Today May 19th is the birthday of Malcolm X. Let remember our Black Prince today by reading some of his words of wisdom.

A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything.
Malcolm X

If you have no critics you’ll likely have no success.
Malcolm X

Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.
Malcolm X

There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time.
Malcolm X

Don’t be in a hurry to condemn because he doesn’t do what you do or think as you think or as fast. There was a time when you didn’t know what you know today.
Malcolm X

You can’t separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom.
Malcolm X

Happy Birthday Malcolm X, we will always remember you for the contribution you have made to this world. You always spoke the truth and what you felt in your heart even if the whole world was against it.

We will always miss our ‘Shining Black Prince’.

Facebook has accepted the fact that it has been raising anti-Google campaign.

As reported via BBC, Facebook has confirmed that it used Burson-Marsteller to expose things which Google was doing that “raised privacy concerns”, but denied that it had authorised a smear campaign.

“Instead, we wanted third parties to verify that people did not approve of the collection and use of information from their accounts on Facebook and other services for inclusion in Google Social Circles — just as Facebook did not approve of use or collection for this purpose,” the company said.

Who is Burson- Marsteller? What is it all about?

Burson- Marsteller is a PR Firm. The PR Firm approached bloggers to write anti google stories in their blog in exchange for some ransom amount.

The dealing continued until one blogger disagreed with the firm.

The blogger who was planting anti-Google stories could not continue writing such stories, and this was the moment he decided to post the emails which he received from the PR firm to expose the Firm.

Earlier rumors spread out that it must have been Microsoft or Apple that would have hired the firm.

But when US-based news website, the Daily Beast uncovered the truth. It just shocked every one, including me.

Never saw this coming from Facebook.

What do you think on the whole story? Are you disappointed that Facebook has gone with such low act? Share with us your views via comments

The QR code: A thing of beauty or an eyesore? The magical barcodes that can be scanned by a smartphone to launch an offline-to-online experience are often criticized for their black and white checkerbox appearance. Those who doubt that QR codes will go mainstream are quick to point out that the look of QR codes will deter marketers and advertisers from using them.

Fortunately, QR codes are malleable and can be redesigned in truly extraordinary ways, while still maintaining their scanability. The truth is, QR codes no longer have to be checkerbox in appearance. We’ve entered a new phase of “designer codes” that can be integrated into marketing campaigns in an attractive way that isn’t an eyesore.

QR codes have so much potential from a design perspective, so let’s take a look at a few tricks and techniques you should keep in mind when designing a code to enhance your brand and appeal to your audience.

First off, this is a rumor and still not confirmed. You all know about how Justin Bieber attracts a lot of psychotic fans. It looks like one of them just punched Selena Gomez for dating Justin Bieber.

Selena Gomez has been receiving a lot of threats over the past few months for dating Justin Bieber and spending a lot of time with him. As a matter of fact many of them were death threats. Looks like now things are getting a little bit out of control.

Well these rumors started after some paparazzi photos were published photos of Selena Gomez apparently covering what appears to be a fat lip.

However Selena Gomez’s rep has told that there is “absolutely no truth” in these rumors.

The photos of Gomez, a Disney star, were snapped outside of Maggiano’s restaurant in L.A., where the starlet accompanied her beau for his 17th birthday dinner, People reports.

For centuries, Men has moulded his decisions, his careers, his happiness all in the name of zodiac signs and its warnings.

Although, majority of educated people are still following zodiac signs, i still believe modern world is waking up from this superstitious belief .

Let me reason out why not to believe zodiac signs. Here we go!

The people who wrote the zodiac signs, dont know the real signs

Though the real date from which  the zodiac signs acceptance by the people is unknown, it is often dated back to 6th century BC.   Few well known people considered these signs as correct and wrote it. What they meant to be correct is now wrong which means for years and years people have been wrongly predicting the unknown.

That reminds me of what God said, Only I know the unknown. Man cannot know the unseen.

And that is the truth.

Zodiac Signs has spoiled many good decisions

Yep, people have wasted their beautiful career and their decisions based on what signs say. Some people even go out to seek their career when they find it is correct according to the signs. And now we know that signs were wrong. which means trusting some maniacs people have actually failed to cope up with their career decisions.

Zodiac signs has spoiled good marriages

I am glad to say the place where i live faces no problems in stars and marriages. But for those who are unaware of, few countries on this planet, considers stars and signs for marriage. If they find out the bride and groom stars doesnt match they call off the marriages without even bothering the real sentiments of the bride or groom.

So now since the signs have been proved wrong. How would our ancestors reply us on this discrimination.

Zodiac signs are the result of  disbelief in God

For people who are pious and god fearing, you can continue reading below. Those who does not believe God can skip it.

God said very clearly, believing in the stars and the zodiac signs is nothing but the act of linking God with other Gods.

On a matter of fact it is term as disbelief. If you think you follow God’s word and yet you follow the zodiac signs, then you should know that what you have done is an act of  polytheist.

People who say they can predict the future are doing nothing but speaking lies. The predictors will often ask you what date you are born and what is your stars.

Now, it has been proved that the stars which you follow is wrong and what was practiced for centuries also becomes false, how will you now explain years and years of  wrong words said by the future predictors?

Dont you think you have wasted your life by following some persons words rather than following God words?

If people stop believing zodiac signs and stars  atleast now, then i believe they can understand God.

Wake up at-least now!

Well, it seems apparently Google’s street view was involved in a murder. Google’s Street View of Middle Road in Worcester, England has a dead girl in it and Google as usual didn’t bother about it or report to the police at least.

This is the actual image from Google’s street view :

Can you see the dead girl?

The locals who saw this on street view were horrified and thought that it could be a crime that went undetected. But after the constant nagging from the locals and the media attention. The truth was finally revealed, its actually a prank played by a 10-year-old girl, Azura Beebeejaun on her friend.

In an interview she said that she was just ‘playing dead’ with her friend. All she heard was a car zoom by. This image was taken last summer by Google.

Click here to check it out directly in Google, hope they have not removed it yet.

Azura tells that she’s “quite chuffed” to be on the Internet and can’t wait to tell her friends when school starts. Her mom’s take on all this? “I just wish she was that quiet all the time.”

Now that the mystery is solved, people are worried why

1. that Google’s driver stop didn’t to check out whats wrong?

2. how could Google not notice this ?

Its not the first time that awkward images appear on Street view, but this is worrying. We have lots of questions hope Google will not be arrogant.
