BEST DATA CARD AND PLANS IN INDIA
Nowadays everyone has a Laptop in India because the pricing of the laptops have come from high xxxxxRs to low xxxxxRs and now everyone is in need of a wireless internet connection to connect to the internet and always stay in touch. All the shopping malls and airports are now equipped with WiFi internet connections, but what is the option when there is no WiFi and you want to stay online while travelling?
Thats the time when you are looking for a wireless Datacard or USB option to get connected wireless all over India while travelling and let me introduce you with the Top3 available wireless data card connections -
- Reliance Netconnect – Reliance is currently the best wireless connection in India which can be used for both
laptops and desktops and the monthly subscriptions start from just 400Rs/month and currently a promotional offer is running where in a free data card is offered. The download speeds are ranging from 15-25kbps when you opt in for unlimited data download package which is the best download speed offered in India on wireless internet connections.
- Tata Indicom Plug 2 Surf – Tata indicom broadband offers a internet compatible connection for laptops and PC’s where in you can surf internet anywhere in india with internet speeds upto 153 kbps though the practical speed is 20kbps only. The USB modem rental starts from 99Rs/month with time based and data based plans. You can get more information on this at ichoose.in
- Airtel Wireless – With Airtel’s Wireless Internet, you have the freedom to access the Internet anytime, anywhere across India. It enables Internet, Email, and Office applications with real-timesecure VPN access to corporate applications whilst on the move.Airtel Data Card is the superior PC Data Card solution which delivers wireless internet capabilities to laptops and notebooks, by providing EDGE and GPRS technologies in a single PC Card package.
From the above 3 wireless USB/Data Card connections iam personally very much satisfied with Reliance Netconnect connections and i would recommend it to anyone who would be planning to buy one, but again always go for the external USB connection rather than the data card which is plugged into the internal slot in the laptops. Also review, rate and post your experiance on the best broadband connections in india.BEST HIGH SPEED BROADBAND PLANS IN INDIA

Launch of Apple iPhone 5s and 5C in India – November 1st 2013
The Apple iPhone 5s and 5c have already entered the US and UK markets a couple week back, and finally the all awaited launch of Apple iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C in India is scheduled on November 1st, just two days before the Eve of Diwali. The launch of the iPhone 5S will definitely will be on the probe, because of the features packed in, which would easily tempt any buyer who is planning to buy a smartphone that would be well worth it for the coming couple of years at least, and especially because of its 64GB version and it is 20% lighter, 18% thinner and has 12% less volume compared to its predecessor. Its design has been improved and is eye catching. The review of the iPhone 5S was generally positive in the US market where it is already available, considering it to be one of the the best smartphones available in the market because of its updated hardware. The iPhone range including the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, sold nine million units in their weekend of release breaking all the records for iPhone’s in US. Apple will be expecting similar kind of response from India and other countries on November 1st.
The iPhone 5s comes with the Apple-designed A7 64-bit chip with the M7 Motion Co-processor, and there’s a 8 megapixel iSight camera with True Tone flash, which has two flashes combining to form a perfect color combination, and on the front, there’s a Face Time camera for the video calling. The Touch ID fingerprint sensor system built directly into the home button is uses for the authentication and unlocking the phone. It can register with more than five fingers. The iPhone 5S was also the first Apple device to be launched with the newest version of the iOS mobile operating system, iOS 7. The iPhone has an 10 cm (4 inch) LCD (liquid crystal display), with the screen resolution of 640 x 1136 pixels at 326ppi pixel density. It has only five buttons. The 5S includes Siri, an intelligent personal assistant and knowledge navigator, it uses a natural language interface to answer questions and give suggestions. The iPhone 5s can capture slow motion videos, which means you’ll be seeing a lot of slo-motion videos on Facebook and YouTube. This feature is added as one more swipe to the left while shooting video. This slow motion video is recorded at 720 Pixel instead of 1080 pixel making it enough for sharing.
iPhone 5s comes with Applications such as Facebook, Calendar which can be synchronized with Facebook events, and many other applications can be downloaded and used, it has all other features as the preceding versions of iPhone. The iPhone 5C comes will all new design in multiple colors almost getting a look like the iPhone 5.
The unlocked 16GB iPhone 5S that sells around US$700 after the post taxes will be priced US$ 862 (Rs. 53,500) in India. Whereas the 32GB costs Rs. 62,500 and Rs. 71,500 for the 64GB model. The iPhone 5C will be available for Rs. 41,900 for the 16GB model and Rs. 53,500 for the 32GB model after all the post taxes.

Google Adsense Custom Ad Sizes – The Good & Bad About this New Feature to Publishers
The Google Adsense team had contacted us a few weeks back and asked to remove the custom js ad units which we were running on our network of blogs. These were the ads which we were allowed to run on a few selected number of blogs depending on the traffic and the demographics. We have been running custom ad sizes on our blogs which generally were the single ad units but with different fonts and sizes and which would not totally look like a advertisement. All of the sudden someone from Google had contacted us with the following email :
Dear Publisher,
We are currently in the process of migrating publishers from Custom JavaScript formats to standard iframes. By moving publishers over, we are able to offer more features, innovating faster and more efficiently. As such your Custom JavaScript publisher features will be turned off on 6th December 2013.We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.For technical questions and troubleshooting, please send an email to our AdSense support team while logged into your Google account.
Best regards,
We were quite confused and when we got in touch with them, we were told that the results from the custom ad units were not par with the default ad units and hence Google is taking a decision to stop serving ads through this option. This was a kind of shock because we have had done a few tests and found that the custom ad units were generally giving us better results, but now are told that its actually bad for the publishers and hence we should switch back to the default ad units by Dec 6th.
You can clearly see that the revenue’s actually increased after the ad units were switched, this could either be a co-incidence or a truth which the Google representative had mentioned to us.
But this week it was again a surprise to know that the same custom ad units were now available to everyone, which means that anyone with a Adsense account can set the size of the ad units and place them on their web pages. Out of curiosity we are confused on why this major change all of the sudden when Google is very strict about its policies and why does it want people to make their web pages fill with ads in terms of content to ads ratio.
The Good About this : We feel that this new change would allow many publishers to set the ads based on their website design, and make them look better. In short giving them higher CTR because of better placement and some way chances that their revenues can increase too.
The Bad About this : Apart from the regular ad units, now you would find the web pages filled with larger ad units, considering that the new system allows to have one side of the ad unit to have a size larger than 300px, we could see people hosting ad units like 300×800 which is acceptable. A demo of this is partly available on Ezinearticles.com which has been hosting a large ad unit on the sidebar, but what would the look be if there is a similar horizontal ad above the content?
According the Google Adsense team you would get 434216 ad unit sizes which you can host on your websites but personally I feel that this is something they should have offered to a limited number of publishers based on their account authority in terms of how old the account is, the number of issues related to the account and the revenues.
If you plan to use these new ad units, then I would totally recommend you to do a A/B Split Test for a week on your websites by switching to custom units for the first week followed by default ad units the next week and then depending on the revenue reports and the Google analytics you should device whats best for you.
Let us know, how are the results of these new units performing for you.
