SlickLogin join Google: replace passwords with sounds





SlickLogin joins Google

Google very soon replace passwords with sounds after acquiring Israeli startup and verification app SlickLogin. The app works by listening to unique 'songs' generated when people log in to their online accounts on computers and laptops.


How the app works:

Users can click a SlickLogin button on websites to generate a unique ‘song’.The song is played through the speakers of a computer or laptop.The SlickLogin app then listens to this song and verifies the user’s identity.This song is inaudible to human ears, and can only be picked up by the phone's built-in microphone.It can be used to replace passwords, or as part of a two-step authentication process.SlickLogin announced the acquisition on its website but did not disclose how much the deal was worth.



Google may be looking to add the SlickLogin technology to future versions of its Android software, for example.Google already lets its users enable two-step verification for their online accounts, and offers Face Unlock on Android.With Face Unlock, Android users can use their face to unlock their smartphone or tablet, in place of a PIN or a pattern.

Twitter redesign its website, looks similar to Facebook

Twitter redesign its website


 Twitter is working on  redesign of its webpage that  look like the social media website Facebook. The all new profile page of Twitter has  photo and biography placed well to the left side of the page, giving a lot of space to the header photo.

However, Twitter's magazine-style web layout will only affect the desktop version of Twitter, making the tweets larger. Now,tweets no longer flow vertically in a single column like they do now; instead they spread out with a tile-style layout similar to what one might expect from a Pinterest or Facebook's new Paper app.


Twitter's another new feature offers pop-up notifications with fields for easy replies for direct messages sent through the platform, and similar notices for RTs and favorites, which if merged with other features, will help the social network site don a richer, more complex presentation that offers up additional information.

Windows 9 on the way, Big challenge for Satya Nadella to get Microsoft back on track




Now, Windows 9 by Microsoft


Windows 8 by Microsoft does'nt satisfy many users, becomes reason of Steve Ballmer's resignation. Windows 8 saves Microsoft only mobile,  Windows Phone remains mired with around a 4% market share in the U.S. and under 1% market share in China -- the two largest smartphone markets in the world.

It couldn't have come at a worse time, just when desktop and laptop sales have been shrinking, and tablets and smartphones taking off. Rather than stave off the decline of traditional PCs, Windows 8 helped increase it. And it did nothing to help Microsoft in mobile.

That's why there's so much riding on Windows 9, expected to be released in the middle of 2015, although at least one rumor has it arriving in October of this year.

Windows 9 will likely be the last chance for Microsoft to get on track, Big challenge for Satya Nadella, new CEO of Microsoft.

Even though development of Windows 9 is well under way, for better or worse Nadella will be judged by it. If it's a great operating system, he'll cement his power at Microsoft for years to come. But if it falters, he might not be able to survive long after it.

How to recover Whatsapp data




Recover Whatsapp Data: Messages, Images, Videos

 WhatsApp is available for Android, iOS and Windows Mobile platforms and allows you to stay in touch with almost all your friends without paying anything to your service provider. One of the biggest privileges that we need from any messaging or emailing service is whether it could let you recover any of your deleted messages. And the fact that WhatsApp lets you recover deleted messages, images and videos.

So, below are two ways to recover lost Whatsapp data:

Method 1: This is a simple and pretty straightforward way to restore deleted WhatsApp stuff. All you need to do is uninstall the app and install it back. This would actually use all the backup files, and restore whatever it can.


Method 2: This app stores its backup files by the name, msgstore-YYYY-MM-DD.1.db.crypt. Below are the locations where you can find these backup files for respective OS:
Android: /sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases/msgstore.db.crypt iOS: net.whatsapp.WhatsApp/Documents/ChatStorage.sqlite
Assuming that you have the backup file now, first thing that you need to do is launch a web service, Recover Messages
Click on the Select SQLite File, choose the backup file, click on I Accept (only after reading terms) and then on Scan button. It would take some time, depending on backup file size and your internet speed, and would list all the contents.
Now, click on the appropriate tab to recover the lost data.
