 (Download Links) Microsoft Unveils Office 2013:

Microsoft has announced the availability of consumer preview version of its Office 2013,that the company is also calling Office 15..

Office 2013 will come with various desktop apps for all possible devices to make sure that what ever work you save on a single device is stored on cloud and is ultimately synchronized with all the devices that you use.In simpler words,make habit of seeing your work saved on SkyDrive,for instance,instead of C drive..

User's in Pakistan can’t sign-up or download this preview edition of Office 2013.Hard luck I would say, since you need to wait till Office 2013 is officially released for you, or probably you can search around to get the executable..

Update:

Thanks Waqas for tipping: User's in Pakistan can register for an account here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/office/apps and then download Office 2013 by going to  download client tool's.

Why You Should not Buy Chinese Tablet's?

We have seen a lot of people talking in favor of the Chinese tablet's which come at a modest price and can be bought by anyone,even those with very limited budget.

However,it must be taken into consideration that these tablets are not reliable and should be bought only when you are on an extremely strict budget.

Below listed drawback's are valid for not only the tablet's but for cheaper Chinese smartphones too.Let’s go straight away to the reasons,why these tablets are not worth buying:

Illegal unlicensed software:

To start off, many of these tablet's come without official,licensed software from Google which means they are made illegally. This means that their software is vulnerable to more viruses and of course,going to face performance issues and lagginess..

The software issues will definitely increase and the device gets even more laggy in the future,since software updates are usually hard to find,

Cheap build quality,unreliability & stolen design:

Most of these tablet's come with poor build quality so get ready to bid farewell to them incase you’ve dropped them.Their designs are similar and stolen especially from the iPad (I’ve already seen so many of them).They don’t usually come with warranties and after sale support so chances are narrowed that you’ll be able to repair or exchange them in case of any hardware issues.

No software updates or access to Play Store:

Since the companies making these tablet's do all this just for financial gain, they never ‘waste’ money on software updates to fix issues or updating the software. And because of the stolen & unlicensed software, they usually don’t have access to the Play Store for downloading apps so downloading your favorite apps will definitely become a headache.

Though you can download APKs for various apps,but again,that’s not legal.

Bad specifications:

This was expected, wasn’t it? Because of no access to application stores,poor cameras and only limited pre-installed apps,these tablets will bore you soon.Those ports you see on them might just be there just for the purpose of show-offing.

Performance issues, display & touch input:

This is possibly the biggest drawback.To save manufacturing costs, these tablets have low RAMs and aged & underpowered processors.This will cause the tablet to have performance issues which will only worsen with time. Battery life isn’t that great either. Their displays are usually washed out and touchscreens are usually resistive so they actually promise to make your user-experience ‘memorable’.

Low resale value:

After a year or two, these products will most probably be rendered unusable so on reselling them, you’ll only get a fraction of your money back as no-one would like to spend their fortunes on a cheap, unreliable and used device.

Conclusion:

And all these reasons apply not only to Chinese tablet's,but also to all the other cheap Chinese devices too. This article is only scratching the surface and listing the most important points,but you’ll learn about even more trade-offs as you’ll progress in your journey with the tablet.

Its always recommended that you save some more money and buy a good,reliable and branded tablet from a well-known company (like Google Nexus 7). Although not all of the Chinese tablets are like this, but most of them are so why not save your money and make a sensible decision?

Qubee launched Triple Dynamite in July:

Qubee has launched this promotion in July 2012, named as the Triple Dynamite offer..The campaign provides all new & existing customer's with three times the volume of their chosen package..

It should be noted here,the broadband service provider's traditionally offer double volumes to their customers,however,this is the first time that a service provider has changed the practice and offered triple volume..

On the occasion,the Chief Executive Officer of Qubee,Mr. Jamal Nasir Khan said “Qubee is a customer-centric organization with a focus on rewarding user's for their loyalty.Therefore, this summer, we have offered all new sign-ups to Qubee with triple volume in July & August, whereas for our loyal customer base we have already given them triple volume on their current package free-of-cost”..

LinkedIn Get's its Unofficial,Silly and Tempered Version for Pakistan:

LinkedIn would cry its heart out or even better it might crash it's head into wall if it ever happen's to see LinkedIn.com.pk – a country TLD for professional networking website i.e: LinkedIn.com.

LinkedIn.com.pk – apparently registered by someone from Pakistan – host's a clutter of services including job offering's without much sense.

I would rather call it a MFA website (made for adsense) which has got all the properties to get penalized by Google in less than two hour's.

Syed Arshad Jilani,the contact person mentioned in PKNIC record's for owner of the domain,should have contacted LinkedIn.com to hand this domain over to them in return of hefty buck's,instead of making few cent's out of this incredibly precious domain name by destroying everything associated with it.

Not to mention,LinkedIn.com has got every right to get to PKNIC to grab country level TLD for their registered trademark.It maybe recalled that LinkedIn and LinkedIn.com are registered trademark's of LinkedIn Ltd.

Idea of earning money online has hit Pakistanis so hard that they try every possible (yet stupid) way to earn dollars – but from the experience we can tell you that these efforts never materialize,unless you bring innovation and productivity in your product..

The new Nexus 7 Tablet has got some killer hardware coupled with a respectable software,i.e: Android 4.1 Jelly Bean,which is already receiving positive review's.

While its main competitor's will be either Amazon Kindle Fire or Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0,we think that it has enough skill's to take on even the best in tablet business.

*some version's of this tablet support voice and video calls as well

I will mention it again that Ipad 3 and Transformer Prime aren’t Google Nexus 7’s main competitor's,but still thanks to its great hardware,it can compete with those too in some,if not all categories.
