Technology Social Networks -An Evolution for IT Firm

Social networking platforms have gained immense popularity among people from all walks of life, with features like social profile sharing, liking or commenting on posts or activities of others on their timeline. Social networking sites fall under two categories - general and technical.

General social networking sites encourage social interaction by allowing people to create their social profile. People on general social networking sites share their ideas, photographs of events they have lately attended, and post comments on images and content of others. However, a general social networking platform does not include ‘Niche Targeted Approach’. As a result, many people come across posts and ideas they don’t understand well, thus ignore them. Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, LinkedIn and Instagram are some great examples of general social networking sites.

A technical social platform is the one that enables collaboration of like-minded people related to some technology. The content shared on technical social networks is only meant for people who either know or want to learn technology. For example, an Android developer can share his expertise or get his queries resolved by connecting to a person who knows about Android on Android Developer Forum. Likewise, there are many social networks available online for diverse fields, such as medical, programmers, travelers, lawyers etc. Some brilliant examples of technical social sites are Stack Overflow, Code Project, FindNerd.com, Dreamincode.net, Snipplr.com and C-Sharpcorner.com.

Benefits of tech social media sites are as follows

• Tech portfolio presentation
• Paves the way for social collaboration with other techies
• Posting and reading make tech social sites a kind of knowledge sharing center,Tutorials make learning easy
• People can easily find answers to their technical queries

Creating a portfolio on a technical social site generally requires a profile picture, skill-set details, like Php, Java, C etc, a brief summary about the user, academic qualification, specialization and achievements. What sets apart a general social networking site from a technical one is connection with like-minded people only. On a tech social networking site you have a large community of people who share ideas related to a particular technology, therefore eliminates any room for irrelevant information. A portfolio on a tech SM site lets others know about you and your expertise. You could become a popular member of a particular tech SM site by sharing posts that are important and resolving queries of other techies.

Members share content on a tech sites through blogs, journals, tutorials, case studies, answers to queries etc. People find technical SM sites very engaging as they discuss technology through comments and replies like an iOS developer can easily discuss their ideas on any iOS developer forum. The same features are also available on general SM sites, but Tech SM sites give rise to much better engagement. Virtues of Tech SM sites are not restricted only to computer/software industry as education, banking, telecommunication, etc seek benefits from them too.

Content marketing has now become an important cog in the wheel of marketing strategies. Almost every business understands the importance of content marketing and has a dedicated team for posting and sharing quality content through digital media. Content marketing helps attract visitors to a website. Once people start recognizing you through what you are saying and offering to them, they are more likely to become your loyal customers.

Human beings keep on evolving to adapt to difficult conditions and become better. Same goes for technology that has showed us some incredible advancements to make this world a much better place. General SM sites have enjoyed a great success in the last five years. But it’s now time for Tech SM sites, like FindNerd and Stack Overflow, to become a bandwagon. It’s a simple calculation, “the more we learn, the more we earn” and technical SM sites are providing the best platform to people world over to connect to technical experts and increase learning.

How to Move Make Objects by Adding Force in Unity

There are two methods to make object move in unity:

 1. By changing its Transform (Position).
 2. By adding Force by using AddForce() method.


In this blog I have mentioned, how we can make object move by adding force. Force and Velocity both are component of Physics. So, to make our gameobject come under influence of Physics we must attach a rigid body to it and then we can code it to move by adding force in different direction. Below is the script for your reference.

5 Tips for Maximizing Your Web Application Performance

Web applications are growing in popularity with every passing day due to a plethora of benefits it offers to users. With an internet connection, you can easily access a web app from any corner of the world. Unlike basic apps, a web app is not required to be installed on your computer. One of the examples of web apps is Google Docs, which gives you freedom to compile and maintain your docs without having MS Word installed on your system. All you need is a web browser to access a web app which sits on a web server, not your computer. Web apps are engaging and respond to users. However, despite many virtues of web apps, users walk away from a web app that takes a lot of time to load and does not provide a kind of experience users demand and expect.

