Lenovo Buys Motorola from Google

Motorola Mobility, the Libertyville-based cellphone-maker with a longtime Chicago pedigree, will have Chinese ownership under a deal announced Wednesday. 

    Google, which owns Motorola Mobility, said it will sell the smartphone business for $2.91 billion to Lenovo, giving one of China's most prominent technology companies a broader foothold in the United States. 

    Motorola -- which invented the commercial cellular phone -- was the industry leader and innovator as recently as a decade ago, but over time the company fell behind more nimble competitors such as Apple. The sale to Lenovo is another reminder of that lost promise, just as it reflects the rising ambition and wealth of Chinese corporations. 

    Lenovo gained notice in 2005, when it bought IBM's PC business, and it has continued to grow as a global company. Last week Lenovo said it would buy IBM's low-end server business for $2.3 billion. 

    In the Motorola deal, Lenovo will get the Motorola brand and products, including the Moto X and Moto G, and it will gain access to the company's patents. Lenovo, which ranks fifth globally in handset sales, sees the Motorola deal as a way to make quick headway into U.S. and Latin American markets. 

    Lenovo executives said the company would retain Motorola Mobility's management team, led by Chief Executive Dennis Woodside. Plans to move the smartphone company's headquarters to the Merchandise Mart next month will proceed, they said, adding there are no plans for layoffs. 

    The headquarters employs more than 2,000 people, a company spokesman said. 

    "We are buying this business, we are buying this team because we believe they are a treasure," Yang Yuanqing, Lenovo's chairman and CEO, said in a conference call. 

    Peter Hortensius, Lenovo's chief technology officer, said in an interview with the Tribune that future staffing levels will depend on how the business performs. 

    "We acquired it to grow it, and make it bigger and stronger," he said. 

    The Lenovo deal, if completed, would be the latest in a string of high-profile transactions in which Chinese firms buy global brands. In the U.S., Shuanghui International bought pork producer Smithfield Foods last year. 

    "The reality is that as China becomes wealthier and companies become wealthier, they will look to investment opportunities around world, including the U.S.," said Ivo Daalder, president of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. 

    Such foreign direct investment "means more money coming into the city," he said. 
    The Lenovo deal is subject to approval by U.S. and Chinese authorities. 

    Chinese companies faced the most scrutiny over their U.S. acquisitions in 2012, according to a report issued in December by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. Analysts say political issues could cloud the deal, especially with Lenovo trying to seal the IBM deal at the same time. 

    Motorola has a storied place in Chicago business history. 

    The company, founded as Galvin Manufacturing in 1928, pioneered the car radio and walkie-talkies. 

    After success with early pagers and radio phones, it introduced the cellular phone in 1984 and became an industry leader. 

    Motorola's 2004 Razr mobile phones were revolutionary in that they weren't just functional but a fashion accessory, an idea others -- notably Apple -- would run with, and eat into the company's once-substantial market share. The company never regained its footing. 
    Motorola's rich history was part of the appeal for Lenovo. 

    "They not only invented the first mobile phone, but they created household products like the Razr," Yang said, noting his first cellphone was a Motorola. 

    Google will retain most of Motorola Mobility's patent portfolio, but Lenovo will receive a license to the portfolio and other intellectual property. It also it will receive more than 2,000 patent assets and the Motorola Mobility brand and trademark portfolio. 

    When Google bought Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion in 2012, about a year after Motorola split into two companies, the main attraction appeared to be Motorola's patents. 

    They would help protect the company from disputes with other companies. Google received $3 billion in cash and subsequently sold one business unit and multiple factories, so it's difficult to analyze whether it's taking much of a loss on the Lenovo sale. 

    The deal with Lenovo appears to resolve another issue for Google: the complication of owning a handset-maker while also doing deals to license Google's Android operating system to other phone-makers, such as Samsung. 

    In a blog post Wednesday, Google CEO Larry Page highlighted the strategic choice in selling the Motorola handset business. 

    "The smartphone market is super competitive, and to thrive it helps to be all-in when it comes to making mobile devices," Page wrote. "This move will enable Google to devote our energy to driving innovation across the Android ecosystem, for the benefit of smartphone users everywhere." 

    Motorola Mobility wasn't making money; it had operating losses of $248 million in the third quarter. 

    Globally, five companies dominate the business these days -- two of which are Chinese. The top, according to industry research firm International Data Corp., are Samsung, Apple, Huawei Technologies, LG Electronics and Lenovo. 

    In the United States, the Chinese companies continue to grapple with low brand awareness, perceptions of inferior quality and even security concerns. 

