Nonstop releases of music phones from Nokia leads to nonstop download of tracks from Nokia Music Store, and that is the new 5235 comes with music. The sibling of the 5235 is the 5230 announced last last month. With the new brother comes with music variant, nothings going to be change or to be upgrade still the specs of the 5235 is almost the same to its predecessor.

Revealing the spreadsheet would be saying that the 5235 specs are for midrange people who love to grab the unlimited music downloads.

Main attractions to 5235:

The 3.5mm audio jack, 3.2” resistive screen, built in GPS/Ovi Maps, microSD card slot upgradeable up to 16GB, S60 5^th edition and lastly the 3G @HSDPA 3.6Mbps.

The counter part of the good specs is obviously having the cons, and here they are:


No Wi-Fi, 2MP camera with no flash/video light and no secondary camera. But as long as your budget is in on the price of the phone, exactly you will not miss comes with music plus 5235. The average price of the 5235 comes with music is USD 215 or Euro 145.

Nokia 5235 resembles the design as 5800 xpressmusic. They look gorgeous with the silver lining.

Nokia calling for OVI Suite version 2.1 beta testers . After long time Nokia calling for beta testers for the PC suite’s matured version OVI Suite . It seems OVI suite will have lot of new changes and improvements.

I got the invitation today from Nokia ,this is my seond time joining a beta testing with Nokia .I will update further information time to time.

Few days ago a video was uploaded on YouTube about an unconfirmed blueprint of the Nokia’s successor of the camera flagship lines. The video shows that the phone has a model name of N87 12MP, another part of the phone were it carries a 3.2” capacitive screen, DLED flash, Xenon, and said to be a double slider touchscreen phone. What the f*ck did I mentioned 12MP? Absolutely Yes! This phone has the treasure and that’s the Carl Zeiss 12.1MP boosting the phone.

In the video, it speaks that this mega-monster carries a monstrous 16GB internal memory, with hot and sizzling processor of 600Mhz and lastly it would be nicer to know that the N87 itself has 480 x 800 pixel of resolution.

The only questions on the story are if this monster have a hidden Symbian signed on it, or another Maemo friend and luckily if this leak is true maybe it will just surprise us that the phone will support a special graphics processing unit or GPU integrated for itself only.

Some of you may not believe and just laugh the information that been given, that’s right on the video it tells something weird, and that’s the button keys of call and end. They were placed together and with a small space only. We can’t still judge on the information given because we don’t know Nokia already planned and innovative the style of putting the 2 keys together.

Believe it or not, still this video will put on the line of unconfirmed data that roams on the world wide web. Even this information will be testify as a hoax, still I am glad that N87 already lives in our hood. Maybe it is just waiting for the right moment to shows itself to the public.

Twitter introduced a new feature called “Lists” today and giving access for this beta feature for few accounts only. All users will get this feature after beta testing.

Basically Twitter “Lists”  is a grouping feature ,helps you to group the list of the people you are following  according to the category/interests .

Lists are timelines you build yourself, consisting of friends, family, co-workers, sports teams, you name it. You’re part of a small group receiving this feature, so don’t tweet about it yet!-Twitter

The lists feature is very useful and I  have tested , working fine . When you organize the people you are following into groups, it is easy to identify the number of the people who are following back from the group  .In the following illustration I have created a List called Mobile_Group.

Twitter Lists Sample

Update : It is working fine with Nokia N97 and Xpress Music 5800 . No much differences between the mobile site and touch site. Let us see the future improvements .

Video ads are being displayed in paper magazines . A small video screen like mobile phone display and chip to keep the video file inserted in the Magazine’s page displays the video ads.

For the first time in the world ,Pepsi and US TV network – CBS jointly tried this idea.

Over to BBC News :

The small screen, built into a cardboard insert, contains an advert for Pepsi Max and trailers for US TV network, CBS.
There are also in-built speakers, so the viewer can hear the advert too.
“This is an extraordinary way to refresh how we interact with consumers,” said Pepsi-Cola’s chief marketing officer, Frank Cooper.
Chip technology is used to store the video – described as similar to that used in singing greeting cards – which is activated when the page is turned.
The slim-line screens – around the size of a mobile phone display – also have rechargeable batteries.
Each chip can hold up to 40 minutes of video. BBC News’ Los Angeles correspondent, Rajesh Mirchandani, said that the magazine advert was mounted inside a cardboard insert, so it was “instantly distinguishable from a normal flimsy page”.

