Tech n Fun

India, which is supposed to be the fastest growing/developing country of the Asia and the world. Well, apart from its economic importance worldwide the country is better known for its social n cultural diversity. Here one can see every color of life and mostly during the festive seasons.

We, here in India celebrate a lots of festivals making us happy and cheering for a good cause. When we celebrate a festival, it not only have some mythological or cultural importance, its because we tend to celebrate things with each other, with our family, with our guests, with our friends. During the daily race of being the superior, these moments cherish us and make us feel happy.

During this season, which is supposed to be the best time of year, a lots of festivals are celebrated like Navratres, dusshera, diwali, Id etc etc. Although, the whole year is full of festivities and there is a festival almost every month.

Here we do not only celebrate Id and ramzaan, Navratres too which is enough to show the unity in the diversity. During Navratres every day is full of spiritualism, worship, enjoyment. All nine days of Navratres people across the country celebrate it with different approach but with same intent. Where there is Dandia celebration in Western part (now in the whole North India), Durga puja is the biggest venture in Eastern India. At tenth day, Ravana which is the trademark, yes supposed to be the trademark of evil and bad is burnt along with his siblings. The burning is a message of victory of good over bad. Again this has a deep mythological meaning and relation but now still we celebrate it with full enjoyment and beleif.

This is all part of Colors of India, where people with full excitment and joy celebrate festivities. As soon the Dushrea will be over, the prepareness for Diwali, the most lightful festival will start.

What is recession? What is economic meltdown ? Who cares about H1N1 ? The world and the country too is highly distressed by these issues, but when its about people's faith n aastha nothing else matters. Guests, foreigners come India to see all this because they cant see all these happenings anywhere else in the world.

This is the uniteness and uniqueness of India and its people. I heartly wishes you a very happy festive season.

OperaMini, the leader in mobile browser has just launched its next version. Opera Mini 5 beta is out now and you can download it from Opera's site.

Tabbed Browsing : The first thing you'll notice is its tabbed browsing. As mobile browsing is increasing day by day with higher bandwidth speed through EDGE n 3G, a tabbed browser was indeed necessary. So good feature by Opera.

Speed : I thoroughly enjoyed surfing on this browser as the speed is really enhanced. It compresses your page by about 90% resulting faster page loading.

Password Manager : The next thing you may notice is its password manager, which is a very good feature introduced in this release. Now no more need to remember your username and password, let Opera Mini do it for you.

Scroll n zoom : Apart from viewing the mobile sites, you can switch to full version anytime and without any hassle. It has a really good point n zoom cursor. Go to a part of a page and zoom there to view. The scroller is also very nice and fast from previous versions.

Interactive Speed Dial : Just like the Speed Dial (bookmarks) in PC web browser, all Speed Dials are at the home page. So just click any one of them and go on.

Touch n Keypad : The new Opera Mini is suitable for both touch screen based mobile phones and normal screen keypad based mobile phones. So all touchscreen users now will enjoy more with this.

I really praise Opera for their new launch but one thing that i didn't liked was the new Menu which opens a new bar on top. I am more comfortable with the old menu. Although it is graphical and looks good but the menu should be at the bottom, atleast for me.

As this is the beta release so there were some features missing, like download manger, synchornisation etc. Hope the final version have all n more guddies.

Download it from here and share your experience.
