Content adaptation

Small is big, is the mantra for our generation. It is taken to be the gospel truth; hence it has been followed strictly. And the result is for everyone to see. Everything is shrinking. Be it clothes or websites.
For websites to get smaller is not a feasible option, but to enable it on a small device, definitely is! And so it has been done. Personal Digital Assistants or PDA’s can now allow websites to be displayed on their screens and be worked on. And the process of shrinking the website from our computer screen to the PDA screen is what we call content adaptation.
Simply put, content adaptation is the process by which content is made adaptable or suitable for other devices. It often branches out into media content and web content. And this content is what is reformed and made adaptable for the small screen thriving in the palm of your hand.
While one may not put much thought to it while using or browsing the data on the mobile phone, content adaptation, indeed has had a historic beginning. It is gaining momentum and will very soon dominate the entire internet market. The end is nowhere in sight and will not be as long as mobile phone screens stay small.
Websites have to launch mobile-friendly versions for them to work on the PDA’s but some cell phones such as the I-phone, have websites that are specially modified for them. Reason being, that specific phones, such as the I-phone cannot comprehend the mobile friendly version of certain sites.
People may introduce complex devices like the Blackberry and the I-phone, but nothing is going to stop content adaptation to work on them. Mobile internet is the next big ‘thing’ in the world of the internet and nothing can stop it from spreading like the virus!

Epitome of equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...
