Popularity of the products powered by Google makes Windows free

Day by day, Microsoft's operating system becomes free. Android's dominance forced Microsoft to make Windows Phone free. Chromebooks' popularity forced Microsoft to remove the Windows license for low-cost computers.

Windows is now a burden for hardware manufacturers: its license is a significant part of the computer's price and Windows 8 doesn't drive sales. Desktop operating systems are becoming less important, computers use less power and offload processing to the cloud.

A desktop operating system built around a browser and a mobile operating system built around openness made Google the obvious choice for Microsoft's OEMs. Two timely solutions that allowed companies like Samsung, Asus, HTC to come up with products people wanted to buy. Hardware companies usually don't write great software, so Google wrote some of the software and freed them from Windows. And now the popularity of the Windows-free products powered by Google made Windows free.

BSNL.CO.IN website hacked by Anonymous India group

State-owned telecom firm BSNL's Website was hacked on Thursday by a group that demanded withdrawal of section 66 A of the IT Act.

The Website 'www.bsnl.co.in' was quickly restored.

The group Anonymous India said that it hacked the Website in support of activists Aseem Trivedi and Alok Dixit, who are on a hunger strike to protest Section 66A of the IT Act.

Alok Dixit

"Our website has been hacked and our people are working on it," BSNL Chairman and Managing Director R K Upadhyay told PTI.

The site has since been restored.

The Twitter account of Anonymous India (@opindia_revenge) said, "BSNL Websites hacked, passwords and database leaked http://pastebin.com/wjtiyvx4 Anonymous India demands withdrawal of Sec 66A of IT Act."

Aseem Trivedi

Trivedi and Dixit are on a hunger strike for the last six days in protest against Sec 66A of IT Act.

Facing public protests on the recent controversial arrest of some persons for their Facebook posts using the section 66A of IT Act, Government last month came out with guidelines where a police officer no less than the rank of DCP can sanction prosecution.

The guidelines were being issued after controversial arrests by Mumbai police under Section 66 (A) of Information Technology (IT) Act that deals with spreading hatred through electronic messages.

Onetastic–Multi feature addon for Microsoft OneNote

 

I usually save PDF files in Microsoft OneNote using ‘Send to OneNote’ option. But I could not edit the image saved in OneNote. Some times the wider files get saved as rotated and cannot be easily readable.  

MS OneNote users wonder, why there is no way to crop or edit a picture in MS OneNote?’ Microsoft says it is neither a filly-blown word processor nor a  picture editor.

After a long time search I have got a fantastic solution in the way of ‘Onetastic for Microsoft OneNote’.  This is the addon for OneNote with more features.

Image Crop 

Onetastic supports a new context menu item for images: Crop. Just right click on an image and select Crop at the bottom and you will be able to cut it the way you want.

 

Custom Styles

Let's talk about styles in OneNote. There is a styles gallery which has a fixed number of styles and you can customize them.

 

Favorites/Pin to Desktop

This was a button on the ribbon that would create a link to the current page on desktop. Favorites is an extension of that. The button is now what we call a split button, which has a top part to do the one-click action and the bottom part which is a menu.

The menu allows you to select where to pin the shortcut: Desktop, as before, Favorites menu, or some other location. You can switch between them and the button will reflect this:

 

Rotate/Flip Printouts

When you print a document to OneNote, sometimes one of the pages needs to be in landscape orientation or you may have forgotten to select "Landscape" for the whole document when to printing. OneNote has a rotate/flip option on images but the same feature was left out for printout pages. Install Onetastic and you can now right click any printout page and rotate or flip it.

 

Cleanup Printouts

When you delete a page of a multi-page printout, OneNote will display a message at the top of the page that reads: "One or more pages of the Printout below are hidden. To remove this message, delete all pages of the Printout below". This message tries to tell you that the file that backs the printout still contains the pages you deleted, so if you were to share the OneNote page with someone else, they can still extract those pages. However many users including me found the message confusing and there is no way to get rid of it even if you fully understand what it is trying to say. Onetastic provides a button on the ribbon to clean up the backing document for the printout by removing the pages you deleted from the file and remove the message.
