Street view maps in INDIA-Wonobo.com

Some of the impressive features of Wonobo's main street view include a map on the left side and the street view on the right or you can have a full-screen street view and keep the map as a small box at the bottom. And you can click or drag on the street view to go down a street. It also offers you to create a pictorial storylines and guides, for example you could create a 'Sachin Tendulkar guide' that shows everything from the nursing home he was born in to the house he lives in now. The website also brings you articles relating to the city once you select it.

Previously the company created map content for others such as Navteq, Nokia and Bing, and was involved recently in creating digital maps of Dubai, Mecca and Medina.


As of now Wonobo street view is being launched for 12 cities— Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Surat, Jaipur, Costal Goa, Kolkata, Agra, Pune. The remaining 42 cities will be launched over the following weeks.


Wonobo is also working with the Indian tourism department to showcase heritage sites, something that Google is also now doing, though it is yet to get permissions for wider street views.

Awesome Innovations From Google in 15 years.

1 Android

Google has left its mark in the Smartphone world as 80 percent of the Smartphones today are powered by the company’s Android Operating System. Even though Android is not an original product of Google as it acquired the company that made the OS, Google treated the OS as its own by adding its innovative touch to the software. Initially Android was meant to serve as an OS for digital cameras, but Google turned it into mobile software much before Apple came out with its iPhone.
Today, Android OS with its various versions that are named after a dessert or sweetener, is one of the most popular softwares to be used because of its easy interface, wide range of free apps and its open source nature that gives users option to update their Android versions on their devices for free. Because of this, Android is popularly adopted as OS on mobile devices from companies like Samsung, Huawei, ZTE, Micromax and Xiaomi.

2 Internet balloons

Google recently launched its Project Loon, where it sent out air balloons strapped with internet antennas into the stratosphere at a height of 20km. This project was launched to connect the developing countries where internet connection is weak or almost nil. Through this, Google aims to provide 3G speed via internet balloons which covers an area of 1,256 sq m each.

3 Chromebooks

The internet company has set its foot in the electronic world yet again with laptops called Chromebooks. These laptops are meant for the ‘connected generation’ and runs on Goolge’s Chrome OS and does not support any applications made for Windows and Mac operating systems. Chromebooks have a built-in media player and internet browser. The price for Chromebooks starts at $250, which is cheaper than most tablets and laptops

 4 Google driver-less cars

The automobile world is said be greeted by the next big thing in the form of Driverless cars, Google’s proud innovative venture. This started as an idea from Google’s X Lab and these driverless cars are currently being tested by the company in Nevada, Florida and California in the U.S. These cars are still in testing phase and there are no plans yet to commercialize them but reports say that Google may soon roll out unmanned Robo-Taxi to ferry people.

 

5 Moto X’s voice recognition

Google’s Motorola division came up with Moto X Smartphone that consists of X8 mobile chip which helps give an enhanced user experience. This chip-set is made up of a 1.7GHz dual-core CPU and a quad-core Adreno GPU. The thing that sets this chip apart is its natural language processor, which enables the phone to understand what the user means and contextual awareness processor, which helps the device to know when to turn itself to silent more or which app to open when the phone is held in a certain way. This makes the Moto X to be always alert and even when it’s sleeping if a user gives a voice command like “Okay Google”; the phone wakes up and performs the task. 

 6 Google Street View

In 2007, Google started the Street View project and over the years, the project has been intercepted with several innovative features that set it apart from its competitors. Google street view option comes along with Google maps, and when selected it provides a panoramic, 360 degree street view imagery of various places around the world. Street view also comes in a 3D version. Using street view, users can see the photos from around the world right from their desktops, mobile devices and also can access it on Nintendo Wii U 
 

 7 Google Fiber

Google Fiber is an internet service which was launched in 2011 and provides a data packet speed of 1GB per second. This service was first rolled out in Kansas and then to Missouri, Texas and Utah in the U.S. Google Fiber comes out in different variants. The basic version costs $70 and has 1TB cloud storage while the subscription with TV service offers 1TB data on Google drive, 2TB digital recording and a free Nexus 7 tablet. There is also a free internet offer which the company provides where users get 5Mbps speed but costs about $25 for annual subscription. 

