.LG launches mid-range variant of G3, G3 Beat

The mid-tier phone is powered by a 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor and just 1GB RAM.

NEW DELHI: LG has launched G3 Beat, a mid-range variant of its flagship smartphone, G3. 

The G3 Beat features the same floating Arc metallic design seen in the G3 but comes with a smaller, 5-inch HD(720x1280p) IPS display. Unlike the G3 which boasts a 2K resolution display, the G3 Beat's display is just 720p. 

The mid-tier phone is powered by a 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor and just 1GB RAM. It comes with 8GB internal storage and a microSD card slot. 

LG G3 Beat runs Android 4.4 KitKat with LG's custom UI skin. The phone comes with features such as Touch & Shoot that lets users touch anywhere on the display to focus and shoot; Gesture Shot that enables users to clench their hand in front of the screen to automatically begin a three-second countdown before a picture is snapped; Smart Keyboard which learns how users type for faster input and QuickMemo+ that lets users jot, sketch, and take notes. 

It sports an 8MP rear camera with fast Laser Auto Focus technology featured in the G3 and a 1.3MO front-facing camera. The phone has a 2,540mAh battery. 

In terms of connectivity, LG G3 Beat supports 3G, Wi-Fi b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, A-GPS/Glonass, NFC, and USB 2.0. 

"Smartphone manufacturers cannot ignore this growing segment of consumers who want the best balance of looks, features, performance and, of course, price," said Dr Jong-seok Park, president and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. "The LG G3 Beat represents our commitment to the mid-tier smartphone market that demands mature technology, proven branding, great innovation and attractive price, all in a single device." 

The LG G3 Beat will be available in South Korea starting July 18 with the global rollout starting in a few weeks. The LG G3 Beat will be known as LG G3 s in Europe and the CIS. Pricing and availability details will be announced at the time of launch in the respective regions.

Vishal Sikka is good for Indian IT: iGate CEO

Infosys CEO Vishal Sikka.

Igate has a new logo in blue, and with the 'i' now upper cased. It has also dropped the tagline 'iToPS for business outcomes'. iToPs, or integrated technology and operations, represented Igate's focus on delivering business outcomes rather than simply providing people and resources to build and maintain applications -and on which it had spent a lot of marketing dollars to position it as a differentiator among IT companies. In an interview to TOI, CEO Ashok Vemuri spoke about these changes and on what he thinks of his former employer, Infosys, appointing Vishal Sikka as CEO. 

You appear to be consciously defocusing on the outcomes-based model. 

We are not defocusing from iToPS. But when you put out a value proposition and say we are going to give you business outcomes, the first thing you need to understand is the business against which you're pro mising an outcome. To understand business, your organizational structure should be such that you understand the industry in which they operate. Without that, if you go to the bottom of the story and say we will do business outcomes and nothing else, you will get laughed out. Now, with our new verticalized structures, we will be able to build those specific solutions that can address clients' business problems. 

Brokerage firm Jefferies has put a buy on the stock with a target price of $43 and a few other brokerages have put a buy rating. What's building the momentum in the stock? 

I think there is a higher degree of appreciation for our reconstructed brand and story. 

We are making investments and we have become confident about ourselves and our clients are reciprocating the confidence. They like the fact that here is a company that's not pretending to be every thing. We have defined niches for ourselves, and investing and taking solutions to our clients. We are creating an ecosystem to build a world class company. The number of employees recommending other people to join the company has gone up by 50% in the last two quarters. 

What do you think of Vishal Sikka at Infosys? 

It's a great move for the company . He's a well-established leader with a great reputation in the market place. It's good for the industry and an iconic company like Infosys needs to have a great leader to bring stability which is good for other members of the community . I wish him all the very best. 

What do you have to say about a product person in a services company? 

That's neither here not there. 

In Igate, we are focused on building productized services. We don't have a desire to be a product company, but we will have more platforms.

