Find Duplicate piece of Image and Texual Contents

(Image Credit)
An Indiblogger member name Sourav Pandey was found guilty. He won several Indiblogger contests and recently indiblogger team found that most of his contest winning post were the work of others.. He was a Copycat who used to copy other people's work and presented it in his own blog.

I remember of Kolkata Indiblogger meet, where i jokingly introduced myself as a copycat to its founder Renie Ravin and for a second he was shocked to hear my such voice.

But just think about the situation when Renie found his own contest winner as a copycat. He really felt damn...

So, i just want to tell you that if you are organizing an online contest for creative people then always do investigation before releasing the winner's name.

So, how can you investigate about it in such a vast world wide web?
If you are thinking the same then i have the solution for it..

You can use the below online free tools to investigate whether the submitted works are real or not..

For Writing Work:
Duplicate writing work can easily be identified with these below tools..

Copyscape: If you want to know whether a writing piece is a copy of others work, then copyscape is a best solution for you because copyscape search throughout the web for the duplicate piece of any textual content.

Search the Phrase over Google: You can pick up a phrase from the writing work and search it over Google to Find the Duplicate content of it..

For Image Work:
If you have received any sorts of Image work then don't worry because you can even search for its duplicate.

Use TinyEye: This web tool is very helpful to search for similar image over the web. It uses its hi-tech image detection technology to find the images throughout the web.

Last thing, i wana say you - "Wake Up!"

Create a Story using Social Media

Here I found an interesting site called Storify, which allows you to create stories using social media. Only with little bit of good presentation of the tweets, videos, images and descriptions.. you can create a wonderful story.

This site is very useful and easy to use. All you need to do is search the topic over different social media like twitter, facebook, youtube, flickr, google, web links and storify itself. Collect the information from them and drag it over a single page.
Add some description and some textual information for making the story more spicy... That's All! You've created an informative story.

Now, you can even embed the story over your blog post and tweet it out to your followers or share it over facebook... Do whatever you want to spread your story.


I really loved this Site... Nice concept for realtime story sharing!

Know about Google Trends for Traffic

Some blogs are living with trendy traffics. Specially, the news, jobs & result notification blogs.

If your blog is little bit old and you maintain a good frequency of update then you can easily drive traffic from Search Trends.

Articles related to the Trendy keywords are treated as realtime result, so google make a quick listing of the recently published articles of that subject on the web.

How to Identify a Popular Trend?

Just keep your eyes on the trend page for knowing the latest search trends, but all the trends listed on that page are not so popular.. Therefore, you can identify the most popular trend with its "Hotness".

We can measure the popularity of the trend keyword with its "Hotness rating".

There are Three Types of Hotness Ratings:
Volcanic:
This hotness shows that the Keyword is being searched most. Thousands and Thousands of People are searching for this Keyword on Google.
On fire:
This Hotness Keyword popularity is good but not like the Volcanic Hotness but still around 8K people may be searching with this keyword.
Spicy:
This hotness shows that the keyword is little bit popular and 3K+ people may be searching with this keyword.
Medium:
This hotness shows that 1K-2K people may be searching on this keyword.
Mild:
Few of hundreds of people are only searching for something with a trendy keyword.

These above hotness are arranged in Higher to Lower list, when listed over the Google Trend Page (http://www.google.com/trends).

I tried my Best to explain you the hotness Popularity, by comparing it with the number of people searching.

So, keep creating quality content on the trendy subject for reaching thousands of traffics.. Just keep in mind, with trends you can only gain traffic not readers, therefore always try to attract real readers with your well written quality contents.

Six Sense Technology in Ipad. Just Imagine!

In 2009 TED conference , MIT researcher Pranav Mistry has demonstrated Sixth Sense Technology. With this technology, we can interact with the computer through our fingers.

Sixth Sense is an attractive technology, and its total hardware costing is under $350 and all the software will be an open source.

Just imagine, if this technology could integrate in iPad... then, all the workings may be done in a screen floating on the mid-air.

A Los Angeles film student Zach King, with his video editor, created a neat video showing iPad screen floating in the mid-air and he is interacting with it very easily. He did a great Job! Lets wait for the Future- And it is Not at all impossible.

When i get new Ideas? and how i keep them Alive?

You can't force your mind to get new ideas whenever you want.

Simply No one can... not even the Extra Brilliant People.

No one can force his mind for new ideas because ideas come when your mind really wants it.. And your mind seeks for new ideas when it is in a stress free environment.

