एक बाकी एकाकी,
एक अंत एकांत..
एक अडके एकात,
एक एकटया जगात..
एक खिडकी एक वारा,
एक चंद्र एक तारा..
एक नजर एक वाट,
एक एकटा.....एकटाच...

Airplane mode
Every flyer at least once in a time of their journey must have been instructed by the cabin crew in the announcement to either switch off their mobile phones or put your phones in airplane mode during a flight.
What is Airplane mode ?
Airplane mode also referred to as flight mode, offline mode, standalone mode is a setting available in portable gadgets such as smartphones, laptops. We can either enable or disable airplane mode in the device settings. When we enable airplane mode, the radio frequency signal transmission is blocked, thereby analog and digital data services get deactivated and we no longer can receive and send messages or calls. In short, this mode switches off device’s connection to cellular and wi-fi networks. Putting device in airplane mode is an alternative if you don’t wish to switch off device completely. For example to listen to music, play game during the flight. It gives the liberty to use device without having to turn it off.
Why turn on airplane mode during flight ?
Our mobile devices using signals try to reach out to establish network connection from telephone towers. Flying plane being at a considerable higher altitude, the device cannot find a connection, it sends gradually more strong electrical signal in search of these towers. This can cause annoyance to the pilot with sound in his or her headphones because of such signals.
वो आज नही तो कल होगा
हर इक संकट का हल होगा वो आज नही तो कल होगा माना है कि है अंधेर बहोत और चारो ओर नाकामी है माना कि थक के टूट रहे और सफर अभी दूरगामी है जीवन के आपाधापी में जीने का टिकाना छूट गया माना कि थक गये सपनो का नींदो में आना छूट गया माना कि हिम्मत टूट गयी आँखो मे निराशा छायी है माना कि चाँद पे ग्रहन है और रात अभी गहराई है श्री कृष्ण ने साफ कहा है कि बस कर्म तुम्हारा कल होगा और कर्म में अगर सच्चाई है तो कर्म कहाँ निष्फल होगा ? हर इक संकट का हल होगा वो आज नही तो कल होगा लोहा जितना तपता है उतनी ही ताकत भरता है सोने को जितनी आग लगे वो उतना प्रखर निखरता है हीरे पर जितनी धार लगे वो उतना खूब चमकता है मिट्टी का बर्तन पकता है तब धुन पर खूब खनकता है सूरज जैसा बनना है तो सूरज जितना जलना होगा नदियो सा आदर पाना है तो पर्वत छोड़ निकलना होगा और हम आदम के बेटे है क्युं सोचे राह सरल होगा कुछ ज्यादा वक्त लगेगा पर संघर्ष जरूर सफल होगा हर इक संकट का हल होगा वो आज नही तो कल होगा -शुभम श्याम
Unthoughtful
Would certainly wished for Times to have slowed down Amidst the hide and seek Of wavering thoughts The castles that were Built in the air Would one day collapse Quick judgments On tip of the iceberg Would never take you To its base Still waters would not have known The depth of its own Until few stones were thrown Shallow superficiality Is not known for its guarantee Of authenticity *** Composed by Vinit Desai ***
Evolution of web: Web 1.0, Web 2.0 & Web 3.0
Web 1.0
This is the earliest version of web, often referred to as static web or read-only web. In this version there were only readable contents available in the form of text and images. It was only a one way broadcast of information by businesses. End-users could only search information and read it. It was not possible for end-user to interact with the information like post an update or a picture, update comments etc.
Web 1.0 had one publisher and multiple consumers of static data.
E.g. Shopping experience in web 1.0 era. User sees advertisement about a product on the website. Visits the store for buying it as interaction is not possible through website to shop online.
Web 2.0
To solve the Web 1.0 limitations of one publisher and multiple consumers, static data another version of web came into existence. This version of web is referred to as participative social web. As the name refers, it is an interactive form of web where end-users can participate over web to collaborate and share information for free through various platforms such as blogging, podcasting, social media content etc.
E.g. Shopping experience in web 2.0 era. User creates an account in shopping website, searches items of his choice. Adds the item to cart and checks out by opting out payment options.
The advantage of dynamic data, 2-way communication between publishers and consumers. But all this works at the cost of loosing privacy. Because when you are logged in to shopping website which has tie-ups with social media sites for generating traffic. As policy of website, you agree to terms and conditions while sign in which has a clause to share your personal data and information.
