Why Online Shopping??

High Street shopping is the old traditional and well-known way of how people buy their Items, while Internet shopping came into people’s life during a period of technological advancements.

Online shopping is making things much easier in terms of time. The only thing you have to do is going to the internet page, choose the product you want and buy it. After that you have to wait less than four days and whatever you bought it is infront of your door. To go shopping online is very important for some people becouse you can buy food as well as things you need in the household and if you are not able to go out any more for any reason. You have got everthing you need on the internet shop. Another good opportunity in online shopping is you are able to compare prices much easier.

The weakness of online shopping is that you have to be really carefull in choosing the site you want to buy the things you need. Some sites just want  youre money and won't give you anything . Another bis problem is the quality of the things you get. If you order food for example and you get old or bad one you are able to send it back but you ain't got anything for that. Online shopping is always quite tricky, you have to look at the prices and compare them to the other sites to be sure you are not paying way to much for the goods you want.

Google

The internet is one  the biggest fastest forms of communication we use in this world. It's used to connect people to one another from any point on the earth. The internet also consist of a large number of search engine. Each search engine can look up and find about anything you are looking for. One of the biggest search engines today is google. Google is a play on the word googol.

Google is a global technology leader, focused on improving the ways people connect with information. Through innovations in web search and advertising, Google is now a top Internet destination and possesses one of the most recognized brands in the world. Available to anyone with an Internet connection, Google maintains the world's largest online index of web sites and other content.

In overview Google’s mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Since its creation in 1995, Google has since evolved not only into the world’s largest Internet search engine, but is also one of the Internets largest advertisers. 

Google Apps for Education can help streamline academic tasks like essay writing and class scheduling. A group of students can work together on a piece of work in Google Docs, seeing changes in real time rather than waiting for versions to be sent via email. Students can see exactly when their professors are available and vice versa with Google Calendar. By removing these time-consuming bottlenecks, Apps frees you up to spend more time on learning and teaching.

SMS Language Effect!!!

destryng = Destroying, Nite= Night, U=you

A new dictionary is being by SMS language. The words stated above and their correct forms tell us the story. SMS these days has become very easy and cheap way of sharing thoughts or conveying some message.

We should think about this seriously. Supposing a hypothetical situation, you have got degree. And now you start sending resumes to company, or rather a covering letter with that Resume. And you use “I m a grad from XYZ college” instead of “I am a graduate from XYZ college“. The recruiter after reading your resume will throw it in trash bin and will not think of having a second look at it. And thus even being a capable, talented and most deserving candidate for the job will not get an offer letter. And this, only because of SMS language habit. 

I am not saying don’t use SMS language. Of course the abbreviations reduce the letter count in SMS and thus you can add up some extra message too with the same economy. But that should be limited to SMS only. You should make some deliberate efforts so that you don’t use the SMS grammar in other forms of letter writing or texting.

Using both the types effectively is a good thing. But often things happen unknowingly and the differentiating line between these two types is very blur. So be cautious.

Technology makes Difference!!!

Although many people blame technology for destroying nature and causing pollution, and say that it is the worst evil in the world , I still believe that it has greatly changed our lives for the better as we hardly imagine what would happen if we went for a day without technology.

 

Technology is very popular in our daily life thanks to its advantages. As we know, firstly, technology in household helps people do the housework. For example, housewives do not need to wash manually, but they can use washing machine.

Another reason why I advocate the viewpoint that technology has made the world a better place to live is that it makes the world smaller. Nowadays people can travel faster and easier to other places by car, bus and air-plane, and see many new interesting things around the world. In addition, they communicate with people in different countries through the Internet and phones, which saves them lots of time and money. 

But the most worthwhile benefit technology has brought to us is that it makes us healthier and happier. Clear progress in medicine, use new technologies to diagnose and combat diseases make therapy more effective. It allows us to cure serious diseases such as cancer and cardiopathy. Statistics show that life expectancy is getting longer. In Europe, for example, today life expectancy has climbed past 80 and people are glad to be alive; the longer they live in good health, the happier they feel they are.

Smartphones Effect

Today, smartphones are in the hands of almost every student. It has become so common that young children are starting to ask their parents for one. Although nobody can deny the ability to find and use information fast on a smartphone, many people feel students should not have one. These smartphones are effecting verbal communication, writing skills, as well as increasing laziness in our students. 

Verbal communication is increasingly becoming a problem in today’s society and it is because of smartphones. Our generation is known as the “texting generation”. These days, students talk to their friends using text messages or calling. This takes away our ability to talk to someone face to face. It affects college graduates not being confident enough to present themselves properly in an interview with a future employer. Texting interaction leaves out basic skills like, clear speaking, body language, eye contact with the person to whom they are speaking too, and the ability to listen and stay focused on what the person is saying.

