The Smartphone Kingpin

As we begin this brand New Year we have a lot to look forward to. The successor to the Samsung Galaxy S3 for one is a mouth-watering thought, while I’m sure all tech enthusiasts will be keen on finding out how Apple respond to claims their reign of dominance has come to an end. However, there is also a great technological year to look back on, one filled with surprise leaders (Samsung Galaxy S3) and of course, another highly anticipated iPhone release. However, which smartphones won 2012? Which smartphones were the kingpins?

HTC Droid DNA

There are many things that are special with HTC’s Droid DNA. Firstly the Android handset features a big 5-inched super LCD screen, that’s bright and boasts a sharp 1080p resolution which translates into 440ppi.

Secondly, this super phone is positively packed with cutting edged hardware and software. Running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, the Droid DNA is powered by a fire-breathing 1.5 GHz quad core Snapdragon S4 pro processor. For memory there’s a roomy 2GB of RAM and 16GB for internal storage.

The smartphone also has a fantastic design. At 0.38 inches thick and a mere 0.16 inches thick at its thinnest point, this phone is extremely trim. What further enhances the Droid DNA’s design is the way the display’s glass enhances to the edges. The combination of black and red metallic strips on the side gives the DNA a very futuristic style.

Above the screen is a 2MP front-facing camera, capable of shooting video at 1080p HD. At the back is an impressive 8MP camera. This camera is packed with many features and shooting modes, such as an HDR mode, panorama, continuous shooting and the ability to snap shots while recording video.

Other nice features include beats audio processing technology, the latest sense4 plus user interface and 4G connection capabilities.

Samsung Galaxy S3

The Samsung Galaxy S3 is large, smooth, very thin and packed with lots of software and hardware goodies. This Android phone hits all the marks of smartphone excellent. From the large screen, to the fast processor, to the 8 megapixel camera, LTE support and reasonable price tag, it is the perfect phone.

The phone’s design is the best out of all the smartphones this year and almost made me sell my iPhone. Its plastic cover is solid, chic and smooth and the phone’s beautiful and large screen serves to add to its design. Gone are the days when we’d need to buy and sell mobile phone cases to keep our phones looking chic and the Galaxy S3 is proof that a phone can be permanently coloured plastic and highly fashionable.

The Galaxy S3’s screen is a 4.8 inched super-AMOLED display with an HD resolution. It looks crisp, colourful and bright and it makes an excellent platform for viewing videos, photos and web text.

The S3’s 8-megapixel camera with 1080p video recording is more than up to the task of fulfilling your photo and video shooting capabilities. Video is smooth and in focus and works just as well outdoors as it does indoors. The phone boasts a pretty cool face tagging feature that remembers faces from previous photos and tags them.

The iPhone 5

In 2011, the iPhone 4S disappointed a lot of people, because it looked the same despite having a lot of improvements inside. The iPhone 5 however, comes with a major redesign however, and that is in addition to 4G LTE and a larger screen.

This is the first time that the iPhone has gone for a larger screen. At 4 inches the iPhone’s screen while larger isn’t necessarily big for a smartphone and ensures that the feel of it being an iPhone isn’t lost. The smartphone is also thinner and lighter than ever.

In terms of hardware, the iPhone 5 boasts a superb A6 processor, which doubles all round CPU and graphics capabilities, causing everything to be practically twice as fast as that of its predecessor.

Battery life in the iPhone 5 is an improvement on the 4S, albeit only by a fraction.

The front facing camera is HD 720p and takes sharp photographs and crisp video. The iSight camera is at 8-megapixel like the Galaxy S3 and Droid DNA and boasts a built in panorama mode that enables the shooting of a mega 28-megapixel photo.

Overall, this is the best iPhone yet and its technology is supported by fantastic features and apps.

The Worldwide Phenomenon Chat Roulette

 

 

 

Ok so at some stage each and every one of us has wondered what it’s like to be over the other side of the world at any given time, we often wonder what it would be like to communicate with someone over in another country, we wonder what time it is in another country and how many people are asleep at that sudden moment.
Did you know that you can actually connect with these people?

Chat roulette is something that shocked all of us, excited many of us and appalled a few of us.

So what is it?

Chatroulette is an online website, essentially a chat site that pairs two complete strangers from around the world at the same time and invites them to a webcam based conversation in which  the pair can converse (if they speak the same language) and also chat via a text box if perhaps there is a language barrier or one partner doesn’t have a microphone. The match is completely random and you are able to skip the conversation and move onto the next one at any time.

