Knocking – Live Video Sharing iPhone App

08 Dec, 2009 by
iPhone, Tech
I came across this interesting iPhone application called Knocking [iTunes link] which lets you share live instant video between two iPhones!! If that doesn't sound too interesting, you must see a video demo of this app (RSS/ Email readers have to visit the web page to see the video) knocking-live-video-iphone-app Thus, with this application you can “knock” your friend’s iPhone to see what you see by sharing the instant video! Knocking Live Video Sharing app is released by Pointy Heads Software, they promise to give the app for free for the first 50.000 users, so hurry up! After the number reached 50.000, it will cost $2.99! Apparently, the app was initially rejected by Apple, but the developers went straight to the top and petitioned Steve Jobs to reconsider with a passionate e-mail. I am really glad that Steve Jobs had his head over his shoulders and gave a thumbs up for this...

TechPP Mega Christmas Giveaway : TuneUp Gold

by
Downloads, Featured, Giveaway

techpp-tuneup-free

After an exhilarating day where we had more than 2700 entries and 800 comments for EASEUS Partition Master Pro giveaway, Day 13 of TechPP Mega Christmas Giveaway will present to you an opportunity to win a free license of TuneUp Gold, a must have utility if you are a music lover. TuneUp is a companion app to iTunes which is able to scan the first few seconds of a track, compare it to the Gracenote catalog in order to identify it, then fills in your missing data automatically and it grabs album art as well. For serious music fans (that use iTunes), it could be a must-have application. TuneUp provides the functionality (for a fee) what I believe should have been there by default in iTunes. TuneUp’s greatest asset is that it works seamlessly with iTunes (for Mac and PC). With TuneUp hooked on to the right side of the iTunes program, you drag “dirty,” or mislabeled, songs into a box, and the software identifies songs by taking clues from information you’ve embedded in your music, as well as sampling the song’s digital fingerprint.

Google Real Time Search in Action

News, Tech
google-real-time-search This was on cards for a long time and it is here. Google has just launched real-time search, integrated into search results pages. If you wonder what's the big deal about this news, it surely is a huge thing, since from now on, Google will update its search results in real time happening around the world - for example, live tweets, Yahoo Answers, news articles and Web pages now update on the actual result pages. It works on mobile too. Check out this video demo on Google Real time search. Exciting stuff for a Google geek! Google’s announced that they’ve inked partnerships with both Facebook and MySpace to pull in data in real-time. For Facebook, that means public Facebook Pages, and for MySpace, it means any stream data that is publicly available. This comes just days after Microsoft announced a deal with Facebook to integrate Facebook data with Bing! This feature is not live yet for everyone, but will be in coming days. In case you do not see the live updates, you can see it...

Which is the Fastest DNS? Google DNS or OpenDNS?

04 Dec, 2009 by
Tech, Tiny Tip
Earlier today, Google unveiled its latest service - a public global DNS service called - Google Public DNS. Google claims that their new DNS service makes your internet connection much faster, much safer and more reliable. For those who are technically challenged, DNS is basically a system to convert domain names into IP addresses. Domain names are easier to understand, memorize and write for humans while computers only use IP addresses to communicate. A Google Code page details how to change the DNS servers to use Google Public DNS servers. Experienced users need to use the following two DNS servers.
8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4

Many of you might already know and some of you might already be using OpenDNS, which is the most popular DNS service provider until now. Personally, I have been using OpenDNS for a while now and very happy with their service - speed, security and reliability. So, I was not ready to change my DNS just because Uncle Google came out with a competitor for OpenDNS. Luckily, found out a simple way to actually test and compare OpenDNS and Google DNS.
