OmFgSh!


"The electronics market today is more and more concentrating in designing products that are not just good to look at but also possess other features like, being light weight, thin, wire less, water proof and also shock resistant. This technology is termed as nano-technology which surely puts the old adage that good things come in small packages, hence this technology which is still in its nascent stage as there is still research happening and more features being added and developed, it will be good for 3 to 4 years before we can actually see the technology affecting our daily lives."
Wooo. This looks so wooo. Look at the darn thing. It looks so thin. And so fargile. Like it is made of glass or something. It seems like anyone can just break it in half, with out trying. Woo. But to be honest this thing is pretty tight. I never saw something like this. Like how does the window and screen come up? Weird...

Wooo! Its a KTM CX!



"The KTM CX concept symbolizes the sheer advancement of technology which has been successfully employed to create this racing vehicle. This piece of locomotive device sports a junk but stylish looks. The body frame features a classic combination of shining black and icy silver. These two colors are teamed with hint of bright orange that enhances the overall look noticeably. The theory of surface tension is deployed in this vehicle so that it can provide uninterrupted motion even on the water surface. While passing through the water, the vehicle will emerge itself in the water and act like the smooth surfboards."
Wow! This thing looks so awesome. Look at it. It is like a vehicle that surfs on water. Like a surfboard, they say. It has a smooth ride and all. Like an "uninterrupted morion even on water surface."It looks like a motorcycle. Like a really cool looking motorcycle. Zaid, don't you like motorcylces and stuff like that? This looks pretty cool.. I think its even better than a plain old motorcycle. ;] Haha.

Kids Spaceship?!?



"The Second Solar Spaceship, designed by Different Futures, placed in the German city of Boblingen is the most elaborate children’s toy. The spaceship as the name suggest is the replica of any regular spaceship minus the ability to fly. This three level toy is interactive spaceship also has a 3-D cinema, a laboratory and even an alien breeding ground! The concept has jet engines and the circular docking pods are used for connecting to orbiting stations. This toy is a nice means of educating the kids as to how a real space ship works so that they are more knowledgeable."




Coolness! This new toy is a great oppurtunity for kids to have fun and learn about space. This allows the kid or passesnger to see how going into space really happens. This new toy is also really great for people who always wanted to go into space and just can't make it or wants to learn how to go up there first. Like, Fahmaan. He wants to go into space one day, inshallah. He should probably check this out so he would know how going to space really feels and all.
^_^

Cool New Ride. :]




"The new prototype by Fredrik Hyltén-Cavallius can be termed to be revolutionary in terms of both design and concept. The concept vehicle can be said to be a replacement for the tried and tested mountain gondola for transporting between the mountains. For the starters this open faced sun-powered pod comes out to be a strong contender with good strong safety harnesses to support the device. This two-seater wonder has a sliding floor and it slides on the two wires hence it is more stable in high winds as compared to how a regular gondola will be. Overall it’s quite a chic product."




Omg! This is so cool. Omg. I really want to go on there. But, like, what if teh rop breaks and you fall and die. Wo. It is a big risk to do. But you know what? I am willing to do it. This is so amazingly cool. It is simply awesome. :]

Hadeeth.


On the authority of Abu Malik al-Harith bin 'Asim al-Ash'ari, radiyallahu 'anhu, who said: The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, said:
"Purification is half of iman (faith). Saying 'Al-Hamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) fills the scales. Saying 'Subhanallah wa al-Hamdulillahi' (Exhalted be Allah and Praise be to Allah) fills the space between the heavens and the earth. Salah (prayer) is a light. Sadaqah (charity) is a proof. Sabr (patience) is a shining glory. The Qur'an is an argument either for you or against you. Everybody goes out in the morning and sell themselves, thereby setting themselves free or destroying themselves."
[Muslim]


Really meaningful and good hadeeth. Read and follow. :]

