Love can be understood only by Time

Once there was an island where feelings Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love resides.One day someone called the emergency alarm and bewared to the feelings about sinking of island , then all the feeling prepared their boats and moved on. Only one feeling stayed that was Love. Love wished to stop until island would start sinking. When Love was almost sunk, he tried to ask for his help.

Richness came first in a beautiful boat. Love said, “Richness, may I come with you?” Richness replied, “No, I can’t help you as there is no space for you as lots of gold and silver in my boat.

Love determined to ask Proudness who was also going by, “Proudness , please help me!”.  “Sorry! You are already wet and will harm my boat,” Proudness replied.

Sadness was also passing by so Love again asked for help, “Sadness, please help me and take me with you". "I want to go alone as no one can accompany me”, replied by Sadness.

Happiness was passing by too, but he was very happy that he didn't bother about any one!

All of sudden voice came, “Love come to my boat.” It was a Wiseness.. When they reached  land , the elder had gone on her own way. Love asked Wiseness, the name of the feeling who had helped him. “It was Time,” answered Wiseness.

“Time? Why Time shows his interest in saving me?” asked Love.

“It is because only time has the understanding power that how great Love is,” replied Wiseness.

Google Voice Actions can launch Automatically preferred App

The Google Search app v4.0 on Android can acquire knowledge of your preferred apps to perform certain repeated voice actions via 'OK Google' commands that don't specify the app.

Google depicts the new forms in a support document for OK Google voice search and actions on its site, first spotted by Android Police. Once users give the same voice command multiple times and select the same app, Google will learn this is the preferred app for the function, and by default launch the app automatically when the same command is given again.

For example if the user gives an OK Google demand to play a particular song, the smartphone would give app options on a card such as  Google Play Music,YouTube and others apps which support the audio playback feature and have the song. On selecting one of the apps and pressing the play button many times, Google would make it as the default app and would open it every time for the same command. Other commands include 'scan receipts' said by Google.

Users would also be able to remove the automatically launching of preferred apps by entering the text command instead of voice command, and clicking on cancel 'X' icon alongside the default app. Once users do this a few times, Google will no longer launch the app automatically.

Computer and mobile technology could enable Blind people "See"

Computer scientists and developers are developing new susceptible mobile technology that could help blind and visually-impaired people to ‘see’ through their digital devices or smarts phones. The team aims to use color and depth sensor technology inside new smartphones and tablets, like the recent Project Tango by Google, to enable 3 dimensional mapping, navigation and object recognition.

Facebook has updated its logo for the first time since 2005.

According to information, this change is only a revitalize of the company's word-mark, which is the text-only version of its logo used for identifying its brand in new way.

Josh Higgins, Facebook's creative director, said that the company aims to bring the logo up to date to make its look and feel more friendly and approachable instead of a full redesign the Facebook.

Things aren't always what it seem: Inspiring one

Two wandering angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a rich family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the luxurious guest room. Instead, the angels were given a small space in the very cold basement. As they made their bed on the harsh floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and fix it. Then the younger angel asked why you repaired, the older angel replied, "Things aren't always what it seem."

The next night, the pair stayed at the house of a very poor family, but very generous farmer and his wife. After sharing what food they all had, they let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's relaxation. The next morning when the sun rose, the angels found the couple in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their only income of source, found dead in the field. The younger angel was annoyed and asked the older angel, How could you have let this happen? The first man had everything and was rude too, yet you helped him," she accused. "The second family had nothing but was ready to share everything that they had, and you let the cow die.

"Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel responded. "When we stayed in the basement of the mansion or luxurious flat , I noticed there was gold repository inside hole. Since the owner was full of greed and unwilling to share his good wealth, I sealed the wall so he couldn't ever find it." "Then last night as we rest in the farmer's bed, the angel of death had come for his wife. I gave her life of cow instead. Things aren't always what it seem." Sometimes, that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way it seems they should.
