification facilities. But it doesn't have any. May be in the coming version they will incorporate these functions. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope this app will have more users from Indian peninsula and become popular world-wide with some more <b>COOL</b> features . </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Wechat</b> works on iOS, Android and Symbian devices.You can download this app from <a href="http://wechatapp.com/">wechatapp.com</a> for free.
</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Update </b>: Guys, I have been working very hard for few months to build a new website called <a href="http://www.livehacks.tv/" target="_blank">livehacks.tv </a>.</span><br />

<br />
Hi everyone, I have been trying to understand the basic difference between a smartphone and a tablet. I found both of them to be more or less equal in all respect except the screen size. But I still don't understand the usability of tablet when there is apparently no hardware and software difference between these two devices. Therefore I framed ten (10) simple questions to understand it better. I request you all to take 2 mins to fill up the following questions and help me .<br />
<br />
I will surely give out the collected data in my blog after I get ample answers.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<b>Please note , I have created this survey not for any profit but as an endeavor to understand the trend of present smartphone and tablet market.</b>
<br />
<br />
<b>You will see the live analysis of this survey down below. The results speaks a lot. Just fill your views and see.</b>

<b>Results of the survey</b>
Thank you for your feedbacks. Although the number of feedbacks are less , still you can guage apparently what does a smart-phone consumer wants.
See it with your own eyes. I already have an idea to create something based on this survey. :)

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hi everybody , I was astounded by the overwhelming feedbacks of my last post about "Share PC internet with android phone through wifi without using any software.".
I therefore want to help you farther by showing an alternative way to create Microsoft shell commands. This would be helpful for those who are not familiar with Microsoft's Command Prompt. I have shown the steps with small views to demonstrate the whole process.
It is very simple and you can just double click on the shortcut to run any cmd command.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Step 1:</b>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Right click on the desktop and create a shortcut.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHLdyp234rPxWW7262x0rageh06QKuYNK2F3CG33Wy1peKbs4Yv6aUMfevdKmGRipLrt0GcgUhoIHoA-u2zSns16MavBCpD83DVOOCQfSTi-fLPMGI1jq-UpA-Cnm515Mj1qzZn7NOXYLp/s1600/as1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="206" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHLdyp234rPxWW7262x0rageh06QKuYNK2F3CG33Wy1peKbs4Yv6aUMfevdKmGRipLrt0GcgUhoIHoA-u2zSns16MavBCpD83DVOOCQfSTi-fLPMGI1jq-UpA-Cnm515Mj1qzZn7NOXYLp/s320/as1.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
</div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Step 2:</b>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once you create a shortcut, a small window opens up. You need to type the required command script on that blank.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now if you want to run a script like <b>"netsh wlan start hostednetwork"</b> then type that in the given field.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheZh7fetUPXMoQqg1dtUfEPU-teWP2vz-taL8iorreOLeRhatk32zehqOUsA2T-zHFta1W2AhIOq1oeDdwwXS5ZC8IXL5K3fMhVgU2LHFT-t_xOLHuMkpTZUR8C24UNbcqtT1GxY7TyILB/s1600/as2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheZh7fetUPXMoQqg1dtUfEPU-teWP2vz-taL8iorreOLeRhatk32zehqOUsA2T-zHFta1W2AhIOq1oeDdwwXS5ZC8IXL5K3fMhVgU2LHFT-t_xOLHuMkpTZUR8C24UNbcqtT1GxY7TyILB/s320/as2.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Step 3:</b>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now give it a name. For me it is <b>"Start.exe"</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Step 4:</b>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>
To verify whether it will runs your command or not, right click on the shortcut and watch the Target field. It contains the path of your command.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtFg0YNcEY5eJIzYNJugQtdJzalhcxdPjjNCa8hwD0JpDOCcr2KK63DQlieJTCUeN3Ck5qTJlINN0gwNuzsVFyrMmWJs79f5mO8cEuasLNbNz2Wc5FE0l052gKaLkU7Zk6w4i_da6nTlTd/s1600/as5.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtFg0YNcEY5eJIzYNJugQtdJzalhcxdPjjNCa8hwD0JpDOCcr2KK63DQlieJTCUeN3Ck5qTJlINN0gwNuzsVFyrMmWJs79f5mO8cEuasLNbNz2Wc5FE0l052gKaLkU7Zk6w4i_da6nTlTd/s320/as5.jpg" width="311" /></a>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Similarly create another two files with commands <b>"netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=funkywifi key=password123 keyusage=persistent "</b> and <b>"netsh wlan stop hostednetwork"</b> named as <b>"Configure_WiFi"</b> and <b>"Stop"</b> respectively.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You can change you Wifi-access point name and password by changing <b>ssid</b> and <b>password</b> parameter in the <b>"Target"</b> field as shown in the above pic.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now to run a command as administrator , simply right click and choose <b>"run as administrator"</b> option.
