HEAVY SNOWFALL WHITEWASHES MY EUROPE TRAVEL PLANS

Freezing cold has returned to much of Europe following a mild stretch, paving the way for outbreaks of snow through at least the start of this week. Much awaited bed of snow is finally freezing the spine of mine, It looks like a big white canvas which I am ready to paint with colors but I am sure the colors will be overshadowed again with the white cast of snow. I tried to step out of my house and saw Icy and snow-covered roadways which will disrupt my going out for a week as weather forecast is to believed. My uncle who was coming to spend his vacations from India sent me a text about Air traffic which is subject to flight delays and cancellations.Much of Central and Western Europe will have days with temperatures ranging from 10 to 15 Degrees F below normal. I am forced to spend my day in my cozy blanket, brandy, IPad and my pet Lucy which I was longing for.

On the TV every news channel is covering the widespread snow, locally heavy, will fall in U.K., Germany, the Low Countries and France, to name a few. Even in southern Europe, parts of Italy, Spain and the Balkan Peninsula, will be subject to potentially heavy snow. One storm, ponderous and "double barreled," will dump a foot or more of heavy mountain snow, between Wednesday and Friday, over an area from the Pyrenees region of Spain and France, through much of Italy, eastward into such Balkan lands as Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro and Greece.Some lowland cities, in Italy and elsewhere, will also get heavy snowfall.

Another storm may lay down heavy snow Friday and Saturday in a swath over U.K. and France to the western Alps, which has made me bit worried about my daily life. The only thing which I am relying upon for traveling out is an application called RouteIt where I do not need to worry about any traffic and snowfall because it makes me travel virtually. Since I have joined the Project World Tour on facebook, I get connected to different people all over the globe who are sharing their experience and images of their travel around the world. I must say this gives me an extra dose of energy and hope to explore the place I have never been to and make new friends. I will still wait for the weather to become pleasing and warm around so I can spend my holidays with my uncle. The cold, unsettled weather could drag on well into next week as well, But I will keep you people updated.

Project World Tour - A Journey To Roots Through Routes

Amanda was feeling damn nostalgic today. It has been 13 years since she walked on the route to her alma mater. She could actually see a calico of her images, toying with her friends in bits and pieces, across that route. A short journey via that route rewinded her school-memories as if those were playing on a bioscope or something.

Was it with Amanda only? Or do we all share a special connection with routes? How many times have you seen yourself walking on those roads that were your inextricable companions to several destinations that you’d set from time-to-time? In fact, even if you replay your good old college days, a major part of the nostalgic drive will inadvertently cast the routes you trod with your friends.

That’s how our memories are essentially wired. We could still connect with the route we took when we went to the school for the first time. We could still live over the excitement when our bulging bags leaned out to pave the way for light trendy bags, and school uniform transformed into fashionable attires and cool accessories in college. That nervous yet ambitious walk to the office. A surreal walk with the first date on a beach or some other romantic spot. Believe it or not, you have pictures of all these, and many more life-changing routes deeply ingrained in your sub-conscious.

In Project World Tour, we have endeavored to weave those all important routes, and several others, into a series of knowledge sharing postings across multitude of platforms. The aim here is to build a community of and for travelers where they go beyond sharing about places. Instead, the community will further magnify their sharing by talking about different routes that run through as veins in any city.

Not just that, contribution in the Project World Tour can fetch you some exciting takeaways that you can show off on your friends. We are on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Google Plus, YouTube, and all the popular platforms. Just enter #ProjectWorldTour in the search boxes of your favorite social media site and join the league of the extraordinary travelers waiting for like-minded people like YOU.

