Whatsapp to end support for these smartphones by the end of 2016. Here's the list

 

Earlier this year, Whatsapp turned seven years old. This messaging application has now reached about one billion monthly active users worldwide. It has been a long and amazing journey of whatsapp with us. But now, the company wants us to upgrade our smartphones, which are running on older versions of Android, iOS and Windows Phone.

Whatsapp which is now Facebook-owned firm, was started in 2009, when Apple App Store was only a few months old. About 70 percent of smartphones sold at that time had operating systems offered by BlackBerry and Nokia. But now, 99.5 percent of smartphones has operating system offered by Google, Apple and Microsoft.

In a technology upgrade, WhatsApp planned to phase out compatibility with older phones as they plan to focus on the mobile platforms that vast majority of people use. WhatsApp in a blog post had said older operating systems did not "offer the kind of capabilities we need to expand our app's features in the future."

So, whatsapp confirmed, the discontinuation of its service for older smartphones by the end of this month i.e, December, 2016 

The mobile platforms which would not be supported are:

  • Android : Android 2.1 and Android 2.2
  • Windows : Windows Phone 7
  • BlackBerry : BlackBerry OS and BlackBerry 10
  • iPhone : 3G/iOS6
  • Nokia : Nokia S40 and Nokia Symbian S60

However, whatsapp support will be extended for the following devices until June 30, 2017:

  • BlackBerry OS and BlackBerry 10
  • Nokia S40 and Nokia Symbian S60

There is no need to worry, you just have to upgrade your smartphones to enjoy whatsapp messaging.

(Consider sharing this article with your friends and family so that they can be aware in time and you can continue staying in touch with them through WhatsApp. Share through WhatsApp , Facebook or Twitter).

Experience the photographic world in 3D with Bevel for $49

 

We all love to click pictures from our cell phones and digital camera's, so that we can hold on the memories, evoke a reaction, show true happiness and yes, our favorite one is to share them with friends on social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. In this Hi-Tech world where we enjoy 3D movies and video games then, why should we only limit ourselves to 2D photographs when we can have fun with them in 3D. 

 However, like many early technologies, 3D capture devices are mostly too expensive and complicated. But, thanks to Canadian company Matter and Form which is aiming to change this with Bevel, a device that changes your smartphone into a 3D camera. Bevel will also come with a companion app, which will allow users to capture and share these 3D models. 

The reason for which it stands out of the other similar devices is that other 3D attachments/devices create the illusion of 3D by enhancing the depth of an image, but fail to capture a file that you can actually use. You can even use Bevel for 3D printing. This is called as Genuine 3D™ photography.  
Now what does this Genuine 3D™ photography mean?. It means that the photos can be rotated, turned into animated GIFs and viewed from multiple angles. You can also add an image of the background behind the 3D photo.

Bevel uses an eye safe laser light, and the existing camera on your Android or IOS device, to capture photographs in a whole new dimension.

 Now let's see how it works?. Simply, plug in the Bevel into the headphone jack of your smartphone or tablet and you are done with the installation of the device. Have an object still for a few seconds and capture the photograph. After clicking the photo, wait for the software to apply sweet filters. Now you are ready to upload the picture on Cashew, which is a free online platform for sharing and uploading 3D work. You can also your photo directly to sites like Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Wordpress blogs, Instagram, Pinterest, etc. or share directly to your contact list.

The company launched a Kickstarter campaign to help fund this product and at the time of writing this post, it pledged more than $300,000 with the goal of just $200,000.

Here’s a video that was created to help with crowdfunding the Bevel:

Sometimes, we all prefer to wear loafers or shoes without socks, but we all know the problems that we face , and they are chafed and crack skin, diseases like athletes foot, callus, fungal infection and most importantly our feet stinks badly.

 But thanks to Honey Soles, a company in New York, which made the shoe insoles which helped us to overcome these problems. Last year, Honey Soles launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter with the slogan "Honey Soles | Transform your shoes.

And in the winter, the ground can be up to 10 degrees colder than the air temperature. Keeping your feet warm has the highest impact on keeping the rest of your body warm.