Hope this would help you further.

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I just wanted to share some tips to "Share PC internet in android mobiles through wifi" or "reverse Tethering" without using any external software neither in your PC nor in your android phone. Yes you can do this on your own without spending money on purchasing a wifi router, :).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Normally Tethering means sharing your mobile data connection to some other devices like laptop or PC. But you must have thought of using your broadband internet connection in your wifi enabled device where no hard wired LAN connection is not possible.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I know you are searching for only those steps to get this done. But let me discuss something before telling, that will help you to comprehend the same.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I think Android devices have been previously configured for peer to peer connection (connecting to another android device) and to share data connection from a wifi hotspot where many android or other wifi enabled devices connects to the shared router.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You can find both these type of connections in you android device in :-</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>(a)</b> <i>Settings>Wireless and network>Wi-Fi Direct settings</i> -> This is equivalent to peer to peer network.To me wi-fi peer-to-peer implementations by creating adhoc connections is same as Wi-Fi Direct. You can opt for this type of network only to build a small, all-wireless LAN quickly and spend the minimum amount of money on equipment. Like sending songs or anything else from one device to other android devices. But sharing internet connection of your PC ,using this is not suitable according to me because what I found, Ad-hoc networks cannot bridge to wired LANs or to the Internet easily without a gateway or bridge.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>(b) </b> <i>Settings>Wireless and network>Wi-Fi Settings</i> -> This one is for accessing a wifi hotspot through an access point.This one is more suitable for sharing Internet Connection of your PC to one or more devices without purchasing a wifi router. ;-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now I will tell you step by step how to share your PC internet.</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>1.</b> Go to start button of win 7 or vista and type 'cmd', then right click on the 'cmd.exe' application and click on 'Run as Administrator' option.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sorry for the small pics. Please click on them to see the enlarged view.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>2.</b> Now set up a wifi access point with name 'funkywifi' with a password 'password123'.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For that you have to type the following command :</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=funkywifi key=password123 keyusage=persistent</b>
</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Note: You can set any name to this access point by replacing 'funkywifi' with your required name.Similarly you can give any password/security key instead of 'password123' that must be a string with 8 to 63 ASCII characters.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If keyUsage is specified as 'persistent', the security key will be saved and used when the hosted network is started again in future. Otherwise it will be used only when the current or next time the hosted network is started. Once the hosted network is stopped, the temporary security key will be deleted from the system. If keyUsage is not specified, it is persistent by default.If you want to keep the password temporary replace 'persistent' with temporary'.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>3.</b> Once the command executes successfully. You can check your newly created hosted network configuration by typing the following on the same command prompt window:</span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">netsh wlan show hostednetwork</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now that you have configured the access point network, follow step no. 6 to share your broadband or lan connection.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>4.</b> Now that you have configured a hosted network named 'funkywifi', you need to start it by the following command on the same command window:</span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">netsh wlan start hostednetwork</span></b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now you can check the same by opening either 'Network and sharing center' or by clicking connection button in right corner of taskbar.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>5</b>. To stop the connection type the following :</span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">netsh wlan stop hostednetwork</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">[Remember everytime you do this , all these commands except the commands in step 3 and 5 needs administrative privilages.Hence you should follow the first step for doing the same.]</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8nHIJNOophpKwf3UedPEpfRBVJPzu2U-UfIhZNqOUzzgbh0nldxSozqje8Z5K8fL0bPdZsamaYbm8s9BbbPDLWnSDI3s8XpHunzF5tBFGZdKBnDEYUBsrBNAs7pIykZ0i2Rkr3zCZOrXj/s1600/photo3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="164" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8nHIJNOophpKwf3UedPEpfRBVJPzu2U-UfIhZNqOUzzgbh0nldxSozqje8Z5K8fL0bPdZsamaYbm8s9BbbPDLWnSDI3s8XpHunzF5tBFGZdKBnDEYUBsrBNAs7pIykZ0i2Rkr3zCZOrXj/s640/photo3.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you don't like to type all these lines every time you start your network, then skip steps 2,3,4 & 5.