Microsoft set to cut 6,000 jobs

Microsoft is set to cut more than 6,000 jobs in an announcement expected early Thursday.

SEATTLE: Microsoft is set to cut more than 6,000 jobs in an announcement expected early Thursday, according to sources familiar with the matter, as it trims its newly acquired Nokia phone business and reshapes itself as a cloud-computing and mobile-friendly software company. 

What could be the deepest job cuts in the company's 39-year history come five months into the tenure of chief executive officer Satya Nadella, who outlined plans for a "leaner" business in a public memo to employees last week. 

Many of the cuts are expected to come from the Nokia unit, which Microsoft acquired in April for $7.2 billion, pushing up Microsoft's headcount by a quarter to 127,000. Microsoft said when it struck the deal to buy the Finnish phone maker that it would cut $600 million per year in costs within 18 months of closing the acquisition. 

Microsoft is also expected to trim staffing at its Xbox game and entertainment unit, which Nadella last week praised but stopped short of describing as a "core" business. 

Nadella's cuts are set to be the biggest at the Redmond, Washington-based company since his predecessor Steve Ballmer axed 5,800, or about 6% of headcount at that time, in the depths of recession in early 2009. 

The new CEO's move is designed to help Microsoft shift from being a primarily software-focused company to one that sells online services, apps and devices that it hopes will make people and businesses more productive. Nadella needs to make Microsoft a stronger competitor to Google Inc and Apple Inc, which have dominated the new era of mobile-centric computing. 

Marking this change of emphasis, Nadella last week rebranded Microsoft as "the productivity and platform company for the mobile-first and cloud-first world." 

Microsoft is not alone among the pioneers of the personal computer revolution that are now slimming down as they adapt to the Web-focused world. 

PC-maker Hewlett-Packard is in the midst of a radical three-to-five-year plan that will lop up to 50,000 of its 250,000 staff. 

International Business Machines is undergoing a "workforce rebalancing," which analysts say could mean 13,000, or about 3 percent of its staff, being laid off or transferred to new owners as units are sold. 

Chip maker Intel and network equipment maker Cisco Systems both said in the past year they are cutting around 5% of their staff

Indian CEOs spend more time in addressing regulatory issues’

Stating that Indian CEOs spend more time in addressing regulatory issues than their global peers, Tata Steel India Managing Director T V Narendran, however, defended regulators, saying industry has invited this scrutiny to some extent.

“CEOs in India spend far more time addressing regulatory issues than CEOs in other countries do. To be fair to the regulators, the industry has invited this scrutiny to an extent,” Narendran has said in an interview to Tata Review, an inhouse magazine. “There is a need for the industry to look at responsible growth and be good corporate citizens,” he added.

Narendran, however, also pitched for simplification of regulations to support to attract investors (in steel sector) and tight enough to ensure communities are not exploited. Stating that in the next two years, the demand for steel in India is expected to grow to about 180-200 million tonnes (MT), capacity of an additional 100 MT has to be built, for which we need to spend approximately US $ 100 billion.

“Very few countries in the world have both the raw material and the market. India has both. But if we don’t leverage this opportunity to translate the richness below the ground to opportunities above the ground, then we will be missing out,” he said.

Narendran said Tata Steel intends to add 1 MT capacity of every year in India and plans to raise the capacity in South East Asia by 2 MT to 6 MT. Tata Steel has recently increased annual capacity of its Jamshedpur plant in India to 10 MT. The first phase of the Kalinganagar plant in Odisha with 3 mtpa capacity would go on stream in the last quarter of the year.

“In South East Asia, we will continue to go downstream, setting up facilities in Indonesia, Malaysia and Hong Kong. We are currently at 4 MT of sales in this region and I would like to take that to 5 to 6 MT,” he said.

As countries such as Vietnam, the Philippines and Myanmar are still at an early stage of steel consumption, Narendran said, “We have huge opportunities to tap. The key is in going about it in an integrated fashion.”

