BSNL Again Launches Rs 4200 Advance Rental 3G Plan but Virtually Unlimited

Before some months ago BSNL had stopped unlimited 3G plans and also discontinued its 6 months advance rental plan with which subscriber could avail unlimited 3G for only Rs 700/month. Currently there is no direct or real unlimited 3G plan available and only heavy usage 3G plans available at the cost of unlimited 3G.
This time BSNL have started from Karnataka and here BSNL had launched its 6 months advance rental plan i.e Rs 700/month plan again. But this time it is not purely unlimited and only virtually unlimited i.e you will get 36GB free data for 6 month or 6GB data/month. Thus Karnataka BSNL 3G subscribers will be able to use cheap 3G only for Rs 700/month because 6GB data is pretty sufficient and other telecom companies are offering 6GB data at more than Rs1000/month.
Simply Karnataka users will have to pay Rs 4200 and they will get 36GB data for 6 month or 180 days. They will be able to use this data even in roaming.

Intel Made 10 Core Processor

It seems really odd if we talk about 10 cores in a processor but Intel has finished its first 10 core processor which is purely unbeatable. Though this new processor might be useless for users because currently all programs are working on existing CPUs and no program is unique for this new super processor.



Currently the strongest processor in retail market is with 6 core and it is almighty to run any type of program without any problem and it is extremely costly so we can say that Intel will have to keep this 10 core processor in upcoming list till a long time and will have to wait till the launch of a super program.
It shouldn't take long for servers to start using the newcomers, although machines based on them will definitely come at a solid cost. After all, the cheapest of the lot sells for $2,558, while the most expensive is rated at $4,616.

Faststone VS PicPick- which one is the best Screen Capture Tool

FastStone capture is one of the best and easy to use screen capture and video tutorial maker application tool and widely used to make instant image demo or tutorials by many bloggers. Formerly this tool was free but now it is a paid application and we can use its trial version for free. Fast Stone is now not only a screen capturer but also it is a screen recorder application now so it has become a paid app.




Picpick is available in two editions i.e in home and paid editions. Its free edition is really awesome and we can do much more with. It works just like Fast stone but it is somewhat better than it. The image editor is far more advanced than FF capture and contains advanced line art options such as curve tool,bubble text caption box,better color options,color picker. This program has lot of hotkeys to use such as capture fixed screen capture,rectangle region capture,load last screen capture and more and the proper meaning of all these saying is “ PicPick is more advanced application than Fast Stone screen capture and it is free for personal use. With pixel ruler you can measure the length and height of any object on your desktop and I think it is a rare type of feature found. Another awesome feature of PicPick is its desktop color picker with which you can pick desired color on your desktop screen and apply its HTML code to your web layout. Personally I love this feature as a web designer.