The site itself was created by a 17 year old high school student in Russia, Andrey Ternovskiy. Ternovskiy suggested the concept of the site originally arose from video conversations he had had with his friends on Skype and the name of the site came from after watching “The Deer Hunter”.

The website was so popular that even celebrities have claimed to be using the site such as: Kim Kardashian, Drake, Professor Green, Olly Murs, Nicole Richie and Kelly Osbourne.
Although what began as a lighthearted way of communicating with those on the other side of the world, Chatroulette soon began to cause controversy and upset as many people began misusing the site by displaying “R rated” content. Since this was brought to attention the website soon brought an 18 and over user rule and it strictly prohibits inappropriate content although this is hard to monitor constantly.

Overall the website was an immediate success with millions of users connecting to communicate with one another worldwide, this was certainly something brand new and original that no one had ever seen before! Hoping to keep content appropriate for all ages the website hopes to continue to be a fun and innovative place where people can connect with each other!

The Benefits of Live Chat Software

 

Many people really dislike automated phone services. It is easy to understand why consumers don’t want to sit around pushing numbers on their phones when they were hoping to speak to a live operator. This is one of the primary reasons in the surge of interest in live chat software.

Talking to People

If you cannot actually have a one on one conversation with a telephone operator, live chat software gives you the next best thing. This is a feature that can be installed at your website and then initiated automatically (i.e. a dialogue or pop-up box appears asking if the customer would like to speak to a live operator) or it can be something triggered by the customer clicking an active link.

Service or Sales

You have to also remember that live chat software is not something that is limited strictly to the customer service end of things.

For example, some live chat software systems allow you to actually monitor each visitor as they navigate their way around your site.

So, that means that you might ask the software to follow specific or “intelligent” business rules. These rules would be able to identify a specific pattern in a website visitor’s behavior and then launch a dialogue box to interact in a very effective way.

An E-Commerce Example

Need an example? Let’s say that your website is an ecommerce site with an online shopping cart. You can tell the live chat software to monitor the shopper’s behavior and to recognize when they are about to navigate away from the site without purchasing the items in the shopping cart.

For example, as they hit any area of the browser to go to a different site, the software will cue a box to spring to life and remind them that they haven’t purchased the items or even just ask them if they really want to navigate away from the page.

Remember too that sales can result from the ability to interact directly with the client when they are at the site. For instance, live chat software will often be able to engage with prospective clients by triggering the “invitation” to live chat any questions or concerns about the product(s) on the page. This sort of “real time” interaction is definitely one sure way to convert leads or prospects into actual sales.

Immediate Support

When your software is necessary for real time customer service or technical support, you should also recognize the immediacy that the chat option provides. For example, this software is going to enable your operators to work with a handful of clients at any given time, and will not require customers to wait “on hold”.

Statistics also indicate that the live and real time interactions tend to resolve issues at rates that email and phone exchanges just cannot match. Clearly, there are profound benefits for instituting some real time chat options on your site.

Separating fact from fiction when it comes to online communication and technology, Bob A Andrews is a self-professed geek and author who writes on a variety of topics including live chat software. Always looking for the highest quality information he usually does his research at LivePerson.com.

Five Reasons To Consider Live Chat Software

If you are thinking about increasing your website traffic then you should look no farther than to live chat software to help with the task. The simple truth of the matter is that the competitive world of internet start-ups has made it hard to carve out a name for yourself in any industry, even within the niche industries.

For this very reason you should think of one advance that new innovative website designers are using to offer perfect customer service and flawless marketing: live chat software. The following are five reasons that you should think about utilizing live help software on your website.

Offer true 24/7 support

While it is true that you can provide 24/7 support via phone or email, the essence of 24/7 support is that there is always someone there to answer questions. With live chat software if you outsource agents to help you then you can truly offer this type of support, which is especially important online since people tend to shop online at every possible time of the day. This is one way that the online shopping market is completely different than any other market, because you can make sales around the clock regardless of your actual hours.

Offer instant support

Outside of the ability to offer true around the clock support with live support chat software, you can also offer instant support which no form of customer service has the ability to provide. Phone support usually results in queues of at least a few minutes, and forces customers to go outside of the internet to receive. Email communication takes at least a few minutes for emails to bounce back and forth, which is plenty of time for a consumer to navigate away and find something attractive on another website. However, live website chat support happens within a second on the same medium, the internet page, and therefore is the only sure-fire way to offer instant support to your customers.

