Mankind has reached to a level of creating technology powered life forms and this is where the scariest thing lies as these new creations are now able to think. What if they go against their creator ?

The ethical storm got triggered soon after this invention and researchers and critics are in discussions on whether to allow the process into the ecology.

The reason lies in the mindset of the Danes. Their philosophy of life is different for the good and sets as a paradigm for the rest of the world.

“Expectations are the root cause for all the miseries.” 

Danes have understood that better and seamlessly executed that in their daily life. Majority of Danes do not have great expectations and they take their life as it comes rather than getting into manipulations. Their basic approach towards life is more optimistic. When the things go wrong, instead of being embarrassed, a typical Dane would rather be happy for the things did not get as bad as expected.

No wonder, the country has least or almost no corruption. Well, that is justified enough because people don’t have to be corrupt for getting anything as they get what ever they need by spending almost nothing. They basically do not know how to spend their money as they don’t have to in many situations because the basic education including university studies is free, medical expenses including complicated surgeries are free. They would obviously pay for their groceries and utilities which are pretty inexpensive in the country. So, what is that they need huge money for ??.  They are very satisfied in their work culture also. I have read some where that Danish people get great employment benefits including medical insurances  and they get to spend at least seven to eight weeks of paid vacations every year. Interestingly, they voluntarily pay huge taxes of about 60-70% of their earned income. It’s quite logical as they don’t need to pile up their money for their government takes good care of them. When they get all that they need for less or almost no money being spent, obviously people would be satisfied. There would not be any stampede for money and the corruption ceases to exist. One of my friend who stayed in Denmark told that the Danish policemen would spend most of the time on their vacations as they don’t have anything serious to do in the society for the people have no grievances to complain about.

A country like Denmark sets a good exemplary reference for reaching up to for many countries where corruption got deeply imprinted into the DNA of the people.

Below video gives you a good idea about the mindset of a typical Danish.

Denmark is the least corrupted nation while India lies on the opposite spectrum. Unfortunately it ends up in the “highest corrupted” list.

So, In what way is India different from Denmark ?? –

A typical Indian has no faith or confidence in their politicians. A majority of them use their voting right just for the sake of using it. They get bribed and who ever gives more bribe, they get sold for them. Some others think that if even if they pay correct taxes, that would only benefit politicians and in no way people get benefitted. The chameleons change colors for their own sustenance while the politicians change colors to leave no chance for the people’s sustenance. Even the chameleons feel deeply ashamed and insulted for their name is being used along with politicians. The government in Denmark is an amalgamation of democracy and monarchy. Politicians are elected by the people while they are not vested complete powers. While India is a complete democracy, it need a great deal of change to be something like Denmark.

So, Can India be another Denmark ??..

Unfortunately, the answer for such a question would only be a “conditional YES” rather than a more “confident YES” because such a major positive impact would result from a great deal of change in the society and more from the mindset of people and even more specifically from the mindset of the politicians who shamelessly eat away a lion’s share from the generated revenue.

Watch the iShoe in action !

Below screen shot shows you the functionality of Gesture Search. By drawing a letter ‘h’ on your touch screen pulls up items with ‘H’.

Now see the same in action !

Unfortunately, this cool app is available only for Android powered phones. If you are a Nexus One user, Go get this app from Google Labs !

How much ever people use smart phones today, I am sure they won’t throw their conventional laptop computers into the gutter. That’s because, there are lot of things a smartphone cannot do and similarly there are lot of things that a laptop cannot do. Hence smartphones and laptops are two things that do not jeopardize the existence of each other. If iPad has to be a perfect bridge between a smartphone and a conventional laptop, it should completely fade away the need to carry our laptops.

Can we manage our daily routine with iPad dumping our laptops into the gutter ??.

How about video conferencing and web meeting ??..  (Asking a camera for such a device would be foolish. But it still can have a basic webcam)

How best can the Safari browser present the Rich Internet Applications without having basic Flash Player support ??.. (Adobe came forward to offer Flash support for iPhone. I have no clue why Apple rejected that offer when it’s for their good in view of enhanced mobile browsing experience. IPad also has no Flash support)

What if we want to read some news online while instant messaging with our friends ?? (No Multitasking)

What if we want to do some programming or Can this device be our development machine ??

If iPad cannot answer any of the above issues, What is the use of having such a device which cannot completely free us from conventional laptops ??  It’s simply extra luggage to have.

With No Webcam, No Multitasking, No Flash, No USB port, No SD Card,.. It’s simply an enlarged iPhone !!!.

A Netbook is far more promising device which is a perfect bridge between a smartphone and conventional laptop !! (It relieves us from the need to carry laptops and with various location based services including GPS, it can do most of the things that a smartphone does)

Anyways, I hope iPad 2.0 which might come in future won’t be a technological flaw.

Though the Photoshop.com Mobile App has not all the great features of the actual desktop version of Photoshop, it is certainly good in its own way by offering minimal features for any mobile user to get start right away. But this is just a start and we can expect a lot more because the Photoshop brand certainly rocks as everyone knows.
