Or just stubborn?</a> " and is written for all of those entrepreneurs , bloggers,.....etc. Who think, that world has got a saturation or they can not do something new because they are going to face already a lot of competition ! <br />
When Mark <a href="http://www.facebook.com/zuck">Zuckerberg </a>started <a href="http://www.facebook.com/">facebook</a>, wasnt Myspace and other social giants already covering the market ? <a href="http://www.wired.com/techbiz/startups/news/2007/09/ff_facebook?currentPage=all"> Why start a new social website</a> ? <br />
<br />
What pursued Larry Page & Sergery Brin to pursue to google idea when there were <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/19991005055735/http://www3.zdnet.com/pcmag/special/web100/search1.html">already search engines like AltaVista</a>, Lycos, HotBot & other giants ? <br />
<br />
What pursued them to continue to their vision & dram, which looked almost impossible, because to build their first engine with relevant results, they had to build a web-crawler<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Page">,a crawler that had to access 10 million web pages in 1995 ! </a><br />
If you were there in 1995, what would you call such a guy, who is building this college project & later expanding the same idea to his company ? <br />
<br />
There are numerous examples of successful stories ! <br />
At the same time, there are numerous examples of failures as well ! <br />
The World is nearing to <a href="http://www.domaintools.com/internet-statistics/">1.5 billion domains registered</a> in total ! Not all of them are going to make there way to get mentioned in success story tags of a blog, NO ! <br />
Not until you have a unique vision ! <br />
Not until you have a passion to contribute to society ! <br />
Not until you have the knowledge , Knowledge of what is needed by people & how are you going to contribute to it! <br />
Not until you have the determination & vision to continue to your dream at any cost ! <br />

Lots of factor contributes to success of a e-commerce site or <a href="http://www.qalixa.com">e-marketplace</a>.<br />
Right now, I will like to end this post mentioning about the knowledge again! <br />
Knowledge like the cat depicted in picture, that a intelligent cat knows, no harm a tied dog can do to it !!! <br />
<br />
<br />
So follow your vision, stand up in the competition like a intelligent cat, not like the barking dog !Isabellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08394371301486869354noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1941010202387115780.post-65215736395885522102012-01-22T19:04:00.004+01:002012-01-23T16:08:49.672+01:00Compare to a older revision in tortoise svnWorking with Tortoise SVN is very easy till the point, you suddenly found, that a team has worked upon the same file and each member has contributed a lot to the code in the same file !!!<br /><br />We are presenting a solution, if you have been struggling in similar situation, :<br /><br />1) Well the first thing you need to do is to find out who worked on which revision, which is very easy , simply right click on file, & click on show log, or you can alternatively, right click on the folder itself & click on show log from the options available in context menu items of tortoise svn.<br />Find the revision number & author name data from here & make a list of it.<br /><br />2) Right Click on the affected file (or take one by one if there is a list) & click on repository browser available from the context menu items.<br />Switch first revision (select to proper revision number with the button on the top right corner and choose the location on the left panel, we suggest though to do it one by one, but you can change here whole folder to the selected revision) !<br />Now, right click on the folder you want to compare and select "Mark for comparison".<br />Repeat the steps for the second revision and select "Compare URLs".<br />Now you have a list of the changed files.<br />In order to export it, you have to highlight them all, right click and "Copy selection to clipboard". Paste in your favourite editor and you're done.<br /><br />Thus you can find the exact 'faulty code' or troubling element along with the detail to ask whom to ask to correct !<br /><br />If there is any confusion in any part of it, or you want more svn tips, ask for us in comments section !<br />We hope this post will be useful !<br /><br />More information here :<br />http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug-showlog.htmlTechnical Team, Qalixahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06771363886241621626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1941010202387115780.post-55463831832245893342012-01-12T08:43:00.000+01:002012-01-13T11:10:12.823+01:00Special Offer on Qalixa<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

