Google Picasa shutting down

By

Google Picasa will no longer be active. It will be unavailable from 1 may, 2016. So picasa lovers switch over to Google's future said product; Google Photos.

Google Picasa was merely used as a photo manager, editor and as well as a great photo organiser. It got many version upgrades and eacj upgrade had something new in store for the users. Probably i have used Picasa a year ago and had a lots of fun in it and then i switched over to Google Photos which was far better than Picasa according to me. Now Photos is my only app which backs up my photos and videos daily.

Google on Friday said it will be shuttering Picasa to shift its focus to the new Google Photos service launched less than a year ago.

"We believe we can create a much better experience by focusing on one service that provides more functionality and works across mobile and desktop, rather than divide our efforts across two different products," Google Photos chief Anil Sabharwal said in a blog post.

Pictures or videos in Picasa online albums will be automatically available in people's Google Photos accounts, according to Sabharwal.

Those wishing not to shift to the new service will still be able to view, download or delete photos in Picasa albums, but the software won't be updated and adding images won't be an option.

"We apologize for any inconvenience this transition causes, but we want to assure you that we are doing this with the aim of providing the best photos experience possible," Sabharwal said.

"Google Photos is a new and smarter product."

Google Calculator's most awaited feature..

By

This wasn't perfect as a calculator though. Why? It did not have 'show history' feature as most of other calculators had. This was a big problem to be looked into as it was the most essential feature for every user. And it was easiest feature Google could add in it's app. Yet Google wasn't seem to be looking into it and this resulted in bad reviews on play store. But on Jan 11, 2017; this feature was added by Google and now the operation history in the app can be seen by swiping down from the top. Also another feature which was needed to be added was MS, MR, M+, M-. The MS (Memory Store) button copies the number from the screen to the memory. The MR (Memory Recall) button brings the memory value back to the screen. M+ and M- add or subtract the screen value from the memory val...

Best Stock Management Software for FREE

By
So, are you looking for FREE Stock Management Software online? Even my friend was looking for the same until he discussed me if I could make it for him. Why? There weren’t many options available for the requirements he had for his Business. He needed a solution in Excel with no VBA (Later on I added some to make it even better and faster).           He needed Stock Management Automation for Electronics with Excel so that he could further go and use it for Analytics. I created him the Excel software as per the requirements and showed it to him which he loved at the first glance. After he started using it, he wasn’t going back to manual work ever again.             After this review, I thought why not to share the Best Stock Management Software with the world made by just using Excel which everyone has it installed nowadays. Here Are Some Key Features of the Stock Management soft...