 By, adding a sheepskin layer(i.e. Bear Soles) to the bottom of your shoes works much like the insulation you may find in your home. Cold air is kept out. A microclimate is created around your skin that retains the body’s natural temperature. Bear Soles are made of natural, fine grain, Australian sheepskin. One of the softest and most indulgent available on the market today.

Nebia, a Shower Head Startup, Received funding from Tim Cook of Apple and claims 70% water savings

 

Almost, everyone prefers showers over baths.
In an average, showers are typically third largest water use after toilets and cloth washers. The average American shower uses 17.2 gallons (65.1 liters) and lasts for 8.2 minutes at an average flow rate of 2.1 gallons per minute.
And, yes millions of gallons of water and  lots of energy is wasted daily by using the shower head.


But, This startup has re-engineered the showerhead to be radically efficient in conserving both water and heat, without sacrificing comfort.
The unique shower system uses atomizing technology, originally developed for jet engines, to turn water into a fine mist. The shower wets more thoroughly and in a larger area, while using 70% less water than a typical shower.
The average shower takes 20 gallons of water, Nebia said its product used six gallons.
Nebia also helps you conserve energy. Traditional household showers consume markedly more energy than a Nebia just to heat the water and the majority of that hot water goes straight down the drain. Nebia is 13 times more efficient at delivering the heat you pay for to your body, making your daily shower in a Nebia 13 times more thermally efficient. The combination of Nebia’s water and energy savings translates to lower monthly utility bills.

 The Nebia sensation stays with you long after you leave your shower. For hours after finishing your shower, you feel rejuvenated. Your skin feels cleansed and refreshed. Your hair shines. Your muscles relax. There is no better way to start your day.
You all would be wondering that will it be able to rinse your hair: Yes, it does rinse your hair.

 Nebia has tested prototypes of the shower head with the students, employees, and customers of Equinox Gyms, Google, Apple, and Stanford University.
The Nebia shower launched a campaign on Kickstarter in August 2015 and raised over $3M in one month. Also, Nebia has declined to say that how much fund did it received from Tim Cook and the company Apple told that Mr. Cook’s stake in the start-up was a personal investment.

 Fidgeting may be a result of nervousness, agitation, boredom or a combination of these. It may be a result of genes and is often an unconscious act. Fidgeting may involve playing with one's fingers, hair, items of clothing and ring spinning. Actually, we all do it.

However if you’re looking for a fun and entertaining way to fidget, you might be interested in a device called the Fidget Cube, a project on Kickstarter that has garnered a lot of attention in the recent weeks, and at this time of posting, has managed to raise more than $6.3 million, way, way past its original and humble goal of $15,000.

So, what is Fidget Cube?Basically, it is a a vinyl desk toy for anyone who likes to fidget. Fidget Cube (patent pending) has six sides. Each side features something to fidget with:

  • Glide: A joystick that coasts across the surface.
  • Click: No need to click the pen anymore. You'll find 3 clicker buttons and 2 silenced buttons on this side design to satisfy the clicker in each of us.
  • Spin: A rotating dial.

   ( image depicts the above points in a sequence)

After reading the article the most important question arises- Is fidgeting beneficial to us? Yes, it is beneficial in following ways:-
  • People who fidget regularly tend to weigh less than people who do not fidget because they burn more calories than those who remain still. It has been reported that fidgeting burns around an extra 350 calories a day.
  • Research by Dr. Karen Pine and colleagues at the University of Hertfordshire funded by The Economic and Social Research Council found that children that were allowed to fidget with their hands performed better in memory and learning tests.
  • People who fidget regularly tend to stay more focused at work.

10 New Features Of Windows 10 Anniversary Update that you must know

 

Windows 10’s second big update, dubbed the “Anniversary Update”, is finally here. This is a huge update that touches every corner of the operating system. Free for all Windows 10 users, the update is shaped by feedback from Microsoft's Windows Insider program.

 If you don’t have it yet, try checking for updates in Windows 10’s Settings > Update & Security. You can also start the update manually  from Microsoft’s support page here.