You can save the three commands as discussed in steps 2,4 and 5 in three different batch files , which can do the same task if you run them as administrator.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you are not familiar with batch files then simply create desktop shortcuts of these commands by following <a href="http://bloggersoham.blogspot.in/2012/09/create-shortcut-for-microsoft-shell.html">these</a> steps.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To do this using batch files, type the command of my 2nd Step i.e, "<b>netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=funkywifi key=password123 keyusage=persistent</b>" in Notepad.exe and save it as "<b>sethostednetwork.BAT</b>".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Similarly save "<b>netsh wlan start hostednetwork</b>" as <b>start.BAT</b> and "<b>netsh wlan stop hostednetwork</b>" as '<b>stop.BAT</b>".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now to creat or configure a new connection you can right click on "sethostednetwork.BAT" file icon and click on 'run as administrator'.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjACQJ7jg-F-mIEO8WMbEUX2qsDolyViEvv5zo1wSUNJIOm1OmZa3aYKuYc4mWvrMKWBTLmbXKm3npFaFdD7DnwVr7qcQZ9XJOTPkvI_MyqnakcE9oJY5kA0thc_CrhX7FhwmJWwtfmleYU/s1600/icons.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="216" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjACQJ7jg-F-mIEO8WMbEUX2qsDolyViEvv5zo1wSUNJIOm1OmZa3aYKuYc4mWvrMKWBTLmbXKm3npFaFdD7DnwVr7qcQZ9XJOTPkvI_MyqnakcE9oJY5kA0thc_CrhX7FhwmJWwtfmleYU/s400/icons.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To start the connection right click on "start.BAT" file icon and click on 'run as administrator'.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To stop the connection right click on "stop.BAT" file icon and click on 'run as administrator'.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you want to change username and password just right click on the "sethostednetwork.BAT" file icon and click on edit option. After replacing the existing username or password save it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>6.</b> Now this is an important step without this you can't share your laptop internet. For doing this go to 'Network and sharing center' and click on 'Change adapter settings'. If you find it difficult to find it, just type 'Network and sharing center' as search phrase.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>7.</b> Once you can see your hosted network in 'Network and sharing center', go to Settings>Wireless and network>Wi-Fi Settings in your android device , and tap on "Turn on Wi-Fi" button.

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We have every resources, dexterity and efficacy to find solution to everyday problem with the advancement of technologies. Varied intelligent and innovative technologies along with fully automated machines which can perform tasks or can even attain feats which humans are incapable of are commendable.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">People are happy using them during their everyday chores and in other difficult tasks. Essentially a piece of tech device encapsulates different combination of identical parts with unique properties that makes an idempotent product. But it seldom happens that we push ourselves to artificially fabricate or find out a single piece of material (continuous body) whose characteristics matches almost with the required product features. A single natural or synthetic piece of body that has those features already installed in it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Although envision of such a feature packed material is vague at what resources and technologies we have. Nano technologist and biologist are already in search of such synthetic material to imitate motions which are fundamental aspects of a device. The operation of such device is accompanied by a sequence of complex tasks. The more complex task a device does the task of fabricating and analyzing the same gets more cryptic. Therefore it is expedient to make a complex system simple by replacing a bunch of mesh, circuit and sensors with a single piece of material.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The most advantageous thing of using a continuous body is that properties become intensive .Even if the physical property varies with direction or to some degree mathematical expressions and simulations of the same can be done easily. This precludes a detailed study of all components that is required to make it. For devices which replicates a system of different electronic devices the error attributed to every parts gets added, which entails a total constant error.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To perceive the idea, consider a flat piece of material that can be bended easily and can change its body colour with some other parameter variation.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A combination of them gives us a flexible screen, which has already been commercialized as an ebook reader and newspaper reader.(you can google it).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I found these videos.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=srS3Y6Ofhwc&feature=endscreen"></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wmi48ilBq7k">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wmi48ilBq7k</a> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Although I don’t know about the exact status of commercializing it but it seems plausible with the recent advancement in metal composite technologies. Such displayable objects are essentially a single piece of material with the required features.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The composite material which are synthesized in laboratory acts like sensors which can respond to some external input (like voltage ).An example of the same is Ionic Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC).The composite has an innate capability of responding to voltage differences with slight movement/motion.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hence the motion imitated by the composite can replicate a similar actuator with complex connections between two or more parts.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For example :-- </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwYSN1Jvzd5YzHQwzApgLdd6c_5DNvYauE-ND0zwA-bTVWsZuN8W4Scu3rAi2IwfhLRoX6YGT2raCkcz4oa_DoKmMnT74cEVoBw9_4GZpl18ntEPicILVS_fcqTQdX3lt0DGD0z0HsE1QJ/s1600/pic1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="171" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwYSN1Jvzd5YzHQwzApgLdd6c_5DNvYauE-ND0zwA-bTVWsZuN8W4Scu3rAi2IwfhLRoX6YGT2raCkcz4oa_DoKmMnT74cEVoBw9_4GZpl18ntEPicILVS_fcqTQdX3lt0DGD0z0HsE1QJ/s320/pic1.png" width="320" /></a>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A motor connected to an arm would generate the same motion. Although technically speaking this system is more robust than the sensor one. But keeping those extra details (like power input , moment , etc) aside the simplicity and imitation of the metal composite is quite appreciating.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let me share one more piece of info which I got while skimming an ebook on ancient secret technologies.</span><br />
<blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"In 2005 Professors Victor Podolskiy and Evgenii Narimanov and graduate student Leonid Alekseyev, working at Oregon State University and Princeton University, respectively, announced their discovery that a thin layer of monocrystalline bismuth exhibited a negative index of refraction at microwave frequencies,making it only known, naturally occurring substance to exhibit such a property.They sandwiched a 4.5-micron-thick layer of monocrystalline bismuth between two metal plates,as shown in figure."</span></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The composite will act as microwave obstruction or arrester for a particular range of microwave frequencies.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Similarly a wide range of different stripes of materials can be combined to form bodies of various featured composites.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Science and technologies are back bone to these kinds of new findings. One by one it has gifted us those which we previously thought to be mythical. Flying machines like helicopters and aeroplanes , submarines, space travel and many other vague ideas as mentioned in early literature and whose instances are even found in ancient arts are no more myths .</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The nano technology and material science of science of metal composites are taking larger leaps to a more advanced world. This augurs that more refined ideas on inventing newer composite bodies are yet to come , which can replace complex systems with single composite bodies.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am not an avid lover of material science nor that I am a student of Material Science.I only wanted to share my point of view of replacing complex systems with a tantamount body.

