You Will Hate Rihanna After Watching This Video! | Rihanna’s First Scandal – Facebook Scam
I’m not a big fan of Rihanna, but whosoever is, will hate this new scam spreading on Facebook. The scam claims to show a leaked video of Rihanna making out with someone. The scam has the title – “WOW – You Will hate RIHANNA after watching this video!” followed by a link and a description that reads – “You Will Lose All Respect For RIHANNA After Watching This.”
Please beware that this is a fake message that is being spread across the social network. When users click on the scam link, they are taken to a fake page, which appears like Facebook and contains a video player. Clicking on the play button will not load the video, but will ask you to share the video link with your friends on Facebook .

It is recommended that you DO NOT click on such links or scam messages on Facebook. If you come across this scam message, please delete/remove the scam from your Facebook news feed immediately. Alternately, you can report the scam to Facebook Security.
With over 800 million users on Facebook, the social networking giant has always been a main target for spreading scams. It is quite difficult to identify scams on Facebook.

Firefox 8 Officially Released! Download Now [Direct Links]
Finally after a series of betas and a candidate release, the official release of Mozilla’s Firefox 8 is now available for download.
The two main features of this latest release are Twitter Search as well as heightened security with increased add-on control.
Allowing consumers to be fully in control of the browsing experience has long-since been a fundamental part of Mozilla’s mission statement, and Firefox 8 takes it to the next level it would appear. Previously, third party vendors could be added to extend the capabilities of Firefox. Now, though, such add-ons are disabled.
Now of course, the browser can opt to enable add-ons, but as Mozilla programmer Justin Scott blogged, add-ons are not always beneficial to those browsing the Web.
“These add-ons installed by third parties present a number of problems: they can slow down Firefox start-up and page loading time,”
“They clutter the interface with toolbars that often go unused, they lag behind on compatibility and security updates, and most importantly, they take the user out of control of their add-ons.”
Firefox 8 is – as has always been the case – pre-loaded with add-ons, but this time around, users will be able to see from the onset which ones they particularly want / need, rather than unwittingly persevering with a slower browsing experience cluttered with unwanted extensions. When Firefox 8 is installed, a dialog box is fashioned, which lists add-ons, and asks which to enable and which to disable.
With Mozilla’s regular release schedule, it’s hard enough for us to keep up with the versions, and apparently developers behind add-ons also experience such troubles, leaving many bereft of updates through new versions and suffering compatibility issues. Smooth? I think not!
In addition to the add-on controls, Twitter Search integration will make it a lot easier for Tweeters to discover new topics, #hashtags and @usernames, although is initially limited to the English, Portuguese, Slovenian, and Japanese releases of Firefox 8. According to Mozilla’s official blog page, though, more languages will be rolling out during the course of the next few weeks.
Here are the download links for those of you wishing to update to the box-fresh browser.

Google Unviels Pages On Google+
UPDATE: Official KashTech page on Google+ is LIVE! Add us to your Circles now!
Google announced their new “Pages” feature to Google+ on their blog. The theme of their blog post centers around being able to connect with all the things you care about. Google+ Pages have been a long time in the making and are similar to the group and business pages you see on Facebook. They allow you to socialize with your favorite brands and businesses, in addition to people.
Organizations can go to plus.google.com/pages/create to start their new page. Though they said the new “Pages” feature rolls out worldwide today, it doesn’t appear to be available everywhere just yet. When I tried to create a page earlier, I received the message picture below.
The addition of “Pages” allows businesses to interact with their customers in new ways. Customers can now +1 a page or add them to their circles so they can always see updates from them. Google seems to be embracing the philosophy of connecting to people. Here is a quote from their blog:

behind every page (or storefront, or four-door sedan) is a passionate group of individuals, and we think you should able to connect with them too.
Google shared the following video to introduce their new “Pages” feature
At present, there are currently only a handful of pages available, such as the band All American Rejects, NFL outfit the Phoenix Suns, allegedly still relevant WWE as well as the fashion outlet that is H&M. We keenly await the more interesting Pages of the likes of Metallica, Apple andActivision – publishers of the "OMG, we can’t wait!" release of Call Of Duty, Modern Warfare 3.
Google+ Pages will now be included in Google search results. Google has also introduced a “Direct Connect” feature for its search engine. For example, if you are an Angry Birds fan, then you can type a “+” symbol followed by Angry Birds in the search box and it will take you directly to their Google+ page. Apparently there are only a limited number of “Direct Connect” pages available at this time.
The Big G will be rolling the service out to any organization pretty soon, so stay tuned for the KashTech Google+ Page. As soon as Google allows it, rest assured we’ll be there!

How to Click Great Photos with Your Phone
Phone camera is the most handy tool one can have to click pictures. As it is not so convenient for everyone to carry their DSLR / Point To Shoot cameras every time or sometimes the DSLR/ Point To Shoot camera is not just easily available at the moment when there is a good clickable view is available. So it is necessary to get the most out of a phone camera and get the best possible shot out of a phone camera. Here are some points which to me makes sense which can be considered while clicking a picture from your phone camera.
Keep the Phone steady
Hold the camera motionless and steady so that it doesn’t shake while you click. Keep both of the elbows steady and at the side to get some support from the body. Take a deep breathe, settle down and gently trigger the shutter release of your phone.
Know your shutter speed
If you’re clicking from an iPhone then you should know that it doesn’t click as soon as you press the button but when you release the pressing. So, when you press down the button, hold it steady when you release it or the blur created when it is shaken can make your images look bad.Optimize your Camera settings
If your phone offers an ISO change in setting, set it to Auto which is always a good option. If manually, set ISO to lowest when you’re clicking outdoor and maximum as the light goes darker.
Use Camera flash
Camera flash can be your secret weapon. You can use it even when you’re clicking during day time to reduce the shadow caused by the sunlight. It can get you even lighting if you’re very close to subject giving you the best of your click.Don’t use Digital Zoom
Digital zoom is nothing but zoom into your pixels causing noise. Your phone’s camera can’t adjust itself by moving its lens unlike in digital SLR cameras. So it is better to avoid digital zooming as much as possible.
