A Suggestion for Online Markets of Pakistan

Posted: 05 May 2011 11:40 AM PDT


A Suggestion for Online Markets of Pakistan is a post from: ProPakistani

Online markets, especially for gadgets, electronic equipments, mobiles have become very much popular in Pakistan. People now prefer visiting these places online to buy products of their choice, than to wander in market.

Choose the product, call the number given with the ad and you are ready to go. But what if the ad poster has (intentionally) given the wrong number?

Yes it has happened with my friend, and I am sure that others would have faced the issue as well. There are famous online portals where you can easily place ads for the product you want to sell.

There are some roguish ones who just use such services for the sake of fun or revenge, may be. There are numerous examples of fake ads with wrong numbers. People usually use it to get someone irritated by the huge amount of requests from the buyers for the specific product.

Imagine if you put an ad for iPhone 4 in Rs. 35,000 with some wrong number. People will really go after that madly, and hundreds of interested buyers may end up calling the number, causing serious problems for the reciever.

This post is just to give few simple suggestions to such online portals to overcome such issues which is going severe these days.

Suggestion 1:

Yes, verify the number before the ads go online, a simple and easy solution which is not difficult to put into practice. Whenever you post an ad, you are to verify the number which you are going to use with that. A small code can be sent to the number for the sake of verification.

Suggestion 2:

Another critical issue which needs to be discussed is, placing mobile numbers on website in text form. Search engine bots as well as scripts can easily gather numbers from such site which may be used for other purpose such as mobile advertisement.

Hafeezcentre.pk has recently coped up the issue by showing numbers in the image form which are not readable by search engine bots. Moreover you cannot simply copy paste such numbers manually, easily.

These measures, if taken, will surely add ease to the life of many and surely a stitch in time saves nine while delay is the deadliest form of denial.

RIM Stays Bold in the Smartphone War

Posted: 04 May 2011 10:00 PM PDT


RIM Stays Bold in the Smartphone War is a post from: ProPakistani

RIM has decided to play with its Bold series to compete in smartphone war, it officially announced the Bold 9900 and Bold 9930 at its world conference in Florida.

While touchscreen technology existed in smartphones before the iPhone, there is little argument that Apple was able to finally introduce a device that any person would not mind poking and swiping.

With it began the ongoing battle for supremacy of the multi-billion dollar cellular industry, which according to estimates accounts for around 500 million device sales each year.

Over the years, Research In Motion (RIM), the Canadian technology firm behind Blackberry, has marketed its devices on the backing of its secure data transfer capabilities. The corporate world has been the primary customer for Blackberry devices, allowing employers to turn their workforce into a 24-hour productive unit, in some way or form.

In the last few years, RIM has begun enticing the younger generation with refined devices to suit the style needs, while possessing all the necessary features like email connectivity and social networking. The biggest battle feature is its BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) service, allowing the Berry users to communicate with fellow Berry friends anywhere in the world, as long as Berry services are running.

On the sales front, RIM has been finding it hard to compete with the long line of smartphones. With Apple and Android platforms making quick in-roads in the once Symbian and Berry world, the company has seen its market share eroded. Even certain organizations, the core of BlackBerry consumers, have initiated a switch to the iPhone or other devices, as its workforce show greater affinity to newer technology and the touch option.

Earlier forays by the Berry maker to incorporate touch in its devices were met with lukewarm response. The 9500 Storm was more a press-screen, and the 9800 Torch remains a step behind in its touchscreen technology to competitors. Neither managed to penetrate well into the market; for one, BlackBerry is synonymous with the QWERTY key, allowing ease of typing, and neither of the above devices maintained that ease with its touch feature.

However, after the initial reports of a touch and type device that mirrored the Nokia-launched devices, RIM has officially announced two new models of the BOLD series at its world conference in Florida: the 9900 and 9930. A capacitive touchscreen coupled with a full QWERTY keyboard, the handsets will be the first to roll out with RIM's new OS 7. One of the key features of the new OS is a browser that provides improved browsing and a better user experience. Furthermore, the ability to manage personal and corporate content separately could be used a driving point for RIM to have more individuals accept the Berry as their sole cellular device.

Other important facets of the device include a 1.2 GHz processor, 8 GB of onboard memory, 720p HD video recording, dual-band Wi-Fi®, a built-in compass (magnetometer) and Near Field Communication (NFC) technology.

As the handset hits the markets in the summer, local users will be hoping that they can have full Berry services restored by the time this arrives in Pakistan. After all, having all that under the hood is of no use if there is no information highway to cruise with it.