 

This article offers five tips to ensure high performance of your web app

1. Bandwidth: make sure you web app is available to everyone

Bandwidth issues generally crop up when there is a big surge in number of your web app users. For example, if you have a retail web app, you must keep in mind that festival seasons, like Christmas, will bring a lot of application traffic. If there is not enough bandwidth available, you will miss out on prospective buyers as no user likes to spend a lot of time on a web app that is too slow to load, especially when similar products are available via web apps of your competitors. Other ways to ensure high performance of your web app is to avoid hosting unnecessary images, videos and high resolution files. As each image sends a separate request to the web server, the performance of a web app is likely to decline. Web app development experts advice to consider bandwidth demands while designing a web app as your social media campaign and many other situations could lead to a sudden rise in numbers of web app users, making bandwidth a nemesis. HTTP compression plays a crucial role in improving performance of your web app. Compressed web pages give rise to higher speed of page downloads. Moreover, response time does not take long for a user for an HTTP request.

2. Give priority to CSS and Javascript location

The top of the website layout is the best place to display CSS links, whereas the bottom is the best for javascript. Load time increases when javascript is at the top. However, with CSS being at the top, users can easily see what they want even before the page fully loads.

3. Limit the communication with servers

The lesser the communication with servers, the better the speed and performance of a web app. You should...

Responsive Web Design and Responsive Frameworks

In this session, we will learn about Responsive Design and will check out some of the popular frameworks related to it. So, without much further ado, let's begin:

What is Responsive Design?

"Responsive web design (RWD) is an approach to web design aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices (from desktop computer monitors to mobile phones).” 

- Wikipedia

In other words, a RWD is a design which 'responds' or 'adjusts itself' to the device rendering it. This is achieved by using:

• • Fluid grids or Proportion based grids: Use relative units instead of absolute ones to size page elements. E.g. A page element measured in x% of the screen-size would be more flexible and adaptive than the one measured in fixed pixels or inches.
• • Flexible images: The above relativity principle applies to images as well.
• • CSS3 media queries: This allows one to use different CSS rules to configure the page according to the device.

What is a RWD Framework?

As one can imagine, the emergence of smart-phones and tablets as the primarily used devices for web browsing has necessitated the new (also the old) websites to adopt RWD in a big way. This necessity in turn, has given rise to a lot of techniques, which again by virtue of being similar (they have a common goal!), have lead to many RWD Frameworks. These frameworks are nothing but ready-made packages made up of a structure of files and folders of standardized code (HTML, CSS etc). These include pre-defined styles and rules such as the grid width, font sizes, button and form styles etc. which help us to create RWD compliant websites without reinventing the wheel every time!

So which Framework to use ?

Like we discussed above, since RWD has come up in such a big way, a lot of frameworks also have evolved. While the goal of each is to provide RWD compliance, they differ from each other based on the solutions they offer in terms of complexity of the design and the amount of flexibility one is after. Here, I will be providing a list of few popular frameworks with their features:

HTML5 Responsive Design - ViewPort Meta Tag (Part 3)

Hello Friends,

In this article, we’re going to focus on another important concept of responsive design, i.e. the 'Viewport Meta Tag'.

View-Port Overview

The viewport meta tag was introduced by Apple to help web developers improve the way web pages are displayed on the iPhone but obviously now it’s used for all mobile devices. This basically tells a mobile device, that the current page is optimized for mobile and it should display it in a certain way and not in the default web layout. In simple words: “A meta viewport tag provides the instructions to the browser on how to manage the page's dimensions and scaling.” The zooming in and out of the page that you can do is because of this whole viewport business only. Let’s look at how we use the meta tag:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

In the above example, this meta tag instructs the mobile device to not zoom. This allows the responsive design for mobile devices to be loaded in the scripts.

 

Virtual Viewport can be split into two:

Visual Viewport: The part of the page which is currently shown on the screen.
Layout Viewport: Visual Viewport + The part of the page which currently lies outside the display area. This is basically the mobile equivalent of desktop resolution. Safari iPhone uses 980px, Opera 850px, Android WebKit 800px, and IE 974px as the default.

In the above examples, we saw only two properties of the viewport meta tag: width and initial-scale; but there are others which are listed in the following table:

Property	Description
width	The width of the virtual viewport of the device.
device-width	The physical width of the device's screen.
height	The height of the "virtual viewport" of the device.
device-height	The physical height of the device's screen.
initial-scale	The initial zoom when visiting the page. 1.0 does not zoom.
minimum-scale	The minimum amount the visitor can zoom on the page. 1.0 does not zoom.
maximum-scale	The maximum amount the visitor can zoom on the page. 1.0 does not zoom.
user-scalable	Allows the device to zoom in and out. Values are yes or no.