Project World Tour - Bring Out the Sindbad in You

“Columbus”, “Captain Cook”, “Vasco Da Gama”! Now what’s the first thing that crashed into your mind for that fraction of a second when you were reading these names. Perhaps, pictures of stout European men clad in metal buttoned sailor suits, wearing the American dixie cups or the French “Bachi” bonnets on their heads. Apart from the attire, the thought that goes perfectly moussed up with their names is the very thrill of exploration and adventure these iconic voyagers must have enjoyed. Sailing and beating those soaring ripples to a destination unknown, that’s what traveling and exploration is all about. Rest is just a pleasure-seeking exercise to say the least.

We always wish to feel that thrill of unraveling something not very known to the world, at least to our neighbors and friends. We do show off our serendipitous explorations to our friends, and never miss a chance to tell them that how mediocre their trip to that place was just because they couldn’t find the place you somehow managed to discover. Having said that, some of us do have that honest urge to see what the world has to dish up. Curiosity to know the very planet they inhabit is what actually drives these souls. And then there’s a whole class of travel aficionados who simply live for traveling and wouldn’t mind crossing an ocean to know about an obscure and remote island somewhere.

Whatever may be the reason, owing to the very restless nature of human beings, we simply can’t stay glued to one place for long. Every third weekend we call friends, we chalk out plans to hit the not-so-far destinations, and then immolate those with lethargy, or sometimes with time and resources constraints we suffer on and off.

Just to save those plans from random butchering with giving due respect to your lethargy and the sheer willingness to achieve everything while sitting on a bean-bag, we announce the launch of “Project World Tour”. This ambitious project is a part of RouteIt, a distinguished travel app, which houses the world’s choicest routes for you to dig into. Under this aspirational project, we’ll take you to different places while you’re logged into your favorite social network, be it Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, and Google Plus.

The aim of the Project World Tour is to make you aware of the places you always wanted to be at, and that too in an engaging way, giving you a feeling closer to the real world dynamism. In addition to virtual traveling, the Project also aims at building a community of like-minded travelers to instill an environment conducive for sharing. There will be contests and quizzes, rewards and awards, and lot more up for the grab.

So all fellow travelers, join the Project World Tour and discover the world in a way you might have never done before.

A Smart trip to France

Last Christmas vacation had been awesome for my friends. They had a trip of eight days that lasted from 25th December till 1st of January  They had been to France. I have only seen France in movies and on the Internet, not otherwise. My parents were not allowing me to go with my friends. But guess what?This year we are paying a visit to France.

France is the hub of old wine, intoxicating cheese and Gallic humor and of-course world's best Pizza. French  people have different accent but sounds like someone is speaking with a mouth full of candies. As soon as my friends reached France, they judged that almost all the people spoke french. They only knew English and Hindi. This made them pretty uncomfortable till one of them had an idea of downloading LingoDiction.  LingoDiction is a smart language-trainer app that allows the travelers, business men and language enthusiasts to learn new languages with utmost ease and efficiency. Now things had become very easy on their end and downloading the app was like winning a war on the trips. Lot many things had set straight. They need not require any help of any kind of other translator of so. LingoDiction was providing them with the best of platform. But this was not the end they needed someone to guide them. They did not want to hire a guide else there would be interference. They were thinking how to resolve the problem lest they saw an advertisement board of RouteIt.

Now they had almost everything in their hands. They could track routes of various places to visit along with fabulous hotels. They could easily know the famous mall, resort, hotels and even hospital that was close by. One of my friend even fell ill due to the change of weather. My friends could easily trace the nearest reachable hospital. Within few hours he recovered. The fun part had regained once again. There was laughter and it seemed they had entire France cheering with them. LingoDiction and RouteIt had set life so straight and easy going. Since this New Year, it's my turn I already have the two massive amazing apps. So friends hurry up its time for real smart work. Download these smart apps and remain updated always.

It is our pleasure to introduce to you iGuruCharitra mobile app designed and recorded specially for the iPhone OS. Shri Guru Charitra' is the life of 'Shri Guru Dattatreya' (an incarnation of Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara). It is the life story of Shri Narasimha Saraswati, his philosophy and related stories written by the 15th-16th Century poet Shri Saraswati Gangadhar. Some people regard the book to be historically important as it depicts stories or events which took place around the 14th Century. 

