How and why is Television the right medium of communication opportunity?

The technology is advancing day by day with a rapid growth. The technologies like 3g on cell phones platforms or the set boxes in form of DTH (Direct to home) or IPTV (Internet Protocol television) are reaching remote terrains which is now accessible, in form of television over such regions which plays a vital role in educating, informing and entertaining a wide population of audiences, who were hidden from the outer world for centuries through regional native languages channels. 

Television
 
I think Television is a right and an effective medium of communication in today’s time because it has a larger impact on the masses as there are more Television sets than multi theatre screens across the developing countries such as India and across South East Asia.


Today television is being considered as the mouth piece of the people in democracy and it is playing a major part to build democracy around the world giving end to dictatorship of the Army rule or the kingship. The oppressed are rising in form of you tube by making their voice heard, loud and clear. This is what we saw on CNN for a decade ranging from various issues and in recent times the television and youtube was effectively used to inform the world the `happenings in Iran’.


The television is not anymore an exclusive, government enterprise, many media houses and private channels are being launched ranging from various categories. It’s no more about game shows, melodramas or news it’s beyond what we thought a few generations ago, the television is packaged with content from kid’s shows to fashion to 24x7 shopping network.


The viewers are spoilt for choice as the television is bursting out with new channels around the world to the homes. Some cultures believe that the television is invading their culture and influencing western beliefs and ideologies.


Today on a single press of a button with our finger tips on a remote. We can access many important live events without us being physically present on location in 3 dimensional screens in high definition format without any interruption because of efforts by prominent people like media czar Rupert Murdoch and Media mogul Ted Tuner (CNN) shaped today’s scenario that we couldn’t imagine could be possible ever.


This popularity of television have brought in brands to advertise and make the glued audience know their presence via sit-com (`serials’ in India) through commercial breaks to reach the particular target audience through television creating an illusion in the minds of the prospective consumer to sell a product. But again, the long lost Radio is gaining popularity once again. In recent times, in India in form of Fm, but still television is a medium which is not fading in time but improving instead, television has now the capability to play radio on television sets through digital decoders.


The explosion of such vast information through electronic medium i.e. Television should be controlled and censored before reaching the general mass audiences by independent community moderators of individuals on local basis than a national censorship authorities, so that whenever required the general public can give their residuals and grievances in an open forum without any bureaucratic red tape where there is a boom of regional channels in India just like the news channels few years back to explore and enter the new markets.


Television in India have come long way. The television which was a luxury item of the rich and elite has become household basic necessities of the people from urban to rural population. May be the Doordarshan’s programming transition from black and white to colour in the 1982 Asian games improved the Indian broadcasting scenario. Today it is again taking a new leap and lease of life by broadcasting High definition format; telecast Common Wealth 2010 games live from on our new lcd, led and plasma television flat screen set by `Prasharbarti’.


Television can not be destroyed by cinema nor can cinema be destroyed by television. They both will co-exist together for many years to come. We will still cherish the television golden moments, in the history and break new paths in years to come.

I won't be ever silenced by you




I am worried to speak or write coz every thing I speak is termed nonsense and irritable and we call this democracy such a big lie. Living according to certain social norms of morality is too fake. Its better to live under fear of dictatorship and uncertainty. At least the hopes and dreams and the aspirations are only silenced not killed.

Life at MTV India


When MTV came to India I was too young to understand a bit
Why people at MTV where so Crazy!
Jokes, the Crazy One liners,
The New Vj’s and humors were too crazy!
Not to forget the Miss Vj’s making all the boys go Crazy!

Apna Cyrus banyne sab ko Bakra!
Life was crazy, it was lazy N’ easy
Making parents go Crazy
Making babes Dad’s wallets go completely
Empty
As bills of swiping cards go crazy! 
Miniskirts Aur thight top and Jeans,
Bhae sabko,lage A1 first class quality
And then, it happened, when things totally
Went wrong.
When it took a U-turn

It was the Roadies
It was the Roadies
Raghu says “Tere M@$a,Tere B@h&ein%,Tere ^%&* (beep)”
“Kabhi Apni Shakal Ayene mein dekhe hai ? Heroine banega”

It was dark N crazy
Humor was long gone
Reality shows had taken em all!
So there’s rises a freaking question in my mind?
Where is the “Gana” jo tha kise ne koi jamane mein tha gaya?
Splitsvilla mein usko Ladki mile tho hamara kya?
Roadie’s mein bike chalakar kar free tour mila aur prepaid “Shaurat”
mila  tho hamara kya?
Fashion designing show “Make the cut” hai kuch Roadie’s je sa
Miss Teen Diva’s ko scooties mile,
Usme hamara kya?

Mtv Faltu!
Oh! Mtv Faltu! Phir Nahi
Ruk Ruk Khan ya Haghu
But what the hack usme Maza tho aya Na!
MTV Rocks! It still rocks on!
May be the Vj’s are haunted with sum ghostly souls
Par Fantastic 5 mein kya hai?
Yeh kise ko na pata!
Wassup!bole mera India
Yeh yangisthan ka pata India mein kisiko pata bhi hai kya?

“On the job” dekhu mein
Baap chilaye life mein karoge kya?
Hey! MTV Uth dekh
Cyrus Broacha aur Shaukar A.K.A 100 cars in Hindi mein
Bani,Jose,Anhuska,Nikhil aur sare MTV walloh ko mera
Ayushman!
Kiu ki yeh hai “Mera Javan Dil Mera MTV! It’s my MTV…

My Orkut concept homepage design in Photoshop

My Orkut concept homepage design in Photoshop
This discussions has been posted in Orkut Help-Support Section:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/orkut/thread?tid=51e3417bdbfdfc41&hl=en

This is a new orkut concept design I would like to have on Orkut which I designed myself on Photoshop:

This is the link were I uploaded the design :
http://twitpic.com/13dpfk

You can feedback me on:
http://twitter.com/utsabnov

Update:
In the more tab option I think we should have the Orkut Inbox [Message] and the Lists.