New software testing skills you must have

In today’s changing IT environment, a software tester has become more of a tools-smith, who fine-tunes as things move along 

There is no denying that the role of the software tester is evolving today. The number of testing resources required to address any given challenge has decreased primarily due to two key factors:

• Agile Development techniques that integrate test automation into the development process

• Mature Test Automation tools that simplify test creation, automation and execution

“However in all cases the need for testing in itself has not decreased,’’ says Mrinalini Chandok, HR head IT & Telecom, Winfo Technologies. “It is just that the responsibility has shifted to either development (like in the case of test-driven development) or functional test automation. Thus as separate automation implementation programs the software tester has become more a test designer, test engineer, test manager or a tools-smith, who fine-tunes as things move along.’’

The mind-set that testing is a job meant for those with lesser analytical and problem-solving skills, is fast changing across the industry.

“How effective is the testing in an IT organisation has major implications on the market success of a product or application. The accuracy with which the tester can predict and emulate end-user behavior provides critical developmental feedback which act as an early warning indicator in the developmental cycle even today,” says Amrinder Singh, HR consultant and lead consultant and adviser for several IT companies.

So what are some of the essential skills that the software tester needs to have in today’s changing IT environment?

• Ability to envisage abstract ideas

“An analytical and logical thinking mind alone is not enough,” says Chandok. “What we look for today is the candidates’ ability to envisage real-time business situations through mental mapping; and the ability to plan forward.’’

• A “glocal” approach to solutions

System design involves multiple stakeholders thus the ability to deal effectively with business situations marked by complexities and innumerable interactions with third-party systems is essential.

“It is the tester’s responsibility to identify how the system interacts with other constituents within the system as well as with the external factors. To be able to isolate the minute units of the application under test and validate, keeping in mind the behavior of the system as a whole is thus key,’’ says Singh. “This is the global + local, the `glocal approach’ that is a must.’’

• Ability to apply fundamental knowledge to  contextual information and expert insight

“Even a tester with a couple of years experience is expected to be able to use fundamental communication, mathematical and software application skills for practical situations and address the problem,” says Singh.

Thus a thorough plan needs to be in place before work begins with a test strategy, levels of testing, pass/fail criteria and the schedule.

“Testers today need to be risk takers with a willingness to fail,” says Singh. “Judgment calls are made based on past experience and individual & team understanding. If they consistently adopt a safe path, the chances of up-skilling actually reduce.”

Twitter testing ‘Share to WhatsApp’ feature on Android app

Twitter may soon roll out a ‘Share to WhatsApp’ button in the upcoming version of its Android app. The button will make it easier for users to share their tweets on WhatsApp.

• Use WhatsApp on Android? Your chats are not so secure

NEW DELHI: Twitter may soon roll out a 'Share to WhatsApp' button in the upcoming version of its Android app. The button, as the name suggests, will make it easier for users to share their tweets on the mobile messaging app.

The feature is currently under testing, as revealed by posts of some users on the microblogging website.

Presently, users can share tweets on WhatsApp via Share button. Having a button especially for WhatsApp will not only make the task effortless for users but also prompt them to share their tweets with WhatsApp contacts.

As the screenshots show, users will be able to send a message along with the tweet while sending it to a WhatsApp contact.


With this move, Twitter will follow in the footsteps of social sharing website Po.st, which added the 'Share to WhatsApp button' last week.
The new share button may help Twitter reach out to more people, especially in a country like India, where WhatsApp is more popular than Twitter. At present, over 50 million Indians use WhatsApp.

Twitter also launched a new profile design last month. The microblogging website is also testing a feature that will give users the ability to see real-time notifications pop-up on their screens.

Amazon's 3D smartphone: Challenges ahead

Amazon's phone comes at a time when the nation's largest e-commerce company is at a crossroads.

NEW YORK: Amazon, a company of seemingly boundless ambition, appears to be venturing into yet another market: Smartphones. 

