For people fond of the word : Unique

It’s true that every person’s thinking differs from the rest. In that way some people like to think unique, especially when it comes to owning a company and branding it with a name. People come up different names and finally end up with one, which they think is most relevant to the company’s products. Some are impressive like ADIDAS (All Day I Dream About Sports). I sometimes have a wired idea, how would it be if your company’s name is contradicting to your product. Like

Examples:

An antivirus solution named INFECTED.

A grocery shop named ROTTEN.

A hospital named DISEASE.

A film production company called FLOP. (Oops!)

A transport company called ACCIDENT.

A courier company called EMPTY. (Make sure they get it to destination!)

Airways called TOTAL CRASH. (Think twice before boarding)

A speaker company called MUTE. (Lets listen to music!)

A mobile service provider called NO SIGNAL.


These names grab attention and are proving to be an easy way to make your brand popular in the market. But you must make sure that your product’s quality isn’t a synonym to your brand name. You might lose your customers quicker than the rest, having common names. Don’t forget being unique applies for everything and especially for your quality. Not only these but funky brand names (E.g.: Knoti, Muzic) that bypass the normal English words have also gained an upper hand in achieving popularity. Though these might not attract everyone in the population it has a strong effect on people 20-40 age span. We very well know they make up to more than 60% of the consumers. Anyways its your product ; have it in the way you want, and make it popular.

Marcofolio.net - Worth to visit


Remember the times you ran mad at search engines for not giving right websites on the list.Well one such thing happened to me last week.I was searching in Google for an article related to RSS feeds. I happened to go past a site which had no relation with the matter I was searching for. It had an article about RSS icons and provided a list of ten RSS icons which were looking really cool. I kind of liked the site so I just browsed through it and found many articles interesting. To my surprise I had actually spent more than 3 hours on that site, reading the entries.

Through the weekend, I always had that website in a tab on Firefox and went around telling my friends about the new website I discovered and its contents.
Starting with the site's header which reads "Your only limit is your imagination" and the creativity of the author, there were several other things I found interesting in the site, one of them was the IMAGE DUMP. The author has a wonderful collection of cool and funny pics under that title.So I wanted to post an article about this website, just to make sure my readers are aware of it.
This site has a tab titled useful. Take a good look at that, you may find many articles that stress on things you wouldn't have noticed. And don't forget to visit the Fun part, you might miss the real action. Things like Gmail Cheat sheet and Photoshop tutorials also fall under the must read category.

I Guess thats about enough to tell u how good this site really is.

A smart and peppy media player


Everyone of us use different players/softwares for listening to music. The most popular and the common one is Windows Media Player. I should say music has gained a new dimension after people started using these softwares. Some people listen to music just because they love the player i.e., its looks. True, and thats the reason why players have skins. The second thing why people prefer a particular player is the sound output is good. In that way i would like to make you familiar with yet another player called the QUINTESSENTIAL PLAYER. Exploring on the above mentioned points i found this has satisfied them extraordinarily.
Right from visualisation to very good audio effects quint rocks. Skins like chameleon, speedo, phaseless will give your player a God like look. Its advantage is that it uses lesser RAM compared to other players of its kind.
Though not a familiar one, people like us who use it will never give it up. Here is the link for you to download this free version

Who's the best?


IE vs FX






IE popularly known as Internet Explorer was the only popular browser back in
the mid 90s. It was always the best browser, rated above Netscape
Navigator and all the others.In 1999 it was the best browser and was used by almost everyone who had access to the Internet. But this situation did not prevail too long. All the internet spammers and spywares started attacking it as it was very vulnerable and most commonly used. The codes of IE were cracked by several hackers across the world and unwanted stuffs were added. This was the time when many people started switching over to php and xml based browsers like Opera,Mozilla etc.,taking this into notice mozilla.org started an opensource project. Originally titled Phoenix, it was renamed because of trademark issues with Phoenix Technologies.The replacement name, Firebird, provoked an intense response from the Firebird free database software project. Then the Mozilla Foundation stated that the browser should always bear the name Mozilla Firebird to avoid confusion with the database software. As it encountered problems from the database server's development community forced another change; on February 9,2004, Mozilla Firebird became Mozilla Firefox, often referred to as simply Firefox and sometimes abbreviated as Fx .Fx's first version came out on Nov 9,2004. Fx was aimed to build a browser which will overcome almost all the problems faced by IE. And yes it did, now Mozilla Firefox is the second best browser in the world. Now as Netscape Navigator has been closed by its company its fans are also turning their attention towards Firefox as many of the features are similar.
There are many reasons why Firefox still prevails to be the best. As i was searching on this topic I found a website where the owner had given reasons why people use firefox.

He Quoted:

Reason #1:Constant bugs and security fixes that were affecting IE and other plugins,toolbars and homepages are not there in FX.

#2:The majority of these spyware and vulnerabilities are commonly programmed for Internet Explorer being that IE holds over 70% of the internet browser market.

#3: Pop-Up blocking.

In recent days no browser works without a pop-up blocker.“Firefox stops annoying popup windows dead in their tracks”, according to Mozilla.org.
To confirm it tou can visit a pop-up blocker test page http://www.popup-blocker.info.
Mozilla Firefox’s built in popup blocker was able to handle the “Stress Test”, which according to pop-upblocker.info

#4:Tab browsing.
Firefox allows you to do tab browsing which cant be done in case of IE.This reduces the time and also the trouble in having multiple windows.

#5:Download manager.
This feature is present in IE too but in Fx it has been modified.We can do multiple downloads which can be seen in the same window.It also allows us to pause and resume the downloads which is an addition compared to IE.

#6:An Inbuilt Search engine.
Fx has an inbuilt search engine which takes lesser time than any other homepage .

#7: Options.
Fx's options are better arranged than IE which makes the users to change them without much difficulty.

#8: Pages get loaded faster in Fx than in IE.

#9:Added advantage.
The Mozilla project is an Open Source project where thousands of independent programmers can work on finding security holes before they are exploited.

#10:You can easily block the images with a right click and selecting block image option.

The World's best Search Engine...

Well how many of u out there thought Google was the world's best Search engine??? Fair enough.... Google has the links to the most websites in the world, it still is and will continue to be the site with the most hits in a day.... But, eventually, wat matters is whether we end up finding what we were searching or not.... The results displayed by google contain a lot of entries which contain bogus links.....

I found a search engine over the net which combines the expertise of the two best search engines in the world to create one hell of a search engine which went on to be christened Gahooyoogle!!(obviously after its sources). The site displays results from the Google, Yahoo, Live, Ask, AOL, Dogpile, Altavista search algorithms simultaneously. This way, the time we take to find our desired info is minimal. From the next time , when u wanna use a search engine, do try out the following links.
