The DART Language from Google
Dart is an open source Web programming language
developed by Google.
The goal of Dart is ultimately to replace JavaScript in web development on the
open web platform while offering better
performance and better security features. Dart is a class-based, single
inheritance, object-oriented language with C-style syntax supports interfaces, abstract
classes, reified generics, and optional typing.
Dart programs run in one of two modes.
- Checked mode
- Production mode
In "checked mode", which is not the default mode
and must be turned on, dynamic type assertions are enabled. Running in
"checked mode" is recommended for development and testing. Dart programs run by
default in "production mode", which runs with all dynamic type
assertions turned off. This is the default mode because it currently is the
fastest way to run a Dart program.Dart compiles to modern JavaScript, allowing Dart apps to
run on the modern web.
The famous Hello World example in Dart Language is as
follows:

Search: Google slips as Microsoft, Yahoo gain
SAN FRANCISCO: Google Inc's
share of online searches in the US slipped during August from July, while
rivals Yahoo Inc and Microsoft Corp
gained, according to research firm ComScore Inc. Google had 64.8 per cent of US searches last month, down from 65.1 per cent in July, according to ComScore. It was the second-straight month of decline, following no change in June. Yahoo climbed to 16.3 per cent, up from 16.1 per cent, rising for a second month in a row. Microsoft, meanwhile, increased to 14.7 per cent from 14.4 per cent.
Yahoo and Microsoft teamed up last year in thesearch market, providing a bigger threat to Google's dominance. Under the companies' 10-year agreement, Microsoft handles Internet queries for Yahoo pages. Microsoft, which released a revamped search engine named Bing in 2009, also has rolled out a multimedia advertising campaign to attract users and is bolstering results by displaying data from Facebook Inc.
Google, based in Mountain View, California, continues to enhance its own features. In June, the company unveiled a feature called Instant Pages that gives users of its Chrome browser quicker connections from links on query results. The change is designed to cut 2 to 5 seconds from the process. Google got most of its $29.3 billion in revenue last year from search advertising.
Google buys Zagat..! wHAt nEXT....???
The search engine Google is committed to the location. Just closed the purchase of Zagat guides with recommendations on hotels, shops, restaurants, movies and most recognized U.S. services. The sale price has not been made public.
Zagat born in 1979. The guidelines were created by marriage and Google. They have more than 10 million customer ratings and professionals around the world. Google has announced the purchase through your blog .

