Treasure Web Content you like at one place - "The Evernote"

We all are web visitors and tends to visit the informative web pages very often and obviously when we visit the informative web pages we always in the greed of copying the nice content for our future use or for the educational purpose. Each one of us saves the content from the web pages according to our priorities. This was the old methodology to save the content from the web. 

Suppose you have saved some content into your computer and you are somewhere outside where you need to have a reference of that but unfortunately you do not have internet and your computer then what will you do? You are lost!!!!

For these kinds of problems, an innovative mind has created "evernote". It is a software for the windows and Mac and application for android, ios and window phones. Mean to simply say that it is a platform independent application that you can use any where and any time. 

This is an application which works offline as well as online in which you can save your important text notes, web content, photos, audio note, video note, pdfs and any other sort of documents. When you input the data into evernote it saves the data on the local system and when you connect it to the internet your data gets sync with your online account. For this you need to have an evernote id that is free of cost but for just 60 Mb of data. If you need more data you have to pay but that is also very nominal. Once you have synced your account your data is available on all the devices to which you have installed evernote. In addition to that evernote also provides browsers plugin by the name web clipper which can clip the content of the web you want and you need not to copy and paste the data it automatically clips and save the data, you just have to select the data. In this way you can efficiently manage the web content that you need. 

Evernote also gives you a unique email id with every account so that you can mail the content to any one from within the evernote. You can also share the content privately with in the evernote with other members registered on the evernote.

Climb the Cloud

These days you all must be listening/reading about the Cloud Storage here and there but do you often use cloud computing? I don't think so!!!! Cloud is given the name for this type of computing because clouds are every where, where ever you go in any part of the world. So this is a technology that enables you to store and compute the data on the cloud, it means you can store, retrieve and compute the data any where. 

This technology is based upon the internet because it is available in almost in every part of the world and so does clouds. You can use the internet to store the data online on cloud storage and can use the data any where you need. In this case you need not to save your data on multiple locations, carry pen drives, use external hard drives and the most important benefit of this is that your data gets protected from hard drive and window crashes which is very much common. Moreover, the replication of data also get reduced and you need not to buy many storage medias and keep safe with you. You just need to have a password and that to in your mind.


Many cloud storage services provides you free of cost data storage but a few Gigabytes only. Its simple phenomenon, the more data you need to store the more you pay but still it is one of the cheap and safe mechanism to store the data. The most popular Google what we think is just a search engine give a 15 GB drive with every email id and in spite of that, it gives you computing facility also so that you need not to install basic software on your system. You can create and edit your presentations on the way to a trip with just a smart phone or with a tablet and you need not to have MS Office installed in the device. You can read more about functionality of Google drive here

So guys forget the pen drives and external storage devices and switch on to cloud for better way of storage and safety of data.

Think Different.....

This is the story of a boy named Nishant who has made his own prototype called "Automatic Electric Shock Tripper" and won the first prize for that in "Innovation Jockeys - Season 2" conducted recently in Bangalore by Accenture and sponsored by Yahoo. There were more than 5000 participants from different engineering colleges among which the 17 year boy from Sona College of Technology bagged the battle and now he is going to spend one week in U.S at the research center of Accenture. 

Now let us have a look at the innovation of Nishant - "Automatic Electric Shock Tripper". He has made a prototype to make people safe whenever there is a breakage in main electric supply lines or there is leakage of electricity. 

In this prototype the transformer will turn off the connection to the wire that got cut much before it falls or when there was heavy electricity leakage. 
There is an automated system call functionality that will shoot up a voice message to the line officials and do tell them the nature of the problem. The tripper will cost somewhere around Rs. 10,000 which is very much economical. 

This is brief about the innovation of the creative mind Nishant. Insipte of that i also want you to know something more about him as he has made more than 30 product by using electrical and information technology and has seven patents to his name and the 8th one is on its way.
