Trying on the new Dynamic Views from Blogger

As you may have noticed, the Gmail blog looks a lot different today. That’s because we—along with a few other Google blogs—are trying out a new set of Blogger templates called Dynamic Views.

Launched today, Dynamic Views is a unique browsing experience that makes it easier and faster for readers to explore blogs in interactive ways. We’re using the Classic view, but you can also preview this blog in any of the other six new views by using the view selection bar at the top left of the screen.



We’re eager to hear what you think about the new Dynamic Views. You can submit feedback using the “Send feedback” link on the bottom right of this page.

If you like what you see here, and we hope you do, we encourage you to try out the new look(s) on your own blog—read the Blogger Buzz post for more info.

Career in Open Source Development

When job hunting becomes a gamble, Open Source is a best choice to stick with. Open Source is a wide domain and there isn't any fixed path that one can tread to make a career.
 Today, many applications are being developed in the Open Source environment and are gaining wider acceptance. Open Source is no longer synonymous to Linux and Java, but has matured to several middle-wares.
Numerous developers from around the world are contributing to Open Source software and the ratio of contributing developers is witnessing a higher growth. Sun Microsystems, Google, Source Forge, Apache and many other organizations have several Open Source projects hosted and supported by them. The unique thing about Open Source is that it offers all kinds of opportunities to programmers and non programmers. The work in this mainly depends on your creativity skills than your programming skills. The other colorful part for this is you will be paid well also.

PROS AND CONS OF GOOGLE+

Last few months many mouth pronounced “Google+”, the Web is still taking on Google+ may be as the answer for Face book? This has been out in wild for a few days. Google+ is build around the basic concept of circles, which had left a unanswered question of “will Google+ circles around face book?”.

Google+ had scattered its max out as :

Circles- Developed as Google’s philosophy keeps friend circles isolated from each other, capable of sharing, updating, excluding other circles are highlighted.

+Hangout-Allows to connect with a group including video chat feature. Hangout intelligently puts the spotlight on the one who’s talking automatically; the specialty is there is no manual control on it.

Share-Sharing is enhanced with a one click button - kept on the top right, which will take in every browser.

Sparks-Sparks brings you stories on the things you love from all across the Web, so it's easy to strike up meaningful conversations  with your friends. 

It’s because of all these that Google+ is just a few weeks old and its user base is growing. Still to dethrone face book Google have to lift itself it have to play back some omissions.

Google + do not provide synchronize different services like twitter, LinkedIn and Face book as well.

Tagging of people outside the circles demanded you to conclude it lacks privacy.

Old threads in top create a perplexed situation.

No private messaging, it is permitted through mail only surely throws a dark line.

All these shows Google+  right now is only seems like for professional work rather than entertainment social network site unlike Face book.
