Advertise your Twitter profile with Million Pixel Twitter Page

whibb — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 11:06:00 +0000

You must be aware of million dollar homepage website which was conceptualized in 2005 by Alex Tew who didn’t have enough money to pay for his university education. The page was 1000 x 1000 pixels arranged in a grid and anyone could buy pixels for 1$/pixel.

You can check the website as it is still there as an Internet phenomenon. The guy sold all 1 million pixel and earned 1 million dollar in less than 4 months.

Now after around 4 years David has come up with similar million pixel twitter page website of putting up your Twitter profile instead of your website link. Don’t know if it is the effect of recession or what, you can buy a pixel on the site for $0.1. So net amount worth of the website is 100,000 $ which is still not bad if he’s able to sell the full pixel space.

We won’t say that this is something as innovative as the million dollar homepage by Alex Tew but you never know when the whole thing goes viral.If your business is centered around marketing stuff using Twitter then it is really worth spending the bucks as early as possible to get your desired place on the page.

Just after visiting twice, we could see double twitter profiles. I think you should go for it!

Wolfram Alpha is the next generation computational knowledge engine. The more I try it the more I feel that it is the smartest search engine ever present on the internet.

Apart from giving you regular answers to your queries Wolfram alpha can also solve complex mathematical equations just in a click of a button.

For example let say we want to solve this complex equation which is -

x³ - 4x² + 6x - 24 = 0

Use this query to solve the above complex equation

Isn’t it so simple ? Now what if we want to plot a graph of the above equation. Just add the word plot before the equation and Wolfram alpha will show you the exact graph in x-y plane or use this query for plotting graph.

Wolfram alpha can be used to solve Elementary Mathematics problem, Algebra, Calculus, Geometry, Number Theory, Applied Mathematics, Set Theory, Discrete Mathematics, Trigonometry and whatever you can think of in Mathematics.

If you are a student and are interested in computational knowledge then Wolfram Alpha is a must try. You’ll surely love it. Just keep experimenting and you can be mathematics genius very soon!

China celebrates Tiananmen Anniversary by blocking Twitter, Flickr, Bing and Blogger

whibb — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 09:37:00 +0000

On occasion of 20th anniversary of Tiananmen massacre on June 4th, China has cut down all means of social networking and social media through the internet.

This means that Chinese people won’t have access to Twitter, Flickr , Blogspot and Microsoft’s new Search Engine Bing. Earlier Youtube was blocked for a while in China and then even Wikipedia was blocked for sometime.

One should notice that only during this time of the year when Tiananmen massacre is coming near, China makes it Firewall more tight restricting access to number of internet sites including means of social networking.

Though it’s very hard to say that whether this change will be permanent or temporary but if you see the comments section at this Mashable article you’ll know about frustrations of the Chinese people.

Why is that China always need to build a great (Fire)wall ? Let the freedom prevail everywhere.