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
It has been days since I have written my last post. Although I don't blame myself for not writing because I seldom feel of blurting out my feelings after getting hold to some poignant & touching events.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Together with that, a blogger inside me doesn't send a fillip in my mind to write something apart from my schedule. But when I read about the blog posts from various sources like blogadda and blogs from blogger.com update of different stripes and tastes, something intrigues me about writing. And today I am too ardent to share my emotions of burning a cigarette two inches away from my mouth.
Yes the figment of imagination after you light a cigarette. Sometimes a darn thing can also light up your mind.You tend to forget about the detrimental effect of the stench. I think it is this whimsical feeling that people are fond of when they puff out smokes. I am not really fond of cigarette nor I am a chain smokers but being a gregarious and fun loving person I have tasted it in my adolescence. It hardly takes one or two days for a cigarette lover to hold a fag and learn lighting it and holding it like a pro. But when you do so it feels great.<br />
<br />
I never thought of delving into the feelings that occur to me when I light it up and continue shortening it. It happens with everyone who does not smoke frequently, may be because of his own consciousness or because of his lover or because of some other reasons. But not to the chain smokers who take it as their prescribed dose. They always enjoy inhaling the unseen smokes but never delve into thoughts that occur to them. I had this feeling when I light up a cigarette while returning from market alone. It happened again yesterday when I thought of smoking which I rarely do when I am alone. A sudden urge of quenching my wish gasped me, a manly feeling of holding a cigarette with a brightly burning tip. I bought a cigarette and looked at it with a nascent feeling of another blissful experience. With a couple of flunking strokes of match sticks I finally burned the tip of tobacco stick.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6S2IzdxFa5mTVhspxI3RwGwAgFkvIes_q7BDa8fq7YLZwW16j0IhydX2nPaJCCwsJwDXzRe-H1rblxgVcC55YRAsPIA6Qf89rZCDgU-uq0DVkun4r4az0r-DDZhCW8ghOIgFh0SZdHIfe/s1600/cig2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6S2IzdxFa5mTVhspxI3RwGwAgFkvIes_q7BDa8fq7YLZwW16j0IhydX2nPaJCCwsJwDXzRe-H1rblxgVcC55YRAsPIA6Qf89rZCDgU-uq0DVkun4r4az0r-DDZhCW8ghOIgFh0SZdHIfe/s400/cig2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I started to inhale and puff out smokes holding it between my two fingers. With every breath the reddened glowing tip caught my glance. It was so much contrasting in the dark background of a road that a complacent feeling of happiness breezed through me. There is no one to nag me not to smoke or anybody who would stop me from doing it. I took a glance at the path of the blown out smoke particles that was locked inside my trachea. They took a whizzing path and mixed into the air without any signs of existence. A satiate smugness filled inside me just like the short-lived smokes that will also not last longer. Yes, as every piece of tobacco stick entails, a final inhalation, like a last laugh, last breath or last piece of happiness, I took a longer breath to make it shorter. I enjoyed every bit of last coy before it lasted any further.<br />
<br />
There was still an incomprehensible feeling of happiness in me but it refuted the notion that cigarettes are only helpful to burn your sorrow, mistakes,blames,penitence and all your regret for wrong doings. It can also rejuvenate you, resurrect & instill a completeness in your mind. It tells you that you are capable of brooking a more contentious or difficult situations to fetch something extra.<br />