Above mentioned properties of the viewport would be added in the 'Head' section of our website. Below are some examples which show how we can implement these viewport elements:

• In case your mobile design is set at 320px, we can specify the viewport width:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=320">

• For fluid layouts, we need to match our layout width to the device width:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">

• To take the advantage of the entire landscape mode and to manage full screen mode of device browser, we add the attribute 'initial-scale=1', which command the device browsers to form a 1:1 relationship between “CSS Pixels” and the “Device Independent Pixels (DIPs)” irrespective of device orientation:

<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1">

• Arrange an accessible viewport: In addition to set the initial-scale, we can also control the following attributes on the viewport:
  
  • minimum-scale
  • maximum-scale
  • user-scalable
  These attributes are essential to restrict the user's ability to zoom the viewport, potentially creating content render issues.
• Combining Viewport Values: The viewport meta tag can add individual values as well as multiple values, allowing multiple viewport properties to be set at once.
• 
  
  ** Whenever we need to add or combine multiple viewport attributes in a single set, we have to use “Comma(,)” after the attribute. E.g.:
  
  
  <meta name="viewport"content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1">

CSS Viewport Rule:

“This specification provides a way for an author to specify, in CSS, the size, zoom factor, and orientation of the viewport that is used as the base for the initial containing block.”

- w3.org

Basically, this rule allows one to attain the functionality of the viewport meta tag by way of CSS @viewport keyword without cluttering up their HTML. This method helps to keep the style separately for content and provide a more semantic approach. Like viewport meta tag was introduced by Apple, this approach was first proposed by Microsoft in the light of IE10 explorer ignoring viewport meta tag in some situations.

Examples

@viewport {

width: device-width;

zoom: 1;

}

@-ms-viewport{

width: extend-to-zoom;

zoom: 1.0;

}

End of this Session

In my last two blogs, I talked about the 'Media Queries' for responsive design. These are follows -

• 1. HTML5 Responsive Design- media Queries Tutorial 01
• 2. HTML5 Responsive Design- media Queries Tutorial 02

In this session, I have tried to cover as many aspects of 'ViewPort' as to give the reader a good enough understanding of its role in responsive design. However, the field of responsive design in itself is quite broad, so I’ll be coming up with some new related topics in my next articles. Hope you’re finding these sessions enjoyable and informative. Thanks!

Resolve The Canonical Issue with The Help of 301 Redirect

Hello reader!

In this Blog I will cover the topic, Canonical Issue, There Consequences and how to Resolve and get rid from such issues.

So lets first start with,

What is Canonical Issue

When the same content is displayed by the one website in different url then there is a canonical issue. For example- your website is abc.com and while entering the url in browser by www.abc.com and abc.com (without www) it show same content without redirecting it to abc.com or www.abc.com means that one should be the preferred url either www Or without www.

Consequences of Canonical Issues

In such case Search Engine (Google, Yahoo, Bing etc) index both the pages one which includes www and other one without www (www.abc.ocm and abc.com) separately which will lead to content duplicacy and will penalize the webpage.

How to Resolve Canonical Issue

To resolve such issue you have to make one preferred url either www or without www.

For example if you take a preferred url www.abc.com and user enter directly abc.com in browser it will be redirected to www.abc.com.

Now the question comes how to make one preferred URL

To make one preferred url web developer have to implement (301 redirect code) URL Redirection via code htaccess redirect in at backend of the website and set the status as "moved permanently".

How to Redirect to www using htaccess redirect

With the below code you can create a .htaccess file, which will ensure that all requests coming to i.e abc.com will get redirected to www.abc.com. The .htaccess file needs to be placed in the root directory of your old website (i.e the same directory where your index file is placed)

1. Options +FollowSymlinks
2. RewriteEngine on
3. rewritecond %{http_host} ^abc.com [nc]
4. rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.abc.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

Please use or take abc.com and www.abc.com with your actual domain/url name.
