Create ebook from GOOGLE Docs in ePUB format



Currently Adobe PDF may be the most popular document format on the web Now a days ebook lovers prefer the ePub format over PDF. The main difference between epub and PDF is that PDF documents have a static layout with fixed page but the layout of an ePUB document is “responsive” meaning it will automatically adjust for different screen sizes.

We can read an ePub book on your desktop or inside the Google Play Books app on your Android phone and they’ll look good. Also, since ePub files are essentially HTML5 documents under the hood, the text size and font family can be easily adjusted for an improved reading experience.

There are various Free Apps like Adobe Stanza and Calibre are popular desktop software for  creating ePub ebooks. Google Drive provides interesting feature in the browser using Google Docs itself. All you need to just compase a document in Google Document, or upload an existing Microsoft Word file to your Google Drive, go to File menu and choose download as EPUB publication.

We get an ePub file that you can copy to your mobile phone or,which can be uploaded the ePub to the Google Books website and access the ebook from anywhere. You can even read it in the browser.
ePub files are readable on iPad, Nook and Google Play books but Amazon Kindle doesn’t support the ePub format but you can convert ePub into MOBI format that is supports Kindle.

New Feature in GMAIL :Block,Unsubscribe Email Sender


Google has added a new feature to Gmail which will help you clean up your inbox . The two features are “Block Sender” and “Unsubscribe.” The block function is currently available via Gmail for web, and allows you to block people from sending you emails. When you block a email ID it will move all email to your spam folder, so you never have to look at them.
How to Block ?
In order to block someone, open up an email from sender, click the drop-down menu next to the reply arrow, and choose “Block Sender.”
Then it will ask for Confirmation that Incoming emails from sender will be moved to Spam.
The “Unsubscribe” feature is also very useful, and allows you to stop receiving promotional emails without having to navigate through complicated process to visit some third party website to unsubscribe
 “Unsubscribe” is available on Gmail’s updated Android app (along with “Block Sender”), so if you’re an iOS or web user, you’re out of luck for the time being. But if you are an Android user who wants to unsubscribe, go to the promotional email, hit the “More” option (represented by the three vertical dots) in the top right corner, and choose “Unsubscribe.”

Gmail in New Avatar : Coming Soon

Google  announced a new inbox for Gmail, the company's email service used by over 400 million people worldwide. In a post on its official blog the company said that the new inbox would help users sort their emails better and focus on the communication that mattered to them.When I first used this feature it is really amazing because your email look much more cleaner when promotional mail from advertiser and networking site get clubbed in different tab.The (new) desktop, Android and iOS versions will become available within the next few weeks. If you'd like to try out the new inbox on desktop sooner, keep an eye on the gear menu and select Configure inbox when it appears in the settings options.



The new inbox, which will be rolled out to users in the coming weeks, will sort mails under five different tabs by default that is PRIMARY ,SOCIAL,PROMOTION,UPDATES,FOURUM .The primary tab, which will be visible to the user when he logs into Gmail, will be for the genuine and important communication. Email notifications sent by social media sites will automatically go under the Social tab and emails sent by e-commerce sites like eBay or Amazon will go under the Promotions tab. The two others tabs deal with confirmation emails and messages from mailing lists.This will surely minimize the user role in email filter
In other way, the new feature is similar to Labels and Filters that users can create within Gmail to sort emails.
However, the tabbed inbox automates the whole process and makes it easier, especially for less-technology savvy users, to sort and prioritize emails in a better way. By putting tabs on top of the inbox it also makes easier for users to access the emails that have skipped the main inbox.
There is lot more easy task of  selecting the tabs you want from all five to none, drag-and-drop to move messages between tabs.Google said that users who don't like the new inbox would have the option to go back to classic inbox.

How to transfer Phonebook contact from one phone to another



I came across very interesting scenario where I was suppose to transfer contact of a NOKIA phone to Blackberry/Android. First method that came in mind is just copy the contact to SIM memory and then tranfer to another phone. Here I am going to explain few method by which you can transfer your contact from one phone to another.Now a day people switching to smartphone then it become cumbersome to copy so much contact one by by so I am going to present few method which will help you to easily switch to smart phones.

1) Transfer Contact using SIM memory: In this method if you have limited contact on phone memory say like less than 200 contact then you just need to COPY/MOVE all your contact from OLD phone to SIM memory. Now you can place the SIM on new PHONE and start using.Here I want to state that you can even COPY/MOVE the content of SIM to NEW phone book.If you have more than 200 contact including SIM and PHONE book  then first  you need to MOVE the contact of existing  SIM memory and then place the SIM on new phone there you need to MOVE content from SIM to NEW PHONE.Once the SIM content is empty now place the SIM on OLD phone move the PHONE book content on to SIM and again place the SIM to new PHONE and move the content to new phone book, continue this process until your OLD phonebook get empty.

2) Transfer using Computer: The SIM card based approach is good when transferring basic phone numbers but if your phone’s address book includes long names, email addresses,then you need corresponding phone application to transfer.For instance if you have a NOKIA phone and you are shifting to BLACKBERRY or iPHONE or ANDRIOD then use NOKIA OviSuit application to copy your phone'address book to Microsoft Outlook on your desktop. Once it is copied to to your Outlook then you can use BLACKBERRY Desktop Manager software or HTC sync or iTunes in case of iPHONE or Kies for Samsung glaxy to Transfer from Outlook(PC) to your new phone's address book
Windows Mobile users, like Samsung Omnia or HTC HD2, may again use Microsoft’s Device Center (or ActiveSync for XP) to copy their phone address book to the desktop via Outlook. If you are simply switching from one Windows Phone to another, you can transfer contacts via the cloud itself using Microsoft’s My Phone service.

3) Transfer using Cloud : If you have internet enable handset  then you can copy your old phone contat to new phone over cloud without even a computer. A online seriver called Mobical which is free and works with moost of mobile phone form NOKIA,Motorola.SONY etc.All you need to setup  MOBICAL on old phone and will create back up of your phone on cloud, Now setup Mobical on the new phone using same  login detail and it will automatically download all the contact form cloud to new phone

Another intresting method on is GOOGLE SYNC, a cloud based service that works with BLACKBERRY,iPHONE,NOKIA and most other phones that are SyncML capable. Google sync keep address book in sync with Google contact.If you install google syn on two diffrent phone and use same login detial then it will automatically syn the both phone You can install Google syn on old phone and and just sync with google contact. Once you have finished sync with old phone now install google sync on new phone and use same credential to sync. All the Google contact corresponding to that login will automatically sync.
