Do we need to deactivate our social network accounts

I'm definitely a great supporter of social networks as it has given power to the masses. There are millions who have got their voice heard because of the social networks but there are always some drawbacks.

The most important drawback is that while it gave a lot of good people the voice to spread love and gratitude around at the same time it has given many negative people the voice to spread the hatred. For example you can find some bullies in your social network whi will keep trying to demoralize you.

You can also find people snooping into your information and stalking you day and night. The social network has also become a tool for weirdos in the world who will keep disturbing you with their activities.

No one can tolerate all this intrusion in one's life.So, you definitely need a break and you can definitely take it by deactivating the account because if you don't then in the back of your mind you will keep thinking about it. ;)

Another big challenge is coping up with the constant pressure of social network which puts a lot of pressure into your mind. You may seem to ignore it but things like who followed me, who unfollowed me, did he/she replied to my message, they are having a great time, I should also, why haven't they tagged me into that post. That person is in more people's circle then he must be better person than me.

All these above thoughts impact us and puts a lot of pressure on our brain. It may impact our mental health. So, like everyone else you also deserve a rest and so does your mind.

Don't worry and enjoy the holidays and if possible keep the social networks away. :D

iGoogle : Retiring in few months

iGoogle, one of the pioneering products in the internet which provided people an customized and personalized view. igoogle was launched in 2005 before anyone could understand where the web development and app development will move towards. Looking back it tells you that how early google predicted and created an internet app for the people which gave them personalized touch.

iGoogle provided people the chance to have all their searches and pages at one place, one can even have an app of facebook and twitter on their home page.It was a very convenient way of surfing the web. People can have their local news and weather updates at their home page and most importantly all this this can be customized.

iGoogle is going to retire on November 1, 2013. Google has given users enough time and opportunity to retrieve their personal data or export their personal data. With the new technologies taking over and more people are shifting from desktop to mobiles for surfing, the use of the customized home page has been reduced.

Thanks and goodbye iGoogle.

PS - If you still want use it in its last days, do go to -www.igoogle.com or http://www.google.com/ig

GOOGLE+ : 3 new features

Google is working very hard to compete with other social networks specially with facebook. Now it has come up with new set of changes for google+.

Firstly they have changed how the home panel looked like, though they also have clean tabs but this time the tabs are looking more prominent, further it's a drop down menu which declutter the whole space.It gives the due space that was required in it.

Secondly they have improved the section of "photos", it has more sub sections in it, further it lets you visit the most prominent of your photos at one go. Though google is also saying it will provide a better quality for the images in this they would be direct competition with the facebook, where people are really comfortable in  sharing their pictures.

Another important change is with the google hangout, you can directly connect with hangout with a button at top right hand side.Now you can check which circles are enabled for hangout and change the settings as required. Though group chat facility was already present in it for long now.

Have great time hanging out.
