How to delete your facebook account?

2015-06-08 / / 0 Comments

Hey there you guys
I hope you are having a good productive day
Today I decided to finally delete my Facebook account. It was deactivated for months anyway.

Why delete my Facebook account?

I don’t log on to it at all. So why keep it?
I was perplexed when I logged in and attempted to delete my account! I couldn’t find how to?!

 

I said it in my Facebook quit part 2. But I didn’t know it was so true until now!!
I have been navigating the options for over half an hour with no avail!

 How to delete your Facebook account?

After a Google search I came across this support link by Facebook
You can’t delete your account from the settings anymore. You have to click the support link above !!
It recommends you to download a copy of your Facebook data (already did) because the deletion is permanent. And it can take up to 90 days for your data to be fully deleted! 90 Days!?!?!? And the deletion can be revoked in 14 days?
Trail separation? Seriously Facebook?

Suspicious behavior

Why would they cling to the users to much? Whats in it for them?
I’d like to take this opportunity to announce that I don’t have a Facebook account anymore. And I don’t plan on opening one any time soon!

Would you delete your Facebook account? Share your experience with me 🙂 and with the awesome fans!
Have a lovely day

Atom.io v1 Atom facts + 1 year of open source!

2015-05-08 / / 0 Comments
Hey there you guys. I hope you are doing well on this fine day

Atom celebrated it’s first year as an open source on the 6th of May by releasing an info-graphic. It contains facts and numbers that are truly interesting!!

Interesting facts

I never would have guessed that most Atom users were Mac users! Or that it has been downloaded 750.000 times!! for full info click this post over here.

Great read

As I was browsing the Atom blog I came across this rather interesting announcement: That the support for deprecated API’s will end on June 1st.
(Sounds really exciting huh? No! Not really!) but the other part of the announcement is what really matters. Announcing that V1.0 milestone will be released sometime later that month (June).
Atom v1.0 will be released in June. That’s according to the official atom blog.

Future hopes

I’m hoping that update brings the removal of the file size restriction. Which has been a real drawback for Atom. I’m also expecting some under the hood improvements. I hope they work the Arabic language problem (it’s shown as scrabble). And maybe the icon. I don’t like it very much :p. Other than that I’m quite happy with the program’s features and performance (on Linux! Of course) Windows boot is almost as long as the Windows boot itself!!

Promised bug fixes 

They have published a list of bug fixes to include in the 1.0 milestone. Some of them as you might have guessed were boot time and file size restriction. The rest can be checked from here.
Let’s see if the Atom team can pull it together. I wasn’t in favor of comparing them to industry titans as I kept saying it’s in Beta. But now the play time is over!

Final words

I really wish them the best. As they put together what could impact the coding world!
What do you expect out of V1.0 of Atom? Are you excited as I am? Please let me know in the comments section below. Don’t forget to give Kudos. Share this post and help the blog grow! Have a lovely day 😀

Tasque. The to-do list app you need

2015-05-05 / / 0 Comments
Hey there you guys!
How are you today? I hope you are doing good!

Today we are looking at an awesome task list app. Tasque.
Tasque is a little to-do list that gets the job done. What I like about it is that it’s simple and minimalist. No unneeded features. Just the pure simple core of getting tasks done.

According to Wikipedia the name was partially inspired by the French village by the same spelling. “Tasque” in French is pronounced the same as the word “task” is in English

It’s available from the Ubuntu software center, or via this link as a tar archive. And it can be downloaded for Windows too! Latest stable version is 0.1.12

Reception

It has the rating of 3.5 stars on the Ubuntu software center. True shame. I believe it deserves a 5 star rating. Please up vote it.
How did you like this post? Did you find it useful? Please comment below and let me hear what you have in mind.
Have a nice day. Please give kudos. Share this post and leave a comment!

5 Reasons why I still use my Symbian phone at this day and time

2015-04-23 / / 0 Comments

Hey there. Good day to you

How are you doing today. I hope you are doing fine and well!

I still use a Symbian phone to this day. Why you ask?


Knowing that Android has the biggest market share today. And that Symbian was put to rest by Nokia in 2011 in favor of Windows Phone. That all didn’t change my mind! Here are the reasons why I still use my Symbian phone:

It looks professional!

It’s kind of a shallow reason. But the look of a Symbian phone to me is professional to my eyes٫ do you agree with me?

E72 doesn’t look 10 years old. It’s screaming business and seriousness!!

It’s stable No annoying update messages for programs or OS. Smooth riding!! If you look at it that way of course.

Battery backup

No matter what you think, the battery life of Android is really bad. Even with tweaks and all. While Symbian has lower specs and consumes less power.

It feels like a phone!

Phones now days are growing larger and larger. And becoming less like a mobile phone and more like tablet, some of them doesn’t have a single button on it! While Symbian keeps it together. Better phone reception and more focus on the phone!

More efficient!

The apps you need. And nothing more! Being far behind means lack of support! No Distractions from Snapchat or Twitter! Less means more focus. More productivity. It’s another way to look at the restrictions of the Symbian phones. So if you have one. Get it out. Shake off the dust. And use it too disconnect a little from the noise of the digital world around you! How do you like this post? Do you still own a Symbain? Let me know what kind is it?

Physical QWERTY keyboards

To me really it comes down to QWERTY input. Which I admit I’m addicted to. It makes me much more productive. There aren’t many QWERTY phones anymore. That’s why I went for an E6-00 Have a nice day. Please give kudos. G+ and share with your circles.

This is an outdated post, I sold my Symbian phone a long time ago.