The corporate juggernaut that started out with books and soon moved into music, video, cloud computing and Kindle e-readers is hosting a launch event in Seattle, and media reports indicate the product will be an Amazon phone — perhaps one with multiple cameras that can produce 3D photos. 

Amazon declined to comment, but analysts said the goal is almost certainly a device designed to get customers to buy more things from Amazon. It might include an Amazon shopping app or other features tied in tightly to the products the company sells. 

"It's Amazon. That says to me the core value proposition is going to be about shopping," said Ramon Llamas of the research firm International Data Corp. 

Amazon's phone comes at a time when the nation's largest e-commerce company is at a crossroads. 

Its stock, which surged for years despite narrow profits, has dropped 18% in 2014 to about $326, in part because investors have been losing patience with its habit of plowing revenue back into new ventures. 

Analysts said the move into smartphones is a bit of a head-scratcher, since the company is a late entrant into the highly competitive market. 

For all its success with other products, Amazon will be hard-pressed to compete with Samsung and Apple, the No. 1 and 2 mobile phone companies in the world. 

Globally, Samsung led mobile phone manufacturers with 31% of the 288 million units shipped in the first quarter, followed by Apple at 15%. In the US, Apple dominates with more than 37% of the 34 million units shipped, with Samsung at close to 29%. 

Some analysts have speculated that the 3D feature might tie into an Amazon shopping app. Shoppers might be able to use the phone to take a 3D picture of a product in a store, then search for the object on Amazon and buy it online. 

Analysts said the phone could also come with a data plan that could let owners use Amazon services without using up any data. 

"Anything that generates more repeat orders and more frequent purchases is probably part of what they intend to do with this," said RW Baird analyst Colin Sebastian. 

To compete, Amazon needs more than an expected 3D viewing feature, which has been tried before by smartphone makers like HTC and LG, Llamas said. 

Competing on price won't help if it leaves people with the impression that the device is cheaply built, and getting customers to buy a phone without being about to touch it first could prove difficult, he said. 

"If they sell it only online, as Amazon sells many of its goods and products, that could be a challenge," Llamas said. 

Here's a look at the impact Amazon has had in music, video and other markets it has entered: 

Books
Amazon.com Inc started as an online bookstore in 1995 in CEO Jeff Bezos' garage in Bellevue, Washington. As more and more bookstores have closed, Amazon is now believed to be the nation's largest bookseller, with an estimated 30% of a total book market that PricewaterhouseCoopers estimates hit $34.9 billion last year, and 60% of an e-book market that PwC pegged at $7.9 billion. 

Mike Shatzkin, founder and CEO of book industry consultancy The Idea Logical Co, said book publishers view Amazon with "a mixture of dependence and fear." 

"They can't live without Amazon's sales, and they can't live with Amazon's market power," he said. 

Music
Amazon is a major player in music. It has sold compact discs by mail since 1998 and digital downloads since 2007. 

Russ Crupnick, managing partner of consulting company MusicWatch, pegs Amazon's share at 18% of the $2.8 billion digital download market in the US last year and 23% of the $2.1 billion market for CDs. In comparison, Apple's iTunes commands about 67% of digital downloads and doesn't sell CDs. Amazon is the only competitor to Apple of any real size. 

Amazon last week launched a music streaming service that makes more than 1 million tracks available to members of its $99-a-year Amazon Prime subscription plan. 

Tablets
Amazon took over the e-book market soon after its first Kindle was launched in 2007. It took a big step by introducing its full-color Kindle Fire tablet in 2011, with a price starting at $199 and a screen just 7 inches diagonally. 

"At the time, none of the other vendors had something similar," said Jitesh Ubrani, an IDC analyst. 

But since then, others have matched the size and price, especially Samsung, which has made big gains. Amazon's share of global shipments has slid from more than 7% in 2012 to 2% in the first quarter of the year. 

