Knowsley Safari Park

Me and my friends went to this park yesterday. Our actual plan was to visit Liverpool but we ended up here spending whole day and it's absolutely worth the time. It's a lovely safari park & we had a great (little adventurous) time.

Developing an Iphone App

Finally I have decided to build an iphone app, at least to try :)

Actually I have been thinking of developing an iphone app for the last 6 months to 1 year but never had a chance to buy a Mac. Since the availability of different cross platforms that enable to develope iphone app on windows, I am convinced to develope in C/C++ using the cross platform software.

Due to daily work load, the actual process may take a bit longer than what it should be. Moreover I have not yet decided what app to develope, but I am sure the first app would be a free to download one.

The list of task ahead are;

  • Deciding what cross platform to choose
  • What App to develope
  • Coding & Designing Required Graphics
  • Trying out in my iphones
  • Registering an account at Iphone App store
  • Submit
 

Google Instant an End to SEO?

Google Instant – an end to SEO? is the question among many SEOs, internet marketers and many others. The simple answer to this is “No”.

As long as the search engines strive to accurate, relevant information to the users’ search queries the SEO will exist. Google instant might change the way SEO is today, but SEO still exist. As long as there is e-commerce and as long as the top search engines work on providing relevant information SEO will exist.

Features like Google instant and other new things would only make things harder for the spammers and the SEO’s who rely on bad SEO techniques.

If you are one among those who are worried about this career, then stop worrying and start working on your projects :)

 

Iphone Icon for your website

How to create iphone icon for your website?

Well, it’s simple and almost free of cost if you could design an 57×57 px size icon yourself. Without wasting anymore time lets jump to see the process;

Create a 57×57 pixel PNG format image for your website.  Name the file apple-touch-icon.png

Drop this apple-touch-icon.png file in the root directory of your website, see if you can view the uploaded image by visiting http://www.yourdomain.com/apple-touch-icon.png (replace yourdomain with your site name)

Note:

if you cannot upload the image to the root directory, you can upload to a sub-folder and put a rel tag in the homepage of your site. for example: upload the png file to images folder and put this tag <link rel=”apple-touch-icon” href=”/images/apple-touch-icon.png”/> (make sure you put this tag in between <head> </head> tag of your homepage source code)