The technology behind this technique can be implemented in your website or blog, and can be very effective if you have idea, around where next user is going to navigate. On Chrome, this will make the next page webpage load in no time. So, what change you need to do on your website / blog ?<br />
Here are the details :<br />
<br />
1) Websites :<br />
Open your website template and, before the closing </head> tag, include the following code:<br />
<pre><link rel="prerender" href="http://example.com/page2.html"></pre>The URL (example.com) should point to the next “logical” page. For instance, if you have a photo gallery or a long article that spans multiple pages, the URLs could point to different parts of the page. The prerender tag on Page 1 could point to Page 2 while the prerender tag on Page 2 could point to Page 3 and so on.<br />
A small business website may link to their “about” page or the “products” pages from the “home” page using the Instant Pages tag as that’s where potential customers are likely to go once they land on the home page.<br />
2) Wordpress blogs :<br />
Open your header.php file, copy-paste the following code inside the closing <head> tag and you’re done.<br />
<pre><?php if (is_archive()) { ?><!-- Instant Pages for Google Chrome --></pre><pre><link rel="prerender" href="<?php echo get_next_posts_page_link(); ?>"></pre><pre><?php } ?> </pre><br />
<br />
3) Blogger blogs :<br />
Still searching for a way to enable it. If any of our reader has the code to change in template or header, please share with us.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Here is the video describing about Google's Instant Page technology :<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><object class="BLOGGER-youtube-video" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" data-thumbnail-src="http://2.gvt0.com/vi/_Jn93FDx9oI/0.jpg" height="349" width="560"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_Jn93FDx9oI&fs=1&source=uds" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /><embed width="320" height="266" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_Jn93FDx9oI&fs=1&source=uds" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object></div><br />
This is the chart for this year's browser trend from <a href="http://www.gs.statcounter.com/">Stat Counter</a>.<br />
If you compare the graph, you will come to know that chrome is increasing popularity, and we are hoping that after this instant page loading feature, chrome will gain more popularity.<br />

We came to know about Poll Daddy from about.com, from <a href="http://weblogs.about.com/od/bloggingtools/fr/PollDaddyReview.htm">here</a>.<br />
<br />
We are finding it quite interesting, and we hope, our viewers will be polling in their votes :)<br />
<br />
If you want to know how to create a Poll, you can check at this <a href="http://support.polldaddy.com/creating-a-poll/">link</a>.<br />

We are looking for more suggestions and are thinking, what should be the update frequency of the polls, any suggestions ?<br />

We do hope, we will be able to find out some interesting polls for our viewer(s)<br />