Lure customers towards purchases

Website chat software can be used for more reasons than just customer service, because you can contact customers in the same way that they contact you. Therefore, if you notice a customer that has been browsing for a while or circling between two products you can reach out to them and ask if they have any questions. Sometimes those who seem to be lurking while browsing are simply looking for an answer, and if you offer to give it to them then you can talk them into the sale. You can also reach out to customers that have been browsing for awhile and offer them an extra sale or promotion that can help encourage their sale which otherwise you may have missed.

Track buying trends

Most Live Chat Software also comes with applications that allow you to track the IP addresses of your browsers allowing you to see where your main target audience is from. This information also allows you to figure out what your primary traffic audience is and what products are selling the best. By utilizing this information you can figure out how to develop your next marketing campaign making your live support chat software worth even more to you as both a customer service tool and a marketing tool.

Develop customized FAQs

Finally, you can also take the buying trends and the questions that you receive the most on your live support software to figure out which product pages may need improvement. For instance, if you notice a common question you can clarify product pages to ensure you never miss a sale over simple confusion in the future. You can also compile the frequently asked questions to make a much better customized set of FAQs that is truly suited to your customer base.

Kids Chat Room | Kids Room

The internet has made the entire world come together. The sheer mass of communication going on in the Internet makes it entirely impossible to police it. Therefore, along with the various advantages the internet and chat have, the most dangerous disadvantage is the danger of children getting exposed to unwanted elements on the online chat rooms for kids.

Maybe the most hit by unwanted elements in pre-teen chat rooms are children. Children are at a malleable age and may fall in the wrong hands if proper precautions are not taken about their safety. Here are some tips to ensure that your kid is having a safe, secure and entertaining time on the teenage chat rooms.

The first step towards creating a safe atmosphere on the chat communities for your child is by ensuring that they are not addicted to chatting. Chatting should be just one of the social interactions they carry out, and not the only one.

This way, children will not consider chatting to be anything else except a chance to make friends and know more about them.

Another important step towards your child’s online safety is to make them aware of the various dangers they may face over the internet. Do not keep anything hidden from your children.

Children at a particular age are always in revolt mode and would not like unnecessary snooping around on their personal life. It is always better to have a child cooperate with your security. The best way is to tell your child what you are exactly up to and what you both are put up against.

Also, ensure that as a parent, you take time out of your daily routine and go through the various bookmarks, and chat logs of your child. Being a parent is a huge responsibility, and caring about your child’s safety on the internet is just a part of this responsibility.

Though the internet is not all methodical, one can create their own method to create a safety grid for their children. For one, ensure that your kid chats only on sites pertaining to kids and their ages. That way, the chances of meeting anti-social characters is minimized. However, since the Internet is such a free service, this by no means is a fool proof method. A fifty four year old man can pose as a nineteen year old girl and nobody will be wiser until something serious happens.

Also, do not allow your kids to use hardcore chat sites like MIRC. Most of the chat rooms of MIRC are sexually oriented or otherwise not advisable to be used by children below the age of eighteen.

Possibly the best bet of keeping your child safe on the internet is by allowing them to only access moderated chat rooms. Moderated chatrooms are chatrooms which are ‘moderated’ by the employees of the chat service. The ‘moderator’ looks after the chats in the room and removes any chatter who acts in any manner not appropriate to the other chatters. This is called as ‘kicking’ or ‘banning’ in online chat parlance.

Encourage your child to keep a log of all the chats he or she does with their friends. Almost all modern chat softwares and chat rooms have a inbuilt save function which saves your child’s chats in a *.txt format on your computer. If the child is chatting on a website interface, you can always select the entire chat and save it as a *.txt format on your computer.

Try not to have your child use a personal computer till a certain age. If your child uses a common computer at home, you can keep an eye on which chat sites they access and also which websites they access. Therefore, you will always have a general idea of what your child is up to.

One unbreakable rule you should make for your child is to ‘not meet anyone he or she has met in the free live chat rooms’. Though this rule may not be logical for mature people, it is a very important rule for children. Meeting people from online in real life is always a tricky situation, and even mature people should keep in mind that you should always meet chat friends in public places, and generally always be on the wary for anything fishy.