Web 3.0
This version of web is referred to as read write execute web. Web 3.0 will enable 2-way interaction of the user with the product, eliminating the requirement of a middleman. Users have the right to remove the ads if they don’t want to watch. If they see it, the browser distributes the rewards to users generated on the ad.
It will eliminate the monopoly of big social media sites upholding users data, where users have no right to remove the ads. If they wish to do so, they are charged money for blocking the ads. Data breach, one of the crucial problems in the existing web 2.0 generation, will be eliminated.
E.g., Shopping experience while maintaining privacy
Though, Web 3.0 has advantages which solves the problem of maintaining anonymity, eliminates the middle agent, gives the power of the internet in public hands and makes it decentralized, it has certain other challenges such as unethical and illegal acts, global warming at ground level, lack of effective tracing mechanism of source of broadcast due to anonymity.

This Is Just Going To Hurt A Little Bit 🦷
One thing I like less than most things is sitting in a dentist chair with
my mouth wide open.
And that I will never have to do it again is a hope that I am against hope hopen
Because some tortures are physical and some are mental,
But the one that is both is dental
It is hard to be self-possessed
With your jaw digging into your chest
So hard to retain your calm
When your fingernails are making serious alterations in your life line
or love line or some other important line in your palm
So hard to give your usual effect of cheery benignity
When you know your position is one of the two or three in life
most lacking in dignity
And your mouth is like a section of road that is being worked on.
And it is all cluttered up with stone crushers and concrete mixers and
drills and steam rollers and there isn’t a nerve in your head that
you aren’t being irked on
Oh, some people are unfortunate enough to be strung up by thumbs
And others have things done to their gums,
And your teeth are supposed to be being polished,
But you have reason to believe they are being demolished
And the circumstance that adds most to your terror
Is that it’s all done with a mirror,
Because the dentist may be a bear, or as the Romans used to say, only
they were referring to a feminine bear when they said it, an ursa,
But all the same how can you be sure when he takes his crowbar in one
hand and mirror in the other he won’t get mixed up, the way you
do when you try to tie a bow tie with the aid of a mirror, and forget
that left is right and vice versa?
And then at last he says That will be all; but it isn’t because he then
coats your mouth from cellar to roof
With something that I suspect is generally used to put a shine on a
horse’s hoof
And you totter to your feet and think
Well it’s all over now and after
all it was only this once
And he says come back in three monce
And this, O Fate, is I think the most vicious circle that thou ever sentest,
That Man has to go continually to the dentist to keep his teeth in good
condition when the chief reason he wants his teeth in good condition
is so that he won’t have to go to the dentist
*** Composed by Ogden Nash ***
WWW – World Wide Web
The World Wide Web (WWW) as we commonly know it as a Web, from where you are likely reading this. It is a system where we can access informative documents and other resources in various forms from the internet. Its used for browsing the news, chatting with friends, ordering food, booking a flight etc. We use it from our computers and phones. World wide web has definitely changed the way how information was shared prior to its existence, with the help of fax machines, letters, telephones.
What is World Wide Web ?
Well, the World Wide Web is a collection of websites stored on different web severs. A web server is a computer specifically designed to store and share the information with the use of web hosts. Each website is uniquely identified with its website address or a URL(Uniform Resource Locator). The World Wide Web is not the Internet, event though the terms are often used interchangeably. The Internet, in simple words, is the way how computers connect to each other in order to share information. Just like this world, no one owns the Web, it belongs to all of us. We might have to pay an Internet service provider to gain access, a hosting company to rent web space and to register a web address of our choice.
Who invented the World Wide Web ?
Sir Tim Berners-Lee, also known as Tim BL, a computer scientist invented the WWW in the year 1989.
What makes the Web so unique ?
Earlier to existence of the Web, most information was consumed form newspaper articles, books or any other physical document by reading it line by line, page by page, from beginning to the end. There was no ease of accessing relevant information in a short span of time. The Web accomplishes this arrangement of digital information access to the world with the use of hyperlinks. Hyperlinks are clickable links which divert the user to specific content of its interest, like this blog page has links on right side with a list of topic names, just the way we have index page to locate the title at specified page number and textbook.
