The world’s technocrats have never stopped thinking around the globe. The need for a more reliable and less costly operating system platform has always been a motivating factor for most mobile development companies.
Known for their lasting dominance in the mobile world, Nokia’s Symbian Operating System has now lost its appeal. The decade-long control by the platform has now come to a standstill with the venture of more interactive platforms like Blackberry, which never made a step, and Apple iOS. The iOS has been known to create a high profile amongst users though not their best option. The platform comes with enormous limitations ranging from vulnerability of operations, cost of owning and use to the unthinkable limit of memory use. Put together, Google Android system took chances to develop an all-inclusive operating system.
In today’s world, your website isn’t just mere online catalogue but an important element of your marketing strategy. Whenever individuals get to know about you, their first response is to look up your website. Hence, this can be just the perfect complementing tool for your other marketing media.
Take for example; you launched a Newspaper advertising campaign. While you would have given your contact details there, not everyone would be so interested to immediately call or mail you. Most people would want to know more about you, and telephone / mail can be limiting at times. That is when they would visit your website and extract all the information about you from there.
Google Earth is a wonderful application that allows its users to explore rich geographical content, and let them see satellite images. In addition to this, users can also see maps, landscapes and even 3D buildings.
Moreover, Google Earth also allows you to view satellite images from galaxies in outer space. With such a huge functionality, Google Earth has become quite popular as one can search the whole planet within seconds right from his bedroom. It does not require you to leave your comfort zone that is your comfortable room.
The present is almost mobile — as many as 85% of all American adults have cell phones and 45% of them have smartphones — and the future is certainly mobile. Thanks to iPhone, because soon after its release the trend of having a separate mobile website, based on the idea of creating a dedicated experience for on-the-go usage, found its birth.
Just when we thought we’ve got the ultimate mobile solution in separate mobile websites, we saw the arrival of a new concept on the heels of the future-friendly Web movement — responsive Web design. Coined by Ethan Marcotte on A List Apart, responsive design breaks away from creating a different website for each different platform or browser and embraces a one size fits all mantra. Many websites, such as those of Sony and Barack Obama's presidential campaign, have graciously adopted this water-like design.
If you've ever worked with design, you know the necessity of having a good set of vector images downloaded on your computer. Vector art can indeed come in handy when working on different types of design projects. Their main advantage is, obviously, that they can be resized to any size that you want while still retaining their original high quality. This is unique to vector images.
A lot of vector art is licensed, but I've done the hard work for you and collected 80 vector images, all of which can be used royalty-free. Feel free to look through the showcase, and if you find an image that you like - download it! If you like what I've put together, feel free to link to this page so that other people that need vector art can find it as well.
Of all the social media and networking sites out there, Google Plus might just be the most helpful, yet least understood, one of the bunch. Google’s social media platform has been called a flop and a ghost town ever since its arrival on the scene, but that’s hardly the case anymore.
Google Plus is now the second largest social media site and it’s only trailing Facebook as far as the numbers are concerned. But if you ask me, the networking, knowledge, and community involvement on Google Plus is the best available for any freelancer, and here’s why.