More and more these days students go to their phones or computers when needing to write an essay. Students search Google and various other search engines to help find the most up to date information, although the information is handy and very tempting, it is creating pure laziness in todays society. These smartphones contain encyclopedias, dictionaries and as we all know, the internet. There is no exerted effort into collecting this information, students are too lazy to read a book and quite frankly, some just don’t have time. Also, students are being distracted by cellphones. It is causing lack of focus and discipline. Often times students will sit down to study and all of the sudden hear their phone go off, and they’ll get self-indulged into the conversation and no longer continue to study.

GULZAR’s Beauty of Words

Through his illustrious career, lyricist Gulzar has managed to connect with his audience, through songs like Tum Aa Gaye Ho and Dhan tan nan

Gulzar has had an illustrious career graph and his current phase is one of his best. By blending contemporary lyrics with trendsetting music for Dhan tan nan in Kaminey, Gulzar has raised the bar for music in the Hindi film industry. It is interesting to trace the lyricist's career, from his initial foray with SD Burman to his iconic partnership with AR Rahman and now, a pursuit to be accessible to the youth.

The second distinct phase was when Gulzar came into his own with movies like Mausam, Kinara, Khushboo and Ijaazat. Gulzar kept the inspiration to write good poetry going for movies when all around him music and good lyrics in general were at an all time low. The mid '70s and '80s would be the nadir of our film music, yet Gulzar did not fail to illuminate it with songs like Tum aa gaye ho and Noor aa gaya hai.

After a short lull, a partnership with AR Rahman's innovative sound and melodies on Dil Se ...became the perfect foil for Gulzar's earthy and Sufi poetry. Dil Se ... marked the third phase and his second unbeaten innings. The creativity of the pair would fetch an Oscar ten years later.

Music in the new millennium has changed and with it changed the grammar of song-writing. The typical Mukhda-interlude-Antra phase is slowly dying. Different genres, bold arrangements and even bolder instrumentalism have emerged. One would think a purist like Gulzar, like his peers Sahir and Shailendra, would throw in the towel and fade into oblivion. Instead he wrote Kajra re and Beedi Jalai Le. Both are high-energy songs which rely on rhythm over melody and cater to the masses. Yet lyrically both the songs manage to rise above mediocrity. The tracks have an aesthetic vocabulary with lyrics like Baton me kimam ki khushboo and Aisa kaate ke daant ka nishaan chhod de.

Gulzar has managed to straddle two generations of songwriting with ease. Gulzar can turn a sweet feeling of love on its head with the raunchy Namak Ishq ka, can urge the beloved to wake in the Lori Jag ja and can talk about deceit in Naina thag lenge. All these songs along with Beedi ... were part of one soundtrack! Only Gulzar can make a derogatory word like 'kaminey' seem alluring when he writes, Ek dil se dosti thi, yeh huzoor bhi kaminey.

Do the saas-bahu serials depict Indian reality?

Kahani ghar ghar ki, Kyunki saas bhi kabhi bahu thi, Kumkum, Saat phere - the list is endless. The age-old saga of a daughter-in-law finding acceptance in her new family after marriage. Her unflinching resolve to solve each and every real and imaginary problem of her husband’s entire clan. Her stoic resistance to worldly pleasures and temptations. And all the scheming, vampish obstacles in her path in the form of interfering sisters-in-law, fiendish ex-girlfriends and the all-important mother-in-law. Add to that a propensity to garish sets, pancake make-up at all hours of the day and a jamboree of all festivals. One really wonders which world these people inhabit.

It all started with the success story of Ekta Kapoor’s K serials. The formula was quickly adopted by all and sundry. The same convoluted stories, with interwoven subplots and situations. You’ve seen one and you have seen them all! Yet, rarely, do you get to see such characters in real life. The concepts may have been inspired from common situations in Indian households but they are exaggerated to such an extent that they look far-fetched and irritating. Over the years India has moved on. It is so rare to see entire joint families with over 30 members thrive under one roof. Time has proved that such arrangements are not very feasible. Yet, our serials continue to highlight these deranged joint families, where relatives are scheming to literally kill each other behind the garb of superficial closeness.

If an actor decides to leave a particular serial, he is conveniently killed in an accident. But his dead body is never found just in case he needs to be revived after a few episodes (read if he/she agrees to a reasonable enough pay package). Or the character is simply replaced with a new actor justifying the change as a miracle of plastic surgery. Tell me of such a thing happening in your immediate surroundings and I’ll teach you how to name serials that sell!

Why can’t we have something refreshingly realistic such as a Frasier, Everybody Loves Raymond or even Friends for that matter? Why must we get to see nauseating saas-bahu serials day and night? If the average Indian does not relate to them anymore, one wonders how the NRIs suffer them. Is it just a way of catching up the latest sari trends in India or telling your children what Diwali, Dussehra and Holi are all about?