The director of the company will be Bernardo Hernandez , Spanish businessman who also maintain his position as Director of Emerging Products Marketing at Google. Hernandez was one of the creators of idealista.com and head of Android, Google’s mobile. Previously served on the founding team of the Spanish web 11870 and is the head of Hotpot , social recommendation service from Google. The purchase of the company, which is also printed guides, due to the desire to free Google searches based on geolocation.
The company tried in 2009 to acquire the retail and entertainment guide Yelp , but negotiation was unsuccessful, she says the blog Techcrunch . Since then, relations between the two companies have not been very buoyant, especially when taken literally borrowed the Google database Yelp recommendations to provide more packing their Places. Marisa Meyer, vice president of the company’s official blog says that Zagat is now the “cornerstone” of the local services of Google, the next big target of the giant California after the search and advertising. “With Zagat won a top team with extensive experience in this sector, more than anyone in the industry,” says Meyer.
In 2008, Zagat was valued at $ 200 million, has offices, as well as in New York, United Kingdom, Japan and Canada. Then the marriage founder, Tim and Mina tried to sell the company, but the global economic crisis fustró the initiative, the newspaper has The Wall Street Journal .
The Zagat phone application is currently one of the most popular. In addition, marketing is a location-based emerging industries on the Internet, where Google and Zagat faces Foursquare, a service that combines fashion with air promotions fun and Facebook Places , the competitor created by the social network.
Google's Schmidt calls Apple's Jobs 'best' company boss in 100 years
London, Sept 3 (ANI): Google chairman Eric Schmidt has called Apple's Steve Jobs as 'the best' company boss in 50 or 100 years.
Schmidt, who sat on Apple's board between 2006 and 2009, handed down the praise at a technology conference, and said that Apple's former CEO deserved the praise because he built the company into a powerful corporation not once, but twice.
The assessment puts Jobs ahead of other American industry giants such as oil magnate John D Rockefeller and car maker Henry Ford, the BBC reports.
Jobs' first term as head of Apple lasted from the late 1970s when the company was founded until 1985. He resigned after losing a boardroom battle over the future of the company.
In 1997, Steve Jobs returned as CEO and launched the iMac range of personal computers.
Since then he has introduced the iPod, iPad and iPhone, all of which had made huge amounts of money for Apple. (ANI)
How to use Gmail Cc and Bcc ..??
There are primarily three ways to send an email to several recipients in one go - using theTo, Cc and Bcc fields. By default you see only the first, but the other two can be made visible by clicking on their links - refer image below.
In any of these fields - whether it's To:, Cc: or Bcc - you can enter more than one email address and separate by commas.
As you can understand, sending an email to multiple recipients simultaneously is a real time-saver. In fact, copying-pasting the message to individual recipients when the email needs to be sent to many is not recommended unless, of course, you want to personalize each email with the name of the recipient.
So how do Cc and Bcc work?
Both Cc and Bcc forward a copy of the message to everyone you've listed. The main difference between Cc or Carbon copy and Bcc (Blind carbon copy) is that, with the latter, the recipients do not get to know each other. For instance, putting all your friends' emails in the Bcc field and asking them to meet you at a chosen rendezvous would make everyone feel special until they arrive at the venue!
Use the Gmail Cc field when you don't care if recipients get to know each other. Bcc is reserved for those "special and secretive" email messages, if you know what I mean. Here is a little advice for Bcc field usage - enter an alternate email address of yours in the To: field (because you cannot leave it empty) and put everyone else in Bcc: -. This way everyone else will see only your (other) email address.
Sending to multiple recipients - helpful suggestion
Sending emails frequently to the same list of people can be tiring because you need to enter each email address. Gmail has a better solution which I use a lot and check the scenario below to understand how it works.
Planning to regularly update your friends with the happenings in your life? I suggest you create a "Group" of all your friends using the Gmail Contacts section. You would then be able to email everyone without going through the trouble of typing each person's email address each time. Simply select everyone in the group and send your message.