For those who do the regular "Parayan" ( Meaning the methodical recitation of Gurucharitra in stipulated time and manner), this app would help as the support for their own "Parayan" effort. For those who are not able to read Gurucharitra for the reason of old age or any other reason, this app would provide opportunity to be able to enjoy the material as well. In the fast life that everyone lives, one hardly finds time to spend on reading the books/literature and other such artistic material. iGurucharitra is a step to give you that literary and spiritual fulfillment without snatching time away from your daily demanding schedule as literature is now available to you in audio format. You can listen to this material while you are travelling or doing your daily chores.

About Shri Dattatreya and Shri Guru Charitra
Dattatreya (Sanskrit: दत्तात्रेय, Dattātreya) or Datta. Dattatreya is a Hindu God who is an incarnation of the Divine Trinity Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. The word Datta means "Given", Datta is called so because the divine trinity have "given" themselves in the form of a son to the sage couple Atri and Anasuya.

Shri Guru Charitra' is the life of 'Shri Guru Dattatreya' (an incarnation of Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara). The Shri GuruCharitra is the life story of Shri Narasimha Saraswati, his philosophy and related stories written by the 15th-16th Century poet Shri Saraswati Gangadhar. Some people regard the book to be historically important as it depicts stories or events which took place around the 14th Century. The book originally had 52 Chapters; the 53rd Chapter of "Avatarnika" summarizes the previous 51 chapters. The whole book is considered a "Mantra" in itself and thus there are very strict rules for reading it. In Datta Sampradaya they consider this as their "Veda"

Smart Phone or Dumb Phone it’s what an app makes it

The past 10 years we've seen cellphones transform into electronic Swiss army knives with a wild variety of functions and features. They are replacing the watch, the camera, the standalone GPS, the alarm clock, and many other tools.

But what will the smart phones of the future look like?
Here's what we envision ...
In five years, the Patent Wars are over and Apple emerges victorious. The company has trademarks of many design features, including many types of curves. As a result, competing smart phone manufacturers resort to triangular or angular forms.It may not be long before such a killer app makes an appearance. The bar-code scanning ability of the auto focus camera on new devices suggests some possibilities. This is the basis of a popular app that is remarkably handy for checking prices when, for example, you are out shopping for a new HDTV. Bar-code scanning combined with printing and database querying capabilities could turn the device into a powerful laboratory information management tool for samples and reagents. The camera combined with text recognition could be used to access the material safety data sheet for any chemical. Bar-codes in scientific publications could direct readers to relevant online information or raw scientific data.

The ability to interface with other devices using different wireless protocols could be used for remote sensing or instrument control.App development has maintained extremely rapid growth over the past two years, particularly among the Android and iPhone platforms. The latter is now estimated to have over 150,000 apps after starting with just over 500 in July 2008. Android started later and with a much smaller pool of roughly 30 apps but has since grown to over 20,000 titles in roughly a year and a half.

BlackBerry App World, the Palm App Catalog and Windows Marketplace have also had a limited amount of success, although the latter may experience a "reboot" as Windows Phone 7's incompatibility will force many to rewrite apps to support the new OS.

What about the applications??
Applications are the new tools which makes a phone smart, without having useful applications your phone is not called as a Smart Phone but it also depends upon the user that how smart choices he makes to install an application for his desired use. Many of us find the trouble getting one particular application which will satisfy the need of the user. From games to utilities to entertainment everything has become so handy and compact that 1MB has again made a mark that how useful this small amount of data can do wonders.

Flooding applications over your smart phone is a threat because in the competitive world where everything changes in a fraction of second you need new ideas to fulfill new needs of a human being.People starting to make New Year's resolutions can turn to an app that aims to help them achieve their goals. But again the question arises WILL IT BE REALLY TRUE TO FULFILL THE HUMAN NEEDS??