I usually get new Ideas when i'm bathing - My Bathroom is my Idea Generator and i get some awesome ideas daily while bathing.

I get Ideas when i'm in my bed to sleep - Before i go to deep sleep, i encounter with some random ideas... Sometime it takes away my whole sleepy mood.

The reason, i get new ideas at these two particular place because of the stress free environment. In other word, you can say that a Stress Free Environment is the fuel of Creative Idea Generator.

But ideas stay in my mind for a less period of time, so i quickly note them down on a notepad or a mobile device (whichever i find near to me).

Ideas comes in bulk, so it is difficult to remember every single idea. Therefore, noting of ideas quickly when it strikes your mind, is the best way to retain it.

Brief Note:


When i get new Ideas?
1.) Bathing Time
2.) Sleeping Time.
3.) Coffee Time (Extra)

How i keep them Alive?
1.) Noting it down in a Notepad.
2.) Noting it randomly in a Whiteboard.
3.) Note down the ideas in Mobile Devices.

Sources of Information for your Next Post Idea

For a blogger, the most difficult part of blogging is collecting information for his next blog post. Without new information, you can't write unique content.

Every blogger have their own news sources. They keep on visiting those sources for some hot & unique information on the subject they love to read and write. Even, i have my own sources of information from where i gather news on daily basis.

Without it, none of the blogger do have anything to share with readers? So, always keep some fixed information sources from where you'll surely find atleast one unique stuff.

Let me share about how i collect information, so as to write post on daily basis..

1. BuzzFeed.com - This site helps me to collect buzzing viral videos, images and news. These awesome daily viral stuffs are for my twitter follower, who are always waiting to retweet those tweets.
BuzzFeed creates hundreds of content daily because it is contributed publicly.
Even, if you have a humor blog or an entertainment blog, buzzfeed can be one of your best source of content.

An interesting thing about Trending Topic is that, your blog post can get a quick listing on that search result because google looks for the real-time result for trendy keyword.

3. Google Alert - This tool is used by most of the niche bloggers. That means if you are concentrating on a single topic, then you can set alert on few "Keywords" to keep on tracking about its news over web and when any news is published on it, you'll be the first to be informed through email alerts.

4. Expert Blogs - I read them a lot.. If your blog is all about solving deep problem of a particular subject, then you can read the expert's blog to keep yourself updated about their research.

Your observation and Explanation can be your next blog post.

Blog Post after Death! - An Important day in Blogging History

First time in Blogging History, a man published a blog post after his death. The Last only post of his life.

Derek K. Miller, from Canada was an active blogger since 2000. For 11 years, he was a web writer and today its all ended. This Active Website is now a Web Archive.

He was actually suffering from Cancer, that cause his death.

Even, his last post was written by him, may be few days before May 3, 2011.

He Started the post with Heart Touching Words:
Here it is. I'm dead, and this is my last post to my blog. In advance, I asked that once my body finally shut down from the punishments of my cancer, then my family and friends publish this prepared message I wrote—the first part of the process of turning this from an active website to an archive.

His Last Words about the World (Last Post):
The world, indeed the whole universe, is a beautiful, astonishing, wondrous place. There is always more to find out. I don't look back and regret anything, and I hope my family can find a way to do the same.
My deepest condolences go out to his wife, children and family.

How i Send Back my Defective Product to HomeShop18?

I had shared my bad shopping experience and now i'd like to share my experience of sending back the defective good for replacement to Homeshop18.

After i have complained about my defective product , they responded me back and gave me a toll-free number of "TNT courier" where i called up for replacing the product..

TNT Courier asked me to give the (Account Code) of Homeshop18 and requested me for providing the order number, product details, the problem with the product and my address. Accordingly, i gave them all the details..

They told me that their man will visit my home between 4-6 pm to receive the product and asked me to pack it up, but the man from courier came earlier than that.. I was really impressed!

The Product Sending for Replacement Process was very smooth and they successfully took it away right from my home..

Recently, I got a call from Homeshop18 about my blog post, expressing sorry for their product quality, assuring me to send back a quality product replacing the previous one..

I added, if they send me a quality product i'll give them a positive feedback.

But i'm still not happy with them because they took away my happiest time. My birthday was on 27th April and i ordered it on 23rd and it's now 2nd may but i don't have my watch in my hand... I sometime even feel like asking them for an extra gift because they took away my happiest time... :-( but my heart resists me to do so...

Soon after receiving my product, i'll let you know about its quality... Stay Connected.