Chrome Store points to web evolution
Where would we be without a web browser? Much of the World Wide Web would have been inaccessible, social networking would have been nothing more than a buzzword, and search engines would probably have been individual software applications.
Despite being so integral to the Internet experience, the basic architecture of the web browser has not changed much since the advent of Mosaic, which was the first widely used web browser. But things are set to change.
The Chrome Web Store, launched a few months ago, offers some pointers. It features more than 3,760 apps and has already recorded more than 16 million app installs. The phenomenally successful app environment is now slowly making its way to the personal computer.
The implications are significant, and could define the way the Internet evolves. Google has realised that web users are looking for a richer experience, and its strategy is to monetise web development by adopting the marketplace mechanism which has worked so well for mobile phones.
While there are around 100 million mobile Internet users, there are over two billion people who use a web browser. If the web is treated as a platform, the user size of Android or iOS would look tiny in comparison. Google is betting on the vast advertising potential, deeply integrated in-browser experience that will allow syncing of applications with mobile devices and a faster adoption of cloud-based platforms such as the Chrome OS.
A Google spokesperson said that as the web becomes ever more powerful, users will increasingly adopt web-based applications — and the better the web experience, the more people will use the web.
Mozilla has responded by launching its own open web ecosystem [https://apps.mozillalabs.com/appdir/]. A major difference is that unlike the Chrome Web Store, Mozilla's apps can be used in any web browser with the help of a plug-in.
The subtext to this whole new vision of software and application development is the remarkable democratisation of the space. Until recently, digital distribution was platform-centric, and the developer got only 30-50 per cent of the money from each transaction.
Apple unleashed the app revolution by reversing the revenue share, keeping 30 per cent and giving the developer 70 per cent. The $1.99 games and productivity apps started showing up, thanks to developers getting a bigger cut. Facebook Credits follows a similar approach.
The Chrome Web Store has taken this to the next level, giving developers 95 per cent of the revenue. By offering a higher revenue share, Google hopes to get iPhone, iPad and game developers to move over to Chrome Web Store (and Android phones as well). The plan is to make money through advertising and Ad Sense. Thus, the intense competition in the mobile phone space is changing the web. And it is ‘win-win' for both developers and users.
GOOGLE's new Language: GO
Big news for developers out there: Google has just announced the release of a new, open sourced programming language called Go. The company says that Go is experimental, and that it combines the performance and security benefits associated with using a compiled language like C++ with the speed of a dynamic language like Python. Go’s official mascot is Gordon the gopher, seen here.
The Go programming language is an open source
project to make programmers more productive. Go is expressive, concise, clean,
and efficient. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs that
get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its novel type
system enables flexible and modular program construction. Go compiles quickly
to machine code yet has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of
run-time reflection. It's a fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels
like a dynamically typed, interpreted language.
Main Goals of 'GO':
Go aims to provide the efficiency of a statically-typed compiled language with the ease of programming of a dynamic language.Other goals include:
Go aims to provide the efficiency of a statically-typed compiled language with the ease of programming of a dynamic language.Other goals include:
- Safety: type-safe and memory-safe.
- Good support for concurrency and communication.
- Efficient, latency-free garbage collection.
- High-speed compilation
The syntax of Go is broadly similar to that of C: blocks of code are surrounded with curly braces; common control flow structures include
for, switch, and if. Unlike C, line-ending semicolons are optional; variable declarations are written differently and are usually optional; type conversions must be made explicit; and new go and select control keywords have been introduced to deal with concurrent programming. New built-in types include maps, Unicode strings, array slices, and channels for inter-thread communication.
Go is designed for exceptionally fast compiling times, even on modest hardware. The language requires garbage collection. Certain concurrency-related structural conventions of Go (channels and alternative channel inputs) are borrowed from Tony Hoare's CSP. Unlike previous concurrent programming languages such as occam or Limbo, Go does not provide any built-in notion of safe or verifiable concurrency.
Of features found in C++ or Java, Go does not include type inheritance, generic programming, assertions, method overloading, or pointer arithmetic.Of these, the Go authors express an openness to generic programming, explicitly argue against assertions and pointer arithmetic, while defending the choice to omit type inheritance as giving a more useful language.Initially, the language did not include exception handling, but in March 2010 a mechanism known as
panic/recover was implemented to handle exceptional errors while avoiding some of the problems the Go authors find with exceptions.
Visibility of structures, structure fields, variables, constants, methods, top-level types and functions outside of their defining package is defined implicitly according to the capitalization of their identifier.
Let's see a basic "HELLO WORLD " example in GO Language:
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello,World")
}

Blogger Finally Gets An Overhaul With New Dashboard & Features..!!
As you may have heard, things are starting to look a little different across many Google products—and today, Blogger is the next product to get a makeover.
It’s been a few years since we made major updates to Blogger’s look and feel, and there’s a lot more to these changes than just shiny new graphics. We’ve rewritten the entire editing and management experience from scratch so it’s faster and more efficient for you—and easier for us to update and improve over time.
Throughout the design process, we conducted user interviews to help identify how to make Blogger even easier and more enjoyable to use. We also watched users try our new interface and made many refinements based on their feedback.
A streamlined blogging experience
Whether you’re on a dashboard or settings page of blogger.com, you can always create or edit posts with just one click at the top of the screen. Additionally, the post editor has been expanded and simplified to give you a larger canvas for drafting and previewing your work.

How to get the new Gmail preview pane
If you enjoy the three-pane look of a desktop e-mail client, but use Gmail, today is your day. Google just announced a new Labs feature, Preview Pane, allowing you to view and reply to e-mails while navigating your inbox. The feature is also available to Google Apps users.
As Google mentions, the new look will be familiar to iPad owners, who currently enjoy this three-pane view on their devices.
To get the new look, go to Gmail > Mail Settings (upper right) > Labs. Scroll down to "Preview Pane," enable it, and save your changes.
Once enabled, a new button will appear in the upper right of your inbox. To toggle between the old-fashioned Gmail inbox and the preview pane, click the button on the left.
You also have the option to arrange the preview pane vertically or horizontally, using the drop-down menu on the right.
Google also added a 3-second delay before marking conversations as read; however, you can change that to immediately, 1 second, or never by visiting the general settings.
