What is Google Plus?

At last, Google has made a serious comeback in it social networking yard and it can be a party spoiler for facebook. It is a much awaited reply from the search engine giant to facebook.  It’s the super top-secret social project that Google has been working on for the past year.  It seems to be Google has putted everything on the line to win this race and tell its competitor that the game is not finished yet. Apart from that, Google knows that it biggest competitor has a status of 700 Million plus following, Photo & Video Sharing, Chat, Groups & Fan Pages in the social market. So, what Google did is, it looked into what led to their failure with the previous experiments and what led to their competitor’s success and then built a product on the competitor’s weaknesses combined with its own strengths.

Google Plus really is a mixture of Facebook and Twitter. When you first get access to it, you’ll notice that the Circles feature allows you to categorize your connections to meaningful groups. I recommend everyone to set this up well as it will define your activity on Google Plus.You’re given default Circles however, you can create new ones. With Circles, you can push messages out only to the people who you intend it to go to and if you want to share it with everyone, just mark the update as ‘Public’. This way, you can stick to sharing stuff only with your friends the Facebook way or share public-ly the Twitter way. You can send messages out just text, images, links or even location. Choose whom you want the update to go to and boom. 

In short, It’s Google + Facebook + Twitter clone, with better groups, more private messaging and video chat, along with the promise of social gaming and much more to come, but it has only ‘sort-of’ arrived.

What is Google +1?

Google +1 is Google’s answer to the Facebook “like” button. If you find the search result useful or just enjoy the linked site, you hit the +1 icon. Google says by +1-ing a result you're giving it a recommendation, a stamp of approval. More +1's on a result means the site is more interesting.

Google+ has the capability to attract, it’s magnetic but it clearly not a Facebook destroyer. A lot of people seem to think that Google Plus is the new Facebook with additional features. Although, by first look, this social networking site is giving me a very impressive look, but replacing facebook is surely not a easy task to do. If team Google is really aiming to rebuild its empire in social networking market, then they have a need to add some more feature to their product for enhancing its capability. Indeed, nothing is wrong with facebook, if anyone wants to stick with facebook then he can because it is providing most of the features which google is promising to provide. And above them all, leaving your old account just because of some new features is not a easy task to do, until and unless you get a complete new platform to work upon. So at last, I don’t think facebook have any major threat with google plus, at least not in the near future.

What is Cell Phone Radiation?

Radiation is energy travelling through space in the form of waves or particles. There are several different types of radiation present in our surroundings on a day to day basis. Ionizing and Non – Ionizing are the two types of radiation. As per studies, Ionizing radiation is very harmful to human body because Ionizing rays from x-rays and nuclear energy has been proven to cause cancer. Whereas, In mobile phones Non – Ionizing radiation has been used and it doesn't have any negative effect on human bodies. But the speed at which the technology is growing our studies are not. So, what happen is, it has created doubt in many minds that, does this type of radiation is really safe for human health.

Cell Phone Radiation is a Myth or a serious threat to think about:

As I told you in upper section, there are two type of radiation Ionizing and Non – Ionizing. Ionizing radiation may cause serious threat to human beings because exposure to this type of radiation causes cells and genetic matter to mutate or change form. This can lead to various types of cancer, affecting the thyroid, breast, bladder, colon, liver, lung, esophagus, ovaries and stomach.

But there is nothing to worry about because the type of radiation which our cell phone emits is Non – Ionizing, which means it doesn't do much to human beings ( As per evidence says ). Even then many studies say that it may cause serious problem if we spend a good amount of time with our cell phones, so, the question which arises here is: -

1.           What amount of time a man have to spend every day to become a victim of this radiation.
   
   
    2.  Suppose that the daily time limit for using a cell phone is 30 min, means if a person is using a cell phone for 30 min daily, then he will become a victim of radiation. But the question which arise here is what is the minimum period (days) to become a victim to this type of radiation. Means if I am using my cell phone for 30 min daily, then to how many days or years I have to sustain this thing to be a victim of radiation.
   
   
   3.  Suppose that, I am affected by radiation, then the big question which arises here is, by which disease I would suffer ( Tumours ,Memory impairment, Cancer, Brain damage, Foetal damage ). There is no clear evidence for any of them.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   What should we do?
   There is no need to get afraid from this type of radiation because no one have a clear evidence. Many studies says it may effect human brain, memory etc... but there is no clear proof. And most importantly, many of these studies were conducted in Europe and was held nearby 2004. One thing which I want to make clear is the technology or the mobile signals which works in Europe, is very much different from India or any other country.  Another thing is that, the technology which were in use at that time, was much older then what we use today. Since 2004, mobile market and technology have been very much changed and it has pulled the user mobility experience to the next level. Now days mobile phones are much cheaper, powerful, user friendly, and eco-friendly as well. Even then, if some studies are showing this type of stuff, then what we need to do is, to take some precautionary measures because at the end of the day it is for our betterment and safety. But don't take it to seriously because if there is something found wrong in it, your country government will address you.

History of Facebook

Facebook was founded by former-Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg (while at Harvard) who ran it as one of his hobby projects with some financial help from Eduardo Saverin. Within months, Facebook and its core idea spread across the dorm rooms of Harvard where it was very well received. Soon enough, it was extended to Stanford and Yale where, like Harvard, it was widely endorsed.

Before he knew it, Mark Zuckerberg was joined by two other fellow Harvard-students – Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes – to help him grow the site to the next level. Only months later when it was officially a national student network phenomenon, Zuckerberg and Moskovitz dropped out of Harvard to pursue their dreams and run Facebook full time.

But Zuckerberg needed help to grow his little social networking site that could. He would not stop until The Facebook had been installed on all university campuses in America. In September 2004, they secured venture capital from PayPal founder Peter Thiel. The $500,000 investment was a start, but Zuckerberg and friends had big plans for The Facebook. Seeing the potential value in The Facebook, Jim Breyer and Accel Partners ponied up $12.7 million to assist Zuckerberg in the expansion of his virtual empire.

So by October 2004, Zuckerberg had the money, the manpower, and the institutional backing to go global. Betatesting continued on within the American University population for the next year, and in August 2005, The Facebook dropped the “The” and Facebook.com was registered for $200,000. The network opened up, and within months anyone with a valid institutional email address from over 30,000 organizations across the planet were eligible for membership, including high school students, government employees and the corporate community.