 8 Google Glass

Google Glass is a real-time product right out of a science fiction story. In 2012, Google unveiled its first wearable device that comes with many features. The gadget can be used as an extension of Android Smartphones and tablets and is used to capture photos and videos from a wearer’s perception. It also supports phone calls, and user can check out maps, read emails and text messages and perform various other tasks via voice commands 

 9 Smartwatch

To compete with other electronics company manufacturers, Google is also stepping up the game by exploring its potential in designing Smartwatches as it recently acquired WIMM Labs, an expert in wearable technology. Google Smartwatch is expected to launch in 2014 and its applications are said to resemble Google Glass. Reports say that Google has unveiled the Smartwatch at three Google meetings held at Mountainview, Manchester and Berlin and global unveiling of this innovative gadget is yet to be seen. 

 10 Password alternatives

Over the last few years, Google has improved its efforts to kill passwords forever. Announcing its support to Fast Identity Online Alliance (FIDO), the company is working on novel means to verify user’s identity when they access their online accounts. Motorola is mixing science with health and is exploring the application of Proteus Digital Health pill, which is has a unique ECG trace that can be used to identify users via external devices. Dennis Woodside, CEO of Google’s Motorola unit also spoke about flexible electronic circuits that can be used as unique passwords by embedding them into people’s skin 

Create Log file for JAVA Server Applications.

Step:1

 

Save as log4j.properties in project folder
# Root logger option
log4j.rootLogger=INFO, file
 
# Direct log messages to a log file
log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.file.File=C:\\blazeds-turnkey-4.0.0.14931\\tomcat\\log\\license.log
log4j.appender.file.MaxFileSize=1MB
log4j.appender.file.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.file.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n

File=C:\\blazeds-turnkey-4.0.0.14931\\tomcat\\log\\license.log
In this path license log is created. 
 

Step 2:
Download log4j.jar

Step 3:
  Logger log = Logger.getLogger(getClass()); must be included in All Java Classes.
 getClass()=current class

        log.info("Username : "+uName);
        log.info("Password : "+pwd;
Username and Password are printed in log file.

Step4:
Levels of Log4j Properties:

• TRACE
• DEBUG
• INFO
• WARN
• ERROR
• FATAL
• ALL
  
  In step1:
  We have placed
  
  

  log4j.rootLogger=INFO, file
   
  

  info by which WARN,ERROR,FATAL,ALL will be covered above TRACE,DEBUG wont be covered.
  If we place Trace all properties will be covered.

A Few Intuitive Tricks All The New iOS 7 Users Should Know

Swipe Down For Search:

Gone are the days of having to swipe or tap your way to iOS’ dedicated search page. You can now access Spotlight search from anywhere on the home screen. Just swipe down in the middle of the screen.
You can use Spotlight to quickly search across your device’s apps, emails, and contacts — but curiously, it seems that Apple has removed Spotlight’s ability to search the web. I’m pretty sure I never actually used that, but this is the Internet so I’m supposed to complain now that it’s gone.

Swipe Up For Toggles:

Toggles! At last!

Fixing what is perhaps one of iOS most glaring, long-lasting omissions, iOS 7 puts one-click access to things like Airplane mode and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth toggles just one swipe away, instead of hiding them in settings.
To get to the new Control Panel, just swipe up from the bottom of the screen anywhere you might be. You’ll get buttons for Airplane mode, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do Not Disturb, Orientation lock, and sliders for brightness and media control. Oh, and there’s a flashlight in there. So if you were thinking about building a dedicated flashlight app, now is probably not a good time.
(Pro tip: The control panel is available from the lockscreen. Also: if the control panel is sliding out and interrupting your Candy Crushin’ time, you can block it from sliding out while in an app in your settings.)

Reveal iMessage and SMS Timestamps:

iOS has always been kind of weird about telling you when a message was sent or received. It’ll tell you when some messages came through — but only if it’s the first one that’s come through in a while in a given thread. If you sent a bunch of messages around 12:45, for example, you’d normally only get that first 12:45 timestamp.
With iOS 7, you can reveal the timestamp for each and every message. Just grab one of the speech bubbles in a thread and swipe to the left. Tada! Timestamps! Never argue about exactly when a message was sent again! (Because, yeah, I’ve had those arguments. Seriously. Sigh.)