"Other vendors have cheaper, better products," Ubrani said. 

Movies and TV shows
Amazon is a large retailer of DVDs and Blu-ray discs and also offers online rentals and purchases of digital video products. 

Amazon has 15% of the $1.8 billion US market for movie and TV show rentals and downloads, trailing Apple's 58%, according to Dan Cryan, an analyst with market research firm IHS. 

As for subscription video streaming, Cryan estimates Amazon accounted for 15% of the 43.6 million active US subscribers of streaming video plans through its Prime Instant Video service. Netflix accounted for 73% of active streaming subscribers, while Hulu Plus had 12%. 

Cloud services
Amazon essentially created the marketplace for what is known as cloud infrastructure as a service in 2006 with Amazon Web Services. That is where it allows its servers to be used by third parties to host the data and applications they need to run mobile apps, websites and other services. 

As the overwhelming market leader, Amazon maintains five times the computing capacity of the next 14 service providers combined, according to Gartner analyst Lydia Leong. Amazon is aggressive with price cuts and innovation, which will probably keep competitors like Microsoft from catching up for years, Leong said. 

Overall retail
Amazon sold $40.8 billion worth of goods in North America last year. That's 17% of all e-commerce, according to Anne Zybowski, vice president of retail insights at research firm Kantar Retail.

Facebook launches Snapchat-rival Slingshot

The app is designed to appeal to fans of Snapchat and other messaging apps that let people send self-destructing messages to friends.

NEW YORK: Facebook is taking another stab at ephemeral mobile messaging with an app called Slingshot.

The app is designed to appeal to fans of Snapchat and other messaging apps that let people send self-destructing messages to friends.

Slingshot draws inevitable comparisons to Snapchat. Facebook even tried to buy Snapchat's maker - for $3 billion, according to published reports. But there are some key differences between the two.

Availability
Facebook began making Slingshot available Tuesday to US users, though the company accidentally released it last week in Apple's App Store, giving some vigilant Facebook watchers an early glimpse before the app was removed from the store. Slingshot works with both Apple and Android devices. A Facebook account isn't required.

How it works
After downloading, you can sign up either with a Facebook account or your mobile phone number. You add contacts based on your Facebook friends and phone contacts.

Opening the app takes you to its camera, which has a 'Shoot' button for taking a snapshot and a 'Selfie' button for, you guessed it, a selfie. After taking a photo, you can type a message of up to 140 characters on it or draw a picture. You can then send it to some or all of your Slingshot contacts.

Unlike Snapchat
On Snapchat, people can see a photo sent to them by tapping on it and holding their finger down until it disappears, always within a few seconds. On Slingshot, you can see a message only if you send one back. Until you do, you'll only see a pixilated preview of what's in store. Facebook product designer Joey Flynn says this gives it a "reciprocal, kind of community feel."

Unlike with Snapchat, there is no time limit on when a message disappears. Once you are done looking at it, you can flick it off to the side and it self-destructs, much the same way you'd reject a potential mate on Tinder's dating app.

Slingshot also allows reaction shots. This splits your screen in half and lets you snap a photo to return to the sender. In this case, the recipient won't have to send back a message to view your response.

Second take
Facebook had a previous Snapchat-like app called Poke, but it never caught on.

Slingshot is the second app to come out of Facebook's Creative Labs, an internal project designed to develop separate apps in a startup-like environment.

The first app from the lab was Paper, a social news reader that came out in February. The effort comes as Facebook seeks to broaden its reach beyond its 1.28 billion users by splintering off some of its functions to separate apps — and creating stand-alone apps for entirely new features and audiences.

Ten people have been working on Slingshot since January. It grew out of a December hackathon at Facebook where people were trying to figure out out "new ways of sharing," Flynn says.

Flynn says he thought of his two brothers, both of whom are "non-technical, they don't live in San Francisco." The three communicate on iMessage, the iPhone's built in-messaging system, and Flynn would often send photos and messages to his brothers to no response other than a 'Seen' receipt. Slingshot, he says, is intended to make sharing stuff more reciprocal.