1)Cortana—Your Digital Agent


Cortana is ready to help you in more places in Windows 10, including the lock screen. When your device is locked, you can still check your calendar ("What's my schedule for tomorrow like?") or ask Cortana important questions ("Can you beatbox?").

 And forget about writing tasks on your hands just to remember, say, your dad's birthday—create reminders based on location, time, and even people. Cortana can help you remember to wish your dad a happy birthday at a specific time, or remind you to pick up a cake when you're at the grocery store.

2)Rule The Web With Microsoft Edge

The context menu for extensions in Microsoft Edge

Microsoft Edge has so many updates, we need a list to cover them all:

  • Use Extensions to personalize and protect your browsing with add-ons like Office Online, Microsoft Translator, and more.
  • Enlist Cortana to show you similar image suggestions on Bing searches, or even the lyrics to a music video you're watching.
  • Pin individual tabs to the Start screen for easy access.
  • If you have a touchsreen device, browse more briskly by swiping left/right to go back/forward to different webpages.

3)Windows 10 Gets a Dark Theme (and More Theme Options)

With the Anniversary Update, you can now choose between light and dark modes in Settings > Personalization > Colors. Its designed for Windows Store apps, but not every app will listen to this setting and obey it–some apps, especially those from third-party developers, control their own theme settings. This also means File Explorer will remain as blindingly white as ever. You can also choose color of your own choice for start, taskbar and action center.

4)Get Creative With Windows Ink


Windows Ink puts the power of Windows in the tip of your tablet pen, enabling you to write on your device just like you do on paper, create sticky notes, draw on a whiteboard, and easily share your analog thoughts in the digital world. Windows Ink is integrated into apps like Maps, OneNote, Microsoft Edge, and Office.

5)Simpler Start Menu


Microsoft has changed the way Windows 10’s Start menu works. The “All Apps” option is now gone–you’ll just see a full list of installed applications at the left side of your Start menu. Your most frequently used and recently added applications will appear at the top of this list. It’ll show the three most recently added applications instead of a single one, and you can expand this list to see more applications sorted by when you installed them.

Important buttons like the File Explorer, Settings, and Shut Down buttons are now always located at the left side of the Start menu.

OneDrive users will be happy to know that they can now search all their files–both files on the PC and files stored online in OneDrive–from the Start menu.

6)Improved Notifications In Action Center

Action center
Action center has moved to a new location in the far right corner of the taskbar, and sports a new look that gives you the power to organize your notifications however you see fit.

 You no longer need to open action center to see how many notifications you have—the number on the action center icon(highlighted above) shows you how many notifications are waiting for you. Other apps pinned to the taskbar can also show the number of notifications you've missed. 

7)Do More On The Lock Screen


Cortana isn't the only new feature on the lock screen—you can now play music while your device is locked to control the action from start to stop. Media controls appear at the bottom right corner of the lock screen, along with a picture of the album art from the song currently playing.

8)Windows hello for apps and websites


Fingerprint sensors have been a huge convenience on phones and tablets, and Windows currently supports it for logging into your laptop too via Windows Hello–provided it has the necessary hardware. But in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, Windows Hello will support Windows apps and Microsoft Edge, so you can securely log into apps and web sites using your fingerprint as well–not just Windows itself.

You can also sign in to your PC using Windows Hello companion devices, such as Microsoft Band and some Windows 10 phones.

9)The Store Is Redesigned


The new Windows Store design includes features that should appeal to gamers in particular. It's aligned more closely with the Xbox Store, and now offers game bundles and subscriptions. For everyone else, the new design does make it a bit easier to get to the top apps, music, and movies. The Store's download progress indicator is now bigger and clearer, too.

10)Windows Defender Gets Better for Security


 You can also schedule regular scans, and use Cloud Protection and Automatic Sample Submission for quicker threat response. PCMag's security analyst, Neil Rubenking, notes that Defender has improved its performance on independent lab tests, but he still recommends third-party antivirus for superior protection.

Note- It may take half an hour or more to update your windows 10 and your computer might restart several times, don't panic and update it in free time.