A project’s building block is a programmer.Generally, they are always under heavy stress, because of project deadlines, commitment, technical complexities, mis-understandings, communication gaps , pressure from management etc… <br />
For a stress-free coding, Qalixa team is using a simple approach of “RIDBIO” concept ! <br />
RIDBIO is : <br />
“ Get the Requirement & Use your Imagination ;Discuss the imagination & Build in Order “<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">1) Understand the <strong>Requirement</strong> & Use your <strong>Imagination</strong></span> <br />
Before starting your work, use your imagination to understand what the task/ requirement is. Try to imagine how much elements will be used, how much classes may need to code, on UI part, how much changes or new elements are required.<br />
<a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-jOVMYR4v3u8/TjfNw_tUf6I/AAAAAAAAABA/fwk8RXZBh-k/s1600-h/thinking-monkey1%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img alt="thinking-monkey1" border="0" height="148" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-jY64t2wVzrc/TjfNyJ5v-QI/AAAAAAAAABE/XvERaCOPVRk/thinking-monkey1_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="thinking-monkey1" width="135" /></a> <a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-TLmtATQsOGo/TjfNzIE56JI/AAAAAAAAABI/pcRVtEzR5sQ/s1600-h/thinking3%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img alt="thinking3" border="0" height="154" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-ACcmkEXo8eY/TjfN0BM9w0I/AAAAAAAAABM/KO4U6clpGq8/thinking3_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="thinking3" width="139" /></a><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2) <strong>Discuss</strong> the Imagination & <strong>Build in Order </strong></span><br />
Coding is like building a house, how are you going to build your house ?<br />
As shown below in graphic, or you are going to build it in order ? <br />
<a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-eurrkGX7tP8/TjfN2FdLQFI/AAAAAAAAABQ/4LhvOVLrM1k/s1600-h/roof%25255B14%25255D.gif"><img alt="roof" border="0" height="238" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-rSqnVIvAEPM/TjfN3AbKFnI/AAAAAAAAABY/8uMliH8InJU/roof_thumb%25255B15%25255D.gif?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="roof" width="590" /></a><br />
Many times it happen that a programmer gets away with complexities of the project, and is unable to deliver what he is capable of. One should always stay focussed about task, and should try to complete it in smaller parts.<br />
”<em>Do the simple bits first, you may never need the complex bits</em> ! ” <br />
Always code the simple cases first. Not only is it more likely that the requirements and specification process has got the simple cases right (more people at more meetings can understand them), but it's less hassle if you have to throw them and start again.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">3) Test , test, test & TEST </span><br />
Think of it like building a house.Before you build the walls, you want to make pretty sure the foundations are stable. If you find a fault with the footings after the walls are raised it's going to cost a lot to get it fixed. If the roof's gone on and the furniture is in place, that same fault might cost more than the house to put right. One should make sure that every function, every method, every object, every subroutine has an associated automatic test harness which tests normal, limit and error cases for every parameter, and makes sure it does the right thing.<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">4) Working in ‘ bits ‘</span><br />
If you work regular office hours, try to divide your work into chunks you can complete in a day. Try to build and test some sort of subsystem by the end of a week, and so on. It seems obvious, but it's amazing how many people don't even try to do this.<br />
First it lets you free your mind from clutching onto part-finished work. I've never been able to fully relax if I have remember where I've got up to for tomorrow; well, not and do any useful work the next day, anyway. The second benefit is the happy "kick" we all get from "closure". I get a physical sense of release when I've finished and tidied a piece of work; a feeling of "now I could do anything!".<br />
<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Summarizing up the things : </span><br />
<br />
<strong>Coding : </strong> At the end of the day, if the program doesn't run and make money for the client, you haven't done anything.<br />
<br />
<strong>Testing :</strong> You have to know when you're done. The tests tell you this. If you're smart, you'll write them first so you'll know the instant you're done. Otherwise, you're stuck thinking you maybe might be done, but knowing you're probably not, but you're not sure how close you are.<br />
<br />
<strong>Listening :</strong> You have to learn what the problem is in the first place, then you have to learn what numbers to put in the tests. You probably won't know this yourself, so you have to get good at listening to clients - users, managers, and business people.<br />
<br />
<strong>Designing :</strong> You have to take what your program tells you about how it wants to be structured and feed it back into the program. Otherwise, you'll sink under the weight of your own guesses.</div>Technical Team, Qalixahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06771363886241621626noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1941010202387115780.post-10608161758703468912011-07-23T14:49:00.000+02:002011-07-23T15:04:25.469+02:00Success story of "Angry Birds"<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />

Journey of Angry birds began as :<br />
" It all began when a Senior Game Designer at Rovio named Jaakko Iisalo showed the team sketches of the birds. Taking inspiration from the swine flu epidemic that was a grave concern at that time, they decided to make the pigs the bad guys. Though they had a clear idea on the concept, it was a hard thing to pitch, as a game that consists of swinging birds that could not fly at pigs, was definitely something hard to sell." as quoted <a href="http://www.hardwarezone.com.my/blogs/view/185075">here</a>.<br />
<br />
It took one year to develop angry birds, after which, Rovio team decided to spend all on marketing channels, over iPhones. It was a big risk for them, but it eventually worked out, as quoted <a href="http://www.hardwarezone.com.my/blogs/view/185075">here</a>.<br />
<br />
Peter Vesterbacka talks of the high-flying success of Rovio's mobile game Angry Birds :<br />