Facebook Chat: New Plug-Ins Reviewed

Facebook has been building new partnerships with chat-only services to increase the appeal of it’s chat function. In the past Facebook Chat  has often been critiqued as unreliable, slow, and lacking in the same visibility options as profile pages. The upgrades it did make were often perceived as bizarre and unwanted. For example, many users were perplexed over the decision to merge chat and messaging into a single inbox.
However, Facebook is now using a couple of new partnerships to its advantage. Let’s take a look and see if improvement is on the horizon.

Facebook chat news

Skype Video Chat
In June 2011 Facebook teamed up with Skype to offer video chat within their chat platform. Using this video chat doesn’t require you to download Skype, or have a Skype ID. Facebook also gain kudos for the unique function of letting you leave a ‘video voicemail’ if the person you want to chat with is not online.
Pros: You don’t need to create a Skype login to use video chat
Cons: Actually, it’s a pretty good service!
Athena Chit Chat For Facebook
In January of 2012, a company called Athena launched an independent app called ‘Chit Chat for Facebook’. This free-standing app essentially gives you access to all of your contacts and allows you to chat without newsfeed distraction.

Facebook chat news

Pros: You can see status notification updates which let you know who’s recently been online
Cons: No group chat

 

 

 

 

 

New Chat Visibility Settings
You can now filter your Facebook Chat experience by choosing who sees you when you’re online. In a similar way to being able to choose who sees what content you post to your newsfeed (let’s hope chat visibility will be easier to use than profile visibility!)
The new feature integrates your friends list with chat. The interface features sliders which let you easily turn your visibility to each person off and on.  Most users would probably agree this is a huge step forward in refining the chat feature.
Pros: Chat more efficiently but choosing who can reach you
Cons: Don’t forget who you’ve placed on your ‘invisible’ list!
Just For Fun….Te  Gusta?

Fans of ‘RageFaces’ like ‘LOOOOOOOOOOL’, ‘Me Gusta’, and the most feared of them all, ‘Trollface’, can now use them in Facebook chat. Just search out for the special codes online and paste them into your chat. Easy!

Facebook chat news
Pros: Plenty of lulz
Cons:  It isn’t lulzy to everyone
Overall, teaming up with Skype is probably the best thing Facebook could do given the circumstances. For all their prowess in social networking – chat is obviously not the Facebook team’s forte. The new Skype service has had a lot of positive feedback and looks set to endear itself with Facebook fans longing for video chatting capability.

With Live Chat Software Your Real Estate Website Can Talk

 The needs of a real estate stand as a market place for a buyer and seller to communicate, negotiate and enhance the business. Real estate websites want to make sure that buyers looking for information or sellers trying to figure out how to get the information are satisfied. For ease of access live chat will be the solution to get in touch with the customers at minimal cost. Your main concern should be that it gives you an edge over your competitors.

Live chat software

Nowadays there is a boom in real estate, so many people are eager to get property of their own. But the confusion lies in whom to trust and where to buy, etc. There is a gap between buyer and seller. Now buyers can use the live chat function to ask general questions about the site or specific questions about the area in which it is posted.

For our sellers to be successful, we must make the buyer’s experience exceed expectations. In marketing terms customer delight is superior to customer satisfaction. With the help of a click the customers can be provided the required information and also customized answers to FAQs.

Live chat acts as an ideal communicator between the company website and the customer with a real time presence. In order to achieve friendliness and human touch, rather than just being a website, live chat will be an added advantage. For a good impression among the customers, a photo of the communicator can be shown in chat as it will be like he/she is talking to a person, which builds trust among the customers. If you have a large number of photo listings on each page, it may be a good idea to have an extra-large audience to visit the site and queries will be generated.

Live chat means handling multiple clients rather than sticking to each individual customer via telephone

We provide a friendly, dynamic and secure environment to offer immediate live support.  Your customers will be happy as they get personal attention and instant live help and this will increase the chance of the result being achieved. It can be utilized for organizations like retailers, travel agents, hotels, companies, small scale vendors, and of course real estate agents.

The highlights of using live chat will be that the service will be available round the clock 24/7 which is essential for a business to be active for a prolonged period of time. The most important aspect of this system is it gives a result oriented hint in the form of sales leads. It offers a means of making information available to customers, prospects and the public, hence the credibility of the website it increased. They also stand as a platform for giving discounts, promotions, gifts, and freebies in addition.

 Kalai Mani is currently working as Live Help Manager for Mioot Live Chat, leading live chat software service provider since 2003 for customer support systems.