Built-In Level:

Building a house boat? Hanging a picture? Just want to show off one of the stranger new tricks that your iPhone has picked up?
iOS 7 has a built-in bubble level, of all things. I thought it was a pretty strange addition at first… but then I found myself using it one day. Then again the next.
To get to the level, open the compass app. Though not immediately obvious, there’s a second page to the app; swipe to the left, and you’ll be at Apple’s level.
(Pro tip: Double-tapping the screen resets the level to consider whatever angle the phone is currently at to be 0°. That design choice, expressed through a series of colored flashes, isn’t super intuitive.)

Call/SMS/Facetime Blocking:

“Surely, there’s got to be a way to block phone numbers,” said every iPhone user ever.
Really, just type “How to b” into Google and let it autocomplete. First result? “How to block a number.” Second result? “How to block a number on iPhone.” Third result? “How to be happy.” This feature is in greater demand than happiness! Happiness!
Yet, until now, there hasn’t really been an easy way.
With iOS 7, it’s finally a pretty straightforward process to block people from calling, messaging, or FaceTime-ing (FaceTiming? Facing? Agh.) you. You can find the block list at either Settings > Phone > Blocked; Settings > Messages > Blocked; or Settings > FaceTime > Blocked. Note, however, that the block list is universal — block them in the phone settings, and they’re blocked on FaceTime, too.

App-By-App Cell Data Usage/Blockage:

Want to see which app is using up all of your cell plan’s precious megabytes? Want to keep Pandora from streaming unless it’s on Wi-Fi?
Pop into Settings > Cellular and scroll down to the bottom. You can see which apps have used the most cell data and block any app from using cell data at all. (Note: An app needs to have used cell data at least once for it to show up in the list.)

How To Close Apps:

We’ve had a bunch of requests for this one since this post first went up, so here you go.
Apple changed the App Switching/App Closing mechanism up a bit with iOS 7. It used to be that to close an app, you’d double tap the home button, wait for the app drawer to slide out, then press and hold on an icon until the little “X” appeared.
With iOS 7, the whole thing looks and works a bit more like webOS of yesteryear. Double tap the home button to bring up the fullscreen app switcher, which provides a screenshot of each running application in a sideways-scrolling carousel. To close an application, simply swipe the app’s screenshot up and off the screen.
(Note: You really shouldn’t need to close apps all that often. Unless the app has crashed and refuses to fix itself or it’s doing something that is eating your battery, iOS 7 is designed so that most apps use little to no resources when in the background.)

Adobe Gets Hacked.

Adobe has just disclosed that one of their servers has been hacked.

While their investigations are still ongoing, Adobe has shared a few details on what they believe could have been accessed and obtained in the hack — and it’s a big one.

From what Adobe has shared so far, it sounds like the hackers had access to encrypted data for as many as 2.9 million customers. While Adobe stresses that the data is encrypted and that they “do not believe the attackers removed decrypted credit or debit card numbers”, that data — encrypted or not — is definitely not something they want out in the wild.

Adobe has yet to disclose how that data was encrypted, so it’s currently unclear just how secure it is.

Meanwhile, it also appears that the hackers may have been able to access the source code for at least three of Adobe’s products: Acrobat, ColdFusion, and ColdFusion Builder. This goes hand in hand with a report from Brian Krebs this morning, who noted that he and a fellow researcher had discovered at least 40GB of Adobe source code available on a hacking group’s private server.
Beyond the obvious business implications of having your otherwise locked down source code floating around in the wild, there are potentially massive security concerns here. Once you’ve got the source code for an application in hand, it becomes much easier to dig up the stealthy Lil security screw ups that might otherwise go unnoticed. Combine this new potential for big zero-day exploits with the many, many millions of Adobe Acrobat (Adobe’s official PDF reader) installs around the world, and this all starts to get pretty worrisome.

How to protect Licensed softwares from system date-time changes?

Step 1: Create trial_tracker entry in an encrypted format in a windows registry and in file.

Step 2: Assign app install timestamp ( yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss ) to trial_tracker.

Whenever app starts, check if current system timestamp is greater than trial_tracker and less then expected expiry date.

•     If yes, update trial_tracker to current system timestamp and continue.

•     If no, trial_tracker has been tampered or trial time expired. Ask user to purchase full version or exit.

Note: User can get away with this by deleting windows registry entry and encrypted file.( if he is able to find them ). In such case, further checks can be added. For example create secondary windows registry entry which checks for existence of primary registry and encrypted file.