    "Using Motorola, just as Lenovo used the IBM ThinkPad brand, to gain quick credibility and access to desirable markets and build critical mass makes a lot of sense," said Forrester Research analyst Frank Gillett.

Facebook revenue surges 63% on strong ad sales

Social networking giant Facebook has reported profits of $523m (£316m) and a 63% increase in revenue for the fourth quarter, beating expectations.
The boost in revenue was mostly due to stronger mobile advertising sales, a priority of boss Mark Zuckerberg.
Advertising revenue increased 76% from the same period last year, with more than half of that coming from mobile.
Overall, Facebook said it had 757 million daily global users as of December 2013.
For the full year for 2013, Facebook reported profits of $1.5bn and said its daily active users grew by 22%.
"It was a great end to the year for Facebook," said Mr Zuckerberg in a statement.
"We're looking forward to our next decade and to helping connect the rest of the world."
Facebook shares soared more than 10% in after-hours trading on the news.
Growing share
Facebook turns 10 years old next Tuesday, completing a remarkable transformation from a project started in Mr Zuckerberg's student room to a global empire with more than 1.23 billion monthly users.
Two years ago, Facebook had no revenue from mobile advertising sales.
Since then, the firm has made a concerted push to spruce up its mobile app in order to woo users and advertisers.
"2013 was the year we turned our business into a mobile business," said Mr Zuckerberg in a call to discuss the earnings.
According to research firm eMarketer, Facebook had a 16% share of all mobile advertising dollars spent in the US this year, up from 9% in 2013.
This comes after Facebook surpassed Yahoo as the number two digital advertising seller in the US.
Globally, Google is still the dominant player, with a 32.4% share of the $117.6bn spent on digital advertising in 2013.
Picture perfect?
On the call to discuss earnings, Facebook executives also highlighted two big Facebook apps: Messenger and Instagram, which Facebook bought for $1bn.
Chief financial officer David Ebersman said Instagram doubled its user base, but did not name specific figures.
Mr Ebersman declined to discuss the advertising load on Instagram, saying: "We're just really early with Instagram... We're going to move slowly because we think that's the right thing to do."
Mr Zuckerberg also highlighted the growth of Facebook's Messenger, saying the number of users was up 70%. He did not break down usage by region.

Tata Motors' managing director Karl Slym has died in Thailand where he was attending a board meeting.

India-based Tata said in a statement it "deeply regrets to announce the untimely and tragic" death of Mr Slym.
The circumstances of his death were not immediately apparent, although several media reports said he may have had a fall at a hotel in the Thai capital.
Aged 51, the British-born executive ran all Tata Motors' operations except Jaguar Land Rover in the UK.
Mr Slym had worked for Toyota in the UK, and then General Motors in India and China. He had been managing director of Tata Motors, part of the giant Tata Group, since October 2012.
Although Jaguar Land Rover has been hugely successful, the rest of Tata Motors has struggled.

In his tribute, Tata chairman Cyrus P Mistry described Mr Slym as "a valued colleague who was providing strong leadership at a challenging time for the Indian auto industry".
"In this hour of grief, our thoughts are with Karl's wife and family," Mr Mistry said.

Some CNN social media accounts hacked


 Some of CNN's social media accounts and blogs were compromised Thursday.
The affected accounts included CNN's main Facebook account, CNN Politics' Facebook account and the Twitter pages for CNN and CNN's Security Clearance. Blogs for Political Ticker, The Lead, Security Clearance, The Situation Room and Crossfire were also hacked.
The posts were deleted within minutes and the accounts have since been secured.
Some of the posts claimed that the Syrian Electronic Army, a group of pro-Syrian regime hackers that has aggressively targeted major news organizations and activists, was responsible.
"Syrian Electronic Army Was Here...Stop lying... All your reports are fake!" one of the posts on CNN's Twitter account said.
Another post Thursday night on a Twitter account purportedly tied to the group said it was retaliating for "viciously lying reporting aimed at prolonging the suffering in Syria."
Last year the Syrian Electronic Army claimed credit for a 20-hour-long outage of the New York Times website.
The group also claims to have hacked other major American and British news organizations, as well as Columbia University and rights group Human Rights Watch.

How to Display Recent Posts in Blogger

Displaying Recent posts in your sidebar often help your users to quickly take a look at the content that is more new and fresh. It also gives them a basic idea that what kind of content is published on a certain blog. If the most recent posts are somewhat linked to each other, then it might engage your visitors for a bit longer.  However, in some designing methods people want to display recent posts differently according to their design. In this article, we will show you How to Display Recent posts in Blogger.

