New game enter in market: FRUIT NINJA

May be you some of you know about it. FRUIT NINJA slice game for all platforms.




HERE SOME HISTORY OF GAME:
                        FRUIT NINJA is a video gamedeveloped by Halfbrick Studios. It was released April 21, 2010 for iPod Touch and iPhone devices, July 12, 2010 for the iPad, September 17, 2010 for Android OS devices. It was released for Windows Phone 7 on December 22, 2010. Also, in March 2011, versions for Samsung's Bada and Nokia's Symbian began to be distributed on their respective official application channels. Just prior to E3 2011 Fruit Ninja Kinect was released for the Xbox 360 on August 10, 2011 and utilizes the Kinect peripheral. In the game the player must slice fruit that is thrown into the air by swiping the device's touch screen with their finger or in the case of the Xbox 360 version, the player's arms and hands. It features multiple gameplay modes, leaderboards and multiplayer.The game was well received by critics and consumers alike; as of September 2010 sales have exceeded three million downloads, with the total reaching four million in December 2010. Total sales across all platforms totaled over 20 million in March 2011. Reviewers felt that the low cost of the game combined with addictive gameplay yielded an excellent value. They further lauded the support and updates provided by Halfbrick, who brought online multiplayer, achievements and leaderboards to the game. Some critics felt the game's difficulty curve was uneven.


HOW TO PLAY:                
                       In Fruit Ninja, the player slices fruit with a blade controlled via a touch pad. As the fruit is thrown onto the screen, the player swipes their finger across the screen to create a slicing motion, attempting to slice the fruit in half. Extra points are awarded for slicing multiple fruits with one swipe, and players can use additional fingers to make multiple slices simultaneously. Players must slice all fruit; if three pieces of fruit are missed the game ends, but upon reaching scores that are multiples of one hundred (i.e. 100, 200, 300, etc), the player will gain an extra life (unless they have not missed a piece of fruit already). Bombs are occasionally thrown onto the screen, and will also end the game should the player slice them.

Trademark Infringement: Facebook vs. Timelines



You may have read the stories about the recent lawsuit against Facebook in which Timelines.com claims the company infringes upon its “Timeline” trademark.


This is Trademark issue on Internet Traffic.



Here is a section from the court complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court of Chicago:
Facebook’s use of the term “Timeline,” and its redirection of Internet traffic from Timelines’ Facebook page to Facebook’s new “Timeline” offering, infringes on Timelines’ federally registered trademarks in that it causes confusion as to the source of the services offered to users of the Internet. 
Indeed, Facebook’s “Timeline” offering and its misdirection of users attempting to access Timelines’ offering is intended to prevent Internet users from accessing information about Timelines.com and to allow users to instead use Facebook’s “Timeline” offering. Timelines v Facebook


Who are study right now topics related to Intellectual Property kind of subject. This case study is useful for them. How Facebook Infringe Timelines.com's pageview traffic.

GOOGLE+ is GOOGLE itself


“Until now, every single Google property acted like a separate company. Due to the way we grew, through various acquisitions and the fierce independence of each division within Google, each product sort of veered off in its own direction.

… But Google+ is Google itself. We’re extending it across all that we do—search, ads, Chrome, Android, Maps, YouTube—so that each of those services contributes to our understanding of who you are.”

- Bradley Horowitz(VP of Google)







Google is going plan longggggg. Like a FACEBOOK they have own ads & publicity(ad sense) to make revenue(money) but still Google not make that with Google+, they never started any advertising on Google+ until now. 
                                                                    (you have cake in hand but not even trying to eating it)

Why? you logged in one account of Google & it will become open id for other services like blogger, gmail, reader, you tube  picasa. Google take long way on social networking. it will leave Facebook & twitter behind but not right now. Company's goal clear about it:  

Marge all the things & Getting it on one platform for the Users.


So, who are not joining Google+ now, they will sure become a part of this one day. So, wait for that day.

Facebook Timeline: New interface with profile page



You’ve been hearing about all the wonderful new Facebook features, and like us, you’re probably super-eager to get started with them.

If you’re willing to go through a series of eight steps, you can get into the brand-new Facebook Timeline right now.
Simply follow the instructions in our gallery below, and suddenly you’ll be basking in a new world of Facebook goodness, just like the developers are. Follow the instructions carefully, and good luck.
First, you’ll need to go to the Facebook developer page, which is a part of your Facebook account. Make sure you’re logged into your Facebook account, and then simply follow this link to get started.


Step 1




1. When you get here, click "allow."


Step 2




2. Click "create new app"

Step 3




3. Name it whatever you want, and give it whatever namespace you'd like -- it doesn't matter. Click the checkbox "I agree to the platform privacy policy." And then click Continue, pass the security check by filling in the Captcha, and you'll be ready for the next step.

Step 4




4. After you've verified yourself as a human, you'll reach this screen, where you'll need to click "Open Graph" on the left side.

Step 5




5. You'll see the next screen, entitled "Get Started with Open Graph" -- fill in anything you want (it doesn't matter) in those fields under the heading "start by defining one action than one object for your app." Click Get Started.

Step 6




6. On this screen, do nothing except scroll to the bottom and click "Save Changes and Next." Do the same thing on the next screen.

Step 7




7. You'll be taken to this screen. Wait a few minutes, and then go to your Facebook homepage. That's where you'll be invited to enable Timeline. Be patient at this point -- sometimes it requires you to wait before the changes take effect.

Step 8




8. When you go back to your Facebook homepage, you'll see this. Success! Click Get It Now, and you're in!

You've Done It!




Here's where you fiddle with your timeline, set it up the way you like it, and when you click Publish Now, your Timeline goes live. Or, you can wait until Thursday, September 29, 2011, and it'll go live on its own. If you want to get into your timeline from another computer, the address for this developer's version is located at this URL:

http://www.facebook.com/[yourusername]?sk=timeline and of course [yourusername] is your own Facebook user name.

Survey says Brits would prefer to live without a toilet than without Facebook


Yes, you read that correctly. In a recent study by London Science Museum, the 3,000 adults surveyed revealed that Facebook ranked 5th out of 50 things they couldn’t live without. In fact, Facebook ranks right up there with sunshine and clean drinking water.
The results were meant to point towards the science museum’s latest exhibition, Water Wars: Fight The Food Crisis, which showcases a need for fresh water to grow crops, along with the emerging technologies meant to help solve the problem. One of the more shocking results: Internet connection is more valuable to those polled than clean water.
Science Museum Exhibition Manager, Sarah Richardson, appeared to be equally astonished.
“Brits are obsessed by the weather, so it’s not surprising sunshine was rated as the top thing we couldn’t live without. But to say you can’t live without material things over drinking water is crazy.
It seems having fresh drinking water is something that many of us take for granted but is becoming scarcer in many parts of the world. If you see how little water others have to drink or grow food you soon realise water is fast becoming a luxury for millions.”
Below, take a peek at a few more shocking findings.