It will be also good if Google's orkut uses php codings with html to design web pages like facebook as web pages loads faster than Java.

Photo Albums and scarp counter bugs and error problem should be fixed.

Technoholik Orkut Community Voting :

Do you agree or disagree Google should concentrate more on making Orkut better than making Buzz?

Go pro make yourself your own customized Blog or webpage without spending a single penny

Well you may use word press, Blog spot, twitter for micro Blogging and other such services for sharing your daily life stories or views regarding various issues but the problem with these web sites are that you are on their terms and conditions for the web services you use.


There are too many possibilities to monetize from Blogs that you write.

There is Google’s Ad sense but there though to get activated as they are mostly rejected if you are a user from India and China. There are some competitors of Google like Ad brite, etc. which instantly get activated but it depends upon you. Whichever service you may use the only factor to be considered to be successful is that you have write articles or upload those images that attract users as they come to your web page via Keywords from across various platforms mostly from search engines.

The blogs like word press and Blog spot themes can be customized but it’s though for some especially if you don’t like the interface of widgets of these sites.

Its time now you wanted to have your own web page but the problem with having a web page is that you need to pay from your pocket to register your domain and pay for those monthly charges for bandwidth and web space for megabytes of data you need to store.

You may have heard about free sub domains you may have even tried the web sites like tripod ,etc. who provide free web space up to 20 to 50 mb or more and limited bandwidth with those long annoying url names for the exchange of displaying their ads on your sub domains.

Well if you have used such services you know that they make your web page look nasty and the server speeds are slow.

But not any more after you read this tutorial.

So what do you need:

1. A bit of basic knowledge of HTML and Web designing tools and some software’s like Microsoft Front page, Note Pad and Adobe Dream weaver is the primary web designing software you need to know.

2. You need to have Internet.

3. A lot of patience and an email Id to register some web services.

Steps to be followed:

A.Programming and Designing a web page:
Unlike the Blog where you just copy & paste information like images, videos and text in the text editor. Here you need to write program or codes for your webpage in html language in Microsoft Front page, Note Pad and Adobe Dream weaver or any other software’s then save it in your computer.

If you don’t get what I am saying then learn Html with help of some books, use the internet or enroll yourself in some institutes.

This is a good web page that teaches you or gives an overview on HTML language
http://www.tizag.com/

B. Now we need a sub domain:

So what’s a sub domain?
Sub domains are the third level domains that are used to organize your web site content.

They are just like folders under your root directory.

But they will have a special URL to access.

Eg. http://www.yoursite.com

It’s the regular URL with out a sub domain.

http://products.yoursite.com/

Or

http://yoursite.com/products/

It is an URL with sub domain “products”.

Here the:.com is the first level domain

your site is the second level domain

products is the third level domain


C. Where to create sub domains?

Well there are many web sites providing free sub domains here are some links to free sub domain providers.

They are as follows:

1. http://www.thefreesite.com/Free_Web_Space/

2. http://www.blakut.com/2009/06/top-4-free-web-hosting-providers.html

We would recommend http://www.zymic.com/
(5GB space with 50GB bandwidth)
This web-host serves best for bloggers. Supports PHP, MySQL [All you need to install wordpress]. The only disadvantage is you will not get an automated installer for Blogging software like Wordpress. So you need to install them manually [Which generally does not take more than 10 mins]
Overview
• Monthly price /paid annually/:$0.00 /mo
• Hosted domains: allowed
• Disk space: 5000 MB
• Bandwidth: 50GB/month
• Setup fee: FREE
• Ads: No ads of any kind
• ZHCP (Zymic Hosting Control Panel for easy management)
Emails, Scripting & Databases
• MySQL database: Supports 5 databases
• PhyMyAdmin: Yes
PHP version: 5.1.6
As said above, Zymic is good if you can install PHP based software at your own. Also their servers are pretty fast and they give unlimited number of websites to be hosted.

D. Make an account to any of the sub domains website and upload your html coding.

Now copy all the html codings of your web pages that you have designed which you have saved in the computer to your host of your sub domain sites file manager and upload them properly.

Make sure all the web pages Hyperlinks and data like images, audios,etc. are properly intra-inked to the sub domain site url's [links].

Any hyperlink of images, audio or other web pages, etc. are wrongly linked then it will display a error message “Page Can not be displayed” so make sure you link your data properly.

Now you have your site set upped.

Here is an example of my web site http://www.utsab.co.nr/

E. Now we need to shorten the long url links of your web page

We need to do so that it can be easily memorized so that you can share your website with others with ease and to give a professional feel.

Go to following free websites like

1. http://www.co.nr/

2. http://www.co.cc/

Create an account give your web page a description

Wallah!!! You got your self a shortened web address in world wide web

Here is an example of my web site web address

This is what my web page/website URL was before I signed upped with above web page which shortens your long url's

http://utsab.uuuq.com/utsab.html

This is my web address after I shortened my web address with one of the above mentioned web sites

http://utsab.co.nr/

What this two website does is that it redirects your long URL of your sub domains web address via shorter url's.
1. http://www.co.nr/

2. http://www.co.cc/

But sub domains redirecting web sites like co.nr forces its users to put their own web sites embed ads on every web page of the user web page that direct to there web sites.

Now you can add some widgets like the hit counter which can keep track of number of visitors gadgets like share this, widget box,etc.

Now you can share your customized web page among your friends and Enjoy!