<br />
Angry Birds is now downloaded more than 1 million times a day.<br />
As of June 2011, Angry Birds has been downloaded more than 250 million times (across all platforms and game versions).<br />
And there are lots of more to share, while reading over net, we found out some of findings : <br />
"We then started defining a plan of how we're going to do that. We had a plan that we were going to do ten smaller games, and maybe one of those would be very successful." That first game, by the way, was Angry Birds, which was dusted down and given a new sense of purpose. “ As quoted by Rovio, <a href="http://wireless.ign.com/articles/111/1118589p1.html">here.</a><br />
<br />
People at Rovio were facing ups & downs and were through their troubled times, when angry birds was invented, they just had their idea and a vision, nothing else… This made us believe that one does not need a strong base or lots of money to get big hit. One just need creativity, original idea, and a commitment.. Success is then sure to follow.<br />

Today, I was giving support to one of my client, who was adding toys in children segment in Qalixa, he told me that today is international childrens day. <br />
I thought, no it cant be, because at sweden we celebrate it on first monday of October, (some people @ may 13). <br />
After going through google & wikipedia, I realized that different countries celebrate International children day at different dates. ! See this <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children%27s_Day">link</a>. <br />
Then I thought, some people must be looking for suggestions to purchase gifts for there child. <br />
<b>Are you also searching gifts for your cute angels & little heroes ? </b><br />
<a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-99hZmybw9N8/TeVwilr_J8I/AAAAAAAAAA8/FfS20r1cogI/s1600-h/childGifts%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img alt="childGifts" border="0" height="137" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/--asqVxe8aBE/TeVwlN6_vRI/AAAAAAAAABA/VerkFDiTosk/childGifts_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="childGifts" width="242" /></a><br />
Well, Qalixa can suggest some categories to go through. <br />

URL shortening is very effective, when you have a complex URL but to easily share, you want to shorten it, thus allowing you to post on tweeter feeds, easy for people to remember, and many sites also provide the feature to record the stats, so that you can keep a eye, how many hits you got. </p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_KU5cCtPWXmA/TcTzWYeHfHI/AAAAAAAAAA0/BWA7a3ocjNA/s1600-h/image%5B2%5D.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="image" border="0" alt="image" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_KU5cCtPWXmA/TcTzY6o7r2I/AAAAAAAAAA4/mWiv1z__LnA/image_thumb.png?imgmax=800" width="244" height="86"></a></p> <p>We feel very tempted specially about the clicks monitoring part, and so, decided to test these features, with the URL shortener sites, available in market, of course, this list contains some of those, who are free, as you all must be knowing, Qalixa strongly believes in “free things” ! </p> <p>There is already a post published in our tech blog, about Qalixa’s link shortened by various URL’s. In this post, we simply review those in a brief manner. </p> <p>Top 3 services according to us are goo.gl, bit.ly & su.pr in no respective order, su.pr is very famous Stumble Upon community, goo.gl is service by google, and bit.ly is very popular with tweeter. </p> <p>Our fun ends for now with the URL Shorteners, how did it went for you ? </p> Isabellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08394371301486869354noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1941010202387115780.post-18715115455153612652011-05-07T09:20:00.000+02:002011-08-05T17:19:10.060+02:00Qalixa Shortened URL<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Qalixa 's shortened URL using different URL shorteners. </span></span></span><br />

<br />
We are trying to make this blog as diverse as possible, because this is what we are.<br />
<br />
We haven't limited ourselves to a single domain or single technology, instead, Qalixa is, which goes for all the technologies, and implements the hybrid solutions, taking best of all.<br />
<br />
May be that is why, <b>we claim to be unique of our type</b>, presenting for you, <b><u>Business for All (B4A)</u></b> concept !<br />
<br />
<b>We encourage viewers to comment</b>, whatever they feel and we will always like your opinion, whether you like a post or not.<br />
<br />
We, as a part of blogger are amateur bloggers, blogging about what we feel, this is not the Official Blog, this is a blog, rather, started by tech & announcement teams, just to express ourselves more. Hoping to get something worth to viewers,<br />
<br />
-- Isabella, from Qalixa Announcement Team.<br />
