Cracking the World's hardest Sudoku

I heard about the claim that this one is the hardest sudoku puzzle made to date. Obviously I wanted to solve it. But since I am pressed with time this moment, I solved it using Google's Goggles. :)

@Linkedin App for iPad: Review

TL;DR: I liked it, try!

Here is a longer version:
Well, linkedin has emerged as a useful tool in academic circle. It not only helps one to connect and keep in touch, but also get new connections.

They have recently introduced an iPad app, iPhone app was already there. My first feeling about this app is that it is absolutely good app.

Number one: the "home" layout is as if there are  three cards on a table.
"You", "All updates" and "Inbox".
This helps focus whenever we go to the app.

Number two: I find that "linkedin daily" style of updates section impressively drawn out. They could probably use little bit more contrast over the user's comment versus the web contents. Also, when I was sliding through few news pages, back and forth, it felt slightly slower.
Moreover, there is calendar inside the updates section, which I have not used yet.
To linkedin: Do you use Machine Learning to tune up the news section to people? that could be awesomely awesome! ;)

Number three: the inbox, it brings the latest message. Again, just brings the items in focus.

It is a good app, and thanks to linkedin team for a good app. Keep up the good work.

Subscribe to Active Nepali Blogs by Email: Hamro-Circle

Hamro-Circle provides an easy access for updated blogs from active Nepali Bloggers around the Globe. I am thankful to so many adorable people for the positive response and acceptance of Hamro-Circle and the associated Google Widget.

It gives me a great pleasure to announce that now we can subscribe to the feed in hamro-circle by Email. Since the feedburner is designed to gather only some words from the first paragraph of posts, I hope no one will be upset about his/her blog is being sindicated to Email.
To me it is really nice feature that I will get updated blog titles/post summaries to Email everyday through Feed burner.

Please subscribe to Hamro-Circle Feed by Email.

The defect at the moment is the fact that Email feed delivery is set at mid-night EST. Which makes me get it after the delay of a day. Sometimes it feels bad to be in the last of the discussions. However, I still try to convince myself that is OK as I am not completely missing the juice. I mean the post is fresh and alive after a day. :)

Please subscribe and post your experience in comment.
Thank You!

A Google Widget for Nepali Bloggers

A google widget for Nepal Bloggers has been created: get one here 
The amazing thing is that it works everywhere from your igoogle page to web page or blog. Simply insert the code, and you are good to go. There are functionalities to modify it. You can change the dimension to fit into your available space. For the time being, it is updated every hour and collects from about 60/70 blogs listed in hamrocircle . This is just an attempt to have a list of active Nepali bloggers who are ready to show love to each other by visiting each other and sharing the views. We know that many sites are not yet listed there. It is still being updated.

I would also suggest joining the hamrocircle in facebook .




We can see that there have been growing market of such blog lists. The first I could find was bloggers.com.np . A huge listing of Nepali Bloggers can be found there. A problem however in there is the fact that many of them have gone into hibernation. Some had only few posts. I can understand it, we are not professional bloggers. Even If we want to be, we end up posting news and claiming to be blogger. Well, not that easy job either. I think being a blogger means something different than posting news.

Thank You every body for using it and giving creative feedbacks. 
 
Special Thanks the first time users.

Please let me know if you are using it!