Chinese Fake Gadgets #2









Meizu M8 / Apple iPhone

"Meizu M8 can be called the most famous iPhone clone - it made a huge buzz in the Internet and even today it draws much attention. It almost completely copies the Apple design and features - this helped Meizu to gain popularity using the world's craziness about the iPhone and its launch. Meizu company was frequently banned from participating in many official events, all because of this similarity between Apple and Meizu gadgets. Many Chinese fakes have design that is copied from iPhone, however very few of them can stand even close to the original in terms of hardware. Meizu M8 is a very interesting and unusual replica, which comes very close to the iPhone and even, in some cases, overcomes it. Meizu M8 supports one of the main features of original iPhone - Multi Touch, so this technology is not exclusive to Apple anymore. Inside it carries 667 MHz ARM CPU, 256 MB of internal and 8 / 16 GB of flash memory, has 3.4 inched LCD with 720 x 480 pixel resolution, 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus - all of these specs make Apple device look less powerful than its Chinese opponent. It operates on Meizu OS, which is based on a Windows CE 6.0. Wireless interfaces are also full-scale supported: device has Bluetooth 2.0 and Wi-Fi. Last but not least, Meizu M8 has light and motion sensor that can detect the phone's position and the amount of light that surrounds it - for backlight adjustments or other purposes. Like the previous contestant, this one can be called a very successful rip-off."


Nokir 828 / Nokia N73
"As we can see, Nokia and Apple have the most noticeable crowd of Chinese clones, probably due to popularity of these brands. Very often copies play around with famous brand name, changing it a little, so it is recognizable but not matching. This one is only one letter different from Nokia name, changing it to Nokir. Another lousy attempt to enhance Nokia smartphone with a touchscreen - this is the one and only enhancement over the original device, Chinese fake fails in everything else. Of course, there are no Symbian inside, instead, it has creepy shell that is badly translated and looks ugly. QVGA screen is 2.6 inched and is sensitive to touch - feature that Nokia's smartphone is really missing. It features 3GP / MP4 full screen playback, voice recording, WAP, GPRS and polyphonic ringtones. Sadly, there is no Bluetooth in there, which automatically throws this phone from the market N73 targets on - even the cheapest phones nowadays has Bluetooth, so it is unacceptable that a phone for 200 dollars, like this one, hasn't. For a 200 dollar price you'll get Chinese manual, spare battery, stereo handsfree and 128 MB microSD card - at least you can practice in reading Chinese after all."



Nokia N95 8GB (?) / Nokia N95 8GB

"While previous contestants were just partially copying design of the famous brands, and wanted to make something by themselves, this time we are talking about complete fake - company that made this rip-off faked even the Nokia label. Specifications claim that it is a Single SIM GSM Phone with 2.6-inch TFT Screen, Supports Bluetooth Function - not so different from the original at the first sight, but beware: it is much worse than real N95. While it seems that it has a frontal camera, it hasn't, this is just a sticker. No Symbian too, it operates on a weird shell not so different from other cheap Chinese phones using, with ugly font and bad translation. Instead of 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, it has bad 2 megapixel camera with no autofocus. No radio support, no GPS, no 3G networks, and, of course, no 8 GB of internal memory. Perhaps Nokia doesn't want to waste its energy to battle fakes like this, because majority of them are home-made industry. They can't hurt Nokia's sales, but they do confuse consumers, so stay sharp and watch closely before buying some of the popular models over the internet. The only reason for somebody to buy this pile of junk is small price, so if you don't have money for real N95 you can show off with this fake one."

Things We Waste.

Ten Things We Waste

1. Our Knowledge: Wasted by not taking action with it
2. Our Actions: Wasted by committing them without sincerity.
3. Our Wealth: Wasted by using on things that will not bring us ajr (reward from Allah). We waste our money, our status, our authority, on things which have no benefit in this life or in akhirah (hereafter).
4. Our Hearts: Wasted because they are empty from the love of Allah, and the feeling of longing to go to Him, and a feeling of peace and contentment. In it's place, our hearts are filled with something or someoneelse.
5. Our Bodies: Wasted because we don't use them in ibadah (worship) and service of Allah.
6. Our Love: Our emotional love is misdirected, not towards Allah, but towards something/someone else.
7. Our Time: Wasted, not used properly, to compensate for that which has passed, by doing what is righteous to make up for past deeds.
8. Our Intellect: Wasted on things that are not beneficial, that are detrimental to society and the individual, not in contemplation or reflection.
9. Our Service: Wasted in service of someone who will not bring us closer to Allah, or benefit in dunyaa.
10. Our Dhikr (Remembrence of Allah): Wasted, because it does not effect us or our hearts.

Wow! I think this is very true. Now a days we waste all our thoughts and bodies on things that can't help us in the here-after. Waste them on things that are in this life only. We should all do better and remember Allah always, no matter what. Let Allah guide us to the straight path. Amen!