“You can’t really flick through the magazine, because the 4-page insert that includes the video screen is relatively bulky. “And when you do open up the relevant page, the actual advert takes several seconds to load and play and that’s a lifetime’s lag in the advertiser’s world,” he added. Copies of the magazine containing the screens are being sent out to several thousand subscribers in Los Angeles and New York.

CBS and Pepsi won’t say how much this limited commercial trial is costing, but manufacturers Americhip told BBC News that a multi-thousand print run with built-in screens would cost in the region of US $20 (around £13) for each magazine.
This has prompted criticism from some quarters, saying that the internet has already been delivering video-embedded-in-text for some time.

Microsoft  – Nokia the new alliance for Mobile Office development on Nokia devices has been  announced recently . We expected to see some shock waves on Quick Office ,the company developed Mobile Office and shipped it with Millions of Nokia devices so far.

But the company still remains cool with confident on their unmatched experience  of Software developments on Symbian platform.

Quick Office says :

• We believe that the Office and Mobile Productivity market is an important space. This announcement highlights the relevance of our Mobile Office and mobile productivity market.
• Quickoffice will continue to support our worldwide user base. We’re shipping on over 100M smartphones and our next version, which includes many of these announced features by Microsoft, will ship on 200M Symbian phones before Microsoft’s product comes out in the marketplace. We have a robust feature roadmap coming on Symbian and our experience on this platform is unmatched.
• Quickoffice is one of the leading Symbian developer, but our sales on Symbian devices does not make up a majority of Quickoffice revenue. Quickoffice has always developed for a diversified portfolio of smartphone OS’ and will continue to innovate and expand our product line. Our ‘Quickoffice for iPhone’ suite is the #1 application in the Business Category on the App Store, and our file management capabilities, which provide remote access to content and documents, highlight a few features in our roadmap.
• Nokia and Microsoft are touching on a suite of services which we refer to as “Connected Services”, and it represents the next generation of our thinking in the Mobile Office market. Quickoffice has some great solutions coming out in this space which will make Office accessible to a broader audience.

It is true that Microsoft is too late to enter the Symbian platform for it’s office development. The Microsoft’s alliance with Nokia is starting with Mobile Office development but it will continue on some other major developments in order to handle rivals of both companies .

A couple of months ago, social media analytics firm Sysomos closely analyzed the people on Twitter and how the service was being used. What it found, among other things, was that five percent of Twitter’s 11.5 million accounts post about 75% of all the tweets. That led the firm to dig in deeper on that five percent.

This week, the company released the results of the deeper study and highlighted a few important findings about that elite five percent:

• 32 percent of all tweets made by that active group were generated by machine bots that posted more than 150 tweets per day.
• The number of machine-generated tweets is probably greater because many of the bots post fewer than 150 times a day.
• Based on the two reports, it appears that nearly one-quarter (24 percent) of all tweets overall are generated by those active bots.

However, these bots are necessarily Twitter spammers. These are the automated tweets that comes from sources such as news services. Here at ZDNet, for example, you can follow our blog posts via an automated Twitter feed. I actually subscribe to a lot of these bot-generated tweets – CNN, The New York Times, CNET and so on. In a blog post, Sysomos co-founder and CEO Nick Koudas said:

It’s a fascinating exercise to really focus on the most enthusiastic Twitter users, and what they are doing. Our findings, particularly the percentage of tweets contributed by bots, is definitely eye-opening and we hope they shed light on how Twitter is used today and by whom. We think this is one of the first reports to focus on the most active members of the Twitter community to provide interesting insight and perspective. We will continue our updates with additional analysis of the micro-blogging service.

Also worth noting is that 88 percent of this active group posts at least once a day. Of that group, about one-third joined this year, compared to the 72 percent of all Twitter users who are new this year. Lastly, the most popular keywords within the bios for those active users included: Internet marketing, music lover, Web designer, video games, and husband/father.