Display Recent Post With A Summery in Blogger?

Some people have different approaches of showing recent posts in their blogs. They want them to be with a title and a short description, so that users can get some idea about the topic. There're multiple ways of doing that, but we have listed below the most simplest and work friendly method.

The first thing you need to do is to go to Blogger.com >> Layout >> Add a Gadget >> Add HTML/JavaScript. Now paste the following code in the HTML Text Area. Remember: Don’t forget to replace mybloggerlab.com with your personal domain name.

<link href="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137869302/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
 <script src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137869302/json.js"></script>

  <script type='text/javascript'>
var numposts = 3;
var showpostthumbnails =  false;
var displaymore = false;
var displayseparator = true;
var showcommentnum = false;
var showpostdate = false;
var showpostsummary = true;
var numchars = 100;</script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mybloggerlab.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=published&alt=json-in-script&callback=labelthumbs"></script> 

You may change the character limit by replacing (100) with any other according to your needs. Once everything is done, save the gadget.

Displaying Recent Posts in a List Format in Blogger?

Some people want things to be as modest as possible, this is the reason why they want to show recent posts with just post titles in a list format.

<link href="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137869302/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137869302/json.js"></script>

 <script type='text/javascript'>
var numposts = 3;
var showpostthumbnails = false;
var displaymore = false;
var displayseparator = true;
var showcommentnum = false;
var showpostdate = false;
var showpostsummary = false;
var numchars = 100;</script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mybloggerlab.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=published&alt=json-in-script&callback=labelthumbs"></script> 

You may change the number of posts to be shown in the gadget by replacing 10 with any other number. You can simply paste the code in the HTML/JavaScript gadget's area or you can also use them in your post pages. Once everything is done, save the gadget.

Displaying Recent Posts with Thumbnails in Blogger?

Sometimes people want things to be perfect. As we all know picture speaks a lot than words, so adding a small thumbnail to recent posts might help in grabbing the attention of your visitors. You can customize the thumbnail size through a simple CSS, but it might get distorted as it is originally small.

To add this in your blog, Blogger.com >> Layout >> Add a Gadget >> Add HTML/JavaScript. Now paste the following code in the HTML Text Area. Once everything is done, after customizing save the gadget.

<link href="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137869302/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
 <script src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137869302/json.js"></script>

  <script type='text/javascript'>
var numposts = 3;
var showpostthumbnails = true;
var displaymore = false;
var displayseparator = true;
var showcommentnum = false;
var showpostdate = false;
var showpostsummary = true;
var numchars = 100;</script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mybloggerlab.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=published&alt=json-in-script&callback=labelthumbs"></script>

How To Make WhatsApp Free For Lifetime



As every knows Whatsapp is Fastest Growing Messenger for Mobile Phones. Whatsapp is highly downloadable mobile application. Every person who use internet on mobile always use Whatsapp, instead of doing sms from number to everyone because sms needs to activate costly packs which offers limited messages but Whatsapp allow to send unlimited messages with better interface and inbuilt number of amazing features like sharing images, videos, audios or other files as you want.
But the Major Problem with Whatsapp is that, its free subscription is just for one year. Means due to program policies of Whatsapp you can use it free for 1 year for every new installation. Then after completing 1st year you have to pay $0.99 to activate Whatsapp for next year. So here i will try to introduce amazing trick about making Whatsapp free after completing 1 year.

Note:- I know $0.99 is little bit amount and everyone can easily afford. So if your are not interested to due to do this then Just suggest you read it for fun because our aim is to increase your knowledge only.

Steps To Make Whatsapp For Lifetime.


  • If you have any android or other mobile where you already install Whatsapp then i suggest you to delete you account and Whatsapp both from your device. 
  • Now you need iOS device i recommend you to use iPhone for this. If you already then follow steps. Otherwise Borrow it from you friend or any other person.
  • Make sure that they don't have already installed Whatsapp. If they don't havingWhatsapp already then you need to download it from iTunes search  like Whatsapp for free because iTunes Offers sometime free apps.
  • Now Install Whatsapp in iOS. After the installation, Activate your mobile number and verify it.
  • After the verification, now use your Activated number on your own device and Check your Service time it is extended to Lifetime.
  
I hope this trick is working for everyone.Sometimes If you are lucky then you got lifetime service. But sometimes Whatsapp service period only extend for 1 year or may be for 10 years.  But we does not guaranty about it sometime it may not work depend upon you luck and right time. Then i request you to pay little bit amount of $0.99 via PayPal or any other available method.