The prospects

Even Facebook acknowledges that its Creative Labs apps are starting small and might not reach an audience that Facebook itself reaches. The idea is to offer something for everyone.

But with a plethora of social sharing apps out there, Slingshot faces fiery competition — not just from Snapchat but also Instagram, which Facebook owns, and WhatsApp, which Facebook is buying for $19 billion. The challenge will be to show how it's different.

Binny and other freakish spells

© Getty Images

Sunil Joshi's 5/6 remains the best bowling against South Africa by any bowler in ODIs.

Stuart Binny produced a freakish spell against Bangladesh at Mirpur, where his match figures of 4.4-2-4-6 broke the 21-year old record of the best bowling figures by an Indian in ODIs. Following this sensational effort, gocricket.com looks at other freakish spells that have blown oppositions away in ODIs. Note: The criteria for the bowler in this case will be five wickets or more but less than or equal to 15 runs.

Sunil Joshi (10-6-6-5) v South Africa, Nairobi 1999

South Africa were completely confounded by Sunil Joshi's guile as he ripped through the middle order with his slow left-arm orthodox. His haul of 5/6 still remains the best bowling figures against South Africa by any bowler in ODIs as India notched up a comfortable eight-wicket win.

Courtney Walsh (4.3-3-1-5) v Sri Lanka, Sharjah 1986

It was a devastating display of bowling from Courtney Walsh as Sri Lanka were crushed in Sharjah. Chasing 249 for victory, Walsh ripped through the Sri Lankan lower-middle order as they collapsed from 45/2 to 55 all out, their lowest ever score in ODIs at that time. Out of Walsh's five wickets, four were bowled.

Shahid Afridi (9-3-12-7) v West Indies, Providence 2013

Shahid Afridi was known to be a maverick with the bat. However, on a warm July day in Providence, he put in a bowling display for the ages. He confounded the West Indies batsmen with his straight deliveries and legbreaks as he destroyed them with a haul of 7/12. West Indies were bowled out for 98, their lowest total at home in ODIs and this was the second best haul by a bowler in ODI history.

Ajantha Mendis (8-1-13-6) v India, Karachi 2008

In the final of the Asia Cup, India were confronted with a mystery spinner. They found that they would soon by mystified by Ajantha Mendis. For the first time in the modern era, the world saw the advent of the carrom ball as India were demolished by his accuracy. All Indian batsmen were confounded by his guile as his haul helped Sri Lanka retain the Asia Cup.

Glenn McGrath (7-4-15-7) v Namibia, Potchefstroom 2003

The Metronomic Master unfurled his brilliance and Namibia had no chance as they folded up for 45, which at that time was the second lowest total in World Cups. The 256-run margin of defeat was the highest ever in ODIs at that time.

Anil Kumble (6.1-2-12-6) v West Indies, Kolkata 1993

Eden Gardens witnessed a special demolition by Anil Kumble as he ripped through West Indies' batting to finish with 6/12, the best haul by an Indian bowler at that time. This gave India Hero Cup trophy as they won by 102 runs.

Imran Khan (10-2-14-6) v India, Sharjah 1985

It was a sensational display by Pakistan skipper Imran Khan as India folded up for 125. To his dismay though, the Indian bowlers came back strongly and dismissed Pakistan for 87. However, this haul remained Imran's best in ODIs.

SamMobile has released Samsung Galaxy S5 mini photos that show it will have the same dotted pattern on the back as its older sibling, but feature a smaller screen.

NEW DELHI: With Samsung Galaxy S5, S5 Active and K Zoom already launched, the tech community is now waiting for the launch of the Galaxy S5 mini. The smaller version of flagship model Galaxy S5 has been leaked several times earlier, but the latest leak gives a photo and detailed specifications of the smartphone.
